Hey all...Koufax News! UPDATE

by rcs1

Update [2006-3-24 20:23:42 by standingup]: The folks at Wampum have a post up that final voting for the 2005 Koufax Awards will end Sunday, March 26th at 11:59 PM (EST). Still time to cast your vote for the 15 categories.

We are in the final round for the Koufax Best Community!  Here's the link: Best Community

Pretty good for an organization that even determined its name -- thank you, Bionic! -- through community action!

If you feel so inclined, you can vote for your favorite just by leaving a comment in the thread. To see the impressive list of company we keep, jump below the fold.

RubDMC and Jeff Huber just posted the Monaghan story -- Tom Monaghan's Pizza Pilgrimage not even a week ago!  

Got to go vote for them all now!

I assumed that increased site traffic was the reason for it hanging up. I had to vote 3 times, but I did finally get through. I noticed that several people voted 2 or 3 times, so they must have experienced the same problems.

I want to take this opportunity to express how very proud I am of everyone here and how proud I am to be part of a new wave in journalism.

When I left Wampum, we were doing quite well.

is all your great work on the Border issues and that terrific piece you did in your article Charged with a Conscience

Thank you for being part of US

...and both times, timed out.  I'll try again later.  Does anyone know when the voting closes?

I had the same experience.  I discovered my vote was entered in the comments when I tried again.  My guess is their servers are very busy and my browser (Firefox)was fooled.  Might be worth checking to see if your vote took too.  

I have not found a date for the close of voting on Wampum's site.  Hope they will post a date soon.

several of the votes seem to be registering several times... weird timing out over there.

It's amazing to be on that list. That's a prize in itself.

This is encouraging indeed.

Wander said somewhere in a slew of emails, or maybe it was Todd:

It's like the Oscar Nomination - even if you don't win it is definitely worth trumpeting about the nomination!

Way to go TEAM!

I posted above about not being able to vote at 1:05...just checked the site and my vote shows at 12:30.

by BarbinMD on Tue Mar 21, 2006 at 08:21:11 PM EST
and then it was like there was a bounce... wondering if Wampum is getting a lot of traffic on their servers...
