HAHAHAHA


I can feel free to say this now.....

I was told that the way the winner is decided is a somewhat "dodgy" process.......


(I love sour grapes)

Hmmm, do I need to get some hitmen out on some peeps

OK....Here is my theory......

Toby actually WON, but had to turn it down because he didn't want to distance himself from the rest of the band......?????

True, Tommy may have thrown the pink headband at Toby and Todd would have gone off and cried with the nearest pillar:gigg:

Guys, we put as much as we could into it. It was up to the judges and they obviously dont see what a fantastic, hot, wonderful, hot, beautifully natured and hot guy Toby is.

19-03-08, 08:42 PM
meh......

at least he wont run off with a supermodel, and we got reallly good half naked pics, and he'll have to remain single for at least another year to get re-nominated in '09, and then we can have really cool voting parties again......

Shazza

I'm gonna have to sit Easter Jugs out this year :(

Paris
19-03-08, 08:51 PM
WHAT??!!! Shazza - you can't sit it out....you can do something on the plane. lol.

Lana and I came up with a theory that this Jason guy only won because he was nominee for 7 years and never won so this was a pity vote from the judges.

Gemma
19-03-08, 08:55 PM
Maybe you can hit the pilot up for it Shazza:LMAO:

Sorry......This pilot????

(any excuse to pull him out again.)

Mandaz

Lol Paris.. thats a good theory haha!

I think we should combine your theory and mine.....

So

Toby really won, turned it down because it wouldn't be a cool thing to do re: band, so then they gave it to Jason Dundas because after 7 nominations they decided to be kind.

That WORKS!

I'm in shock he didn't win. Why have ppl vote if it counts for shit? Serioulsy.

Stupid, stupid.

Anyways, band stuff much more important. Pretty sure toby knows he's hot. :)

I agree!!! really what was the point!

but your right Toby knows his hot! and that we love him hehe

Kelley
19-03-08, 09:19 PM
Okay...here's the reality...

Obviously, the online voting was bullshit.

HOWEVER....it was NOT for nothing.

Everyone who went to that site SAW that Toby Rand was number one. If they didn't know who he was, they do now. The exposure was incredible and after week one, only the top 10 showed day after day...

So had we not voted, he would not have gotten over four weeks of prime coverage on the front page of Cleo Bachelors as NUMBER ONE...We had lots of new members at the forum, lots of new hits at the sites, and hopefully lots of new fans for Juke Kartel. Believe me, Toby will not be crushed, although Im sure he would have LOVED the cash!!! And Angus is his friend, and they are partying with Dennis Rodman Im sure, so he's just fine!

THANK YOU to all of you who voted. Street Teams get their bands exposure. And you guys fucking Rocked That House. We know who won.

Great job! Now back to what matters....the music!!!

Love you guys!!

Shazza
19-03-08, 09:21 PM
Well said Kelley.
I was just personally crushed he didn't win but always had the exposure for him and JK in the back of my mind.

Kelley
19-03-08, 09:24 PM
I know Shazz...we all are. But he's a rocker..and so he's never gonna be seen as "conventional"

Thank God for that, huh?

Lil_Kelzo
19-03-08, 09:26 PM
Same Shaz.

19-03-08, 09:49 PM

Totaly agree Danni... but still great exposure!

Nikki
19-03-08, 10:18 PM
So who is this "Jason" guy?.... can't get back on the the Cleo page to check him out!

Nikki
19-03-08, 10:20 PM
Well u look at past winners ... i can only think of two... but one was a "Wiggle" (Anthony) need I say more!

Love you guys!!
As u said, online voting was bullshit! Only reason they did that was to attract ppl to the Magazines website, again as you said Kelley, that also attracted attention to Toby which is fantastic for him and JK. We know who the real winner is! A past winner was a member of the "Wiggles" so it shows the type the judges look for.... not "conventional"!

Hey hey hey...I LOVE Anthony Wiggle!!!

Nikki
19-03-08, 10:51 PM
Hey hey hey...I LOVE Anthony Wiggle!!!
lol..well he is the "hottest" Wiggle If I can say that! I loved him back in the 80's when he was a member of the "Cockroaches" with "Wake up Jeff"..hehe

Nikki
19-03-08, 10:56 PM
Neither of my boys were "wiggles' fans... took my eldest when he was in Kinder to see th at Vodafone Arena (with my Mothers Group) he was bored stiff after the first song, whilst the girls were right into it! The highlight of the day was when he dropped his pants in the MIDDLE of Federation Square and did a wee.... I ignored him pretending he wasnt my child!

Sorry I haven't been on much lately - work has picked up - and family stuff is pressing. I just had to come on to see how Toby did.

I want to echo Kelley - we did one thing with the voting - we showed that Toby was a contender. The newspapers barely gave him any notice. We showed that he has a strong following. Thank you everyone for voting for him.

Now - can't wait to promote the album, a tour, and a television show!!

I'll be back and posting more after the holiday.

I can't imagine Toby would be too crushed about not winning.....
As with RSSN all he wanted was exposure for Juke Kartel & he got exactly that both times....

Girls, I just wanted to say kudos to all of you that participated in the CLEO Bachelor campaign. I know I haven't posted here much, but I have checked in frequently while working hard, behind the scenes, and I know everyone gave it their all. We didn't fail to get Toby the title, we succeeded to get him tons of attention from people who may have never heard of him had we not kept him in the top spot so long. Great job Team Toby!!!!

While we are all disappointed that Toby didn't win.. Like Kelley said we gave him lots of exposure which translates to exposure for JK which in the end was our ultimate goal..

Toby knows how are his ST worked for him and appreciates that and he has so much going on right now with the album and tv show....


I think everyone did some fantastic work with the voting and getting the word out.. Even though Toby might not have been named the winner, this was a success.. :)

Well thats news to me that Toby is in a relationship....have you not told us something Toby?:shrug

Addy
20-03-08, 01:35 AM
Very disappointed but feeling extremely accomplished at having achieved our goal of Toby in first place for best rated and most viewed...which he was come closing time of the comp. Actually he was for 12 hours after that.....Hail, Jayess oh great one for taking screencaps!

Each and every person interested in the updates knew full well that Toby sat in pole position for 99% of the competiton.

Hold your heads high and know that Toby is totally aware of how hard you all worked.
This is definitely another feather in Toby's hat.

Now onto the next phase of Juke Kartel. :)

Interesting! That Dean guy admitted in his interview to having a girl friend. Funny that Kyle has been in it 7 times...talk about always a brides maid never a bride!

I think being Toby's first year they would have never let it go to him. I have a feeling their winner is picked before the voting ever starts. But, I agree all the exposure is great for Toby and JK. Toby knows who kept him #1 the who month ;)

Stephanie
20-03-08, 03:35 AM
Okay- I gotta throw in my WTF!!!!!!!!!!!????????? Why do they even have people vote if it doesn't choose the winner????? Seriously WTF???????? It was pretty obvoius who really won this copmetition!

Glad for the exposure and I'm sure Toby will recover just fine!!

Addy
20-03-08, 04:36 AM
Too funny. I'm sure its probably news to Toby as well.

Unless of course Tommy's given him the ultimatum and made him fess :gigg:

~*KT*~
20-03-08, 06:52 AM
That's okay, we did all we could and it paid off with amazing exposure for him and the boys!

So yay for that! :cheer:
