Calmarchingband

(TnH Edit2: Stanford hacked the contest to try to discourage Cal people from calling in. DAMN YOU, CARDINAL AND WHITE! THERE SHALL BE NO QUARTER GIVEN! I shall send my CGB North vassal-slaves to crush you in your sleep. As for reasonable people, you have about 20 minutes more, so keep calling the number as listed below. Go Bears!)

(TnH edit: Overnight, the recording has changed. When you call 9724, it says you are voting for Stanford now. It is unclear to me what has happened. I have contacted Goldblooded to ask him to clarify. Please check comments for further information on how to help assist the Cal band. Thanks and Go Bears!)

Hey CGB, please take some time this evening to call toll-free 1-888-717-9724. Cal is currently "battling" Stanfurd, Davis, and SJSU for twenty thousand dollars from Comcast. You can call as many times as you want, and the band with the most calls by noon on Wednesday wins. So please, spread this number around, call often. Go Bears!

It's spelled "M-A-R-C-H-I-N-G-B-A-N-D."

is this to pay for the nude bus trips like what happened at Davis? Pics or it never happened.

We’re losing more of our budget next season, which means even fewer away trips. This cash would help out in a big way.

The Number Votes for Stanford?!?

I called the -9724 number, and it said I voted for Stanford! WTF?!? Is this a hoax? !? Have the furds hacked the lines?!? The voice message claims to call -9725 for California. WHAT’S REAL?!?

Yesterday, it was Cal

then I called the number this morning and had the same problem….

What I Believe.................

Can’t find on the web a Comcast Battle of the Bands web page. But I did find San Jose State promoting the contest, with a number that ends in 9736.

When one calls the 9725 number, you get a Stanford Band Member introducing himself and thanking you for voting for Stanford. Somewhat similar if you call the 9736 San Jose number, but a different voice than the Stanford weenie. Neither refers you to other numbers.

Now when you call the 9724 CAL number, you get that same Stanford Weenie voice, but without introducing himself. He then says vote again by calling 9725 for Cal (HOAX) and 9726 for San Jose. There is no mention of UC Davis, which is also in the contest.

Since yesterday the 9724 number acknowledged your vote as Cal, I believe Stanfurd has hacked into the Cal mailbox, linked to the proper 1-888-717-9724 vote for Cal number. But regardless of what the message says, I believe dialing the number automatically records a vote for Cal.

We must not let the weenies win!

MOBILIZE NOW. Vote early and often for Cal.

Cal Band’s Great! Go Bears!!

Keep calling the original number

Do not call the one the recording suggests. Some guy just hacked the recordings. The right number to call, as far as i can tell, is still

1 888 717 9724

I think I voted for Cal

I’m going to avoid voting again until I’m sure.

1-888-717-9724

This number votes for Cal. The message says so, which is the confirmation received last night. Cal Band confirms it. Polls close in less than 2 hours. Gotta vote often! Toll Free. Show those furds they can’t STEAL this vote.

Keep Voting?

It is after 12 noon on Wednesday, but the 9724 number remains active and states “you’ve voted for Cal”. Are these late votes being counted? Should we keep voting, even though the polls are supposed to have been closed? Has the voting deadline been extended, because of Stanford’s mischief? GUIDANCE REQUESTED & Go Bears!

Can you do a quick fanshot proclaiming this to the world with overly cartoonish histrionics? Keep it short and I’ll front page.
