Seen as though you sound like you really want your vote to count (and be counted soon) I've added it on the list for you :finga:

Should be entertaining, to say the least.

Seems I won't win any popularity contest, as I'm just the guy working his arse off day in and day out, but that's ok. Win or lose, I'll continue to do as I've always done and let my numbers do the talking.

Sorry Kappage, you need to be counted as an active folder for your vote to count:

I'm not sure what the cut off time for having last returned a WU to be counted active is, but its obviously less than a month.

i am folding under the name Stevoid, as you can see in my Sig, You may wonder why, this is because the only way i could get my brother toi fold was to use his name....

I've been sitting back watching who's voting for who and figured I'd give my vote to whoever voted for me :)
It is now Wed. and no one has voted for me, sooo, I picked Stopthekilling77
He has been Folding for LR about the same amount of time as I have(About 1 1/2yrs)
and he's quite a bit behind me in points so he needs a little help to step it up!

Stopthekilling77 gets my vote!

I hate only having one vote, as there are so many deserving folders that I think should get the kit.

I might just put the names of my shortlist of deserving folders into a hat and pick one at random and give them my vote. :rolleyes:

Since the just before the contest till now, the LR F@H team has regained an entire year loss at Stanford's rankings and even a little higher! If this pace is kept up, LR will break into the first page by the New Year!

The entire team is crowed at PPD over 1,500 and above regularly now.

Way to go everyone, keep it up. LR will break into the double digit 1st page ranks soon.

we are 3.6 weeks from the 99th position, with our nearest trailer at 2 months away. We'll be Top 100 well before the new year... especially with these new goodies just adding to the daily total.

I've asked Nate about Dark_hawk_101 and he's been added to the list.

I've not wanted to decide and do this all week, as like I said before, whoever I pick, there are so many more that I would give a vote for if I could (who as just as deserving of the prize). But I'm going to throw my vote in now so I don't get left with a vote when its a tie-break situation!

I vote for DaIceMan, I know you'll be able to make good use of the system. And goodness knows you've put in the points to deserve a break.
