I hope Osprey does not mind,
This is in the forum topic under rescue bunnies.
The more votes they get the more chance they will have of winning, you can vote once a day for as long as the contest runs.
See below, Osprey’s thread.
I entered a photo of Lassen and Denali into the PetSource spring photo contest. If I win, The Rabbit Haven will get $1000. If you have a few minutes, can you vote for them? Right now we have no competition, but I assume other photos will be added as time goes by.
Good idea but there’s no link here!
THe link is in the rescue bunnies page

Thanks Lisa, we need all the help we can get. The dog people are catching up.
i have voted again today, i will try everyday if i can get on (which i will cuz i need my BB fix hehe)
No way will they get close enough to your bunnies Osprey.
Where did that dog come from, he/she is only 4 away from Osprey bunnies, no way is that dog cuter.
i noticed how fast those doggies were catching up. they’re all cute, but osprey’s bun buns are the cutest! they’ll have my vote every day until the contest closes!
I think someone is using multiple accounts to vote. I mean, afterall, it is $1,000 and all you need to do is manage 20 accounts per day to get it.
Buns are 45 in the lead as of this posting.
My 3 spilt personalities just voted!
yes it would be easy for someone to make themselves win, especially for 1000
If you have missed this in the rescue rabbit forum, don’t forget to vote daily. There are a couple of other pets getting close. Do you have a partner ,friend or a relative you can ask or email them to vote, this is for a good cause.
yikes! a cute dog has caught right up… keep voting for the bunnies!!!!!!!!!!!!
I just put my 3 votes in for today! We have over 1,600 members now, if everyone voted just once each day, no one could beat Osprey!
Kathy
Yeah, the dog also has it’s own group working for it. No way it is THAT cute. I’ll have to make a couple more accounts.
Actually, and I”m not suggesting this is the best thing to do, but it seems that there is no verification process in registering. And, what I mean by that is that you can ‘register’ any name or email addy and you’ll still get to vote. It doesn’t even need to be a real email address.
lol i loved that markusdark like.. well im not suggesting this but….. and secretly u are like HEY EVERYONE DO THIS>>> lol
I have tried to get other accounts too, but it won’t let me.
My hubby is trying to get us to split our personalities also lol. I think they are on to everyone doing that, we tried and it won’t let us.
The dog is only 7 behind now.
I hate to say it, but the dog has now passed them. I have written the website people to see if there’s a way they can monitor the IP addresses. I know that some of us have done the multiple voting thing but even if we had to start over again, I think all of us could put the two cuties back in the lead in no time.
done my voting for today! we’re about 6 behind now
Kathy
Great idea markus. I have one account and just vote daily and I would not mind if they started all over again. It really seems like something is really fishy with that dog and how the votes for it “jump” every few minutes when I go there to look. Oh well, it all goes to a good cause, right?
Yes a good idea Markus, I tried to vote numerous times but it did pick up our IP address and it wouldn’t allow us.
Well I made and voted with 4 more aliases, that makes 7, but now when I tried to make #5, it didn’t let me vote. Maybe they’ve caught on.
ohh no! they must be cheating to get so many votes in such a short space of time
ack, I just voted my three and we’re running way behind! I use my personal email, my spam email and work email from the same computer and it doesn’t seem to mind. Come’on bunnies!!
please keep up the voting every day!! we’re falling behind 🙁
In my endevour to get help for Osprey’s rescue group, I came across a nice person that wanted to help by voting, he sent me an email and said he will come to BB for a look. His name is Jeff. So in the pursuit of votes we may also get a new member for BB. 🙂
we’re catching back up! yay! keep those votes coming for the cute bun bun babies
I got us tied up with the dog before I couldn’t vote anymore.
hurray – thanks everyone for all the support and votes!
How are we going in the voting?
Keep going everyone, we are 19 in front. I’m excited.
Did my 5 for today. Dog’s 4 in front.
oooh we’re 6 ahead now! i can tell this will be neck-in-neck until may. go lassen & denali!!!
I can log in multiple times sometimes but not others, I try if it works great if not darn.
Damn this pc wont let me access the website!
Aha … put my vote in!
I’m going to go around the office and ask all my workmates to vote now lol.
I just voted – perhaps now my fiance will vote “himself”
ok – you guys really kicked it up today we’re currently ahead!! woooohoooo! go team bunny!!
thank you everyone, and especially to Osprey for entering Denali and Lassen
hurray for dawn’s workmates and moobunnay’s fiance too
It allowed me to have 5 personalities today.
Us 526, that dog 464. 🙂
Heh, I think this is a funny race between the two of us. Oh, I pulled us ahead by about 4.
ooo noooes! we’re fallin behind again
time to razz some more co-workers or friends to vote!
my vote just made it equal eeekkk
We’re 11 votes ahead now! I tried making a new account at work and it kept telling me I had an invalid e-mail!!! I never voted from my work and I was using a totally different e-mail!
I have only been able to use my work email and my hotmail accounts… 2 in total!
I have just voted … we are only 2 ahead now ………..
Mmmm come on girls/guys.
My multiple personalities just voted again. 640 us and 604 that dog.
the dog is odd looking anyway lol
just voted again!
lisa it is only 622 to us so either someone has removed some of our votes or what? we are still ahead at 622 to 604?
Could of been me miscalculating. I was in a hurry.
I have just used by daughter’s email …. another vote to us.
I just added my six votes for today (afterall, my buns really do NEED their own email addresses!)
632 to 609 for Cutie Faye
hmmm…. it won’t let any of my alias’ sign in today. have they caught onto me? at least i got my one vote in AND we’re ahead (for now). happy voting!
ETA: it seems they won’t let me log back in at all after i vote & logout. rats!
Yup, I got caught too. None of my aliases even exist anymore. They deleted them.
Maybe they’ve gotten wise and now things will be more normal.
Me too but i never created multiple accounts.
I made a new one. I happen to have two laptops at home and a computer, plus a computer at my parents house, plus one at work….they can track IP’s all they want, there will be on alias per computer and I will get five votes a day HAHAHA i win!
Ok, so this might sound dumb but the IP is the computer signature not the internet connection signature right?
hmmm well it let me create a new alias & vote from my desk top comp (i work from my laptop usually) but my other alias’ are still non-existant. maybe because they were all created from this computer, hence the same IP? i dunno bout that stuff either k&k.
The IP number is the computer’s address number. However, when you sign up through an IP Service (such as Comcast or AOL), they assign your computer the IP number based upon their network. So, technically, they could tell that all of the votes are coming from Comcast computers in a certain area however to block them all would be bad.
I’ll try the multiple account thing when I get home, if not, then I’ll just stick with one per computer.
oo noes. I wonder if all my accounts at home won’t work anymore. the two i created from work both worked ok this morning.
What is going on with this dog. 5 minutes ago we were 12 in front and now that dog is like 21 in front.
Us 766 and that dog 744. Don’t forget to keep voting.
It still allows me to have multiple accounts, I can get 5 votes and then it won’t let me.
Lisa I exerienced the same thing and now I went to vote and not only could I NOT sort by most votes, the number of votes is gone that each picture has. I still voted though. I agree that something is super odd with the voting on that dog. I mean what is really the likelihood that 21 people are voting at the same time?
They have changed the voting now, no one can see how many votes the animals have.
i saw that! and of course you can no longer sort by ‘most votes’ either. hmmm. but i did notice after my votes that the buns jumped to be first. i wonder if that happens regardless of number of votes or if it’s a left-over thing from the earlier set-up? hopefully the antics haven’t hurt osprey’s chances if he *does* end up with the most votes! we’ve been neck in neck, so as long as we all keep voting he’s got a good chance
go bunnies!!!
It let me vote 5 of 6 personalities this morning. I wish we knew how close we were!
GO BUNNIES GO!!
kathy
Ditto, I wonder why they took those details off? Maybe they didn’t like people complaining about votes jumping by 21 in the course of one minute. Who knows…
I just voted, it always allows me to vote 5 times, keep voting everyone we just have to beat that mutt.
my five for today are in! GO BUNNIES!
kATHY
it’s really annoying that they took off the counter – but i am guessing they knew we were all voting like nuts!
i still can only vote twice / day… one for each computer. but i really think that the buns may be in the lead now! after my vote is cast is re-orders the eligible pics so that the buns are first in line and then the 2 dogs that were neck in neck while the counter was showing.
my 5 are in and the bunnies are showing at the top after voting and the dog in drag is second
GO BUNNIES!!
Kathy
It’s weird it wouldn’t display the number of votes…I wonder if that’s their way of decreasing multiple voting or if the site is just having problems?
Who knows, just keep voting! I am thinking that they did it to deter people from creating so many accounts.
5 more votes for me. If you can only log in once try deleting your browser cookies.
I believe, without any proof, that after you vote, the position of the photos is the current ranking. So, as of my vote this morning, the buns are in the lead.
Yes, I do love commas.
Hahaha Markus, I had to have someone edit all my papers in university to take out all the commas. I too, am a fan! LOL (I like to put them wherever I’d pause!)
Buns in the lead!
lol… i do the same thing with commas. grammar schmammar. good thing i’ve never had to write papers
My issue is that I actually have a bachelor’s degree in English, so I DO know better but I still like using them to excess.
well extra commas are better than using excessive exclamation points! like elaine in that seinfeld episode! hey! maybe i’ll start doing it too! haha jk (get back to work christine!)
But I love using lots of exclamation marks!!!!!! hehe
I did my 5 votes for today, have you?
I voted! I’vew been voting every day! I gave up on the multiple accounts, it would never let me do it, kept telling me all of my e-mail addresses weren’t valid.
5 votes again today, keep voting everyone.
I wasted one of my votes to check out a theory. And it seems that with all empiracle evidence currently, the pic that’s first after you vote is the pic of the leader. So go buns!
Don’t forget to keep voting, 5 more for me today.
i voted!
Me too! Are we the only ones still voting?
I am worried because it’s quite a while before the end of the competition, people will forget to vote everyday.
We have the crew from The Rabbit Haven voting daily, plus some people from Rabbits Online. We have a good group here too, if we keep it up we’ll win.
i am voting daily!
I’ve been voting every day, too !
I have a bright flourescent Post-it ! note on my computer reminding me. Ya can’t miss it
Excellent! won’t be that long before it’s May, time seems to be flying by. 5 more votes for me today.
Yay! I’m glad to hear others are still voting!
i’m voting every day too! until the contest is over i’ll help bump this thread too. good to keep it front & centre so everyone who can vote will remember. voting is the first thing i do when i sit down at my computer withmy morning coffee
cool that markus tested the theory that the pic with the most votes ends up first after a vote is submitted. i was wondering if whomever you just voted for showed up in that spot & possibly not the leading one. but now i really think it’s true… we’re in the lead! baby faye & sophia must have been getting ahead based on multiple accounts only before.
That’s what I am trying to do, keep it to the top of the threads so people can see it.
5 more votes for me today.
*bumpity bump bump*
Don’t forget your vote today.
I voted how about anyone else?
I put my two votes in for today :o))
i voted too
*bump bump*
It only let 4 of my 5 personalities vote today, but the buns are still ahead of the 2 dogs in drag!
