To have spent five minutes in the bath repeat voting Steve Backshall up 2 places in the Radio Times Strictly poll

Yes, clearly this is an unreasonable thing to do. But he'd only got 0.59% of the vote Sad and he's lovely Steve Backshall. And many MNers DCs (and their mums) would be pleased to see noted herpetologist Steve Backshall on the front cover of RT in a see-through shirt.

So I spent 5 minutes pressing the buttons and watched him overtaking Jake thingy off of Eastenders and that rugby dude who poses for gay soft porn, and it was strangely satisfying. Also I could deduce the number of voters from the number of clicks required to produce a 0.01% movement which is my idea of fun.

Of course in the time it's taken to post this he's probably slipped back underneath laternjawed rugby dude [sigh].

Just added my own few .......I'm sure A few other MNers would like to take part in this experiment nothing to do with seeing SB on the cover at all

I wouldn't vote for anything like this if it cost money personally.

Scott Mills is winning Confused

I voted for Sunetra.

EvilRingahBitch · 17/09/2014 00:27

Well no, neither would I sooty. I'm being a bit unreasonable, not irredeemably unbalanced.

I can confirm that thus is a very satisfying use of time. Thank you for bringing it to my attention Grin

I'm also wondering if the 84 people who have voted for Greg Wallace are all MNers as he's gone from zero to 0.42% in five minutes.

The only thing unreasonable about this is how satisfying it is. And maybe that I have no idea who Steve Backshall is but voted repeatedly anyway. Thanks for this little distraction Smile
