BIG FAT BOWL CHALLENGE

Reminder: The first bowl game of the bowl season is this coming Saturday, December 20th. Don’t forget to join our Yahoo! Bowl Pick ‘Em group here – Big Fat Bowl Challenge. Group ID: 6220 Password: extreme. Winner gets a “Willy Korn” poster. Fill out your pick set if you haven’t already.

Second, a quick note about commenting. We want our readers to comment early and often. We also would like our readers to set up an avatar unless you want the grizzly visage of Uncle Phil staring lustfully at your comment. Set up an avatar Gravatar here. Give it a couple hours, and when you comment on our site and list the same email address your Gravatar is attached to – BAM! – customization.

Pitchfork Ben Tillman from The Chicken Curse has asked for our help and yours in overthrowing WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Ric Flair. Our favorite sports radio show, Prime Time with the Packman, is holding a contest for Co-Host of the Year and Clemson’s own Brenston Buckner is up against that Sakerlina fan Ric Flair. Vote and vote again as this poll seems to have no one-vote-per-user limit. After you vote for Buckner that option will disappear, just vote for another bracket and it’ll pop back up. VOTE HERE.

I have work to do, but NO. I slave for you, Block-C readers.

    I hated Rick Flair as a wrestler too. The Nature Boy really needs to rethink that career move of becoming a Cock fan. Plus it looks like all that HGH is making him what some people might refer to as mentally retarded. WHOOOOOOO!!!! Now back to my finger painting!

    did anyone else see the guy on espn’s bowl mania that put 20 confidence points on us? obviously he doesn’t know about willy korn, or he would have put ALL of his points on us. period.

    after you vote for Buckner, you don’t even have to select another person to vote for (unless you have another favorite you would like to vote for, of course). Just click on the “vote” button from another bracket without actually voting and you will save yourself that extra 100 or so milliseconds of voting time.

    I got a macro going to vote as it looks like they don’t do any ip checking. Used a Firefox plugin called iMacro to do, pretty simple. Download the plugin, restart firefox, set the folder “macros directory” or just click “store data in profile folder”, click ‘rec’ tab, hit record and go through the actions of voting for Buckner then someone else. I’m also voteing for Cornbread Maxwell because he is the shit. Also do this about 3 or 4 times so you know it is going to register a couple times per loop. Hit stop then save. Go to the playback tab and set the number of loops and hit the ‘loop’ button.

    Very nice, Vinny.

    It pained me to vote against the Naitch’ but I did. Even though he’s a cock fan, he’s still the man. Not surprising that he doesn’t get much love from the volleyball fan club.

    “…I left ‘em with stars in their eyes, and cream between their thighs…” Ric Flair

    @7 yea, that’s pretty creepy, he’s like 60 by now

    Hey everybody, thanks for voting for Buckner and thanks to Chili and Willy Mac for the linkage. I know internet polls are about as useful as a spelling test at USCjr, but you know me; I like to stick it to those guys wherever possible.

    and CUvinny – damn son. Props to you. I still don’t understand the ‘puter tech you be talkin’, but keep it up.

    got me a macro up and running as well, thanks for the tip Vinny

    Ric Flair is a creep, and he’s a pretty shitty human being.

    He’s the owner of a demolished home because of all of his improprieties. Must be awesome growing up with a dad who writes about his experiences of snorting cocaine off of stripers’ boobs…while he’s married to your mom.

    He ranks right up there with AIDS.

    his son used to wrestle in the middle school/jv tournament at BHP every year and he’d go there and sign autographs. i never understood why my friends thought that was so cool. I thought it was way more awesome when Radio started coming with the TL Hannah squad

  13. 13Willy MacNo Gravatar on Dec 18, 2008 at 11:29 pm:

    I think we just single handedly rigged this competition…

  14. 14CUvinnyNo Gravatar on Dec 19, 2008 at 12:44 am:

    I had multiple instances running while at work, quick math says I put out about 60,000+ votes.

    Wonder if they noticed.

  15. 15Pitchfork BenNo Gravatar on Dec 19, 2008 at 11:38 am:

    I seriously just laughed out loud in my office.

    Do you guys know for sure if those Macros work on these contests? If so, I can’t wait to listen to listen to Primetime on Monday.

    If anyone has the ability to capture the streaming audio of the announcement, i would appreciate getting it. I’ll be at work or driving home. I don’t think they podcast entire shows.

  16. 16Willy MacNo Gravatar on Dec 19, 2008 at 12:08 pm:

    Tillman, keep us updated of the dates this goes on and we’ll skew the polls.

  17. 17CUvinnyNo Gravatar on Dec 19, 2008 at 12:15 pm:

    The for sure worked. The pages reloaded after each submit so they got posted to the server.

  18. 18Pitchfork BenNo Gravatar on Dec 19, 2008 at 11:07 pm:

    @16 – will do. They announce the final four on Monday the 22nd, so y’all keep up the voting until then. Supposedly you can vote all the way up until they make the announcement.

  19. 19PenthouseTigerNo Gravatar on Dec 20, 2008 at 12:22 am:

    well between my 4000ish votes and vinny’s 60000, i think we just dominated.

  20. 20Willy MacNo Gravatar on Dec 20, 2008 at 12:34 am:

    I think… we just attacked WFNZ??? We screwed up an extremely meaningless contest at the very least. Good jarb fellas. Awesome.
