I have a bot running that is giving Notre Dame and FSU votes in the Blimp poll (Where will SN send the Goodyear Blimp? - SportsNation - ESPN).

Clemson was winning by a whole lot earlier but I don't want Clemson or UF to get the blimp so I will make sure Notre Dame wins this. You can count on the Goodyear Blimp at that game.

I'm going to make it so ND wins, FSU comes in second and Clemson in a distant third.

Where was this guy when we did the tradition pole? Lol. You know how many times I manually voted for ND... To many. "Chroming" can get boring after the first 10 min.

Um...since he is a FSU fan, I'm going to guess he was making the bot that kicked the **** out of us in that poll (not pole). Also, I hope this guy doesn't see any of my "Florida State is the most overrated team in the history of sports" rants before he gets the bot up and running. I like blimps.

Is there anyway you can create a bot that will rig the 2012 election, or are blimps the extent of its powers?

68% LOL Who is this masked man?

He is the Hero of the Day.
haha

The little airport here in Lock Haven (was once Piper Aircraft's HQ) sees quite a few blimps through the warmer seasons. A lot of refueling stops and overnights.

Next time I see one I'll hit up the airport bar and chat them up.


But as Domers...do we condone cheating to win?

Only when it doesn't involve swift, repeated and unnecessary kicks to the groin or when claiming triple score points when it's only a single point square.

...otherwise, GAME ON!!!

I wasn't all that serious about the last line of my previous post.
Get that blimp!

Damn you!! I've actually applied to be an electronics tech on the blimp, twice in the last 3 or 4 years. Here I thought maybe I could get an "in" with someone on the crew!!!

ChrisGSO - you know we were cussing you during the tradition vote don't you? We spent hours punching away while you were "teching" us.

To make up for our hours of suffering, can you collect all of the fractions of cents that are calculated each day that go uncollected, accumulate them worldwide and deposit them in our accounts.

Thanks in advance. Go Irish Envy!

For what it's worth, y'all started this whole bot thing. Notre Dame had averaged about 30,000 votes per matchup while FSU averaged about 40,000. It appeared FSU was going to win when all of a sudden, overnight, Notre Dame jumped up to 90% and the total votes were over 200,000. We then created a much more powerful bot and the rest is history. There were over 2,000,000 votes in that poll and Notre Dame had close to 400,000 of those.

Semifinals: (1) Notre Dame vs. (4) FSU - SportsNation - ESPN

Actually I think it was admitted that it was some Nebraska fan that rigged it for us to win or something...
