Do you like tea? So do I?

Archive: 37 posts


I'm taking points from Wexfordian and wondering if you guys in the LBPC community wouldn't mind voting on my photo for a Sweet Leaf Tea contest.

I'm already in fourth place, but I can make third with lots of helpful votes. :-)

Here's the picture:

Also, since we're discussing the deliciousness of tea, what's your favorite kind of tea? I'm an Earl Grey girl myself.

Well I'm trying to vote for it but it's taking a while. Slow internet.

Also I'm more of a coffee person.

EDIT: All done What's the prize for 1st place?

There's actually two prizes:

One prize is a year's supply of Sweet Leaf tea, and me being a southern girl, well. Let's just say we love our tea down in the South, lol!

The Grand Prize is tickets to Lollapalooza which is one of the most anticipated outdoor festivals here in the U.S. Lots of great live bands Wolfmother, The Black Keys, the Strokes, even Lady Gaga (if you're into that sort of thing).

A very eclectic scene.

Thank you so much guys!

SR20DETDOG,

I'm member of the dark roast coffee club myself, especially Costa Rican coffee. That's some good stuff!

That's alright Laina. I know you voted for me in spirit! ;-)

Thank you Mr. Kitty Cat. Every vote counts.

I only need 3 more votes to make it to second place. Four more to make it to first.

Come on guys, you can do it!

Thank you Snrm.

First place came with a lot nudging, prodding, and ferreting. :-)

It would be a nice early birthday present if you guys could help me reach 70 votes lol!


EDIT:

Wow, I already have 70. I wasn't expecting it so fast, ha. On to 80!

I would love to go to Lollapalooza, guys! Don't let me down, ha!

Thanks guys.

I'm sort of in hot water now. The competition is a Twitter machine. I need massive votes to stay competitive. Please vote if you can. I'll soon be #2.

You're right Snrm. The votes update every hour.

White Unicorn is one of the best Wolfmother tracks.

Thank you Gui_Rike,

LPBC for life! *pumps chest*

My competitor, I have to say is WAY better than I am at social networking. I've tapped out just about all of my facebook friends and twitter followers. I'm hanging on by thin string guys, lol! Even my writing group has voted.

The woman in 2nd place has 74 votes. I have 78.

Any tips?

That's a good tip Guy,

Thank you. Phew. All of this is very exhausting, but to re-energize myself. I just imagine that I'm sipping Sweet Leaf tea while listening to some live Black Keys.

Thank you guys.

Thank you so much for your vote Arkei. To answer your question the voter has to do one or the other. If there are too many "suspect votes" I could be disqualified. Mostly, that means if I made 100 emails and 100 twitter accounts to vote, but don't worry you'll be alright.

I definitely appreciate the votes.

Phill_003,

Mac is pretty cute isn't he? lol. I think you're avatar edges him out on the funny factor though, ha!

I have an idea, make a twitter and follow a ton of people, just search random things on the people search on twitter with common names like "Jon,Emily" ECt
Follow all the people that come up, maybe 500 (Won't take as long as it sounds) Most will follow you back so then post the link to your picture on the twitter account and many of them will see it!

Thank you for the tip Snrm.

I actually created a twitter account. I'm going on a mad frenzy to follow tons of people. I'm in second place right now unfortunately. Help me guys, let's make it to 100!!!

Here's my Twitter page:

http://twitter.com/SheisEdWilson

I'm following anybody who'll listen at this point, lol!

I'm even installing tweetdeck. Anyone used this thing? ha!

Don't worry Kernel,

The voting updates slowly, I'm afraid. We have to wait each hour to see the new votes.

Thank you for voting, tell your friends!

Thank you Wex, you sir are a Rock King m/

Sorry for the double post guys! I finally got ahead. I have to give a lot of thanks to you guys for helping me with the votes. Now, I'm trying to reach 120!2010-07-05 18:46:00

unfortunately, I have to stay in the lead until the 22nd to win the tickets, lol.

I definitely don't want members to feel I'm spamming the board. I've placed a lot of focus on twitter and facebook.

Of course, I'd love to be pushed forward by fellow LBPCers, yet I don't wish to be irksome. You've guys have done so much and I appreciate every vote.

On facebook, however, that's an entirely different matter, ha! I'll try my best to recruit more voters.

Well if you don't get 1st and get 2nd you get the yearly supply of sweet tea right?2010-07-05 21:06:00

Well, the yearly supply of tea is actually a random drawing. Essentially, I could have collected 150 votes and still not win the yearly supply, because winning the tea is about odds. The tickets are based off of votes, at least this is how I understand it.2010-07-05 21:31:00
