      Holding in 29th place at midnight. We didn't move in the almost 40 minutes I was voting but at least we didn't drop down either Night Jackrabbits

          Our voting pace went up to 485%,that's fourth on the biggest movers ranking chart.Right behind us is UNC Greensboro (#24) at 470%.Us two,seem to be the only two so far with a chance to slip into the top 16.UALR is already in the top 16 and leading the biggest movers at 9,500%.Biggest movers % is basically comparing Yesterday to Today in number of votes,so it can be misleading.Purdue (2,825%) is comming on strong,but aren't in top 48,so might be too little , too late for them.A&M- Corpus Christy at (# 34) VOTING AT 500% pace,have to stay ahead of them .The two just ahead of us are pretty weak voting schools (i looked at their dailey voting rank #'s,obtainable by clicking on their vote,doesn't count) compared to ours, we should pass them today.Keep voting we seemed to be putting forth just the right amount of effort with enough time to do this........I'll be voting off and on today for as long as i have time to...Go Jacks.

              Biggest movers is only comparing the current hour to the previous. Almost meaningless. Say University X got only 1 vote last hour. If I come along and vote for them 15 times, they'll now be at +1500%. But it's still only 15 votes.

              The two pieces of info to consider are daily rank and daily percent. You guys have been ranked 3rd ever since you got going. And your daily total has gone up each of those days(the dial has been in the green at 7pm each day). Looks like you'll do it again today(7.5 hours to get the remaining 40% from yesterday's total). The only fanbases outperforming you are Arkansas State(1 overall, 2 in daily voting) and NDSU(2/1). And you can't believe the gap between us and the rest of the pack; it's enormous.

                Everyone else is realizing time is running out and increasing their effort too,we have to push harder to overtake people now,let's start putting that midwestern work ethic to good use and bury these guys.We'll have to break a few college spirits I'm afraid, to forge ahead.So be it.

                    Knew somebody was helping out, as I have been trying to catch Chattanooga for the last hour, and knew they were voting too. Next up is Xavier. And thanks to Hammersmith for the continuing explanations. I do believe the top 2 are way ahead of the field, and I think we still have a pretty big hill to climb as a number of the schools between us an 16 are obviously working hard to get to that level.

                      Has anybody mentioned this to the athletic dept. They could send out an email and a tweet. In think that would help.

                        The athletic department did send out a tweet and I retweeted in the last hour. I did vote all weekend since it was raining here all weekend. I will be voting again tonight.

                        Keep voting!!!

                        Go Jacks!

                            It's almost as if you personally are the one putting this thing on...you know so much about the details!

                            Anywho...vote vote vote!
