No! This ain’t about differential and integral calculus that make many engineering and science students curse Newton and Leibniz in inventing them. It’s the mathematics of chaddiction and all that jazz!
It’s about obtaining the most efficient click-per-second in an online voting for Charice; the question whether hitting F5 buys more time than hitting other category and back; the calculation of time differences among all chasters to come up with the best timing to successfully trend anything about Charice on Twitter; the estimation of N/S, the ratio of number of browsers opened versus the speed of your internet connection to amplify YouTube’s view counter of Charice’s MTVs and videos and the likes.
When all that matters in online popularity competitions is statistics, the math of chaddiction plays a vital role in bagging home the trophy. We chasters aren’t as massive as the ‘monsters’, the ‘beliebers’ or the ‘swifties’. While it is true that there is strength in numbers, in the cyber traffic where a physical count doesn’t necessarily equate to a virtual count, it all winds down to battle of the wits.
When that certain Indonesian website included Charice in their poll in late last year featuring heavyweights in the music industry like Taylor Swift, Lady Gaga and Britney, who would have thought Charice would top the race? The fandom from the other sides may be massive but if they have only a click or two per person, then no wonder they lagged behind since they were only generating a linear line on the graph. Every chaster on the other hand had clicked as much as hundreds of swifties combined clicks so we still got the win no matter how underdog and outnumbered we were. In the Cartesian coordinate system, Mr Linear was no match to Mr Exponential.
2012 Nickelodeon Kids’ Choice Awards should be no different story. But since Indonesians, Malaysians and Koreans maybe as hungry as we are and considering many of Charice’s fans from those countries may root for their own stars, we have to be so efficient in our methodology of clicking. We may start analysing whether clicking a category and back after each voting saves more time than hitting F5 or refresh. This was observed by a certain chaster and was brought up in CM and kudos to her, I found her method more efficient with my current connection speed. Hitting F5 gives me 10-15 seconds per vote (plus refresh time) while clicking on any category and clicking back to Charice’s category yields a stunning 3 seconds cycle! It is also good to consider whether voting while working on other stuffs in your PC/laptop (that includes chatting on CM) generate more votes rather than either vote or work in any given time. I have calculated that allocating 15 minutes for purely voting will generate more votes than one hour of voting while chatting and doing paperworks.
There had been numerous attempts to trend Charice, or anything about her, especially when she had incoming shows or songs. Chasters fairly had a share in that category over the past years but still most of the attempts didn’t come out as how they wanted to. This iffy and complex mechanics of setting a trending topic is like gigantic barrier that needs furious and calculating minds to break. Considering the time differences of all chasters should give a clue as what time of the 24-hour day has the most numbers of chasters online. Any attempt to launch a trending topic with only few chasters concentrated in a tiny place would give a slim chance of success. And if this tactic’s coupled by the ever reliable power of multiple clicking/typing per chaster, chances of success should be way higher.
The mathematics of chaddiction is most helpful in amplifying the generation of YouTube viewer counter for Charice’s videos. More parameters have to be considered in opening multiple browsers to generate more views. The internet connection speed is the limit of all these. Opening only 3 browsers with your computer and connection speed smoothly catching up with the required video streaming is way more efficient than opening 10 browsers plagued with heavy lag time.
We chasters take pride in our ingenious ways of showcasing Charice to more and more people and to the whole world. There is just so much beauty and inspiration coming from that tiny and humble being for us to not tell about her. But with the ever increasing complexity and difficulty of global competition for our princess Charice, pure passion, unquenchable desire and unparalleled loyalty will not be enough without our ingenuity and wittiness.
Not to worry, the mathematics of chaddiction doesn’t require us to solve for X and Y but only for C which stands for CHARICE.
Keep on voting Charice as Favorite Asian Act for 2012 Nickelodeon Kids’ Choice Awards.

Please let us be honest if Charice’s latest album can’t even last 5 or 10 weeks in the Philippine music charts. Do you still expect it will last in Japan or best in the US?
I’m just being realistic but neither am I a pessimist. Let’s not put a lot of expectations from Charice that she will be the biggest star in the US in the next couple of years.
Take note that Western fans is still having a hard time embracing Asian talents no matter how ridiculously good we are at almost everything. Voting Online as many as we can would help her a bit, but it will definitely backfire eventually.
Imagine Charice receiving an award in the “US” due to overwhelming number of votes and at the back of each audiences mind they say “Who’s she?”
Let’s warm the oven first before putting the food
peace!

“Talk about life coming full circle — and that too before you’ve even properly hit 20. Later this year, after she’s wrapped up the Asian leg of her Infinity Tour — which includes a gig in Dubai on Friday — Filipino sensation Charice Pempengco will sit on the judging table of her country’s version of reality singing show X Factor.”
WHAT??? Her being a judge on Filipino X factor is the worst thing ever! Sorry, but this seems to be telling me she’s focusing on an Asian career. Tell me it isn’t true. Does anyone have any take on this news?

So I can only hope that my thoughts don’t get to many red hands because I have no interest to “comply” or anything.
I am opposing the franchise machineries of FOX TV for a lot of cultural and political reasons, which is off topic.
Charice on Pinoy X Factor well if it’s good and she decides she can help some newcomers and entertain her audience, so that’s ok to me.
But as a European observing our own particular difficult fate I have difficulty to understand why Charice should give up on her own country just because she could _perhaps_ be more successful somewhere else, or at least make more money, on recommendation of folks who already gave up for personal reasons and make a better living e.g. in America.
Her endeavour is cultural, musical, idealistic (because she need not work any more with the money already earned), and political in the meaning that she lives a dream that should not have any national tag or monopoly. She made it big from a poor situation and fought to be accepted and rarely someone has achieved more, except perhaps a few guys like our own Frank Stronach which is a different era and different industry.
What I feel, it must be dangerous and difficult to leave home for good. It goes very deep into ones inner identity and motivation. To me, this explains some difficulties and how Charice can appear a bit exhausted.
To me, her best concert ever was the Valentine with Ryan C.
It had the most power, and best personality and credibility.
Life is boring without change. But where is our best energy? How far can we go away from that?
Many times I heard Charice tell that success in the Philippines is a major wish and motivation to her.
So, for my taste and feeling, I love what Charice does as a 100% domestic person. American productions were all nice and wonderful, but the real goosebumps factor for me is definitely the genuine style.

I used the link that was posted by someone here at Charicemania. Does anyone have a valid and tested link from someone who’s accessed it here in US? Can we vote?
As for her hair, well the one in the video does look like a greenish wig but the picture of her in PJWhite’s webpage looks like her real hair… so who knows. She may have a surprise for us all.

Hi ttyl! I’m in the US and able to vote. Your computer settings might need some resetting. Or the error you countered might have been a glitch as the site gets bogged down sometimes. When that happens, if you have Twitter, tweet Nickelodion2012 and ask them to fix it. That’s what I’ve done. So far no glitches. Here’s the link:

I agree; I’m a little bit a science fiction fanatic myself and mesmerized at the sight of some characters in well made costumes in sci-fi movies/series. Charice stated a few times that she wants to do scary movies and I hope she does sci-fi movies.

Okay, here is the proof that Charice is wearing a wig. It’s a different color wig but the style is the same. I hope that CM won’t delete the fan made video tribute to Mom Racquel.

I agree with you ttyl, Charice is beyond PI intertainment industry and her calibre is of world standard – comparable with the big names such as Celline, Whitney, Mariah Gaga etc..
If you notice, her bullies or bashers are Filipinos in the Phils and they find it hard to understand the world picture, thinking that Charice has to fit in only into their little and often inconsistent standards
