PR, I edited this to show the totals along with the marker. If you ever screw up when doing the new recording and accidentally erase some or all of it....you will want this former total to be available for you. Trust me, move the new total forward and use it as a marker just to be safe cuz you don't want to have to start from scratch. xlolx

Not that it would have made a difference fellers but these didn't count due to the reason listed below.

Without those words the post is summarily skipped. There is a story behind it but I'm not gonna get into again. Just wanted to let you know for next time around since it wouldn't have mattered this time anyway.xthumbsupx

[ursus arctos horribilis]

I second this

xlolx

Nice work.

[ursus arctos horribilis]

The poll is up so go vote now. This means nominations, seconds, etc. are all over and they will end around noon to 2p ET every week and the poll will go up right after. Any new guys get involved and vote.

You are a member, get involved and click a button on these.

[RootinFerDukes]

How is SHSU/UR not one of the options? The postponement pushed it into this week.

You didn't nominate it I guess? It's always better to show up early and put your 2 in than to show up late and question why what you thought did not happen there rootin".


I don't think most even knew if it was going to rescheduled or not cuz it was only mentioned by the first guy (Milktruck) and then discarded for Wofford/Furman in the same post.

At that point they were "probably not" playing this week. I would have nominated that game, but you can only go with the games you have actually scheduled for the week....and at that point is was not.

Yup, and at the point it was someone else should have came in and said "Hey, this is on so I nominate" and things probably would have changed.

Coming in after the fact just never works out...

[BisonFan02]

I nominate MVSU @ NDSU.

[Mocdaddy]

Furman @ Wofford

[ursus arctos horribilis]

I nominate MVSU @ NDSU.

[ursus arctos horribilis]

Furman @ Wofford

Not sure on this one....

[BisonFan02]

yes

[wapiti]

Valparaiso @ Montana could be a barn burner.

[ursus arctos horribilis]

Valparaiso @ Montana could be a barn burner.

It sure as hell could considering the way we ended last season. The "Potential vs. Reality" gap with the Griz is dynamic and at times gigantic.xembarrassedx

[ursus arctos horribilis]

WOW! This is a damn tight race right now!

Seems like a good game in the first qtr. xlolx

SoCon Bias is keeping it close. If only a top 6 matchup were an option.

Yeah. Next time maybe you'll get involved and do something to make sure it is.

Show up anyway. Come enjoy the fun in the sun and the crew.

Oh and NDSU vs MVSU will for sure be game of the week material. xnodx

[ursus arctos horribilis]

That was a damn close one.

[citdog]

I have never understood how AGS could have thousands of visitors and yet all but 40 of us are too lazy to click one of two choices for the GOTW.

[ElCid]

Seriously. So many are ready to vent their spleen on so many ridiculous topics, but they can't make a simple vote. Maybe since their team isn't part of it? Or they don't hate one of the teams enough to vote? 😀

Maybe people were turned off because Furman sucks?

Yup, you know how much it galls me. Effort put in all over the place to do **** like this but all you get is bitching about it and then lackluster voting in the polls. I do think the phone apps cause some of the problem from what I remember they don't necessarily show the poll options I think?

I hate to be the comparative "back in the day" guy but god damn it there used to be well over a 100 votes in simple don't care about it things like "eggs...over easy or medium?".

I'm gonna do two more GOTW threads, if there isn't at least 75 votes then I'm probably just gonna stop the damn things.

But I absolutely appreciate those that did a GAF to click a button.xthumbsupx

Lame. Being one who was probably one of the last hold outs on getting a damn phone, I figured it out in about a day. For all those who have had them for years, if they haven't figured it out by now, well, that is just silly. xrotatehx

It should be mandatory for at least AGS poll voters to also vote in the GotW.xeyebrowx

[BisonTru]

I push buttons.....


One thought Ursus is if you or PRob were to start a new thread when the poll gets put up after the nominations that might get a few more phone users and others in general to know it's up.

Was looking forward to watching the Nova game, turns out it's not on ESPN3. Anyone know if there's somewhere to watch it?
