One of the most hilarious things from the fandom.
So, this is a few weeks late, but I have to say thinking back on it makes me laugh pretty hard. So Purefandom.com did a ship tournament, and you could vote for one couple from The Originals and one from TVD. Since Delena was winning the TVD poll, kcers decided if they couldn’t win that they’d vote for Hayley and Elijah so Klamille would be losers along with them. The CKers that I’m friends with, didn’t even know you could vote more than once, so we lost that round. But not by much.
Then there was a bonus round, where the 2nd place finishers could then compete against each other to take that last wildcard slot. Which meant Klaus and Caroline were now up against Klaus and Cami. Reminder: Purefandom is VERY pro KC, meaning they wanted this win for them.
So anyways, KC is winning the poll and you see twitter rallying for it pretty hardcore, meanwhile the klamille fandom is being pretty casual about it, but staying at a steady percentage.
But when the evening came, Klamille shippers got their shit together and took over the poll. Which of course resulted in “it’s rigged!! they’re cheating!!11!” crying from kcers. Which, fyi, it is impossible to cheat on a poll when the website encourages you to vote multiple times. (It was extremely comical watching them contact the website saying we’re cheating, and then say they had 40 family members voting for them, and no way could Grandma Cami win this! *shakes fist*)
But we won. Fair and square.
Oh but the story doesn’t end there! The completely professional, unbiased kc shipping Purefandom sent this tweet of congratulations out to us!
You can’t write this shit.
So after we dragged the twitter account, they had to issue an apology and do a correction, while still kissing the ass of their precious ship. Because they had already predetermined they would win, and they weren’t about to have them not be in the spotlight for a second.
But too bad, cause Klamille won and so many panties were in a twist I could have used them as a rope to climb a 100-foot tall mountain.
All in all, it was a pretty hilarious span of a few days. Not only did they try to screw us over on the TO poll, it backfired because they had to be paired up against us and we beat them anyway. Then the site got to look bitter and unprofessional and we got to drag them too. Not too shabby for 5 klamsters.
