Nice try, Butler.
Report reply Bugeaters1 7,445 Posted April 14, 2014 Looks like Neal is going to take it upon himself to vote until his mouse breaks just to show those "hayseeds" in Nebraska just who really deserves this imaginary championship!!! I'm voting as fast as it will refresh. Quote Share this comment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Report reply 49r 10,446 Posted April 14, 2014 Funniest part is all the butthurt Butler fans making whiny comments about losing this vote to a program that they perceive as being inferior to their own is only helping rally Nebraska fans (widely known as a group who are very competitive when it comes to online polls) to continue to push PBA over the top. It's like they're taking this personally. It's just a stupid little poll to kind of kill some time in the offseason, but now because of the comments I'm voting my ass off, LOL!

Report reply 49r 10,446 Posted April 14, 2014 Neb - 55.5% But - 44.5% Also, I think Hinkle is probably a really cool place, I'd love to take in a game there sometime. It looks a lot like the old NU Coliseum to me. Quote Share this comment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Report reply cipsucks 5,074 Posted April 14, 2014 I was going to vote for Hinkle as my way of saying thanks for taking Barry Collier back. Couldn't do it. If we win by one vote, it was mine. Bugeaters1 and 49r 2 Quote Share this comment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Report reply kleitus 270 Posted April 15, 2014 Seriously... pissing off the nebraska fan base on an internet voting poll that we NEVER lose? That's begging for a butt kicking. i'm a little surprised some people haven't written voting scripts with the voting being open now Quote Share this comment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we win by one vote, it was mine. cip, we're leading by about 11,000 votes now, I doubt there's much risk of losing at this point...so if you want to go ahead and vote for Hinkle, I say go for it!

Report reply 49r 10,446 Posted April 16, 2014 Hilarious, the old "they're using BOTS, pawwwwwl" gambit: Everytime I refresh they gain 3-5 votes.... a little fishy.. litterally everytime I sat here and just refreshed for about a minute and not once was there a moment it didnt go up. and literally EVERYtime has been up by 3-5 every few seconds I experienced the same thing you did just now. Really bizarre. Barring a miracle, we're gonna lose. Voting ends tonight and we're down by about 11,500. And lastly, from a board Admin on the Butler message board no less: It's extremely easy to set up an automator to vote for these kinds of things. I guess my question is, if it's so obvious that somebody's set up a bot to vote for PBA, and it's "extremely easy" to set one up, then why, mister Admin, didn't you set one up yourself to vote for Hinkle, just to keep the voting honest and fair? I'm sure there are some pretty bright people who graduated from Butler and are big fans of the team that could whip one up in a few minutes. Or maybe, it's just that more people voted for PBA... Nah, couldn't be. Had to be rigged. Quote Share this comment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
