first of all...will this work? does kevs machine actually do the trick?

only one way to really find out, and thats to watch the show.

i hope im wrong, but i honestly think that if we get enough votes, trl wont play the video anyway...something just tell me they wont play it.

so, all you kids out there with mtv, let us know what happens. or face excruciating penis-pinching techniques.

I actually set my VCR to tape it today. me is a big dork. but who knows? one record company was giving away free trips to fans that voted for the Puddle of Mudd video [with the eloquent line "I love the way you look at me, I love the way you smack my ass"] so we're just leveling the playing field now.

For number two Carson said: "Well we got a huge surprise for you all... This was completely unexpected. I can't believe it, but I guess this is good news..." and by this point I was basically jumping out of my chair, "...for Mandy Moore fans, cause her video Crush is at number 2!" {insert vomit noises}
 
How many people ran the AutoVoter? We should've had around 50 or so. Hmm, well, let's wait to see Kev's diagnostic on the situation.

My VCR's tape ran out at the point where Carson said "We have a big surprise for you all...." and I came running here to see what happened. Maybe we should move to Stuck and get beat the hell out of mtv.com until we get it on. Also, I think they might weigh the votes with phone calls so some of us may need to make those throughout the day or the night before or something. Argh! and there was that close call video that I had never heard of. What the......?

i also had about 20,000 votes. If 20 of us did that thats 400,000 votes. I think thats enough!!!

How many fucking kids can vote for mandy moore!!!

Alright, so Thursday's TRL is two hours long as a preview for the Video Awards. So.....starting at 5pm EST today turn the thing on and let it run all night. People it won't be that hard. If we still can't get the video on, it will just prove that TRL is a conspiracy.
