I just went and voted for each and every "Flowering Font".

Sorry you did not get all the Flowering Font. It is beautiful. Hoping you get the rest of the font at some point either by votes or purchase. Maybe you can manage to put it in your schedule to get on Cute each and every night so you are able to catch the whole font. I love the site and I do try to catch up every day. If i don't, I get too far behind :-) Good luck with your fonts.

I did get them all ~ the missing one was miss filed. Was just trying to help others get theirs.

It seems cuties had better chances of getting the letter they needed when it was organized. As far as I'm concerned, there are far to many cuties asking for missed letters. If you have say six asking for missed letters and you want to be helpful and go and vote for them, you're really not helping anyone by voting for them all. Hope that makes sense. If you want the letter sooo bad, buy it. Or better yet buy the membership when you can. Ok, enuf said. Carol

We have had this discussion before. Everybody who registered can vote, and if some other group organises the voting well they are more likely to get what they want - that's not "purposely jeopardizing", that's properly organising. Voting for every letter does not make sense, it ups the score for all of them so you might as well not vote at all.

This has been kicked around before, and it became a big "us" vs "them" discussion. There are people who are registered here, who belong to other group forums that obviously band together well to vote for designs. Since it's opened to anyone who is signed up, them's the breaks, as they say. To think that there is sabotage gives them too much power.
As repeated often, paying a few dollars for some missed letters still makes the complete alphabet a really great deal. :)

I've wondered this myself, not just here but on other sites that have daily voting on fonts, even though I'm there daily there always seems to be a missing font? This just happened to me a couple of days ago, one font was totally missing even though it's voted on daily can't imagine that the group that is collecting them would want to miss out on fonts each series. Makes no sense :( I wonder if some other groups are picking letters they want and so a kind of sneak attack vote on a particular font?

You have to be a "Cutie" to vote.

Yes but you have just to register for that :o) I watched the comments at the christmas-B and now I think that many of them are not here at Cute at that time when these font was new for voting. So instead of flowers and rabbits we now have the stars für christmas ;-)

PS: I love the christmasfont. This was one of the reasons for my first membership...

There is certainly a wide variety of votes on differing alphas. I am missing the point you are making.
In the past, I have voted for my personal letter in a prior font, without making an appeal for that letter on cute.
Is it that your vote did not register right away?

For what it is worth, I just voted for each letter as well... hope that helps you test your theory.

It is maybe just a strange feeling that we have so many voting-request from cuties for floweringfontletters and then there are so high counts on letters from the christmasalpha. I think that is what capoodle means when she writes jeopardizing (I'm on the right train?). Maybe another embroiderygroup/forum makes a not very funny joke...

PS: Will vote slaos for the cuties with missing floweringletters (dl the pack cause I have a membership ;o).

Yes, that was what I meant. Was frustrated because I could not figure out who was voting for the "Christmas Font" when our cuties had only requested missing letters on the Flowering Font". While I found my missing letter in the wrong file I was trying to help the others with their missing ones. In all my time here on cute community I've never asked for a missing letter. I'm grateful for what I get and will buy what I don't have if I need it.

Look under "Top in 24 Hours" tab for the top ranking font.
