plz vote me

@sandeep Well I used :-P Smiley by mistake.. No sarcasm :) :)

@Sandeep Ur great observer man.. Did you work in any detective agencies? :) Well even i'll use =) :-P

@ Sandeep : We both are heading off to Scotland Yard right away !!! We have new job openings there :), basically i will be an intern and you the pro..... Your observations are ballistically precise and definetly your statement is a KILLER

@ radiosandeep
Lol! I notice that now =)
A lot of them are my chat pals :)

The exclamatory marks? :) Guess they were excited when they read I'd applied for a job in SA =D
The smileys? Its either :) or =) .. The second one looks cuter on gtalk ;) my fav chat client. :)

And as for the short comments. It was haggling enough to convince them to vote. some of them who did do it wholeheartedly took their time to write it out. :)

and the overall issue about the smileys?

You know "A smile is infectious" :D


@ all
I apologise if I have caused any bad feelings. :) I will be regular here I promise you that =)

Adding to Point 2 in my previous comment, i have just stumbled upon another observation. Gautam in fact has the habit of including many smileys in his writing, as can be seen in his comments below.
And in reference to point 4, i once again see that it is he who has used the =) format of the smiley, whereas none of the others havent....

This is not to rake up any new controversy or doubt anyone's integrity, but on going through Gautam's references on http://www.royalchallengers.com/cricket-online-contests/ffc3/gautam-krishnamurthy, i find certain interesting patterns:
1) Many (or most) of the refs are short one-liners not reflecting a real reference, suggestive of them being written in haste.
2) Most refs end with a smiley. How come a randomly chosen sample of people all have the same style of writing?
3) Almost every ref has exclamation marks. Once again, same doubt as above.
4) In many refs, the smileys are in the form of =) instead of the usual :) or :-). I would think that the former is not so common..

Btw, this comment is purely for entertainment purposes only and is not intended to fuel the controversy further :-)

I really need to stop posting from the moderator account...! Sorry about that - nidhi@rcb

Hmm. Okay guys, I feel like the comments are going no where. If this was a discussion forum thread, I would close it. OH hey - I can close commenting on this post.... I think everyone has made their point, let's end this discussion with some amount of humility now eh?


Remember: the main reason we have the audition in Bangalore is to gauge whether or now we can work with the finalist in a high-pressure situation.

@ Docsom

Mate regards to your good work ( application only ), but am sure there is a tinge of remorse for reacting to an untrue situation ( according to you ), all of us have to follow the Comm Managers ( Ground Rule ) and should have waited for the verdict. Every comment given to you would have been sealed off with elegance.

I don't see how witholding my reactions would have helped :)
There were undue criticisms spoken without a careful glance at the application.

I just sprang in to protect my intellectual property :)

Its natural. otherwise the world wouldn't have had copyrights =)

@ radiosandeep..
Thank you :D

@Gautam: more than anything on this site, i love reading your comments! They are killer!!! :-)

@ Raghunath
A guy is a guy dude. Cram thoughts in him and make him write. He is still basically a guy :P

Regarding your comments at Natasha and Nidhi, I was just tensed man. I put in a lot of hard work and I wasn't going to let it go without a fight and unfortunately I too over-reacted and I apologise!

I was just taking care of my application and Others were busy trying to take care of theirs.
Its like a mother's care when a threat looms over her child. :)

Young blood indeed is hot. But seriously man. White mischief gals are hotter :P


@ Natasha
Sorry about my outburst too. I was plain worried that is all. =)


@ Docsom
Sure man, Will go through the rulebook :)

@ Allen
Thanks man :P
LOL!

In my view, Gautam passes the ‘RCB Loyalty’ test - I guess we don’t need to doubt that! He qualifies under one or more of the criteria I have defined in my post “Flirting, Romance…”


@Natasha @Nidhi


I do not see any reason why you’ve to be so apologetic about your “perfectly acceptable post”. In the past, you have posted “genuine looking fake applicants”. This time you posted “fake looking genuine applicant”. We all understand he spirit with which you posted - because we know the history and culture of the club.


I remember, in every contest without exception, you have been picking something that catches your atention as unusual and have posted is as a poser and challenge to the fans to figure it out!


Don’t punish yourself, don’t apologize if a newbie here gets trigger-happy on Day 1 just because he/she doesn’t know the traditon, culture and practices of the RCB Fan Club!


That’s precisely what everyone is trying to tell here! One has to breathe this air, swim this water for a certain period of time - before you can mount him/her on a pedestal. Otherwise they will call names to everyone - dog, wolf, etc etc., make a 100 enemies, bask in glory (because the jury doesn’t read these pages!) and vanish.

Al the above are general comments - not specific to Gautam.


Gautam has writing skills - none would doubt that. Thinker and writer! If only you can think before you write and not just how much to write, this website will be a better place for all


Young blood is hot! And some people never get old!!

Omg... Well, This filled up my Inbox for sure :)
Gautham, Go to SA... You don't deserve to be here :D
Just Kidding.. All the best for ur application :)

@All

One night I go to bed early and Whoa! The World Has Changed!! by the time I visit the site again!!!

Too much to read, c u all later in the night!!

@Gautam: I apologize for all of this confusion that was caused. Clarifying all of it in the updated section of my post.. Read the post again.. :)

Whoa!!! This is a turmoil, most of you have had a rugged night am sure about that..... Is it required?
Natasha came up with a simple open ended question and would have declared the fact asap, but the Comm Managers have ended up apologizing..... this is really sad :( All this mud-sledging has happened over loss of emotional balance.
@Gautam: Mate regards to your good work ( application only ), but am sure there is a tinge of remorse for reacting to an untrue situation ( according to you ), all of us have to follow the Comm Managers ( Ground Rule ) and should have waited for the verdict. Every comment given to you would have been sealed off with elegance.

@ Other: He is a new fan, well let’s not get to him like this. He is a part of our club and we also have good reference from Rakesh, whom all of us know.
I had two of my friends comment on this word bargain and they belong to CSK and MI, it’s not nice for us to portray this ugly picture of RCB to the world outside.

@Comm Managers: Please do not encourage these arguments on the site, because at the end of this we have a sorry face from all the angle. From the external point of view this is real fun and we are like the funny people in the funny world. This is not what RCB is made up of. I was really shocked to see the whole event unfold this morning on the website.
Hope I have reached you people with the right intent, let’s just get together and work towards the common goal..... sure we need to smile and lend a helping hand to each other :)

@Gautam You must have been up all night here in the site :)

@wizardprince

He’s my school mate for 10 years smile And yeah the votes are real.. smile I know him very well..
Posted by rakesh-katti on 07/27 at 05:48 PM"

Rakesh backed me. I owe him one =)

@ Wizardprince
I understand your concern and your skepticism but the fact that I wasn't approached even though my blog, facebook and Email id's were provided for reference and contacts sake irked me.

I shall quote my all time favorite writer Sir Arthur Conan Doyle here when I say

"It is a capital mistake to theorize before one has data. Insensibly one begins to twist facts to suit theories, instead of theories to suit facts."

Without an inkling of true or false, blatantly arguing about one's integrity and his work is a disgrace not only to the individual but also to the one making that vile comment.

It is unfortunate that things had to take such a drastic turn, I had just begun to dig into my dinner when I got Rakesh's message. :)

I would have stayed calm if it weren't for rumour mills churning out what seemed to be quite a lot of hypotheses. =)

I apologise if my anger has caused heartache to anyone here. I sincerely do.

If I were in that position, I'd have waited for the truth to come out i.e. Natasha unveiling the results before letting myself loose on the poor soul :D

"The family you mentioned doesn’t really warm up to its new members."

The family indeed warms up to its new members. See the reaction you are getting as soon as you appeared as a member.

Prior to writing these comments, you were not even here and that was the reason why people got skeptic. Instead of feeling sad, hurt or angry, now try and understand why others said what they said. Having clarified yourself, now just chill and write bro.

@ Gautam : Dear, its not that I am against you or anyone else or have any authority to doubt anyone's genuineness. However, just for a moment, give it a thought.

"In the entire duration of last FFC, the most popular guy hardly got the number of votes that you have notched up and you are a person unknown to virtually everyone apart from your classmate Rakesh. There was no comment, msg or write-up from you on the site. Would that create doubt in the minds or not? Especially when there have been fakes in the past and there is a clear knowledge that voting through fake ids is very easy.

In one comment, even your friend Rakesh has mentioned that he is not sure of your votes being genuine. Yes, you are a very good writer and it is good to have popular and talented people like you on the fan club. I know it feels bad when one gets undue criticism, but, you can understand why everyone raised eyebrows at your meteoric collection of votes.

Nothing against you. You yourself have written "My friend, a computer expert told me that votes are majorly credited through a low key javascript and that he could up my votes in an instant." This fact is known to others too and isn't that a reason why one would doubt you? Especially when even after applying here, you didn't appear visible on the site.

"I tried being friendly for a change".

I hope that 'tried' becomes a present tense and you stay friendly and do well on the site. If you were in place of the other fans, you would have reacted the same way. All the best to you, the presence of a talented guy like you in the arena, makes the contest even more special (You are well networked too :)

Thanks for bestowing the privilege of an individual comment, compared to a common address to everyone else :).

@ Comm managers
I cant seem to view how many votes I've got. Can you fix the glitch? :)

@gautam you should see us when Dravid doesn't play in a match ;) [re: hot-headed family]

Regd. being mean to newcomers - see my new post. And hey, 1:43am, g'night you guys :)

Uff everything settled :) No more wars on our RCB forum again :P

@ nidhi again
I do not see any sense seriously :p
You gals! both of you knew I was 100% real.
Yet make a post of it? for fun's sake? Sheesh!! Plain sad and bad !!

Well in a way its good, atleast it helped me get to know some people of the community without even actually knowing them eh ;)

Sorry for my outburst. I hate being called a liar. :)
Its a natural thing but my temper isn't exactly breezy :D

@ Nidhi.
If I may comment. with an exception of few.
The family you mentioned doesn't really warm up to its new members.
A point to be noted.

I am new. So call me spammer, faker, disloyal amongst other things..
*whew*
One hot headed family at best :P
Guys chill down.
Its a competition! Loads of time still left!
=)

Okay read through everything, and all gautam's anger is directed (and rightfully so) at the community managers. PHEW! Am I allowed to shortlist him for his wonderfully worded defense?? :) I've been (silently) following some of the discussions on the various blog posts, and find the brotherhood (sibling-hood?) commendable. this site has grown so much from FFC1, it really has become a family (@raghu knows what i mean) ;)

@Gautam - really though, we were extremely impressed by your app. we've run these contests for a while now, and yes our first reaction (sadly?) was to verify your votes. It was only after we verified that they were real that we put up this post. Apologies again. Now to go fix that javascript issue you so kindly publicized ;)

*

The debate on how active a fan is during off-season has reached the team management and I think it merits a blog post on it's own. Check for a new blog post on the same in the next few minutes.

@ nakul-kamath

"I think the votes are real…Did some investigation on Facebook. 656 friends on Facebook. He has lots of siblings too, and even some of the siblings’ pals seem to have voted for him. The votes look genuine…but the CMs really seem surprised about all this smile"

All true my man! =)

Whoa. It'll take me a few minutes to digest and respond. Before I do that, wanted to apologize to Gautam. Natasha was planning on revealing tomorrow that all his votes, are in fact, REAL. We were planning on making him a mini-celebrity for doing such a great job. Looks like it backfired on us. Major apologies.

@ Docsom and Allen-abhishek and Katti

I've a phrase that describes you guys best..

"Hold onto to that hope. There may be light, soon, at the end of the tunnel."

Thanks guys =) means a lot =)

@ the Community Managers Natasha and Nidhi

I am speechless.
Community managers do not put somebody's application out for show and tell just because it has beaten past records. Do they?

There must be, I believe that as Community Managers there must prevail a sense of moral obligation of verifying the data i.e the written content and its merit before ogling at the three figure vote number and deeming that it some scandal at its very best.

Its disappointing.

I had high hopes that this was a community that wanted the best.

I will give you a scenario. Yes I like scenarios

"I write a damn good application and I submit it. I do nothing about it. I let it stagnate and hope to come by some votes. I do get some votes eventually by some poor forlorn soul who happened to land accidentally to my application page and then I lose the contest due to lack of votes despite my merit [ which will be judged by god-knows-what-method and I hope the merit doesn't secretly mean votes as well]"

okay I've lost in this scenario. Who then gives a paise worth of thought about what I've written?


I would also like you to see the F.A.Q's of the contest. :) I have flouted no rules and this is in the least disrespectful to a lawful submission to a fair contest.

If you think I'm wrong, Go ahead. Feed me to a pack of hypocrites who don't want their application to be read because they think its pure spamming. Throw me down a cliff into a valley of spikes just because the number of votes I've garnered have crossed your expectations for a vote count [which was very low btw].
When I saw that Aneesh had gotten 150 votes last time and a few referrals. I was shocked. yes.
I saw my fb list. I saw nearly 600 people and you know what I thought?
I got to get atleast 300 people supporting me. Its going to be a tough fight, with so many aspirants for the race.
I was saddened when I read these comments and I kid you not.
I expected competition. Not whining.



I brought nearly 200 people to this community in 2 to 3 days.
Thats called passion to work. I have slogged to write that application, recheck the syntax by stayin up late till 6 am for more than 2 nights, thats dedication.

I know that for a fact. Believe me. but in any case Verify that for me would you? I'll give you guys a photo to get started and a topic name would be

"2 nights till 6 am and 3-4 days for FFC3's 200 odd votes.. TRUTH OR LIE"

I am saddened and hurt. Deeply. yes.

@ Zeitgiest

I am aghast. A name like ZEITGIEST and you speak with no relevance or any informed data.
I wonder if you even had time to go through my application after ogling at the number of votes.

Its sad. ZEITGIEST - I think you've named it after the documentaries. It speaks the truth.

I loved the documentaries. :) even the Addendum :)
Real eye openers

Sir, but the irony of the matter is that you are not "ZEITGEIST" [yes that is how it is spelled] The spirit of the times :)

Please show me how it is EVIDENT that my votes are fake :)

I fail to comprehend neither your logic nor your simple 6 worded comment :)

@ allen-abhishek

I really appreciate your ability to measure a person by his worth and not by how many votes he has gained man!
cheers! looking forward to meeting you in Amoeba =)

@ disha-shetty

yes I know. I have a lot of friends. Was a facebook addict too :)
Kind of helped me out. you know, friends have your back. =)

yes, again. :)
Not fake =)


@ Raghunath
Thanks for the compliment . I am indeed referring to "EXCELLENT APPLICATION".
and No :) neither Natasha nor Nidhi had anything to do with my write up.
Well thats partially true.

I went through Nidhi's application for the photographer and was bowled over by the simplicity and power of her answer to the first question. :)

@ nakul-kamath.

I'd like to go through your process of verification "FOR BEING A TRUE RCB FAN"

try making an app on facebook okay? I'l try passing :)

1) You're fan status isn't determined by how often or not you post. If that's your criterion I am really very sorry.
Because, my grandpa follows cricket 24/7 ESPN, NEOSPORTS and what not. He even catches Sports news in news channels.
He supports RCB too.
Sadly in your eyes, he doesnt qualify to be a cricket fan because he doesn't have a facebook account :D

Now you're thinking "gautam you have a facebook account . You are a member here. Why aren't you posting? "

I'm learning =)
I've been through the blogs of Aneesh Surrender and yes I am awed by his writing skills
Obviously You cannot believe that because I have not even left a comment saying "gautam was here and I read this"

=)
I will tell you this.
I joined this community on 22nd July 2010.
I'm new. Cut me some slack :)

Cool answer buddy. :) Cheers..

@ Rakesh Katti.
I thank you for sticking up for me pal.
and I know its kind of a bad thing. You have been active in RCB and I've joined in just recently.

I apologise for any inconvenience maga.
=)
I swear when I say this to you.

1) I did not cheat. I painstakingly wrote my article and quite well ahead so that I could concentrate on garnering votes :)

2) I have the same amount of friends as you do in facebook and I just shared in facebook :)

ask any of our mutual friends if i asked them for any mumbo jumbo extra votes :)

@ Wizardprince

My humblest regards to you sir. Ever thought that a person who wanted a cheapskate entry to the contest would spend 5 nights editing and re-editing his documents which he though should have been submitted way before July 22nd?

If you are worried about your Internet Bandwidth sir, I must say I am inclined to suggest an unlimited connection. Works out quite well for me.
=)

and yes
I quote from the FAQ

15. How do I get votes?
Aha! We aren’t going to help you with that!! That’s your job. You ask them to sign up, vote for you, get references, share on facebook, twitter, your blog, talk about your profile everywhere you go. Make your profile impressive and you will get votes. Get it featured and you’ll get more votes.

mark the words.

Share on facebook.

I did just that, in case anybody is wondering how I did it.

I tried being friendly for a change :)

@ all

I'll make this clear.
Yes. All my votes are quite real.
I was not aware of this thread until Rakesh my school mate messaged me about it.

First of all, let me make it clear.

1) I write. I write good. And I am damned proud of that. Anyone who thinks I'm plagiarising or doing any such nonsense as to copying of material from other sites. you can use copyscape to go through my document and make sure for your benefit that I haven't flicked it.

2) I was recently introduced to this contest by my friend and yes I wanted to take part. Isn't that what all contests are about? There is a contest. You are interested when you hear about it and you take part.
Thats the basic logic isn't it? Why create a contest that says "Enter all RCB fans if you WANT to restrict it to a group of people who post their disagreements in a forum, just because the person DID GOOD?"

As for Natasha, Yes! You can check if my votes are legit or not. :)
BTW You will find out that it is.

3) For all the skeptics. Please read the F.A.Q carefully :).
I have adhered to all rules. Please read the Question on voting as well :)
You will find out after I wrote my blog. I did not sit around and wait for votes to come to drop into my basket without putting any work on getting them.

Its a two way procedure,

1) Writing something to make up the application
2) Get credibility by asking friends and whoever you know by getting votes

I did those 2 steps. nearly 200 votes. :)
I've got friends who trust me. A family who cares. and frankly I am just plain sad that people have gone on to degrade my application by referring to my worthiness based on my activeness in the community.


Another set of points worth noting.

1) See. I am not the one to go cribbing just because somebody else did better than me. Okay?
I will not judge him nor try any cheap tactic that would lead to his downfall. Its called a sense of fair play.

2) When a race is held and the whistle is blown. The runners run. The hardest trained runner beats all others. Does the Athletic Federation stop a runner from getting the first place when another person stops midway and says "That guy runs too fast. Put him somewhere else?"

3) Yes, much to your disappointment. This site is hackable. My friend, a computer expert told me that votes are majorly credited through a low key javascript and that he could up my votes in an instant.
I declined. Why? Again. Sense of fair play. If you want that picture of my Facebook wall, I will provide you with that . Yes, Natasha. Offer holds good for you too. :)

4) Why did I take part in this contest? Yes. Chance to be with the team and that too in South Africa and write about them. That is the job description and I like it. Isn't that why everyone else are applying too? :) I'd be happy to see one person come in and say " I will be the Chief Blogger for RCB by staying at home and donating my trip cost and amenities to the charity"

Another reason why I joined? I wanted to be part of a community that met up often, kept talking and is fun. I wanted to be in a fun group and get to know people from all around and interact with them.
I LIKE PEOPLE and I LIKE INTERACTING.

5) I would like to ask. Who is a true fan according to you?

The one who remembers what ball what cricketer hit what shot? The one who says "that was plain wrong selection. I would have gone with this team set"? or the one who runs 1km home in rain just so that he wouldn't miss the coin toss?

I say none of this. Each one has our own definition. Nobody will ever match in what they think is a true fan.I know I'm a true fan of RCB. Why? Because when the team lost the semifinals to MI, I felt bereaved. Struck by grief. No, I didn't take console immediately about the champions league qualification but yes. I was cursing the team. I was cursing that day because I had all my hopes pinned onto the red and gold and it came tumbling down like a pack of cards. Its my sense of grief at times of loss that gives me the feel of the propriety I have for anything I care about.

I got to know I am a true fan of RCB then. Thats my story :)

Whats yours?

Even I wish some Loyal RCBian win it :)

@ Raghu, yeah you are right dear. It does make me wonder if I really need to start shouting "vote for me" in fb streets and send my manifesto to all of you.

I am not even second place as I know another guy in the Blogger category who has got about 30 votes or so and he was introduced to the site by me. All it takes is an email id, that's it. Though, I am too lazy and reluctant to clog the internet and to eat into the less than 5 billion remaining email ids that will exhaust the current bandwidth of the www.

Forget everything else, the genuineness of the guy and how keen he is about being a member of this fan club, is evident from the fact that he is yet to make any appearance here. He has not responded to this thread or any. :)

And, I have never seen Gautam on the RC site before...EVER! Nothing on his Facebook profile page suggests that he is an RC fan. Hmmm...can't wait to see the verdict...

I think the votes are real...Did some investigation on Facebook. 656 friends on Facebook. He has lots of siblings too, and even some of the siblings' pals seem to have voted for him. The votes look genuine...but the CMs really seem surprised about all this :)

Even I dunno if the votes are real or fake but he really has very good networking skills :)

@raghu Nope I din't give him any support in this votes. Because even am one of the contestant and wondering how to get into the final audition. And my application is still half done :)

You know, I wouldn't put it past Nidhi to do something like that! ;)

@Raghu - best comment ever!



seriously, at the end of the year, we need a "best comment by @Raghu" awards!

lmao Raghu...

My theory on this is:

Nidhi prepared an "excellent application" as a 'model applicant', created a user called "Gautam BK" and uploaded the application. She then contacted her "trusted confidant", Rakesh Katti and told him the game plan and requested him to 'endorse Gautam BK' if and when required! No wonder this guy follows Rakesh Katti!

Nidhi then told the backend IT team of her plan and they would have been requested to give frequent PL/SQL updates on the database to increase the vote count from time to time.

Isn't this enough to scare Wizardprice (2nd placed at 10 votes!) and many others and spur them into action - "Network, Communicate, Beg-Borrow-Steal Votes"

Joke Only, but I won't be surprised if I am right! Because I would have done something similar if I had been in her place.

@Raghu Anybody can sign up, There is a verification process alright, but that's only under MGM, and it has to be triggered on by the member who wants to redeem the prize. Wonder what is the prize for CLT20 MGM, if it's a trip to SA, I see this guy winning. On your list of voting a "yes" for the final 9 bloggers?


From the looks of it the votes look real, but then I wouldn't be surprised to see some of them faking votes just for the sake of winning an entry into the final audition.


MGM announcement should simply double the number of fans signed up online, guess the tech team will be busy through out CLT20 :)

He's my school mate for 10 years :) And yeah the votes are real.. :) I know him very well..

Well written application. I haven't voted to anyone, I haven't applied but I assume voting would require each voter to sign up as a fan on the site and there would some kind of verification of the telephone number. If so, not easy to fake 100+ votes especially assuming a verification process is in place.

So with Gautam B K kind of "fans" signing up, RCB should zoom to 100K fans in no time. Wonder what it means to activity on this site!

The application is well written. VOTES!! This guy seems to have huge network to have amassed them. Won't be amazed if they turn out to be fake though. FFC1 contestants did have a few confessions, post the Contest, aptly timed by nidhi then :P

I just went through his Blog.. He seems to write well :)

Hmmm you are right allen, but why will anyone try to fake at this level of competition. I would look at the positive side of it, but if he has faked them, trust me its not a nice world to be around. Indeed he has written really well, bright prospect i should add on

You neva know.. He has written well.. And yeah...
Only the Mods would know whether the votes are real :)

176 is just amazing and it shows the depth of his networking skills..... Way to go mate, way to go.... cheers

This is incredible, he already has more votes than the highest number of votes notched up by anyone in the last FFC. Some guys are incredibly popular or..

Btw, Vote for me yaar! I also need at least 17.6 votes :P

votes are fake,,, its so evident

he's up to 176 votes!! :| WOW!
