"Redial America!!!"

Posted by Swami on 09-06-03 at 05:23 PM
The calls made to vote for one of the guys on Cupid's televised phone # 866-463-67_ _ are free calls when you call from a land-based phone line like your home phone. (I assume that means if you call on your cell, your cell phone rules (whatever they may be) apply. And if you are calling from your private jet you probably don't care what it costs, LOL.)

Therefore... I call on all True Love fans to redial, redial and redial again! I think this week Lisa will tell us clearly who she prefers, and I am prepared to redial away for that person even if it is *sigh* Evan. (But it will be Hank--right?)

It is time to seperate the men from the boys and send Robert on his way home. I feel pretty sure that the show's true fans outnumber the disgruntled anti-show, anti-Lisa, anti-anti voters. But we have to redial too! Send Robert home!

So this is my call -- REDIAL AMERICA!!!
On Tuesday night, right after the show airs in EST I will put the call-in vote numbers into a new post just in case you miss them. Oh, this is going to be fun...

That's really not true. The only totally free calls are those for Dominic's number.

Nice try at spreading disinformation, Cc.

It was just a JOKE Swami--I post this "misinformation" on the CBS Cupid chatboard all the time and people say LOL about it (especially the diehard Hanky-Yankies get a kick out of it). I would never have posted it here if I thought anyone would seriously believe that calls would be free just for one guy (but I would be happy to pay $1 a call if the calls would vote Robert OFF)

I got the joke, Cc! Really! Sorry, I should have been more clear, I guess. I was trying to respond to your joke using the same simple declarative format you used. Sorry if I screwed up.

Besides, everyone knows the network has already scheduled a reduction in the number of available phone lines for everyone but Hank.


And that was another joke

Thanks Swami--you really are funny and I was afraid I was being inadvertently insulting. Now I CAN tell you that Hank is down to one line, made up of tin cans and strings, and he's still not getting into the bottom three.

I was redialing for Hank last week, even though I wasn't sure if it was free or not. I was just so giddy that I didn't get a busy signal LOL

I would LOVE to vote for Hank again and again and again. But I live in Hawaii and by the time I get the numbers, voting is closed. Please you Hank fans...vote one for me

Thank you Swami for doing this thread!! I am totally on board for this one!!

Count me in, Swami. Although I have to say that I will be more than a bit more enthusiastic if it turns out that Hank is the man, rather than Evan. Either would be better than Dom, Renda or Robert though. Joyful, I'll be sure to get a few votes in for you too.

I've got my cell phone and my home phone on standby!

"RE: Redial America!!!"

LOL HappyDayz ... I never thought of using my cell phone also. I'll recruit DH into a redialing frenzy.

Joyful ... Don't you worry. I'm pretty sure HappyDayz and I will get in a few votes for you also


"RE: Redial America!!!"

Schnookie....in the past I have found that when I can't seem to get through using my home phone, my cell phone gets through much easier....don't know why, but that's the way it works here.

Joyful ~ in the words of Hank "no worries" ~ I've got your back!


"RE: Redial America!!!"
Posted by Cupidcruiser on 09-08-03 at 05:58 PM
But don't you know cell phones will work ONLY for Dominic's number

"RE: Redial America!!!"
Posted by HappyDayz on 09-08-03 at 06:07 PM
Cupidcruiser, you got part of it but must not have read the entire rules....cell phones can be used for Dom's number on Wednesdays and alternating Sundays. Tuesdays they can only be used for Hank's number.

"RE: Redial America!!!"
Posted by Joyful on 09-08-03 at 07:07 PM
**sniff sniff** you fellow Hank fans are soooo sweet!!
Thank you HappyDayz, and Schookie and everyone who will give Hank a vote from me

Go Hank Go!!!!

Ah you foolish Hank fans. We Robert fans have long figured out what you are apparently just now realizing! It's too little, too late. We have perfected the redial technique, and Robert will win!!!

"RE: Redial America!!!"

Hey Joyful, check this website for the phone numbers and try voting right after the show concludes in Pacific Time. Maybe they will accept Hawaii area code calls then. It's worth a try!

A cell phone and a land line--oh you foolish johnny-come-lately voters--we're using four lines at our house and one of Dom's supporters is speed-dialing from SIX lines at his office.

P>S> I would feel sorry for the Hawaii voters not being able to vote if they didn't get to live in Hawaii! That must make up for a lot of the sorrow at not being able to vote

Hmm... Is that why Dom was in the bottom three last week??!! You Dom fans are even more foolish than the Hank fans!

Go Robert!!!

I would wager that there are some bonus votes being generated by the producers for ratings purposes--robert is a ratings draw and they will not let him be jeopardized until the final four (when IMHO he will be the first let go on the last show). Dom is going to be the surprise twist (I HOPE) at the end.... At least he's honest with her and she obviously finds him very attractive physically!

Hi Cupidcruiser Hawaii is great, but we never get to vote on anything because of the time difference, it's kinda a bummer when you're a reality freak like myself. I tried last Tuesday to find the numbers to call when the show ended on the mainland but I couldn't find them! Where are they on this sight? All I could find was updates and messages. The offical Cupid website didn't have the numbers either.

"RE: Redial America!!!"
Posted by Cupidcruiser on 09-09-03 at 02:38 PM
I think someone posts the voting numbers on a thread on another board (fans of reality tv . com -- delete all the spaces) under a spoiler thread--last week it was "9/2 Show Discussion **Spoilers**--that people are supposed to restrict their comments to until after the show has aired in California.

Watch out though because some people will post Robert's number and claim it is for Hank, Dom, etc., so probably you can trust what is posted but possibly not. Buyer beware


"RE: Redial America!!!"
Posted by HappyDayz on 09-09-03 at 02:44 PM
Swami is planning to post them in a thread here tonight after the show......we can trust Swami to give us the right numbers.

Oh, sure, here are the numbers Swami will post :
866-463-6701: Hank
866-463-6702: Robert
866-463-6703: Robert
866-463-6704: Robert

Edited because it didn't make sense before (like it does now?)--I mean Swami will give the real number only for Hank and then the rest will help split the Robert Vote among the other three. Just another pathetic attempt to enjoy the show....

You're right, the people who actually care about the show probably do outnumber the "anti" voters, but the problem is that you are all divided between Hank, Even, and even Dominick. Meanwhile, Robert has the backing of anyone who hates anything about the show.

"RE: Redial America!!!"
Posted by HappyDayz on 09-09-03 at 04:39 PM
But Renda, if he miraculously manages to escape the ax tonight, is picking up some of Robert's votes now, because he's an even bigger freak than Rob...that could cut down on Robert's share.

I have to hold on to hope that there are more romantics out there than cynics.....we'll see.
