(favourite roles category, other categories not open for voting as of
19th Oct 2001)
IMPORTANT: You will need tvb.com online membership. Sign up if you
don't already have one. There are both English and Chinese versions
of the registration form. Here is the url:
http://app.tvb.com/member/registration/regform.asp
STEP ONE
Go to the tvb.com voting site.
url: http://www.tvb.com/anniversary
OR
http://tvcity.tvb.com/special/anniversary2001/rolevote/index.html
(I suggest you copy and past the address into a new browser window so
you can reference this page as you vote.)
When you get to the site you will see the following as your opening page.
(be patient, graphics heavy, load time long.)
NOTE
See the rectangle on the left of the page?
That's a floating rectangle which follows you as you scroll down the
page.
The picture will change depending on which picture your mouse touches.
STEP TWO
Next, go to the picture of the artist
you want which is Ada Choi of course :-) and click that picture.
NOTE
Go to the role you like and
click once so the the picture changes
and becomes clearer compared to the rest.
(compare circle picture to the rest of the picture.)
It
doesn't matter what the picture in the floating rectangle looks
like as long as the smaller picture is highlighted.
Ada is in the running for 3 roles, make
sure you pick all three.
The other two are as shown in the image below.
TO REPEAT:
She is in the running for 3 roles, they are...
026 - Ada as Jackie in HH2
079 - Ada as Ah Yee in OTTOO
108 - Ada as Ah Zhi in AR3
Make sure you pick 3.
STEP THREE
You have to pick 10 roles to get
the "vote button". So go ahead and pick another 7 roles.
NOTE:
The circled thumbnails represent some of the 10 roles you've picked.
I'm not suggesting you pick these roles except for the three Ada roles.
:-).
The thumbnails you picked should all be highlighted and clearer than the
rest of the thumbnails.
After you've pick 10, the vote button appears,
click it.
STEP FOUR
After you click the "vote" button, you should see the following
login page.
First fill in your details.
If you are from Hong Kong, fill in your ID number. If you aren't
from HK and don't have a HK ID number, just fill in A123456 (or whatever
alphabet/number you like).
You probably should fill in the same telephone number you used
in your registration information but it's probably not absolutely necessary.
1) Check that the thumbnail pictures are
the people you want to vote before you vote. (my selection is just an example)
2) This is your "VOTE" button. Once you hit this button, you've
sent your vote in.
3) This is a button that'll send you to the tvb.com membership
registration page if you have NOT yet registered. When you get there,
there is a button that says "ENGLISH." Click that and it'll bring
you to the registration page in English.
FINALLY
You should get a pop-up window that confirms
that your vote was successfully accepted. This is what it looks like...
FINAL WORDS
Don't take it too hard if she doesn't win anything. The awards are
probably fixed anyway and there are a ton of people that may win even if
they aren't fixed. It doesn't mean Ada isn't good, it just means that
those that didn't vote for her don't have any taste and they don't know how
to appreciate her. :-)
Of course I would like her to win at least something because I
feel that any award is an affirmation of a person's work. However,
even the Oscars are mostly about lobbying, not who's really good; what more
the TVB awards. Also, even thought these awards are more important than
your regular online poll, it's still not one of the bigger ones like the
Golden Horse or the HK Film Awards or the awards from the HK Film Critics
Assn or the Berlin Awards etc. So if she doesn't win anything, it's
not the end of the world. :-)
Enjoy.

solve those.
