My concern is that last round it looked like we were leading with at 64% right up until the voting page stopped working, and then on the summary page we got 53%. So I wonder if we are "voting blind" or whether the vote really is 50-50.

Right now I want to see decimals – how far are we from 51%? (If that's where we're at.) 

The more we vote, the harder it is to change the %, so I'm not surprised at the stand still.

Since it's weekend, we might be able to increase the number of votes. But so are The Simpsons's fans… 


 

Noooooooooooooooo they did it again. It was 51 to 49 until right now, and suddenly The Simpsons won with 59 to 41… what's happening?

I wish I knew how to quit you.

It was 51% till the last hr where Simpsons got a huge boost to 59%. Sad

Looks like the final match up will be Simpsons vs. Lost.

It's impossible for Simpsons to go from 49% to 59% in virtually no time, and they did the same last round, not showing the "real" votes to us…

Damn. In order to win it seems you need to be a solid 10% ahead because you always drop. ie. House was at 57, Castle at 51, and Community was somewhere in the low 70s. I'm not sure about their voting system either…

Oh well, we gave it our best! We did win the detective drama group, so that definitely sends a message to ABC. Good try guys! :)

Kate: Of course he makes you feel alive but eventually you know he's just going to let you down. So, why risk it?

Castle: Because the heart wants what the heart wants.

NOOOOO we lost. :( Castle 49% to Simpsons.  oh that is tragic. We were so close.  Must've been a major surge by the opposition last minute.

 

Oh well..we know who the TRUE winner is anyhow – Castle all the way. :)

Oh that stinks!!!  That seems like quite a large jump, I have some suspicions about that.  And what does it mean when it say:

Ken's vote goes to: The
Simpsons

"Pitting The Simpsons against
Castle
is like comparing apples to baseball caps: They're both such good,
enjoyable things. If primarily for its long, illustrious history and
ongoing energy, I choose The Simpsons over the charming Castle."

He didn't side with Castle last round either. Almost like his vote counts as 10% or something. Oh well, it'll be just speculations unless someone get the word from Hulu.

What? We lost? But we were keeping a solid 51%! Mental note to self: Check voting when you actually have time to respond and not right before class, as you will need to vent your rage.

I have a Hulu account. While I sent them an e-mail before in regards to the standstill, I have no problem e-mailing them again about the sudden Simpsons surge. Can't guarantee an answer, but at least I can try!

As an actor, I feel like you’re asked to live life as vibrantly as possible.

That's a bummer but we gave a good fight.

I think it's more telling that we knocked off Bones than losing to the Simpsons though.

Absolutely.  This was one of the weirdest match-ups I've ever seen, but for the show that is always referred to 'that new version of Bones,' to beat its older cousin speaks to the freshness of Castle.

If multi voting was allowed, they -Hulu-should have an ISP tracker/blocker type thing on the system.  Was it posted not to multi vote? I didn't see that.  Something is funky in Spain cuz the % seemed frozen for at least 4 days at 50%.

I'll be voting LOST to SLAY the cartoon show.

Actually it would be better to vote for the Simpsons–think about what that says, if they beat out everyone.

Castle: Don't leave town? Don't you need probable cause for something like that?

Beckett: Only he doesn't know that, does he?

Castle: You can *lie* like that? That is so cool…*puts pen to paper*

I was on Hulu (voting for Lost for Best in Show) and clicked on the blog it has about the whole contest. Well, I read something very interesting about how the voting went down.

Each week, Tucker has been making his critical selections, accounting for 25 percent of the final tally for each show.

Now I am wondering if Castle would have won against The Simpsons if Ken Tucker didn't make up 25% of the vote. It was so close that probably when he put in his vote, it pushed The Simpsons for a win over Castle.

Even though I find this interesting and thought I should share this with everyone, Castle is still Best in Show for me! Bounce2   I don't care what the voting tells me.

Well, it seems to me that the best relationships–the ones that last–are frequently the ones that are rooted in friendship. You know, one day you look at the person and you see something more than you did the night before. Like a switch has been flicked somewhere. And the person who was just a friend is…suddenly the only person you can ever imagine yourself with. ~Dana Scully

That's interesting, it would seem his vote was the deciding factor and in his comments he actually complimented Castle, so that's good too.

The round before our lead was large enough that even though he voted against Castle, Castle won. But it should have been totally up to the fans, in my view. But — we have season 3, so who cares :D

Yeah, really! That's incredibly unfair, and we all know Castle should still be in the running. Oh well. Like everyone's saying we got a season 3, and an unfair poll won't change thatSmile
