This is a link post Rick Astley For MTV Europe Music Award's Best Act Ever!
So, the MTV awards are back again and it's time to vote, but what if Rick Astley was to win 'Best Act Ever'? Well now he can!

Some WoW playing brain (not me) has created a script that allows you to Rick Roll the MTV awards.

Step 1: Go to the website ema.mtv.co.uk/vote/#

Step 2:Go to the bottom right of the site to the 'Nominate' section and select 'Best Act Ever'. Then type in 'Rick Astley. (Like this) and vote.

Step 3: On the same window go to the url bar and copy and paste the code from reply number 45 from here (until I figure out how to post HTML without it being interpreted)
into it. Press Enter and watch the votes be counted.


If this has been posted before, I apologise.

Edit: Step 3, is that counting or voting? Cos if it is I got to 45 and thought fuck it, I can't see how that can be counting votes??

This is a normal post Looked at the code
... and it submits a vote via HTML and increments value v by 1 ... hence the count (and the submissions)!

Whoever thought of this is a genius.

This is a normal post If Rick Astley wins
they'll know it's an internet jape, then they'll throw out the votes.

This is a normal post Well, after you vote it says,
"Vote again to make sure your favourite becomes a nominee".

This is a normal post IIRC Greenpeace wanted people to name a whale on their site
and b3ta decided he should be called "Mr Splashy Pants".

And it won.

This is a normal post But
Isn't this just about nominating Rick Astley? MTV is definitely going to ignore it.

I'm surprised many of the so-called "Best Act EVER" nominees have only been around since 2006.

But you can always rely on Rick.
