I'd Like Damien to Win!

[hyperrune]

Hmm, never heard of it. So do buy it or download it or what?

[murfinator]

I agree with everything said here ;D ahaha

[hyperrune]

Uh crushangel, about those 200 votes...apparantly, I heard that the limit is about 190 from any one phone. Have you ever gone past that?

[crushangel]

Haha that's ok I have 2 mobiles and home phone, no problems lol...no I haven't voted that much before...last week I voted about 115 times, that's the most I have voted previously.

Really? I've never gone past that either, but that's weird

Well I won't mention any names. But someone I know spend so far this week $500 of voting on Damien. And she got the bill and nearly died. But yeah she was doing it like for 2 days non stop.

But my point is, does a few people mass voting sway the verdict? If everyone was limited to one vote somehow would we get a more true verdict?

[crushangel]

Wow that someone you know is a legend lol....I thought there was a limit of 190 votes from one phone though?
Jess has the whole of the Northern Territory behind her so if we want Damien to win we all have to vote like crazy....There is no way I can afford $500 worth of votes but I have already spent more than $100 voting oops...I think that's about my limit.
Yeah I think there would be a more fair verdict if it was only one vote per person but that way channel 10 wouldn't make their money lmao.....I guess there would be fans of both Damien and Jess sending in $100's worth of votes though.

VOTE, VOTE, VOTE please everyone as much as you can. It's a good thing we have a few mobil as well as home phone. Working all of them overtime. DAMIEN is worth every cent I've spent and I haven't finished yet.

[murfinator]

Wow! $500? What a champion! I think I've spent about $50 lol

promising about them this night), the weather is a glorious 26 degrees. You're positioned yourself in the best seat in the house (after a fierce battle between husband/sister/brother/wife/boyfriend/girlfriend and dog or cat) and are now seated in the your favourite comfy chair. Sweaty palms caress a glass of Dutch courage (after all this has been a very long journey, you've been there all the way and you deserve it after all the hard work), whilst an abandoned mobile phone lays resting in your lap (last minute emergency votes). Not a sound stirs (not even the cats/dogs who seem to understand something important is about to unfold), except for the faint hush of a cicada somewhere in the distance, the rush of cars and the gentle swaying of trees just outside the window. After 2 hours, your bladder feels ready to explode because you've been too nervous to even contemplate moving. You make a mental note to apologise to friends who've tried to phone you during this time, to try and explain the "don't you understand: Damien! " responses they've gotten. They've just wound up the final walk through nostalgia, one last shot of the judges perched in their towers (Marcia looks about ready to fall over). Andrew "Porn star Farrah" G has finished his last speech about each contestants journey (there's just 'something' about that hair tonight- seems to be even more coiffed than usual) and James has just been given the dubious honour of announcing the winner. It seems like an eternity since he started to say "The winner of Australian Idol 2006 is...." (one more glance at the camera as his nervously awkward hands try desperately to open the envelope with ease). The silence is deathly, James' eyes look even bigger than normal (time to fit in one more quick joke- nothing like drawing this out)...you could hear a pin drop...and finally the moment you've been waiting to hear for the last 3 months:" This year's Australian Idol is....DAMIEN LEITH!"

Visualise this: Sunday 26th "Mo"vember 9:25pm, you can just about make out the night sky with all her majesty of stars (there is something strangely mystical and promising about them this night), the weather is a glorious 26 degrees.

[Neski]

Ahhh yes, that is fantastic but you see I wouldnt be explaining to my friends lol they would either know or start learning! HAHA

[Jim]

Hey that's an amazing idea of what it'll be like on Sunday night. And if anyone bugged me then, I'd say "shut up! Sit down! And watch history in the making." "And also you might learn something here".

[irishscorpio]

Oh my freaking God! Just found someone I know is mates with him......she just sent an e-mail around our entire office to encourage people to vote.
