so is the app the fastest of all?? will start voting soon so shall i just use that? The problem I have with the app is that I can't find a fast way to go back and vote again in rapid succession. If someone knows a good technique for that, I'd be interested. I find that my PC is still the fastest using the same technique I used for the previous round. But it's even faster now. - I setup 4 tabs, right now - 2 for BATB and 2 for KK. - I programmed my "HOME" key on my keyboard to move to the next tab - The "BACK" key on my keyboard serves as the 'back' function to return to the previous webpage. - Luckily, both BATB and KK are in the center row of the PCA webiste. So I have both the BATB square and KK square positioned on the same spot within each tab. So I don't even need to move my cursor with the mouse. - On my keyboard - I click "HOME" to move to the next tab, "BACK" to return to vote page, and then simply click my mouse. - While my last vote is being counted by the PCA site, I've already moved on to the next tab This is working super fast for me now. But if someones got a better and faster way, I'd like to know. Would also love to be able to see my vote count. The Facebook page looks pretty much like the website as far as I can tell. Don't see a counter there yet. how many per minute?

Don't see a counter there yet. how many per minute? OK, so you prompted me to time myself. Not that I could sustain this for long periods, but 38 in one minute was my fastest so far, staying really focused. At a more normal pace with relaxed concentration around 30 per minute. During the last round for nominees, I was getting in maybe 15 per minute, 18-20 if I tried my fastest. So this round is much faster.

I am still having to just vote normally on my PC through the PCA awards with my computer mouse. I do not know what Apps are or Tabs. I don't own a "smart phone." Mine is an old-school flip phone. I have no idea how to program a keyboard. So no internet or anything on it or at my house. So that gives you knowledge of my total lack of tech expertise. So if anyone can TRULY break it down about what can be done to speed up voting and post it here for someone with NO tech knowledge, I would do my best to comply. HOWEVER, DON'T take time away from voting if it would take too long when I might not be able to figure it out even with detailed instructions due to a complete lack of tech no-how.

So this round is much faster. yep that are the exactly same numbers I get. With a steady pace and room for some occasional hiccups or slowdowns I manage an average of 600 votes in 20 minutes Bummer that FB doesn’t count your votes anymore and doesn’t show voting activity. Now we will have no idea how we are doing, and I can only roughly estimates my votes based on time. I counted them in the nomination round(voted over 52.000 times), but I’m tired to do so for the next 30 days....

Wow. With no tech no-how, I can only vote, at most, 5 times a minute.

I think everyone should vote the way they can and know!I have the app, but is not working as last year and as BeastBoy said i did not find a way to go back to the last page to vote again. So app is not the fastest one! I am voting on my notebook. I open 4 Pages: 2 for KK and 2 for BATB. Then I vote and go to next page. After i have done the fourth, I turn back to the first one and click the button to Return the last page, so I do the same with the others three pages votting all over again. It' s being quick. Sorry if I don't know how to explain Well...

For the app, I found that the title of the category at the top is actually a menu that scrolls left and right. So to go back after voting,slide the title menu bar to the right and it will return to the last category. It's still not as fast compared to one click on my PC, but handy when I can't be desk bound.

Thanks, BeastieBoy! I will try it. It is a good option when you are not near to a computer ir notebook!

Well said Yolie! Besides ratings what else is pressing issues to our shows survival? Well how new shows fair for one. Also how reign and the other season shows do. The other factor is the actors themselves. Jays and Kristin contracts are up this season. Do they want to renew their contracts? Does the network want too? Now that their original contracts are done with this season that will be a major factor. The duo might not want to do the show anymore to venture into something else. You asked I answered ..I know it's a bummer but it's reality It is a bummer! But I do like to be well informed! LOL. Jay & KK as leads only signed a 3 year contract? I thought leads usually sign for longer? I think if the ratings do well enough I can the network wants them still for the show I can see them sticking around.
