Winning The Twitter War: #vancouvercannots

Derick* · 05-13-2011, 06:56 PM

So the official Canucks twitter choose #nowayjose as the official hashtag for the series.

We cannot let them win the clever hashtag war. Winning the hashtag war will be an important part of the Sharks' victory over the Canucks.

Go on twitter now and repeat #vancouvercannots until it's bigger than #nowayjose! Don't stop! Never surrender!

We don't want to divide our focus, that will only weaken us. Stick with #vancouvercannots I think. It has more of a ring anyway.

That hash scares me because I'm always short 3-4 characters

Ah well, time to try it out!

And just like the Ducks, once we start hating the Canucks, that's what the Tank will be chanting, I bet.

In fact, Twitter needs a speech-to-text feature ;-) Let all 17,652 fans tweet it by chanting that at the Tank.

I was in this camp a few months ago. Honestly though, it's pretty awesome. You don't have to actually tweet. at all. but following bay area athletes/writers ect, is very cool. any news that breaks will break on twitter first. hence, you're one of the first to be in the know! and if you're into fantasy sports it's great tool if you follow the right people.

there are some great comedians to follow as well.

I pretty much got on it to get sports news, follow comics, and get airline deals

It's picking up steam, thanks for your help guys, but we need to send more requests to official twitters (players, randhahn, official sharks twitter) so one will retweet it eventually and it can tip.

Awesome dude.

i've been retweeted by the enemy!

@vancouver_rt
RT @MikeInTheBay Sharks will put a dagger in Canada and knock out #Vancouver in 6 games. #Vancouvercannots

Derick* · 05-13-2011, 10:17 PM

It's just a bot. Maybe we should add #vancouver to our canuck-bashing tweets and spam it

**Shape** · 05-13-2011, 10:23 PM

@mikeinthebay
How many nots could a Vancouver cannot if they were the #Vancouvercannots ?

Derick* · 05-13-2011, 10:24 PM

Retweet it with he #vansjs tag too so more people will see it imo.

done!

OT but since this is twitter related do you guys have a good list of Sharks beat writers? I've been following reporters for the Preds/Hawks during those series. I know Helenenothelen does some but she seems focused on Ducks/Kings (though not now obviously)

sharksohnoes! · 05-13-2011, 11:26 PM

the hell is a hashtag?

5H4RK5 · 05-13-2011, 11:50 PM

Stop fooling around with that twitter Logan and get ready for Vancouver. Twitture.

Mafoofoo · 05-13-2011, 11:54 PM

Twitter trolling? I'll do to the Nucks official channel what I did to the Wings one. Mission accepted.

Arkansas Shark · 05-14-2011, 12:06 AM

Alright fellow Shark-aholics, I have contributed twice to the cause

Got a response from Brodie Brazil but he says he can't use it because his employer might not like it
