I don't think it could possibly be the most requested songs. Maybe it's the songs that they want to promote that week. Each week that has gone by I've requested more and more with the most being the last 2 weeks that they've gone down.

Wow, that's not very good. :(
I thought they would be at least #5 again.
Maybe they're on to the fact that it's the same people requesting over and over again. :lol:

I'm so pissed. (Last night was so fun btw :lol: and will get to it :cocktail: ) but I'm so pissed. I also voted more than ever this week. There were four days I voted/phoned over 100 times, and the other days I was at least 40-60 a day.



I really do think that fan groups are working just as hard as we are. They would have to be. I'm sorry, but Ben Folds is a dork. But he has crazy phanatical fans, I saw him open for John Mayer, and Ben Folds fans are NUUTTTTERS over him. They make us look mild. :lol: His song was #2, and it was floating around the end of the chart for a while. I listened to the countdown this morning, and there are some songs on it that just seem like they're there because of a fan base (in other words, they really suck.)

So I'm gonna guess that it's not Sirius, but that we're duking it out with other fan groups who are working just as hard as we are.

Sooooooooo we will work harder than them. Our band is better, neener neener! :snit:

I guess it's possible that their computers limit the number of requests it'll count from your email address, but then even that doesn't make sense, because as we requested more, the guys moved significantly up the charts, and they also had been getting a lot of plays. I can't see them limiting the number of phone calls they'll accept from your phone number. So why an online request?

The guys prob think we have no lives with all the requesting we do :ha: but you KNOW there's some wacky dudes who really DON'T have a life and their band is on whatever radio station, and they request allllllllllllll day. It has to happen more than we know, we've just never bombarded requests like this (well I sure haven't, at least) so we're paranoid.

I really, really do think it comes down to outnumbering. Look at the ridiculous # of requests we're putting in every day, no one has time to analyze that stuff and say oh look at this wackadoo here, she's a loony, we're not counting her requests! We just feel like they must be. :blush2:

a friendly prodding, from fancorps:

As you know Your Vegas are doing really well on Sirius at the moment, thanks in part to the street teams dedicated work, and this is not only great exposure for the band but if we keep up the requesting and maintain a top 10 place will help spread to other radio stations.
It is therefore ultra important this week that everyone steps up the Sirius requests, get friends to request and keep encouraging other YV fans to do their bit!


We can do it! Yes we can yes we can. :flex:

awesome, Kerri, we've gotta keep trying. :frantic:

I also think if we feel paranoid that Sirius is manipulating the numbers, it'll cause us to become discouraged and give up. Kinda like people not wanting to vote in an election when the government jacks up the results. :annoyed: We'll have to stay optimistic and just try harder.

And Kerri I hear ya about work, it's a double-edged sword, 'cause I want to request throughout the day and I do toss a few on at work, but it's such a temptation and such a distraction! :frantic:

This really pisses me off, too. :annoyed: Is the countdown really only determined by requests? We've been working our asses off, and it's at 17? Just makes you wonder. I can understand there are bands with larger fanbases; so we're being outnumbered and out-nuttered? :wacko: :ha: That makes me feel a little bit better, I think. :blink: We just have to keep up the obsessive requesting!

I think it's just that other, bigger bands have bigger fan bases than YV, so they get more requests from more people.
I hate to say it, but Oasis probably has a lot more fans than YV. :lol:

that's what I meant. There are less of us but we each place more requests, I can't see Oasis fans compulsively trying to push them to the top to get their band heard, lol, but what we lack in size we make up for in..... obsessive compulsive competitiveness. :D :blink:

Oasis probably has a lot more people requesting their songs just for the sake of hearing them though. I think everyone is at least a little curious to hear what Oasis sounds like now. And their new stuff is amazing, so I can't blame people for wanting to hear it. :lol:
I'm sure that each Oasis fan doesn't request nearly as much as we do though. :lol:

I think YV has to dig a little deeper into their fan base. There's us, but there's a lot of fans out there not requesting, or requesting very little.

WE CAN DO THIS!!!!!




Awwww! The news today IS a bummer, but we've got to push forward! This past week is the most I have ever requested :blink: too. But, we've got to keep the faith, keep requesting!

I know, just think how many requests YV would have if each of their frends requested just ten times. I think it would be around 300,000, that would surely bring them to number one. :lol:
