I was wonder the same thing. That’s just sad. Anyways, I voted.

where you guys trying to get this at?
Johnny, check painesparkproject.org

god damn it! dallas is beating phlly two weeks in arow!
236
242! only down by 80! (obviously I am bored at work and checking this every hour)
Learn to spoof your IP and vote as many times as you want. Holla!!
we are only down by 65!!!!! we still have 22 days to win this…..
how do you vote multiple times??! we need to get guerilla on this shit like woah. someone just added a new project yesterday and they’re already up to 115 votes. so far the contendah’s are rolling like so: 1. dallas, pa – 340 2. us! – 282 3. lake havasu, az – 115 guer¬¨‚àëril¬¨‚àëla or gue¬¨‚àëril¬¨‚àëla g‚Ķ√¥-r∆í‚â†l’‚Ķ√¥) n. A member of an irregular, usually indigenous military or paramilitary unit operating in small bands in occupied territory to harass and undermine the enemy, as by surprise raids.
If you want to get guerilla on it and vote multiple times you’re going to have to be slick. They’re system is a fairly good one and logs the IP Address of your machine to keep you from voting more than once. If you want to get around this you have to be tricky, and by tricky I mean nerdy. Google terms like “how to spoof your IP Address”, “IP Spoof”, “Fake IP”, and generally any kind of basic/beginner hacking tutorials you might be able to find. There are shit loads of articles/blogs/write-ups out there on the subject. Good luck.
thanks, i’ll see what i can do…
ok so i don’t have the time to learn how to nerdbox properly. good news is we’re only 12 away from the lead! that lake havasu shit HAS to be cheating. they put their shit up yesterday and have 236 votes already – wtf?

That puts us over the top!
REPOST this finn, were winning!

HAVEBOARD RULES THE INTERNET!!!! for whatever thats worth. that rendering is looking pretty sweet.
we’re killing it!!!!
Is the replacement for Love Park built yet? What’s up with that project?
THAT IS THIS PROJECT! Things are moving along, big news is in the works. This contest is to benefit said project, since you apparently are not getting it.
Thanks for explaining it to me HaveBoard. Didn’t this project start like 5 years ago though? Isn’t the city already paying for it? What’s the holdup? I’m sure the new mayor will make it happen. Cause he really cares about Philadelphians, unlike Street. Whatever, by the time this park goes up I will be 45 years old and not skateboarding anymore.
Nutter was one of the biggest proponents for stricter bans on skateboarding in Love Park in the first place. I don’t foresee him helping. And, in his defense, he’s got bigger things to worry about with this city.
anon, I have no clue who you are but it seems like you are way out of the loop on this whole skatepark thing.
Nutter is down for the project, in general. We’ll see if that spells funding. We’re getting there. 5 years for a $6M public plaza in downtown Philadelphia is actually not that long. Not into skating at 45? Shame, shame… Wait, we don’t know your name. N.
Hell, if it doesn’t get done till im 45 (which it wont), then ill have my kids skating it and get my joy through them
Your right Bill, it wont. (sarcasm)
guess that makes you 44 then huh Bill?
if you took the time to understand politics and how it works in the city of brotherly love, you would appreciate the position Nutter was in. Against what many people think, Nutter did not wake up one day, and decide that skating in LOVE was bad, he was responding to what his constituents lobbied for. Because we did not have a unified cohesive organized, and PROFESSIONAL voice in the city to educate, and voice the concerns of the skaters, he had no reason to not execute on what he believed his people wanted…This is why we (franklins paine) exists… I have taken the time to sit down with him, before I voted, and understand him, and truthfully believe he not only understands the need, but will do everything he can to make it happen, as his new constituents (young active citizens of Phila) want it! Thoughts?
please don’t use me bill
UHMM EVERYONE CHECK TINNELL we best all keep on spoofin those IP
Goddamn, Brad. Where would we be without people as dedicated and professional as you and the rest of Franklin’s Paine? I say “fuck Nutter in the ass,” and you say “Sit down and talk with him.” And look what becomes of it. For that my sleeveless friend, you r‚àö‚àÇkk.
eh yo, tinnell is catching up – what happened to the charge? REPOST!!!!
Fuck. They’re closing the gap real fast.
Tinnell took over. Our game is weak.
Wow. How embarassing.
We came. We saw. We blew it.
Oh ya, and that anon dude is an idiot. Don’t comment on shit you obviously know nothing about.
We’ll still get a runner-up prize. It’s small, but it’s still one more resource to help us achieve our goal. Did I just use the words “achieve” and “goal?” Ah, Jesus cross-dressin’ Christ.
back within 5… hold strong balboa!! “Who am I kiddin’? I ain’t even in the guy’s league…It don’t matter, ’cause I was nobody before…I was nobody. That don’t matter either, ya know…It really don’t matter if I lose this fight. It really don’t matter if this guy opens my head, either. ‘Cause all I wanna do is go the distance. Nobody’s ever gone the distance with Creed. And if I can go that distance, ya see, and that bell rings, ya know, and I’m still standin’, I’m gonna know for the first time in my life, ya see, that I weren’t just another bum from the neighborhood.” Rocky Balboa
