    You mean HOLDING a competition here in the Midwest? I’m in the midst of planning one for for next summer!

    Yes, Empy, I meant the Midwest division in the USPDF competition. Like East coast has their comp and west coast has theirs then they take all those people and have one big competition. Why don’t we have our own USPDF comp to add to the big one? https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_question.gif

    I would love to host a USPDF comp. However this is going to be our own Midwest comp…separate and different from the USPDF.

    I’m sorry to open up a can of worms here, but what happened in the voting???? The last time I checked, which was probably a couple of hours before voting "closed", Alicia had the most votes by far. Now they’ve announced that Shelley won the online voting. Please note that this post is not about talent of the dancers in any way, shape or form. I thought the dancer with the most votes was supposed to win. Anybody have a clue?

    Hmmmmm I don’t know https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_scratch.gif This is why online voting can be tricky.

    i mentioned this once already in this thread, but the last time i checked the votes, which was super late at night, tehre were over 10K votes recorded–which seems VERY high to me. i think they had some kind of technical glitch, hence the delay in annoucing results as well.

    This was my point in starting this thread…NOT complaining about USPDF or the people that run it as some kept inferring. My gripe was not with the people setting this up or with the competitors themselves.

    Something was wrong…either people were pushing their votes somehow through the system and voting more than once or found some way to break through the system…or maybe the system was accidently multiplying vote counts.

    I never saw over 10K votes but I did see the numbers way over a thousand each at one point…then the next day they were back down.

    I also saw two of the counts went up by nearly 300 counts EACH in less than an hour at one point!

    i still don’t mind the idea of online voting in certain circumstances. it is unfortunate that this event came off with appearing to have a boatload of technical trouble https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_sad.gif

    given that this is what happened, how can anybody REALLY know who had the most votes ? hmmmmm again https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_scratch.gif
