I'll gladly vote for you as long as you tell me that youre going to enjoy this rifle and not going to resell it to some poor schmuck on here like a carnival hawker.
Aint no brokedicks on TnDeer got enough money to take it off your hands over there.

Dude, if I can win that rifle, I'll take it to the grave with me. I never win anything, and that would be the cat's meow.............

Yes, the 1895SBL is mine. The prize is a "Custom Marlin 1894 CST rifle and 300 rounds of .357 ammo", although I haven't been able to find a picture of it. Thanks for the votes so far, guys.

Thanks, you've got my vote.
I'd hope for the same if I was after that rifle myself.
Can someone tell me what is going on??? I have the OP on ignore
Voted for ya man.
You got this up on other sites with a link? We should be able to vote on those unless it is tracked for 24hrs by individual IP.
kinda sucks dudes might be running bot programs for votes
Put that link up on tn deer and see if their is a loophole for votes thru another sites host server Or if they are tracking individual IP,s
Cant hurt to eliminate the possibility
Fugg it!!! If dudes are running bots for votes somehow. And you can find a loophole for votes At least the ones you get are actual real people voting
In a roundabout way.
Fight fire with fire man!!!!
If it works Let's us know the sites and who you are. Or a link. I would vote for ya as many times as I could to take it away from some dikhead with a possible bot program voting for him.
Dude that is in 1st place now, that moved up from 2nd over the last couple days. That Rifle of his is an abomination in that video clip. How in the fugg is he in 1st place with that thing when compared to basically everyone else,s classic looking lever guns.

I just got an email from them saying that I am currently in 3rd place, with 592 votes, and am only 105 votes behind 2nd place. They must track by IP, so those bots must not be making much difference.
done deal, and i will set an alarm on my phone so i can remember to give you a daily bump....several 'puters here on the network, so i'll see if it'll let me vote from each one.

Appears that the cheaters have been booted....good luck
Leaderboard still shows 3rd place. I really appreciate the votes everyone, but I still have until midnight on the 28th to pull off a win. Hopefully you guys can help me do it.
Thanks, but I don't believe I did. I'm suspicious that it was rigged. The 1st place winner came out of nowhere only 3 or 4 days before, with professional photos and a rifle full of contest sponsor parts. Then, they ended the voting almost 5 hours before it was supposed to. Kinda leaves a bad taste in my mouth, but I really appreciate all the help you guys gave me.
Noticed the last time I read her little blurb That the reference to the companies name in the parts was omitted from the original blurb when She 1st took over numero uno.
Most places name winners and town and state in contest like this with consent.
Contest was bogus from the start
Dude with red jeep and dude with modular rifle that were in 1st and 2nd days back totally dropped of the board. Then some young girl comes outta nowhere for 2nd. Then miss company promo plug seizes and holds 1st for days outta nowhere .
24 hr boycott list along with the NFL Hahahaha!!!!

Yup rigged and I'd venture to say they (the sponsors) rigged it as it's a woman with full tactical lever decked out in all their wares....double framed photo also Fixed for sure in my opinion
I sent an email stating the appearance of fraud - professional pics, late entry that moves quickly to the front and obvious sponsor add-ons to the rifle, and this is what they sent back to me: ___________________________________________________________________________________
Hi Fred,
I'm shocked by your email. I'm not sure what we did that was shady or wrong. What is it that we did exactly?
We're awaiting final results from Rivetworks IT who monitors for any fraudulent submissions or voting irregularities. During the contest, they had already identified three people who we notified and removed from the contest. One of which had a video entry and was in the #1 spot and the red jeep guy #2 and both were removed on 2/24/19. We had tons of others try to submit photos not belonging to them and they were not approved.
So before we award the current winner Natalie Dinnerson who entered 2/14/19, the IT team is looking at the voting to make sure nothing amiss took place. They can tell very easily when voter fraud takes place. If it did, she will be eliminated and the #2 would win (as long as he did nothing wrong). At that point, the winner needs to sign paperwork for their 1099 and then Mad Pig Customs will ship them the rifle and Aguila Ammunition will ship them the ammo.
I can assure you that we tried to do everything in our power to make sure the contest was managed properly. That's in addition to paying for that expensive Mad Pig Custom custom-built rifle.
If we or the system failed any information that you can share would be very valuable.

Ok, now I need your help. If anyone can verify the use of bots, of using a faked or professionally produced photo, or any voting irregularities at all, please post here or PM me. I want to respond to this email with hard facts, especially the "They can tell very easily when voter fraud takes place."

Here is my email to them
To Whom it may concern.
I have followed your company on social media and have followed the contest. I myself was not in the contest. However your contest results look very fishy. I will no longer follow your company nor buy any of your products. You should be ashamed of what you did. I know that word of your corrupt contest has spread well on on-line forums and I see I am not the only one that sees it this way. It is a shame that in such a small industry there are companies like yours that have no moral or ethical bone. I am sure you could careless that I took the time out of my day to write this complaint. But like fighting for my gun and hunting rights I make the time. As I make it a point to support those companies that are straight up. Thank you for your time.
Oh, my. It appears that "Natalie Dinnerson" has been disqualified and removed from the contest results.............
And there you have it....A company would never disqualify a legitimate entry for fear of a lawsuit if it was real...This company must be a complete POS and under financed to pull a scam over such a small prize investment. Lost a lot of business from those who saw this play out in real time....😎

Or perhaps Ms Dinnerson (assuming Ms is really a Natalie and not some Nathan wanting a new rifle) really did have bots working and put those parts on hoping to get a nudge from the sponsors.
Whatever it turns out to be, it seems bringing the issue to the forefront has straightened someone/thing out.
Final email to me from operators of the "2019 Levers We Love" contest:
Kimberly Devine Sat, Mar 2, 3:26 PM (1 day ago) to me
Hi Fred,
First off, I can assure you that we have nothing to do with Ms D or her submission on 2/14. I am more than livid with her and the other cheaters that were removed.
I can also assure you that neither our company nor Mad Pig Customs, who built the rifle and has it at their shop, nor Midwest Industries who provided the handguard, nor Aguila Ammo conspired to fake or rig a contest. We all have excellent reputations and would never sully them to stoop down so low.
I am keenly aware that those on the leaderboard were watching very closely. On 2/24, we heard from two and had Rivetworks do an audit. Top #1 and #2 were removed from the contest. In hindsight, we should have sent an email out to all explaining why they disappeared, to reconfirm the voting rules, and to remind people that Rivetworks IT would be doing a final audit before any winner was declared. We also could have asked people to come to us directly. See something, say something.
Most of Ms D’s votes came in the last 1.5 days of the contest. As such, Rivetworks could not audit until Friday. They took much longer than I liked for sure. Delaying the announcement of the winner until 6pm ET.
This was our very first contest and our first use of Rivetworks IT for one. While the system can’t do real-time auditing the bad apples were weeded out. And as you note, an honest person won the contest (and by a relatively large gap). In fact, the winner came to us directly re. the contest ending early. Seems, Rivetworks set the end time to UPC Greenwich vs. 11:59pm CST.
So I’ll take the blame for a non-perfect contest. And for not communicating better to ensure full disclosure. But there was no conspiracy. And no one is angrier at the cheaters than I am.
There should be an email going out soon to all participants with some discount codes.
