Keep voting! 

[bijoux]

I don't think my votes are getting counted. I've tried Android - I'm thrown back to the top of the page - and iPad - where nothing seems to happen.

[Morrigan2575]

On Android, if you're using Chrome click on the 3 drops in the tip right of the browser and then check the "request desktop site" box.

[bijoux]

Thanks, I'll try it later.

Update: it worked, @Morrigan2575.

Emily has been dropping steadily. 

[Chaser]

Sense8 has a very passionate following and the actors are asking for votes.  I think they have the edge.

[SmallScreenDiva]

Lord knows Emily will never ask for votes. Looks like Felicity fans are waking up, though. The drop has eased a little.

The captcha isn't working on that one link above. Is that good or bad? LOL

Nevermind captcha is working for me now!

[statsgirl]

I can't even get a captch, which means my vote doesn't count. Boo.

EBR is at 56.3% now.

Also they were cancelled so its fans have an even greater impetus to vote.

[LeighAn]

I'm seeing people on twitter say that Felicity haters are voting in categories against Emily but I don't know how accurate that is *shrug*

Their votes are split - so it'll be tough for them to win. We'll see how they'll fare tomorrow! But right now Melanie and EBR have the edge.

[Mellowyellow]

I don't know that we can beat the Eliza girl if we get to the end! She's got a lot of fans it seems!

Choices include Olicity flashback sex (520)...

I'm tempted to write in "Oliver's stupidity" for biggest shocker.

After 4 seasons, were you really shocked by Oliver's stupidity? ;)

To the extent we got it after 4 seasons? Yes. Considering it took up so much of the season, at least to me...

A season 5 deserved better than this Oliver. 

ETA: my real write-in will probably go to everyone surrounding Oliver instead of comforting Felicity in 509

None of those things were really a surprise.  I can't even remember if Billy dying was a surprise.  I think I'll pick Bunker Sex just cause it's fun to check a box for bunker sex.

I voted for Oliver killing Billy. Billy dying wasn't a shocker but, Oliver being the one to do it, did shock me.

I was tempted to vote for Bunker Sex just because I want Olicity to win all the awards just cause it ruins GATVs life to admit it.

[bijoux]

Wow, she's in a really big lead now. 50,9%. Although I don't doubt that will change.

[insomniadreams88]

EBR is at 35.8% now. Still leading. 

[Angel12d]

Oh wow. I forgot that poll was still going, haha. I just voted though. She's 3rd with 19.9%. 

Edit: Is it bad that I've never heard of Wynonna Earp (or the actress) before though? Is it any good and should I watch?

I looked it up. It's some Canadian show based on a comic book that's described as a sci fi western. Like she is a cowboy who fights aliens/paranormal beings.

Demons.  With a magic six shooter.

This year it comes on after a couple Syfy shows I watch.  I suspect I might actually have liked it.  Lots of strong female characters and humor.  But I don't' want to start in like the 3rd season.

You are not kidding.   She's in last place and I just watched her drop in 60 seconds from 17.4% to 17.1%   

They are voting on mass for anyone but her.  

[lemotomato]

The poll is only 3 hours old, so there aren't a lot of votes cast yet. Any particular group voting en masse right now is going to change those percentages pretty quickly. Eliza Taylor went from 4th to 2nd in about 1 hour.  EBR fans just have to make a concerted effort.

Edited August 28, 2017 by lemotomato

[Mellowyellow]

I've only started voting on and off. Going to binge vote tonight when it's tea time!

[BkWurm1]

The" are you a robot" pics are killing me.  Is everyone having to do a minimum of two each time? 

[Morrigan2575]

I stopped getting them about an hour into the new poll.

[insomniadreams88]

Yes. And I've had to do 4 for my last 4 ... having to click most of the boxes on each and/or getting new ones when it gets to "verify" instead of "next." 

ETA: And now that I've typed that and gone to vote again ... the box just checked itself without me having to click on pics. Three votes in a row. From now on, I'm coming to complain on here if those boxes pop up again.  

Edited August 28, 2017 by insomniadreams88

[Mellowyellow]

Yup usually 2 at a time! I find the desktop better but I'm running around all day so don't have access to one. 

[statsgirl]

Wow, EBR is in last place now. 16.6%

Did you like Lost Girl?  It's from the same creator.

I dropped it for the same reason I dropped Lost Girl, it got too silly and instead of an OPT, there was a hexagon.  I thought the actress was okay though.

The first season's on Netflix if you have that, and want to try it (I haven't watched it - just an FYI).

Yep.  I don't have the patience to deal with it very long. :(

Oh really? Makes sense I guess. I never finished Lost Girl - never watched the final season.  

[Chaser]

She's at 12% now. Every time I vote it goes down.

[LeighAn]

Yeah on don't think we are playing on a fair and level playing field. I saw someone tweet that they watched Melanie whatever her name is gain 1400 votes in one refreash. And as for The 100 and ex The 100 actresses- well we know the Clexas have cheated in the past.

[Angel12d]

I'm not sure any cheating is going on tbh. I think it's just the case that not everyone is voting (fandom tends to be more motivated when it comes to Olicity, not so much when it's just Felicity/EBR or Oliver/SA by themselves, unfortunately) and those who were voting have given up. She's too far behind to get through this round now. 

[BkWurm1]

I don't want to resort to claiming cheating but the poll numbers aren't changing like they had in the past.  They are coming in quicker intervals and in bigger leaps at any one time.   At the very least there is a very active and organized campaign going on for all the actresses except EBR.

[insomniadreams88]

Did anyone ever get "tap the center of X" for the captcha thing? It's the first time I've ever on any poll seen that... 

[statsgirl]

There is something not right going on.  At this point, there has to be hundreds if not thousands of votes cast -- there is no way statistically EBR can be going down by 1 or 2% every time I go to vote.

Roght now I'm just wondering if the people running the site will catch it.

I believe E! typically ignores or sits on the fence about cheating allegations so I don't think anything will come of it. It just sucks that it's disheartened a lot of Emily/Felicity/Olicity fans from voting after everyone worked so hard to get Emily there in the first place :(

[Mellowyellow]

I voted in constant long freaking blocks of time and she plummeted while I was voting as if I were voting against her!

[Sunshine]

EBR went from 10.2% to 9.9% while I was voting so I don't see the point in continuing.

[Mellowyellow]

They voting is simply baffling me! I just went to vote to see what the deal was. I don't see how she just keeps slipping, especially with all the messages on Twitter about voting. 

And why am I getting 4 of those captcha things nows???!!!! I adore EBR but I give up! Especially since her stats go down the more I vote! 

[EmilyBettFan]

There's definitely somehing going on with Thisbe poll. I've never been even heard of this show or woman before and now all of a sudden she's winning? LOL yeah nope.

[statsgirl]

I tweeted to Lauren Piester that there is something wrong with the voting.  It's the best I can do -- EBR is down to 8.7% now.  That's ridiculous.

[BkWurm1]

The way the other three are all pretty close in numbers really is the weirdest thing to me.  EBR started MILES ahead of them in the early hours and then suddenly one person got a huge bump up to 40 percent and then I came back both of the others ones were also neck and neck with the first one to jump while only EBR had dramatically dropped. If it was just one person that was winning dramatically or only a couple that were in a real fight, I think I'd just assume they had a very motivated group but this weird grouping looks really off when you compare the percentages EBR was pulling in comparison during the previous rounds.
