I wonder how many votes you got with that Mailinator_Admin vote-bot...

Hey Rich tell RM that is hating comments just got you another vote. What a wuss.

Oh Wave! Did you guys all share the same Vote Bot robot program? So sad! You're free to vote for yourself day and night, all the Vote Bot cheaters, but it doesn't make the videos winners! Just cheaters.

I wake up and see all these bot comments, or mallinator comments, and it just disappoints me that people are attacking each other on here. I have been the biggest pest to my friends, family, and from THEIR e mails, THEIR friends and family, and trying to honestly get votes, and if I could just share some program to get votes, well, great, but I'm not using a program, and honestly, this contest should solely be about who's the best of the entrants.

A lot of really good ones got missed not making to this round, and do I see people's entries on here that I personally don't find up to par? Sure, but I'm sure mine isn't up to par in other people's eyes. The fact is, we're all fans of the show, I have been acting for 10 years and don't have any ridiculous expectations of this, but would love the opportunity to meet the people behind the show, but can't we all agree that we all LOVE the show, and whoever wins, regardless of how many votes they get, or whether they are actually "deserving" be it talent wise, or some program that is flooding the system, or a huge network of family and friends voting for them, whoever wins will be truly lucky.

And my bad, I thought my e mail would post, this is Rich, if that wasn't clear. lol

Hope you win, Rich....You have a great voice! Wish I could vote more than once. Take Care, Liz

This entry has come from nowhere and now suddenly has over 1000 votes when it only had maybe 200 up until a day or so ago. Yet it still has only 45 comments so clearly has only a few genuine humans voting for it.

The people who have implemented this vote bot (basically just an automated way of registering with a temporary email address, confirming that email address and submitting a vote, as many times as they like) have completely ruined this contest for all those hard working actors who are looking for a break and want a FAIR chance of getting their 15 minutes of fame.

For starters what needs to happen is any votes from people with recurring email addresses. e.g. xxx@mailinator.com or i_am_a_vote_bot@mailinator.com need to be removed from the vote totals. OK you'll lose any votes with gmail or hotmail accounts - but at least it will be fair.

Came from nowhere? I've consistently been in the top 10 these last 2 weeks, as well as telling friends, who told friends, just like everyone else.

This contest has been too fun, and all the entries and takes on our favorite show too interesting to resort to slamming people, or trying to smear someone, and I don't mean myself, I mean anyone. All the entries have their merit, it all is a fair chance, and the negativity generated by the competitiveness of the contest is unfortunate. I see you voted for Rhe, as did I. I thought hers was clever and great.

is that 1st vote your mom

Hey Rich, Princeton high School says hello!!!! Good luck. just voted.

Malana and I are having coffee right now and talking about you!!!!! It is all good! She wants to know if you will be her friend on FACEBOOK. She promises to watch MadMen if you get on the show. But I have a problem. I do not have a TV (because I am too busy to watch) but feel free to come into my living room, literally and perform one of the skits you are so good at doing!!!! :-)

By the way Rich, Malana and I read your posts. You are genuinely unique and yes, you did pester us to death but we love you!!! And we do not look at it as "pestering" - we look at it as support. Because it is the personal relationships you build out of getting to know so many "little" people that will make you a high achiever. Success in numbers, not just success in who you know. (Of course, that plays a part in this round of events.) By the way, did I tell you I know the director of the show? (Just kidding...)

Hey Rich, ditto to you too. Thanks for your drop in, and the positive comment you left for me, there's not many of those going around these days. I'm happy to have been in the runnings with so many talented people in my first contest, regardless of the outcome, everyone has a future that's unwritten and has to be ventured. Thanks again, I value your comment. Jason Klink

Hi Rich, Thank you for the nice comment! Good luck to you as well, in this contest and in your career as an actor. I'm sure your folks and family are proud of you, regardless of the college money spent! - Cheers, Cara

Rich, thank you so much for the comment. I am amazed we all got this far and kudos to EVERYONE for staying in the game;) Peace and Love!

Thanks Rich, best of luck to you as well with the contest and future endeavors.
RM.
