voted... he's still at 75%
Danny and me, Danny and me,  Danny and me and the sea,
Bobbing out of Pleasure Bay, the islands on our lee;
Spectacle, Georges, Gallops, the sun-wash on the brine
Castle Island where Skovo danced a bear-dance in bear-time.
The Golden Boy has chosen, I know what I will be
Danny and me, seanchai, Danny and me and the sea.

I crashed the results page (overflow error in VB!)

Jake was 77% close to 78% before the error occurred.  :)

 ;D Thomas. I went back in and clicked away but it appears it's still busted!  :)

Ha ha - tried to vote in this but got the error you all described....scary thing is, I know what the error is and I think it's your fault for causing it.

See, the program that they're running behind the website has a counter in it, obviously, so they can display the results. But their code isn't very good, because that counter is an integer - which in computer speak is a number less than 32,768. Since you've all been voting multiple times for Jake, that number has been exceeded....and the program has crashed!!!

What they should have done in their code is had the counter as a long - which would allow you all to keep voting up to something like 2,147,483,647 times!

And now I'll go back to my sad geeky life as a programmer and leave you all alone ;)

He was, as an actor and a professional and a human being, one of a kind

Charles Roven, accepting Heath's BAFTA.

This award tonight would have humbly validated Heath's quiet determination to be truly accepted by you all here — his peers within an industry he so loved.

You and me together
Through the days and nights
I don't worry 'cause
Everything's gonna be all right
People keep talking
They can say what they like
But all I know is everything's gonna be all right..

I doubt it will get fixed, to be honest - they'd need to change the code behind their site, and they probably don't normally get such a high number of votes so it's probably not worth it for them.

Yes, NoReins, I am afraid you are right.  This is probably why they ignored my request that they fix it!  :)

Didn't Jennis say that this is renewed monthly ?  Or was that some other poll? 

If renewable, I suspect that they will reset it at some point.  So let's keep it open for now.  :)
