I was very pleased when I saw via the @BloggingGhana handle on twitter that Adventures (on twitter we’re @AdventureFrom) had been nominated in 3 categories for the Ghana Social Media awards – best activist blog (which particularly pleased me), best original content (which made me very happy), and best blog (which was like the cherry on top of the cake). This was until I decided to dig deeper into Blogging Ghana’s websites and looked at the results page and to my shock horror we are not leading in any of these categories. Yikes! Yes its an honour to be nominated, yes I am a fan of some of the other blogs that have been nominated but I still want ‘Adventures’ to win in all the categories we’ve been nominated for. I know a lot of our readers are ‘lurkers’ (and I say this lovingly), but this is the time to take out your finger…and vote for ‘Adventures’ by clicking here

I just voted. At first when I saw all the categories, I was stunned but I think it’s possible to vote for only the category where adventures has been nominated? At least that’s what I did & hope my vote won’t be discarded!
Thanks so much @Ekuba – Adventures was nominated in 3 categories, you might want to vote for us in all the 3 categories. I suspect its completely fine to only vote for the specific categories you want to support.
voted in all 3. hey is it possile to vote more than once? …probably not.. answered my own question.
anyhoos, VOTE PEOPLE VOTE!! adventures deserves to win in at least 2 of the 3 categories!!
Done, done and done!
Thanks @Nnenna and Ozohu. Spread the word, and get your friends to vote too 🙂
@ Nana D: y3 b3 to ama adventures wai, m3nnsuro aka no shaking! adventures all the way!! Infact, I can see adventures winning already (if we don’t win, we’ll sue for a recount lol)
off to the polls!
@Ekuba – Abi you know 🙂 Yay @Naa Adjeley
Thank you to everyone who has voted for Adventures in 3 categories so far. Now I need you to tell all your networks to do the same. If you check the results page via http://www.blogcampghana.com/social-media-awards/results/ you will see that Adventures is lagging far behind. This is the time to be proud of the fact that you love Adventures (and not to be shy about supporting this blog). Tell the world to vote for us via http://www.blogcampghana.com/voting/
Already voted! Somebody else actually asked me to vote for them, so I got to the page and realised adventures was listed. I am like damn! Definitely adventures.
Hahahaahah @purple tussle – Love it! Thank you so much. If you can, please encourage your friends to vote for Adventures too. *Hugs*
For some reason I haven’t been successful voting for adventures. I have tried thrice but each time the system rejects my votes although I try very hard to make sure that I type the letters at the end of the page correctly. Whats the secret for those of you who have successfully voted for Adventures?
Hi Kweku and All who have been trying to vote. This is the message I got from Edward of the Blogging Ghana team when I forwarded your comment:
“Hi Nana,
Thanks for your feedback. We have received a few of such complaints, unfortunately each time we check, the Captcha Page seems to be in a good condition. Nonetheless, we have taken out that step in the process. Voters will not longer be required to repeat what they see in the image.
You can please ask your fans to try again, since that stage is no longer in place.
Thanks for your patience Nana.”
Finally I have been able to vote for Adventures. The new system of voting is easier because all you need to validate your vote is to verify your email. Wink Wink hopefully Adventuresfrom will win a prize which you must share among all of us avid commenters ND.
@ Kweku- well done
