Well I was hoping to keep this a secret, but it looks like we might be in a tough situation with this Alabama vote. I have a sister in law that dates a tsip. They live in San Francisco, but they were in town a couple weekends ago when this whole helmet clash thing was just getting started. He is a programmer and wrote a script that voted automatically. We hatched a plan to use the script to get tu and A&M in the finals against eachother. Then we would let the horns and ags settle it fair and square. His program is the reason tu beat notre dame and the reason behind their miraculous comeback against Michigan.
His script is capable of sending 10,000 votes in a matter of minutes. We used it sparingly just to make sure our teams won. We didn't want to be too obvious. Now it appears that this is our only hope. He is on the west coast, so he is sleeping. He may have had it sending a few hundred votes every couple hours or so, and that may be why we are still hanging in there. In a couple hours, when I know he is up, I will get in touch with him and explain the situation. Then hopefully he can nuke the hell out of the poll. There should be plenty of time for us to come back. A vote a second is nothing compared to what he can get cranked out unless the servers get overloaded or something. In the meantime, do everything you can to vote as much as possible so that we can stay close.
I will update later and let y'all know if the script is working.

The voting should be open until 2:30 central time. If it makes you feel better, the script was written after we already beat Oregon fair and square. Everyone and their mom is trying to find ways to vote multiple times. I don't see how we are cheating. His script was just better than everyone else's methods.
I am going to try and get in touch with him around 8:00 am Pacific time. That would still give us over 5 hours of voting time.

Make sure you hit him up before he leaves for work, because if the script is on the home computer, that'd be a pisser to lose because he was at work.

An Aggie does not lie, cheat, or steal or tolerate those who do.

In an hour, we might be down 100k votes. It just jumped 30k in the past 15 minutes.
