I am one of those who believe in Law of attraction from the Secret video and book. What I remember clearly is to ask, don’t think of how, and the universe will answer your question / give it to you.

Here is what I want for now:
1. Win the WordPress theme contest series 3 from Lunarpages. (People, vote for me – Floral day by SimplyWP – please.. Voting will end on Sunday, 19th Oct 2008 – EST time if I not mistaken)

2. Canon Ixus 950is
3. Teeth brace

*to be updated*

On the other side, I have a good experience, thanks to the wordpress theme contest. I learn that, if I want to ask for help, my friends are there and willing to help me. Even the college mates that I haven’t met for almost 2 years, they were there to lend hands too. Do I still need to mention about my highschool friends?

I asked their help, they forwarded it and asked their brothers, sisters, cousins, friends and friends and so on. The result is amazing. I suppose that is what we call people power? Lastly, thanks MSN messenger~!

I’m blessed~! Just when I doubt about friends and friendship, God shows that to me.

Edit:

Looks like somebody got desperate cause the voting will end today and his theme is not leading now (mine neither), hence the questioning comments that he made. Oh well, why panic and sweat and desperate? We still have time and community voting is not the final decision.

Themes will be judged by Lunarpages staff members and anyone who votes via the Lunarpages Blog, Newsletter, and Forums. All submissions will be judged by the following criteria:
Community Votes: 25%
Staff Votes: 25%
Creativity, Originality, & Uniqueness: 25%
Overall Theme & Usability: 25%

Voting for Lunarpages WP theme contest has ended

The community voting for WordPress Series 3 Design Contest by Lunarpages was officially closed. There will be staff voting and winners will be announced on October 22nd, 2008. I was about to write a long rant regarding the voting but heck, I prefer to let it go.

You see, I joined the contest in peace but I am just amused to see what people can do when they were not in a good situation. When I (my theme: Floral Day) received 70+ and 40+ votes within an hour (both on different days), he (the other participant) left this comment as if it is so impossible to get that amount of votes within a short time. As if he never heard about messenger like MSN and networking?

heh, simplywp’s vote count jumped with 41 while i took my dog to a walk. don’t even know why we’re even trying, because we already know who will have the most votes

I didn’t go back to Lunarpages blog and commented or trying to make things clear, cause I didn’t see the need to do that. God knows what is happening.

Funny thing, when he received sudden large-amount-of-votes (more than 50 in a short time, I forgot the exact number) few hours before voting closed, he tried so hard to explain in his blog about how he got that votes, although nobody questioned him. I mean, the whole post doesn’t sound like he is sharing but it is more to create an alibi. Even a 5th grader can tell that. Well, it might be me whom is over sensitive (blame it to PMS ).

He wrote in details how he got the large-amount-of-votes from a girl’s connection in YM. It seems to be a contradiction with his comment before, where it sounded like he has used all of his ‘army’:

heck, i blogged about the contest/asked fellow bloggers to blog about the contest and ask their readers to vote for me, i made a medium scaled thread over at digitalpoint forums asking those who are using my themes/plugins to vote for me, and got almost all of my friends and my friend’s friends to vote for my theme and i get like 1-5votes/hour

When the community voting was ended, somebody (who isn’t the contest participant) left this comment:

Since you mentioned it, it’s funny to see all those 3 jumping their number day by day. They all previous winning doesn’t even achieve 100 votes and now, all of the sudden it’s more than 300… Well, voting takes only 25% of the chance, guess there are more to go then vote from us

Two of them responded to the above comment and explained. I said nothing. Again, I don’t see there is a need to do so. Let the commentator questioned whatever he wanna questioned. After all, Lunarpages staff already said that they will double check the votes.

Oopps.. I said I’m not gonna rant and I just did it. Fine, leave it to Lunarpages staffs to do the job and checked on the voting accuracy.
