Hey guys, can I ask for your help? We entered my daughter Audrey in the 2011 Pediped Casting Call. If you're unfamiliar with Pediped, they are a children's shoe company.

If you would be so kind, we need all the votes we can get. You can vote once per day, now through October 2nd. Here's the link:

Even though you spell your name wrong, Derrell (I'm Darryl), thanks!

Let me guess. You have two brothers, don't you? [Wink]

Posted by Godric 2.0 (Member # 11443) on :

You have no idea how many times I hear that... But only from people over 40.

Did I mention you don't look a day over 25? [Big Grin]

I'm under 40. But by less than 5 years. So consider yourself well avenged.

Hey... I think Newhart was hilarious. Consider yourself complimented on good taste!

Well, after 1 day we are squarely in 2nd place in our category: Flex. Keep the votes coming! If you voted yesterday you can do so again today. If you haven't voted yet, please do!

How do you see this? I scrolled through pages and pages and pages of entries, just in that category.

Also, voted again.

Posted by Godric 2.0 (Member # 11443) on :

I scrolled through all 101 pages last night. That took forever... Oi!

voted!

Does it violate the site's rules to vote more than once per day if you're coming from a different IP address (I mean, there's no way for them to stop it, of course, but if it is officially against the rules and people did it and posted about it here the thread could conceivably be used to invalidate the win)?

Looks like. http://www.pediped.com/castingcallvotingrules.aspx

Good to know. Thanks for looking into it.

In other news, I voted again this morning!

Posted by Godric 2.0 (Member # 11443) on :

Thanks for all the votes guys!

Posted by Godric 2.0 (Member # 11443) on :

We're over 300 now, but we still need the votes to keep coming. I know we've fallen to at least 3rd place.

Even if we don't win the votes, I figure a strong finish will be good, eh?

Posted by Papa Moose (Member # 1992) on :

(Voting regularly -- after the support we got I'll vote for pretty much anyone I know who asks me.)

Posted by Godric 2.0 (Member # 11443) on :

Thanks Papa Moose! Whatever came of that - what was it, family trip through California? - if you posted a follow up, I missed it.

Posted by Papa Moose (Member # 1992) on :

Follow-up was in the voting thread, and linked to a blog. Each day went up as a new page 1, so I've linked here to the last page, and you can read it as it happened if you like. We really did have an astounding time.

If I ever get my act together, I'll finish typing up the unedited version of my journal, then run it past the magazine's legal department, then I'll be able to post it all here. (There's no reason I can think of that their legal team would have any issues with what I wrote, but I understand their wanting to proof it, if only for the sake of current and future sponsors.)
