[cycloneworld]

Voting ends at 11am (or at least in the past rounds it has).

48% Arkansas Razorbacks
52% Iowa State Cyclones
Total Votes: 1721967

We have about between a 52,000 and 69,000 vote lead depending on tenths of percentage points.

I can press the button for Cy, but it won't do anything when I go to vote.

What time does this thing end today?

It's been ending about 11:00 a.m.

 

[Psyclone Brian]

I think it has been stuck on that number for a while. Now, I can't do anything but see the total percentages! I've cleared cookies, changed IP's, used different computers... CBSsportsline seems to be dragging pretty slow too. Maybe everybody & their brother is on the site now trying to generate a push for the last hour.
Which college mascot is more dominant?

Maybe CBS is going to call it. I seem to remember last time it got like this they just called it. But we dont know that so keep voting.

 

[Dave19642006]

I crashed my server at home, and at work voting last night

 

[Cyclonesrule91]

I just checked. It is still 52-48% but the vote count is now at 1,735,039

 

[ljs6756]

How many votes do they need to make up the difference and can they make that up in a hour.

52 - 47 at 10:06

 

[Cyclonesrule91]

They would need to vote 69,400 times more then we do in whatever time is left. The other day when we went from 29,000 to 170,000 in no time at all, I would say it is definitely possible.

Now THAT'S what I wanted to see. They've been steadily making up ground since this morning, Germany-time. Any slip on their part is a welcome sight.

But don't let up on the throttle, guys! :growl5cj:

 

[CyinCo]

I can't get the page to reload after voting. The CBS server is bogged.

 

[Cyclonesrule91]

In the last 20 minutes our lead has gone from 69,400 to 104,426. Way to go fellow Cloney's

Just over 1,740,000 votes and we are leading 53%-47%

 

[yCy]

I can get to the page but everytime I try to vote, I get the "Web Page cannot be shown" message. Good luck to those of you that are still voting! Mrs. yCy

yeah, same here.

 

[Cyano]

I'd say keep trying to vote even if you are getting timed out or error messages, just click ISU, tab, and hold enter hopefully even if you get error messages the signals we are putting into this thing are killing other people from voting as well. Remember, keep voting until we see a results page. This thing always ends at 11am central time, but I wouldn't put it past CBS to let this drag on a little longer just to give everyone a bit more of an adrenaline rush. Hit it hard, ev'ry yard for I.S.U.!

 

[herbiedoobie]

Everyone DOES realize that while we're ahead, that overloading their servers is the same, if not better than voting for Cy, right???

While maybe true, I wouldn't say such things - getting close to the gray area in the contest

 

[Wesley]

53 to 47 with 1,741,341 total votes. Overloading servers is better for us. We are letting the air out of the ball. 13 more minutes.

 

[Cyano]

According to results I just saw and last reported results it only jumped 1000 votes from 10:25 to 10:40. Who knows what that means?

 

[herbiedoobie]

I didn't mean stage a DOS attack, I meant KEEP VOTING whether you can get through or not! Clogging their lines with LEGITIMATE VOTES isn't a problem. And, who knows, perhaps our votes are getting through and we can't tell but DON'T STOP VOTING!!!!
