Has anyone tried changing the brightness or contrast of yur monitor?

I just messed around with it and it helped me figure out some of the darker numbers/letters.

I just did the same thing, dragged the window over to my second monitor (bright for movies, etc) and it made a huge difference on my success rate. I was about 1 for 10 before and I've just taken made 25 out of 30 attempts.

In this case, Brighter=Better

Kids should be sleeping soon. Let's make up some ground.

If one can vote double-fast there must be a way to vote as fast as possible. Can someone figure out how (proxies?) and then make a program that simply pops up the verify code and has you press the buttons then instantly moves on to the next one? This way we can speed up the voting 5x.

We're treading water here. We're 900 votes FURTHER from 5th place than we were 48 hours ago. The top 4 remain unchanged. Westborough is a force to be reckoned with. San Fran OOT-ers mount up. We need to send someone in for recon/sabotage.

True that doesn't look so good but the morning updates are usually where we gain spots. We gained 1400 yesterday between the PM and the AM.
Vote vote vote.

Well done, Tony-san. Our kids have a chance. Obviously we need a couple more forums working on this. Those middleborough kids have too many computers to be doing so well. They don't need these laptops.

I'm gonna link to the best of 100 contest one more time since my original link didn't work. I think it's a good idea at least, and a great idea for forums that we want to introduce this to. Just check it.

I'm confused. The hottest school today has 1100 votes. If just 15 people vote 100 times a day, we beat that. Does it not count all the votes right or something?

I think the count resets at like 1am EST, but not sure. Jman, I love the contest you started. Excellent idea. Ok, guys, the good news is that we've got 31st place. The bad news is that we are behind in the midnight hours!!!! THE NIGHT BELONGS TO OOT!!!!! Get out there guys! We are only 6th hottest right now. We usually vie for 1st at this time of the day.
