Roundup At the HubNuggets Corral
80Yeeeeehaw!
Yes, we've done the western theme before but it just never gets old. I do, but it doesn't. :)
This week, we've rounded up ten of the best little hubs published in the past week by our newest hubbers. They did the hard part writin' and laying them out all purdy for ya and we tracked 'em down and roped them in. You get the easy stuff. All you have to do is read, enjoy and vote. That's right, all you have to do is to cast a vote for your favourite hub. It's not always easy to choose just one of these little beauties but only one you must select. So, check their teeth and hooves and help decide who's gonna get top spot in the roundup.
Okay, now that we've done the corraling, get on done there ↓ and get reading. Your vote tabulation will tell us which five hubs you think are the ones we should dub winners. Those five will receive exposure to more than 40,000 readers in our weekly newsletter. You just can't beat that with a whip!
C'mon In, Pardner!

Yip, yip, yip, yahooo! I done went and voted, y'all. Now, off to the saloon for a sarsaparilla for me and my horse.
I was just happily "promoting" my nominated hub by emailing a "vote for my hub..." message to my fans when I noticed the red letters saying No multiple emails etc.. your account may be closed.
Help!
I stopped immediately but what if I noticed that warning too late? HubPages are really clever at keeping our nerves tight.
Well, maybe some of you guys and gals will vote for my hub A VIOLENT MARRIAGE, the last one on the list, before they close me down.
howdy Shirley, thanks for the wannabe nomination - it's a hubnugget ho down! : )
Your enthusiasm is contagious! How does one choose from so many great hubs?
Done my bit dearest Shirley.
Howdy! I cast my vote :-)

Wellllll, doggies! 41 votes already! Thanks to all you pardners who mosey-ed on in here ta do a little clickin'. We surely do appreciate it.
Sue, you can blog, Stumble, FB, tell all your friends, relatives and co-workers, anything like that but you can't leave links in the forums or comments or do a mass emailing because that's considered spam. If you're concerned about your account, you can send a note/question to the HP staff. They're very nice and friendly. :)
Congrats and good luck to all of our Wannabes!
Another great lot of picks you guys, my vote is cast !
Voted, voted, voted. Ooops, I mean I voted only once! Great job everyone! Thumbs up Shirley. I had fun galloping on my white horse than riding my usual hubmobile pick up! Hehehe
Thank you riplemaker and redelf for commenting on A VIOLENT MARRIAGE.
Unfortunately I have been banned from the forums for 3 days for overpromoting this hubnugget wannabe. Thank you Sherley for info. Meanwhile I see that Princessa and Laura and a few others are supporting me on the weekly hubmob forum and I want to thank them very much but cannot do so in person on the forum. Frustrating what?

Enjoy, have a good laugh.
Sue
The video ends with "Maintenant nous savons", now we know. Didn't we always know?
Waalll, we shor did corral a passel o' votes already on this one! Mighty excitin'! Easy to git yor britches in an uproar and overpromote, but liv 'n' lern, y'know. Have a sasparilla!
Hey, my hub may be down on votes, but that's fine. I'm just happy to have been invited into the casting. And I guess I'd also like to think that any votes I get are down to the article itself, rather than favouritism by friends and family, so to speak. Thanks to anyone that has voted for me already and any that opt to do so. It really is appreciated.
Howdy, TonyBooth - promote when ya can, but y'know, these nuggets come from among a herd of 1500 - 2500 or more! You're some kind o' winner at that alone.
For someone who has just started out in this business, this is great validation. Thanks HubNugget Team!
Thanks everyone for voting and supporting our Wannabes this week.
Sue, I'm sorry you've had some probs with the promotion part of this! Not to worry though, you've got some good news coming to you. :)
