clarifications about winning

i read a certain comment on a blog about my winning entry on a challenge that i started. she said she wanted to borrow my crazed voters for the next round.

well, frankly, i don't own my voters and to top it all, i dont campaign and i do not dictate them to vote for me. i am not so desperate to win because i am the challenger.

as a challenger, i tried my best to solicit prizes so that the winner would feel happy! though the prize is just a piece of icing, i was so excited for the winner ( which i know would not be me definitely). i took time to get the prize even in the nick of time... all for the winner herself...i was eyeing for that somebody in the first place.

until i found out i was way ahead with 3 votes. never did i campaign. never did i ask help or anything because i feel i don't need to. i was the challenger, it was like i am the judge of all because i hold the prize...

and so to be commented upon that i own those crazed voters would be the most disgraceful thing to say to someone who has no intention of doing something like that. for me, this is an insult. this is just like you are hitting the wrong person...

my friends dont see me as a malingerer; nor do they see me as someone trying to make her way out when all fails. they know me. i am never like that.

and if those crazed voters out there voted for me more than what they voted, that is not my control anymore. it would not be my fault either because i do not know them. maybe she is a fan, a stalker for all i care...

i dont own them or her and if you want to borrow them or her, its all yours to keep.

Galit ata ah! Mukhang natamaan naman ako dito sa post mo. I ask kasi my friends if they can vote for my Kaya challenge entry. Well nasa kanila naman na if they will vote for me or hindi. Tagos hanggang likod ah!

grabe naman kasi yung comment na yun. no problem naman to ask people to vote for you pero what she said was really out of line. alam naman naming di ka ganun eh so wag mo na lang pansinin yun wala lang magawa yun.

ay guilty din ako since i campaigned and asked friends to vote for me -- but you are right. you don't own the voters. when i asked them to vote, i did gave them the option to vote for others if they want to. and some of them did vote for the other entries except that of my entry.

we are a group of people that's supposed to be united because we all have something we are all passionate about. i hope people would respect that there are times one would win, regardless of the reason. as scrapbookers, we are supposed to be a family - being happy for one's blessings and not be bitter about it.

take care, cabbie. you are one great scrapbooker.

ladies. thank you for reading my entry about my sentiments.and for those who ym me to soothe my adrenalin rising, i am touched. first and foremost, it is okay to campaign. there is nothing with that because this is a polling situation. i find nothing wrong with that. the issue would start when the finger pointed at you seems to go out of hand.. thats why i reacted. but you ladies are all good scrappers. i can understand the passion we are going through right now and hoping this be continued. im sorry if i pierced your hearts with my words, it was not my intention to do so.
