We going up at a rate of approx 100/hour whilst oxfords are going up by 80/hour!!!!

I wonder if we're doomed to a dramatic fall when all our fraudulent votes are confiscated, like I suspect Shrewsbury were t'other day.

Nonetheless, let's keep voting like mad pigs! The pack's pretty tight all the way up to Coventry Street (#7),and we're the second highest Scottish city, only marginally below Glasgow. Huzzah!

We also have 463 more votes than London. Chuckle.

We're about to go down one position again, with Oxford being only a handful of votes behind us (five at the moment).

We won't win this by having many votes just now - we'll win this by having many votes every day! So keep on voting, make sure to tell people you know about it... And in the end, don't forget to give it all the energy you have in the last few days ;) !

Where the hell is BaronVille? According to Google the nearest to a place name match is "Baronville", without the random internal capitalisation, which is a town in France.

Are we only barely hanging on to a spot above a place that doesn't even exist?

We've gone down a few positions, so please keep voting regularly.

As for the person asking about posters - definitely! I will be putting some up around University buildings and especially computer labs where people will be more inclined to vote.

I wonder if positions on the leaderboard at this stage are any indication of the final result? Will the gap widen between the top few spots or will it turn into a close race for the top spot? All so very exciting.

Strand?!?!?!
And where the fuck is BaronVille?
Facebook groups are beginning to realise we can mass vote. This is bad!!
Also, I think monopoly will do it alone, putting in Edin, Glasgow, York, Manchester etc, this is just a farce. So I guess its nothing to get excited about?

Watch out as I think Monopoly are moderating the votes and they can tell if people are submitting multiple votes from one computer, or using bum email addresses. I have noticed that some place's votes have actually decreased and I think this is because the moderators are removing rogue votes.

But keep voting, just try to stay within the rules!

Still we're kicking butt for a town of 14000 compared to oxfords 149000.

KEEP GOING FOLKS!!!

St Andrews is a 9/hour compared to two days ago when it was 100/hour

Oxford is at 276.5/hour compared to 80/hour

in comparison of the number of students we should still be at 137/hour

I think it looks like Oxford, Cambridge and BaronVille have certainly found the bandwagon...

Where's our bandwagon? Has it left without me?

Just tried to vote again(yes I am procrastinating!), but it said there was an error and to try again later! This makes me sad!

I think its safe to say we're never going to make it! :'(

I just tryed to vote,
but it said I've already voted today.
Which can't be true, since I've not voted today,
And I forgot to vote on it yesterday.
This sucks.

Oxford and Cambridge must have found some sort of automated method of posting votes. I think the rate that they are going up is too fast.
