Vote For Me And I Will (not) Split My Winnings With You

[Dodd Formeianna]

He made it into the final round? Sweet!

Enough with the stupid Facebook 5th grade popularity vote antics. Just give him the award already.

[Kirb]

woo

good luck getting in the top 5

[Vespasian]

[Dood]

Yep, top 10.

Veela and I shot my second video yesterday (she actually finished it, but I'm not promoting it until they announce top 5). I have a week to get my video onto YouTube and submit a 500 word essay on why I'm awesome and some other stuff.

Fingers, they are crossed.

do you have to quit your day job if you get this?

[Dood]

do you have to quit your day job if you get this?

Nope. They're asking for 5-7 public appearances per quarter for a year. As a government employee the people of my community have seen fit to compensate me with lower than average pay but absurd levels of paid time off, so I shall take that paid time off and go get paid to do other work.

Gratz Dood on making the final top five. May the voting commence soon, and the best RumDood win.

I'm pondering throwing something up on ToR boards in the Scylla vets thread to see if we could get some of the ToR forums mobilized to stuff the ballot box for our boy...

I posted on Facebook in support of you, but my friends are assholes and probably won't vote.

Can't say I didn't try.

Wait.. I haven't voted today. TO THE FACEBOOK!

[Vespasian]

I think I voted for someone else today. My bad.

Oopsie daisy, meeesa did it again.

I keeed. I keed.

[Blackferne]

Vote!

Or don't and crush Dood's dreams.

I have no real opinion your motivation.

[Vespasian]

Vote!

Or don't and crush Dood's dreams.

I have no real opinion your motivation.

Can't we do both simultaneously?

All Hail Dood, the Offical Rumologist of...

The Church of Alvis.

Because apparently those fuckers at Tommy Bahama have no class. Although I'd have to say that being the official rumologist of the Church of Alvis is probably the more prestegious position. And also probably provides better benefits.

Parting shot posted. Unlike clicked.

[Dood]

Actual conversation:

"This is Matt."

"Hi Matt, this is ________ from Tommy Bahama calling. How are you enjoying London?"

"It's pretty awesome, thanks."

"Well Matt, I'm calling because we've closed the voting and your video was incredible and you did a hell of a job pushing for votes..."

"But you picked someone else. Got it."

"No no, once the voting started it was out of our hands, Matt."

"Of course. It's cool, I've seen these competitions before and I know enough people in marketing to know how they work. I never expected to win - I was pretty much using this as a test of my own market influence. I've already leveraged it into some deals with brands like Cruzan and the Barbados Board of Tourism."

"Oh. Well, we're...um...we're glad that you're OK with this. We really...uh...we really hope we can do something together in the future."

"Ha! Yeah, I'm sure. Listen, I really appreciate the call, but I'm on my way to dinner and drinks on Ron Diplomatico's dime. Thanks for the call ______, I really do appreciate it and I wish you guys the best."

[Bulwark]

lol

[Raikir]

I think "pwned" would be an apt description.

[Blackferne]

Blackferne: look at you breaking the TB marketting guys heart like that

Dood: It's hard work being an asshole and yet awesome at the same time

Blackferne: "Jenny I know you are going to prom with David, and that's cool, I've got both Ashley and Rebecca from the cheerleading squad as my dates. We should talk later though."
