I voted, Marc. It still asks for an e-mail address but I am a member of the site.

-- With God's help all things are possible- even woodworking. Woodworking is not just a hobby, it is an (expletive deleted) expensive hobby.

Done and yes.

What…Powermatic doesn’t make grills? :-)

Seriously, with your emphasis on the art of BBQ, I expected you to have a Smokemaster Pro 3000 or something similar. I still have my weber for charwood grilling.

Nice grill station…I like the built-in light fixture. Going over to vote now..

haha! Let me introduce you to my little friend.

Hi Marc, just signed up and voted for you. They did not ask for a mailing address, just and email – quick and easy. I have the site bookmarked and will try to remember to vote once a day, good luck – but I don’t think you need luck – that project is by far the coolest!.
Medium rare please. :)
Later,

It’s going to be hard for us old geezers to remember to vote everyday :-)) You’ll have to keep this reminder going!! I gotta vote now before I forget again.

-- Debt is nothing more than the 21st Century's form of slavery.

I think you can count on LJ’s to stuff the ballot box a little.

-- DocK, WV

Another vote for the Wood Whisperer’s Ultimate Grilling Station.

Jim

Come On Folks,

As of this morning, there were almost 9700 LJ’s and yet Marc is in SECOND place with only 567 votes!!

You can vote once a day! He should already have at least 27,000 votes!!

Maybe decorators.com has 12,000 members :-) Thanks for the reminder, i just voted.

-- Debt is nothing more than the 21st Century's form of slavery.

ONLY 768 Votes!!

Come On Folks!!!!!

For Shame, For Shame :^(

Only 981 vote from almost 10,000 LJ’s

lol well it was worth a shot. ;)

-- For free video tutorials and other cool woodworking stuff, check out http://www.TheWoodWhisperer.com

Come on guys, don’t give up now…he is only about two hundred out of first….VOTE VOTE VOTE !!!! (I get very political lol)

-- Don S.E. OK

yeah!! Marc’s in 3rd now ;-( Looks like the porchs and couchs are taking the lead. Shoulda built a bporch swing.

-- Debt is nothing more than the 21st Century's form of slavery.

Marc is back up into second place BUT we need to get him solidly into first place. 10,000 LJ’s and less than 1200 votes. SHAME ON US!!!

1186 Votes as of 9:17am EDT

This is pathetic- Shame on all of us!

The beer ‘frig underneath sealed the deal for me!

-- Whatever

Just signed up for it… sorry I was late for several days – every vote counts. I think we should keep on bumping this thread to remind people for their daily cup of vitamins…err…. daily vote that is. we can beat the other guys …

here marc – I think it’s time to upgrade to THIS (the Powermatic SM2000):

-- When in doubt - There is no doubt - Go the safer route.

Only 159 votes out of first place. We need some more votes to push him over the top.

-- Dale Manning, Carthage, NY

LOL now THAT is a smoker!! I love it!

We still have a ways to go with the votes. 159 votes really isn’t much when you think about how much time is left. Ugh…. I need a vacation. ;)

Make that 1811.

-- When you give someone a chance it may well be their last.

have you had you morning vote today already?

come on guys, it’s a little clicky, and a big help for a follow LJ that has contributed so much…

-- When in doubt - There is no doubt - Go the safer route.

No kidding, just the other day, he was only a little over a 100 votes out of first place. this morn we are slipping further behind. With as many ative members as L/J’s has, he ought to be in the front by a 1000.

-- Don S.E. OK

How can we allow a spray painted porch couch get more votes than Mark’s project??!!

Come on folks!

Yeah!!!!!! :-(( I have voted every day except when I’m out of town on the weekend. My wife had voted a few time too!!

-- Debt is nothing more than the 21st Century's form of slavery.

HAVE YOU DAILY VOTE PLEASE!

-- When in doubt - There is no doubt - Go the safer route.

Thanks for the reminder :-)

-- Debt is nothing more than the 21st Century's form of slavery.

BHG called…. they said they are still awaiting your votes…

come on…. it’s impossible that a wicker bench from HD wins over a woodworking project from scratch…..

-- When in doubt - There is no doubt - Go the safer route.

Just added one more vote and will add one daily (hopefully) until June 12. Good Luck!!!!

-- Dave, Colonie, NY

What is wrong with the BHG website?? What a hassle.

This is your daily reminder to VOTE -every vote counts, and every count votes!

Someone did not vote today!!

Need to double the count of 2700 to catch up ;-((

-- Debt is nothing more than the 21st Century's form of slavery.

VOTE, VOTE, VOTE!!!!!!!!!!

Just a reminder, we can vote EVERYDAY, not just once!!!

I don’t know about this voting thing. It seems every time I vote Marc falls further behind. Am I doing something wrong?

-- When you give someone a chance it may well be their last.

Lew, I posted this on your Woodcraft thread, ” I voted last night just after midnight. The count for Marc was 2706. Today my wife voted at 5 PM, the count for Marc was still 2706. Seems like that is a little fishy, isn’t it? Should have at least gone to 2707 when she voted!!” Has anyone else noticed that? Maybe there should be another vote thread over there again to keep it at the top of the page??

-- Debt is nothing more than the 21st Century's form of slavery.

I believe somewhere on the site it mentions that totals are updated daily.

-- When you give someone a chance it may well be their last.

That seems odd in this day and age, you’d think you’d get instant credit :-))

-- Debt is nothing more than the 21st Century's form of slavery.

Come On Folks, Log On And Vote!!

We are not giving up!

Did the the United States give up when the Germans attacked Pearl Harbor? NO!

Did the Union soldiers give up when over run by the Japanese at Gettysburg? NO!

Did the 300 Spartans give up when faced with the entire British Fleet? NO!

LumberJocks will not give up, VOTE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

lol. You know, much more entertaining than this contest itself is the daily reminders to vote, lol. You guys are awesome!

-- For free video tutorials and other cool woodworking stuff, check out http://www.TheWoodWhisperer.com

OK , someone forgot to vote, today :^(

OK, I think the general idea here was to vote for Marc! not the other guys…. :os

I think there’s some sort of conspiracy here…

P.S. BHG is now serving a free cup of coffee (in your own kitchen) with every vote – go get yours NOW!

-- When in doubt - There is no doubt - Go the safer route.

Went to vote, wound up with two years of BHG. Stupid! Stupid! My bad. That’s going to look funny coming to the house with my name on it. Oh look Scott subscribes to Maxim, Guitar Player and BHG? I might as well subscribe to Cats just to even out my fung sway or whatever. I will now vote everyday you had better win or I’ll sign you up for 12 issues of I Love Birds.

-- There's many a slip betwixt a cup and a lip.--Scott

Unless there is a rally of our forces, LJ’s are going to get stomped!! I guess easy stuff with paint cans is what people want:-((

-- Debt is nothing more than the 21st Century's form of slavery.

Have you watched HGTV lately? That’s exactly what most people want. Woodworkers are a minority my friend….

-- For free video tutorials and other cool woodworking stuff, check out http://www.TheWoodWhisperer.com

Can’t say that I have ever watched it unless I happened to stop a few minutes when channel surfing ;-))

-- Debt is nothing more than the 21st Century's form of slavery.

We only have a little over a week left and Marc really needs the votes!!

Come On LumberJocks, you want everyone to know you got beat by a bunch of Girly Girls?

It looks like it will take an act of God now :-((

-- Debt is nothing more than the 21st Century's form of slavery.

LumberJocks are getting beat by Girly Girls, LumberJocks are getting beat by Girly Girls!!

Vote!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

come on….. we just turned 10K members…. we can EASILY get those extra 3000 votes to catch up… and THEN SOME!

-- When in doubt - There is no doubt - Go the safer route.

Those of you who didn’t vote may be getting a visit from Marc’s friend Luigi Linguine. He has a way of persuading votes.

DON’T RISK IT- Vote Now!!

OK, we’re at 3062…

just a little more to go.

vote vote vote…. OR ELSE!

-- When in doubt - There is no doubt - Go the safer route.

well, if we win now I think I would have to split the prize money between lew and PurpLev, lol.

-- For free video tutorials and other cool woodworking stuff, check out http://www.TheWoodWhisperer.com

ok… gonna go call the big-guns…. let me write a couple of scripts that might help raise some votes around here… lol (no, I’m not really gonna do that… all fair and square)

-- When in doubt - There is no doubt - Go the safer route.

OK, it is Memorial Day weekend- put down the burger, hold off cracking that beer, wait to put the steaks on the grill and VOTE everyday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

sorry for taking so long marc, but I just registered and voted.
best of luck!

hmmm…..3140…. I thought that 10,000 votes would have gotten us a bit over 3500 but now…

hey lew…. topamax…. Marc… wassup?

Come on guys … only a few more days to vote – make yours count! (if you can, make it cound a bit higher.. we can really use it)

-- When in doubt - There is no doubt - Go the safer route.

I agree, Sharon-

I don’t understand it. This thread has had over 1700 views. If everyone who read it would have voted everyday- there would be no contest! Maybe everyone is waiting for the last minute (yeah, right).

LOG ON AND VOTE!!!!!!!!!

VOTE, VOTE, VOTE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

3167…. at least it’s moving upwards.

slow and steady right?

good joinery requires patience right?

I guess that would explain it all as BGH is not a woodworking site… :o/

One for all and All for one – LJs Unite! and VOTE – if more people would be active on this – it’s very realistic to be able to get back on track.

-- When in doubt - There is no doubt - Go the safer route.

It is Memorial Day and most of us have the day off. Take a moment to vote for Marc.

It’s the American thing to do!

The Lil Woman and I are back from M-day, we’re both voting again. What happend in the last couple days? The painted couches are ahead 3-1 now!! ;-((

-- Debt is nothing more than the 21st Century's form of slavery.

ok i voted good luck marc i am a little dissapointed to see that the projects that are ahead in this have zero craftsmenship to them tho all they did was buy a bunch of stuff and paint it. but hey this shows me once agine that beer is good, god is great, and People are crazy.

-- I buy tools so i can make more money,so ican buy more tools so I can work more, to make more money, so I can buy more tool, so I can work more

Come On Folks!!

Everyone vote today and we can push past the 10K mark!!

3204…. hmm….. ~20 votes a day…. my math skills must have dulled out… I thought the amount of members we have would put it at a higher rate….

gotta go sharpen and hone myself….(that sounds so wrong.lol)

-- When in doubt - There is no doubt - Go the safer route.

Guess my wife and Ii are not voting enough, we missed two days over the weekend. Sorry Marc, we did all we coould. The couch and paint can people must have mounted a real campaign the last few days!!

-- Debt is nothing more than the 21st Century's form of slavery.

Only a couple of days left- Marc needs your votes!!

Ugh! Been voting every day, but we’re getting killed out there! What d’ya want, though, it’s BH&G. They’re all about appearance and ambiance over functionality and usefulness. Anyway, Great Job Marc, as usual!

-- Mike in Manchester, NH---Unpleasant tasks are simply worthy challenges to improve skills.

Marc only had 3204 tonight when I voted. He’s been at that number all week! Am I the only one voting?? Or is this count goofy???

-- Debt is nothing more than the 21st Century's form of slavery.

HOLY COW!!!! You guys are amazing! Marc and I can’t say it enough, but I want to make sure you all know how much we appreciate you voting for us. I told Marc paint that thing pink and we’ll be a shoe-in! ;) Ah well, maybe next time hehe

-- Visit us at http://thewoodwhisperer.com

Marc can still win if every LumberJock placed a vote today or half of us voted today and tomorrow.

Come on folks, you don’t even have to change out of your pajamas!!!!!

VOTE!!!

3281…. doesnt make sense at all – but at least it doesnt go backwards…

Nicole – you got the right idea, it’s a friggin’ home decor website, not a woodworking one… they want to see bright colors, sprinkles, and shiny things that look puuurdy.

but we can still make it – I know all those 10K lumberjocks are just WAITING FOR TODAY to vote, and revolutionize the contest….

COME ONE GUYS – This is our ALMOST LAST CHANCE

-- When in doubt - There is no doubt - Go the safer route.

Topamax – sounds like the voting on the site is somewhat fishy is you said Marc was still at 3204 that day… which would make sense why we’re behind…. once this voting is over, I’m pulling outta there.. even their own website has no taste, and seems flawed as hell.

-- When in doubt - There is no doubt - Go the safer route.

If it looks like fish, smells like fish, then …........... When is the end, June 1??

-- Debt is nothing more than the 21st Century's form of slavery.

June 12

If everyone votes and we get a square deal, we’ll win one for marc :-))

-- Debt is nothing more than the 21st Century's form of slavery.

If just half of the members voted everyday- till the end of the contest- well what are waiting for?

I looked through the members the other night. 1/2 have posted one or less posts, so they don’t seem to be very active. This is true of most orginizations I have belonged to, less than 10% are the active ones. Less than 1% will ever do any work, not that voting is work :-))

-- Debt is nothing more than the 21st Century's form of slavery.

Maybe they just coount the suscribers votes?? :-)) 3303 now. Wonder how long that will stay there? :-(

-- Debt is nothing more than the 21st Century's form of slavery.

The leaders are close to 15k, if not over by now :-((

I did, I was wrong, they’re close to 17K !!!

-- Debt is nothing more than the 21st Century's form of slavery.

3480.

there’s no way those other posts are picking up that much over the last few days – something just doesn’t add up (but apparently it adds up to them…)

just a few more days, and I can retire my few week old BHG account…

-- When in doubt - There is no doubt - Go the safer route.

OK, we are only about 14,000 votes behind. SOooo if everyone votes today and tomorrow we can easily pull this out.

Only 25 votes over night :-(( but 2 of them from here :-)) any of you other guys getting your wives to vote too?

-- Debt is nothing more than the 21st Century's form of slavery.

Topa!

Say it isn’t so!!!!!

Mark is the WINNER!! He built something not spray painted a piece of porch furniture!!

-- When in doubt - There is no doubt - Go the safer route.

My wife just voted today. at least there was 43 yesterday!! That poor gal with the garden bench is still under a thousand. Maybe we should all vore for her one day to make her feel better.:-))

-- Debt is nothing more than the 21st Century's form of slavery.

hey Tomapax… I ain’t got any spare votes to donate… if I had, I’d probably trade if for some lumber.

Just another reminder – we still have a chance… I know you all wanted to wait till the last minute – well. um… this is it :o) so cast your Vote TODAY!

-- When in doubt - There is no doubt - Go the safer route.

We’ve been puttiing in 2 a day from here, all isn’t lost, but we need some of our 10,000 to jump on the band wagon here. I stil feel sorry for the poor woman who is less than 1,000 >:-((
