I think so yeah. My mate just tried and it takes the vote, but doesn't adjust the total

[brendon]

[GC75]

im gunna try something lol

[Shifta]

Bugger, my vid has been pushed to 3rd by yet another Mirage and 4th isn't that far behind . Less than two weeks to go....

[brendon]

possible email mitsubishi to find out if people from your work same ip can vote, cause its obviously affectign your votes.

bloody mirage

[Shifta]

Yeah Brendon, there is an email address on the site and I emailed it last Thursday night. I did it for two reasons. The first to see if it can be fixed. The second to provide an explanation just in case it does look like the same computer is voting.

Edited post: Just got an email reply from Luke from Mitsi's. Unfortunately they can't fix any IT issues at my work so I will keep plugging away. All good though, at least my second goal above was reached I guess!

[damian]

damn, only 7 votes between you and 4th

been voting for all the links in this thread every day, and got Shifta up on 4 other forums

can we print some flyers and drop them from aircraft over the capital cities? ;)

EDIT - Benno just voted - you're now in 4th

[Shifta]

Yeah struggling a bit now . Peeps from work said they'll try and vote at home instead of work but no gaurantees..... . Oh well, will keep pluggin away

[Shifta]

Slow and steady wins the race!

[damian]

maybe in a kids story
in real life ya gotta go flat out, or at least 9/10ths
and finish of course, but slow and steady will only ever get you mid pack

[A112H]

LOL, these new entrants are flash in the pan. I have been voting everyday without fail and I am sure I am not the only one.
Front runners will come and go but those without consistant support will never acheive

[damian]

the guy in third is one of the ones who was disqualified for music.
he'd be winning if he hadn't had that happen

yet another siggy
http://www.mitsubishi-motors.com.au/mic ... tition#925

[Shifta]

Yeah he wasn't top 3 at the time but he was a contender. Good on him for having a second crack. His disclaimer clarifies it was the music that was the problem so I guess that answers that! I'll keep plugging away - disappointing I was 500 votes in the clear at one point!

[brendon]

yeah we'll im votign for yours everyday (sometimes i forget to do mine or the others lol)
I figure your the most liekly to get up there so i'll concentrate my efforts on yours.

Hopefully we can have a big push in this home straight but not looking good

[Shifta]

Thanks Brendon! Maybe the Mitsi gods will throw a vote or two my way

[SIKMA]

Will continue to support you guys! Im aiming to win via most creativity lol

[damian]

yours is gold mate, makes me smile every time I vote for it

[Shifta]

Check this thing out - I'm assuming he meant twin turbo charged judging by the size of that cooler:

My little vid hit 2000 votes over the weekend. Alas, I don't think it will be enough to catch the top 3 but many thanks to everyone that has gotten it this far! The support has been fanastic

[geezer101]

Is it just me or does that pic look like it's been 'shopped?

[Shifta]

ha ha, maybe. But then again, alot of "Auto Salon" spec cars look photoshopped even in real life .

[damian]

still voting and trying to keep the threads on various forums alive...

check this one out - love it

http://www.mitsubishi-motors.com.au/mic ... ition#1094

and this

[Shifta]

A couple of days to go! There are some good vids that have popped up recently. If the comp was 2 weeks shorter I would have held 2nd in the votes but alas, it wasn't meant to be. My little vid is fourth with lots of daylight in front and behind so it looks like that will be the end result. It will be interesting to see what happens after Monday though - I'd be interested to see who gets the Mitsi votes and also to see if there is some sort of audit of all the voting to ensure everyone has been abiding by the Terms and Conditions

[damian]

600 votes.
one day.

bombard facebook to ask everyone they know to ask everyone they know to ask everyone they know...
even if only 20 ask only 20 ask only 20 = 8000 people

the power of a pyramid scheme hey?
you can do this!

[Shifta]

Ha ha, I like you're positivity! The thing is, the top 3 will fight to the end so they'll get votes today too - the gap therefore won't be 600! Actually, I reckon it would be pretty cool just to get 2600 votes - recognition of the mighty 2.6 litre Astron Motor built right next to where I grew up . My old man still lives in Morphett Vale next to the Expressway. When I was a kid the Expressway wasn't there and we would ride out bikes across the paddock and into Lonsdale . You can't really tell from the photo but this was taken out the front of the old Lonsdale Engine plant a while back after it was all closed and locked up:



and while we had both the Colts out that day, I also took this at the local dealer


Fun times . A keen eye will spot that the white 1100f in the photos isn't the one in the competition video! It's actully a 2 door "boot model" that now lives in New Zealand.

[Shifta]

Woah, another Mirage vid has jumped into fifth and is gaining votes at a massive rate - about 150 votes in the past couple of hours at a rough count.....!

[Shifta]

Mmmmmmm, this video has clocked about 600 votes today, is currently fourth ( relegating me to 5th ) and is still going... http://www.mitsubishi-motors.com.au/mic ... ition#1137. The other top vids are getting the normal amount of votes so the owner of this one must be pretty dam popular!

[75wagon]

OMG
That is the worst video I have ever seen.

I voted for it though

Dave...

[A112H]

I thought I was watching Neighbours the acting was so bad.... er I mean good, lol
That really was pretty bad

[Shifta]

Ha ha, the video aside, in the 6 weeks or so I've been part of the comp, no one has polled that many votes that quickly that I have seen. As I said, they must be really popular!!
