Q102Philly @feraltwirler This is not a hack or a bot. Our readings show there is OVER 800 unique people on the page voting RIGHT NOW! Can u pass along? Sorry but even with 800 unique people on the page voting -- it is impossible to cast enough votes to move it this fast. These must be autobots who are rotation IP addresses. I hope they figure it out. These online polls are too easily fooled for my taste -- but I am angry and now voting! |

You know it just cracks me up that performances can be identified by a small nuance in a dance step in a particular song.....does he even realize?! Slapdash, That is so true. And particularly so for the Idol performances. Back in the day, once those vids became available, I watched them over and over and over and over. Every little nuance of PTFM, MW, ROF, etc. etc. Such fun! I am so hoping that the upcoming tour will reap as many memories! |

It's not the one I'm thinking of but IT'S A GOOD ONE! Thank you. The one I remember seeing was shot from outside and you could see Adam from the back and side right before he started singing. I've always wondered what he could have been thinking knowing he'd have to walk down through all those screaming fans. It was a very exhilarating entrance to watch cuz he got such a great reception. I was at both the Hyannis show & Cohasset show. I cannot even begin to explain the thunderous cheers of excitement felt at the opening in Cohasset. Of all the shows I attended THAT was the loudest, most exhilarating entrance! The place literally shook & the the noise level was deafening. As much as I loved the stair entrance, I must say the entrance at these two shows, walking down through the aisles, added so much drama to the opening. I only video taped the encore in Cohasset, but I did tape the opening at the Hyannis show. The tents were identical so you can get the idea of what the Cohasset entrance was like. Getting goosebumps all over again! I watched them over and over too. It was just thrilling to see him strutting down aisle. You know he had to absolutely love it! You were so lucky to have been there! |

Q102Philly @feraltwirler This is not a hack or a bot. Our readings show there is OVER 800 unique people on the page voting RIGHT NOW! Can u pass along? Wow.. umm and how many of those would be us? ??? ETA is this a losing battle? :-/ I live in Philly and listen to Q102 all the time but after a certain point I do not think these type of polls are worth the effort involved. Q102 has a bracket poll running all of the time. When this is over they will be on to the next one and who is going to remember or care who won this one? The takeover has the reward of getting Adam played on the radio, this has no real benefit for Adam or his fans. I say it is time to relax and enjoy the rest of your Saturday night. |

I really think we are underestimating Avril to assume that she would never win this poll unless it were really 'ALL' about Adam...and his haters. Avril has been an internationally popular young person's star for 10 years...she is huge in Japan and the rest of Asia particularly...has 3 X the twitter fans Adam has....has sold millions of albums.....yadayadayada. I do not like her music but it is hubris to make every poll about Adam or Adam haters...and may be a bit of why we tend to anger some other star's fans. Ah, but you're looking at this logically, and IMO that's a mistake. These polls aren't logical at all. By your reasoning, neither Adam nor Avril would be in the final round ETA: Looking at Avril's competition in the earlier rounds, I'm not that surprised she made the final - she didn't face off against the biggest guns). Lady Gaga and Justin Bieber would not have been knocked out in Round 1. Adam would have never gotten past Katy Perry. And David Archuleta would have never won that Q102 "Sexiest Man" poll. I mean, seriously? Given that result, I'm shocked that Jordin Sparks was able to beat Archie in this poll. But it brings up my point...Idol Fans Are Trained To Vote. AI alums always do well in the VH1 video countdown for the same reason. And AI resentments die hard. Plus, as has been alluded to, it isn't just rabid KA stans who hate Adam - it's also rabid Cook stans. And rabid Durbin stans. And the list probably goes on. It would not surprise me at all if there is a very significant anti-Adam vote in addition to the pro-Avril vote accounting for this result, particularly since I didn't think her most recent era was a huge success (although I don't follow her and could be wrong about that). |

Those numbers have not EVER changed. They've been the same for at least 3 or 4 days, and that's more than a little odd. |

I just tweeted Q102 and told them that I'm giving up on their poll because the other side is cheating. There is no way the percentages could change that quickly given the total number of votes they must have by now. I just want them to know that we're aware of what's going on even if they pretend otherwise.

I can tell you from recent experience.... it would take a couple hours.  But.... yes, holy crap!! Caution: All activities may cause side effects, but watch extreme amounts of GNT is known to have many major side effects. Check with your doctor if any of these most COMMON side effects persist or become bothersome when watching GNT: Total absorbsion; need for large quantities of wine or other alcohol; dizziness; dry mouth; headache; loss of appetite; nausea; nervousness; restlessness; trouble sleeping; pleasant taste; weakness; weight loss (I wish!).And I was thinking it was my thyroid.  Now I know. Too much AFL. (Never!) |
