Panda’s Thumb made it into the finals for “Best Blog Community” in the Koufax Awards. It would be nice if there were at least one vote registered for PT in the final round vote. And have a look at the other final round votes, too, while you are at it.

Seen at Wampum:

Pandas Thumb HAS to be the best community, although it would be good if they kicked out Heddle and Carol - the 21st century’s reprise of the original MASH roles of Hot Lips Hoolihan and Frank Burns.

Except that Hoolihan grew up in later seasons of that series…

Thank you Dr. Elsbery!

Henry J - I was thinking of the movie MASH, where Frank Burns is hauled away in disgrace a straight jacket, eerily presaging what will undoubtedly be the eventual end of Mr. Heddle.

I thought it was just me, but everyone else seems to be having the same problem with posting their comments and multiple posts (votes) are resulting. Either that or the enthusiasm is overwhelming. I guess the PT motto should be “Vote early and vote often”.

Well, you click on “Panda’s Thumb” up in the list of finalists, and that just brings you back here–it’s a link, not a vote.

You go down to leave a comment “voting” for PT, and it never fully loads. You go back and attempt to comment again, and it tells you that multiple comments too close together are blocked. You wait awhile and attempt to vote again and the comment never submits. You…

Someone’s rigged the system all right, but it’s not the PTers trying to vote!

None of posts “fully loaded” which was why I reposted. I gave up and moved on to other things, went back later and saw multiple posts had appeared. I received a server error message trying to post once, but my comment showed up anyway…

I’m sticking with “vote early and vote often”.

Well, PT got a vote from me. The trick is to vote in one category at a time and space them about 10 minutes apart - that way you avoid error messages.

Hello admin, nice site you have! Not much on my mind right now, but it’s not important. I’ve just been letting everything happen without me. I just don’t have anything to say right now.
