ROTSvTDKR is now over 4mil (2 minutes later) 5mil (10 minutes) 6mil (41 minutes) 10mil (49 minutes) 11mil (67 minutes, 12:52pm Central) 13mil (3:32pm Central) 30mil...
I propose a new game. Get enough votes for ROTS that the bot drives up the vote count, and there are more votes than the population of Earth.
Edit: I find the time and count fascinating, hence the edits.
Edit2: Ok, so roughly 7:30 minutes per 1 million votes has been consistent since I started 50 minutes ago. That's an.. interesting progression. Posted 11mil at 12:35pm Central.
Edit3: 13mil at 12:52pm. 17 minutes to gain 2 mil. My previous times were rough/rounded estimates, just for fun. I guess this is too, but just looking at it closer now. So ~8:30min per million votes the past two million gained. I also note that the other three face-offs are all sitting in the 700k's currently, which is an oddly even count of its own for all three to have the same votes (and some of the most unlikely close matches - I can understand RotLA getting close to Star Wars, but Nemo vs RotJ?). I feel like the 700k's represent the fan bases, pro- and anti-Star Wars mainly, flocking to vote for it all, and there's something much more odd going on with the RotS v TDKR. But that's my own random thought/guess, not backed by anything.
Edit4: 30mil at 3:32pm, 2h40m since my last update at 13mil. So somewhere around 9.5min per million, or a bit over 100k per minute. It's also been so STEADY of an increase. It isn't like there's a spurt as this group catches wind of the vote or that brigade goes click-happy on it. Has there ever been an online poll that received more votes? Probably so, I don't imagine our little war over a silly RT poll takes the cake, but I still find few polls/petitions and such rarely get that much traffic. Also, while we're sitting around 30 millions in RotS v TDKR, the others are all around 1mil. Anyway, all kind of interesting to watch with the various reactions from people.
