The Gunnies - the vote bleg continues!

By The Armorer on February 6, 2006 | | Comments (6)

We didn't win in the first round but we apparently snuck into the finals as a wildcard.

We're still gonna get creamed. Oh, sure you could vote for these guys... Kim du Toit, Oleg, John Lott, Mr. Completely, Head's Bunker, Alphecca, Smallest Minority, mAss Backwards, or the Anarchangel.

But we think you should vote for us! Early and often! <===Click that link! We think The BMG Trophy would look good on an Arsenal Bookshelf... but the only way *that's* gonna happen is if I steal it - unless you guys get busy.

We do some good stuff in this category - today's bit on the PIAT for example... how often d'you see those on any blog but this one?

And, as I said in yesterday's bleg - we've done some good stuff in the past, including the second installment of the Ammunition posts: Ammunition, Part the Second, a tale in three parts (thus far), and I'll link to other bits and pieces of past work as justification for the vote blegging.

But thanks is due to Countertop Chronicles for running this - and unlike the Weblog Awards - there's more than just pixels for a prize!

I give up. No matter what time I vote or from which computer I do so, the roumd is either over and Kim won or the Castle's hors de combat and my vote counts toward Kim's total. In the immortal words of Lou Costello, "I'm so confused..."

Just vote. Vote once a day. Everyday between now and the 15th. Don't worry about how it works. What you see, when you click the "next round" stuff, is how the voting would progress under their system if *no* other votes were received. Just VOTE. For us, of course!

Oh-kayyy... Seems like an oddball way of doing it, but I'm oddball enough to go along with it. *right foot nudging 12-foot pole out into view to see who picks this one up*

Oh man, I can't stand it, seeing John with his little cup, asking for votes...I voted you number one, okay? *offers him a drink* There, that better? You are at 31% instead of last.

Just voted again. 1. JoA, because he's been nice to me, and because of his amazing basement. 2. Anarchangel, because he's really sharp and was brave enough to admit to being a dissociative sociopath on the 'net, out in front of God and everybody. 3. Alphecca, for being a gay gun nut from Vermont. 'Nuf sed. 4. Smallest Minority, for being obsessively eye-glazingly verbose and exhaustive. 5. Kim, for having egregious, (outside the flock) well-written opinions which are kinda like mine, except, well, OMG! 6. Oleg. Sorry, son, the girl-pix are cute, and all, but I had to degrade yer rating for being too, well, *normal*. 7. Heads Bunker. Not real familiar with his ouevre or idiom, but I hear has advice on picking good, cheap Kalashnikovs. 8. Mr. Completely. Also unfamiliar, but he's running the thing. 9. mAssBackwards. He's this low because I think he's silly to remain there after the fight has been lost. 10. John Lott; last because he looks creepy on camera. (Reminds me of me.)

I voted at work, I voted at home. Remind me every day. I have to get in the shower and get ready for my date with Jack Bauer at 2100.
