I can't even find out where to register!
This is the most horribly thought-out site EVER.

Please, someone tell me how to register an account so I can vote. Thanks.

I'm having trouble, too, I was able to vote last week just fine, and now I can't seem to vote. Clicking on the tally hall picture doesnt seem to do anything, and I can't see anywhere to sign in, any help?

Woah! I just realized what the problem is.....
DON'T USE FIREFOX!!!!

I tried loading it up in Safari and the vote button finally appeared! Clicking it will lead you to how to register.
HAH. What an awful, awful, awful idea to hold such an event but not allow the most popular web browser to render it properly. Good going, MTV.

Oh perfect, now, where did I put internet explorer, Oh yea, I banished it, *grumble grumble*

Alright, well, voting ends Wednesday, and as far as we can tell, its unlimited voting per person, so I propose a Skype/Voting event tuesday night. That seems like the most logical date, since there isn't too much time.

It's too bad the official website isn't up, it would be a lot easier getting information about all this voting stuff out, but oh well.

Lines 4-5: But remember, only one vote per person will be counted-choose carefully!

TIME TO VOTE! ...again.
so they didn't get nominated for best pop video.
but there's still a chance for best new artist!
so vote!
(oh, and since there are 8 pages of potential nominees, it works best if you look at them in alphabetical order)

So after we vote we can't do much but I guess we can pump up the views for Good Day so it can make it's way closer to the top of that most viewed list that I think is the default.

Yes and I have the same issue on two computers using FF. Perhaps it's only the Mac + Firefox combo? Are you on a PC?

Firefox + PC doesn't work for me, although it did the first week of this mtv voting thing

The page loads. Well, it all loads..... but the pink VOTE button doesn't show up beneath the photos. Vertically, it goes: PHOTO, BLANK SPACE, INFO. BUt then on Safari, the pink button fills in the blank space. Pretty weird. Maybe its something to do with AdBlock?

Sounds like it. Ooo when are the results of this one?

Unfortunately, the results are in.
They are not one of the nominees.
However, video of the year? We can make it happen.
We just need to spread the word.
A lot.

Well... that's too bad. At least they were even nominated to be nominated!
