Title: Carly's friends list project
jennie - November 19, 2008 08:13 PM (GMT)
As everyone knows Marie has said she would like to see 20,000 by Christmas, even just a big amount of friends for Carly. Well, if you go to Carly’s personal myspace you will see in her blog that she mentions she wants us to help her out on this. Tali has been great and started this with David Cook’s friends.
I am putting a list of artists that we can go to and work on their friends lists at this moment until we finish these up, then more will be posted. What I will need you guys to do is fill this out so we can add what you want to do at the top, but please don’t start until we have it on the list and everyone make sure you check the list so you don’t try to do the exact same people on the artists friends list.
And all you will have to do is send a message to each of them about Carly and her music page, along with a link. If you are a fan of one of the artists they are added to even mention something that may be Carly related or congratulate them on their artists albums release in sales.
Just fill this exactly as is: (example will be at the end)
Your Screen Name (Name):
Artist:
How many pages?:
Example:
Mrs. Smithson (Carly)
Michael Johns
1-100
**Keep in mind you do not have to do that many, you decide the amount you want to do. If you are going to work on an artist that is already being worked on, just make sure you look at the list and see where that person is stopping at and start where they leave off.
Here is the list of artists friends list to start working on. The finished and claimed pages of friends are listed below.

Carlysmyidol (Amy)
Michael Johns
1-50 (my computer is very slow so 100 might take forever)
I have a question-how do we get to their friends lists? I don't know any of their MySpace page addresses so I wasn't sure if you guys were going to list them? Also, do you have to be on their friends list to send messages to their friends? Thanks.

jennie - November 19, 2008 10:09 PM (GMT)
here is an example from what tali has said to a few
Hey! Check out Carly Smithson's Official Music MySpace:
www. myspace. com/carlysmithsononlyofficialpage
to get all the latest news and stay updated, NEW music soon!And don't forget to add her to your friend list :)
another example would be..
Hey! I heard about David Cook's amazing sells and bought his cd myself! It's really good and wanted to congratulate you guys for getting him where he is at! And since you seem to be into the rock music listening to David Cook and if you seen Carly Smithson on Idol as well and enjoyed her music or are interested in what she has coming up with her new album check out her official music myspace and add her to keep updated with the latest news and such!

carlysmyidol - November 19, 2008 10:29 PM (GMT)
Should we go ahead and start sending messages now or wait until we get more names on the project list? I was going to start on some pages tonight. Thanks.
jennie - November 19, 2008 11:41 PM (GMT)
Shelly - November 20, 2008 12:24 AM (GMT)
I'll take my girl Vanessa!
ETA: OKay, Vanessa has 2,080 pages of friends. I'll take 1-50 for now. :)
Cheryl - November 20, 2008 12:34 AM (GMT)
I'll do Celine. Put me down for 1-50. If I can take more after that I'll let you know :)
Cheryl
carlysmyidol - November 20, 2008 12:39 AM (GMT)
I said to put me for 1-50 on Michael Johns cuz my computer is really slow on MySpace, but I'll add more if it looks like it's going faster than I expected.
I know we need to get these done as soon as we can, but is there a time limit on when we should finish (just wondering)?
Cheryl - November 20, 2008 01:05 AM (GMT)
Oh my god. Celine has 1072 pages of friends. :::rolls up sleeves::: This may take a while!
Cheryl
Tali - November 20, 2008 01:09 AM (GMT)
Every artist has like, 5000 pages :haha: so I don't think we have a time limit, lol. it's unreal. We should just get as many people as possible :yes:
Oh and I believe after page 1000 it start repeating itself so...we will be stopped evantually :haha:

you can always go to other messageboards and spread the word, places like evanescence and avril lavigne fanforums, even celine dion. everything helps! :)
jennie - November 20, 2008 01:49 PM (GMT)
yeah we have a lot of pages to go through! But we can do it!
After I finish up the michael johns friends list that i've been working on I'll go with another artist friends that haven't been worked on yet. I can't remember if I put Evanescence up there or not, but anyways if so i'll probably do some of them. I have the whole weekend off so I can't a whole lot done in that time.

Just putting a note in to say I'm really, really madly busy the next 10 days (probably won't be online at all most of next week) but once things calm down a bit, I'll do whatever I can to help :)

Doing good and starting to make headway now that I figured out how to keep the link pasted into message,now that I got it things will go alot faster.Just started today and on page 7.
carlysmyidol - November 20, 2008 11:34 PM (GMT)
Is it just my computer being slow or does it seem to take a while to do each page? Maybe I'm doing something wrong-I click on the person's profile (which usually takes forever to come up) and then click on send message and paste the message. Then you have to type the scrambled letters (is there any way to get around doing this?) and then send message. Am I doing this right or do you guys have any advice/suggestions on how I can make it work faster? Thanks.

awesome Nancy. we're moving pretty fast :wave:
Amy - here's what I do. When I put my mouse on a person's picture, it will say where he is from, his age, and there will be 2 oprtions. one is to add this person, and one to send him a message. I right click on the send message option and then 'open in a new window' (or something like that, lol). that way the message page is open without going into the profile. I never go in the profiles cause it would take FOREVER.
I open 4 each time, paste the message and send it :yes: there isn't a way to get around the letters thing though.
Hope it helps :)
carlysmyidol - November 21, 2008 12:03 AM (GMT)
Cool. Thanks for the advice Tali. I will try that tonight when I work on my pages. Now I feel really dumb for not knowing you could do it that way (DUH)!! :wall: :hitcomputer: Thanks again.
Cheryl - November 21, 2008 12:09 AM (GMT)
Tali, that message trick is amazing. I was opening all the profiles. that little button is SO much faster!!!!
THANK YOU!
Judith - no worries. We know when you have time you'll be here. There will be plenty of people left to message!!!!!
carlysmyidol - November 21, 2008 05:58 AM (GMT)
Thanks again for the advice Tali. I'm moving along much faster than I was and I should be able to get alot done this weekend. :) :carly:
smiling eyes - November 21, 2008 11:25 AM (GMT)
Carly's list is growing slowly,but it's growing 8963 this morning.Go Carly Fans!
Just like to say I went into Carly's friends to see and good news I see people I;ve messaged signed her as a friend.YEA!
Anyone one that wants to help is welcome. Even if you can only do 5 or ten pages will be a big help.All help is appreciated. :hug: :carly:
smiling eyes - November 21, 2008 11:49 AM (GMT)
Last night I also went through my own page and messaged all the bands,some of those signed as well.
jennie - November 21, 2008 01:35 PM (GMT)
Nancy that's great! Keep up the hard work everyone!
I'm about to work on another set today as well once I get an email out.
I'm starting on Evanescence... and wow! 483132 fans!! This is really going to take awhile.. :P
carlysmyidol - November 21, 2008 02:31 PM (GMT)
I think what we're doing will really help-I have seen some of the MJ friends that I messaged have already joined her page. Some of them have added me too and sent comments thanking me for the information on Carly. Cool. Keep up the good work guys. :flower: :carly:
Tali - November 21, 2008 04:07 PM (GMT)
glad it helped you guys :)
It's growing slowly but at least we know we ARE making progress :yes:
good job so far :thumbsup:
