I am still in the grey on FP, yet I made answer of the day today on a suggestion that only had one star from a pixelated avatar.

Oh, the gray FP. Somehow they had us believe this was because a few bad apples posted bad pictures that screwed all of us (or was that Jezebel with a concerted effort to exert control over every single one of these blogs?). And it fucked them and fucked us, i.e. I won’t go to blog pages where I can’t comment in, you know, actual legible type and they can’t advertise to me ever again.

As if Kotaku and Gizmodo and some of these sites weren’t absolute shit to begin with—-now they’ve de-incentivized actually visiting the site. I am amazed taht Gawker makes enough ad money to employ anyone.

Plus the Ford Focus ad up top was blocking my login and password input boxes.

You’re extremely lucky. I thought a couple stars on my really good suggestion would help me earn a slot on AOTD…I was very mistaken.

I got 140 stars and recommendations from Ballaban and Orlove on one of mine. Didn’t make it. It’s not the stars, it’s how they like the answer.

So then I guess Jalopnik doesn’t like the Hyundai Genesis, cause that was my suggestion for one.

I think Jalopnik has to follow you or one of the writers, I am out of the grey on Foxtrop Alpha and Truck Yeah but still buried on the FP

Or it wasn’t the best answer.

Judging by how the Miata won the AOTD in question we all should just post Miatas for everyone.
