I entered a local radio station contest to win a lawn tractor. The name of the contest is "The Toughest Lawn" contest. I'm one of the top 10 finalists, and the contest ends tomorrow (Friday). A few people from PC Q&A helped me out with some votes the other day, and it was greatly appreciated. Since then, I fell back to 3rd place :-( We are to the wire here and I need a last-minute push.

Here is a pic of my crummy lawn:


Vote for me here: http://www.999thehawk.com/toro/toro_contest.htm I am Anthony Skorochod.

I'd appreciate any help you may offer. I might add, the current front-runner has more dirt than grass ;-)

I know who you are but for those who don't you probably want to tell them your name so they know who to stuff the ballot box, er, vote for. LOL

Jim.

Duh, I'm a dope. I just edited my post ;-)

I voted for you a "couple" of times. I will vote again in the morning.
What time is the winner going to be announced?

BTW...the Weavers are cheating. Each time you refresh the page, their stats have gone up.

My finger is still sore from voting after your last post.Now I may have to put in a splint.Will keep at it!!GOOD LUCK!:+

I voted for ya. Can I come by after ya win to borrow the mower?

I stuck a few in for ya .... You may not remember but a long long time ago we were trying to embed music in emails. You helped me out. If I recall you helped me with my sig on the old winmag forum too.


Oh yeah... your lawn really is lousy and needs a lawnmower.

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

ok, my vote (ahem) is in.

:-) As of 06:00 EST, I'm back in the lead. You guys are great, I owe it all to you.

"BTW...the Weavers are cheating" - yeah, there is definitely something fishy going on there Darren.

"I voted for ya. Can I come by after ya win to borrow the mower?"-- Sure pauliez, if you live near Pennsylvania ;-)

"you helped me with my sig on the old winmag forum too"-- You sure have a good memory, Les

I don't know when they stop taking votes, but they announce the winner today between 2pm-4pm during a live feed at a local garden shop. I'll let you guys know later if I've won. I'm still worried about those Weavers, LOL.

So what's the tally so far? My security settings apparently are blocking the results being posted as I only get an empty box at the bottom of the page it goes to when the vote is cast.

Jim.

now that's what I call a

Add another one. :-) You had a fairly good lead when I was there so
hopefully you can hang on.

Anthony is falling behind..

Oooo it's getting pretty hot!

Just whacked a few more on there for ya ;)

Well shoot !! I've gotta go to work. Good luck Anthony.

When does this contest end? My fingers are starting to bleed.

Jim.

The Weavers are really, really cheating....

Yes they are, I think they made a vote bot.

It figures. Quick somebody write an anti-vote bot that takes away a hundred votes for each one their bot enters. LOL

Kim.

Top idea Kim!! ;) :D

Drat. Now my password doesn't work either. LOL Maybe it's just my feminine side coming out after reading the wedding dress thread.

How'd you micro-size the the "Reply - "Reply with Quote" line?

Jim.

Who won the mower ???

I think if Tony won,he should paint our sigs on the side of the hood.
}( :+ :lol:

Well people, thanks for all of your hard work, but those Weavers won. Yesterday morning I was well ahead and in the lead (thanks to you guys),but the Weavers pushed past with a landslide sweep in the last few hours of the contest. I was listening to the radio station all day, and they were not heavily advertising it on the air like they were all week. In fact, they barely mentioned the contest at all yesterday. So the Weavers were definitely up to no good. There was nothing I could do because I wasn't near a computer all day (I was at work).

Oh well, it was exciting to say the least. Thanks again to every one for their effort and votes.

AnthonyS

Darn it!!!! I thought you had it.
