John Chow: 1 Shoemoney: 0

written by John Chow on June 28, 2008

How one lazy bum made $176,697.50

The Top Affiliate challenge doesn’t officially start until Monday but already I fired off the first shot at Shoemoney. Each team is given their own blog for the show. The producer made the login password the same for every team. No doubt he assume we would change it, and I did. However, Shoemoney didn’t. Being as evil as I am, you can no doubt guess where this story is going.

If you check Shoemoney’s team blog, you’ll see a post that we assume was written by Shoemoney call Team XY7.COM for The Win!

OK, let’s face it. John Chow and Team XY7.COM is too strong. They got this thing in the bag. I don’t even know why I should bother to try and beat them.

We give up. Give the money to John Chow and Team XY7.COM now.

Shoemoney

I’m sure once Shoe sees the post, he’ll try to delete it. However, it’s going to be tough since the password has been changed. :twisted:

Please go comment on the post and remind the Shoe that a default password should always be change ASAP. :mrgreen:

Truly evil; you are always using your brain though…

Tom - StandOutBlogger.com June 28, 2008 at 9:55 pm

Pallab June 29, 2008 at 4:40 am

He id a devil, and a smart one! How the hell does he even come up with these ideas!

Btw, I hope he doesnt get penalised for cheating or something like that.

Abdul June 29, 2008 at 9:55 am

Is there anyway he can get the Blog back now??
Or is he doomed?

John Chow June 29, 2008 at 6:06 pm

I have control of his blog and I’m not giving it back to him. :twisted:

Ty Hurd June 29, 2008 at 8:26 pm

Clickusername June 28, 2008 at 9:15 pm

OCGolfCourse June 28, 2008 at 9:15 pm

Affiliate Confession June 29, 2008 at 7:24 am

Yes John, you are evil.

Start Blogging June 29, 2008 at 7:31 am

I saw that yesterday. People were actually angry with Shoemoney because “he” posted that. I guess it will be a little more tense in the competition. :lol:

Martin Hohenberg June 29, 2008 at 8:09 am

So, basically you are admitting a federal crime (18 U.S.C. §1030, I am not a lawyer) openly? Makes you look like a 10-year-old, though.

Zeke June 29, 2008 at 9:40 am

Hilarious. But aren’t you driving a LOT of traffic to their blog. Once they get up and running this post will still be sending them viewers.

Jonathan June 29, 2008 at 10:14 am

Oh my god, that’s hilarious!

fas June 29, 2008 at 10:31 am

John you are more evil then i thought when i read about your killings of the Panda’s.

eranda June 29, 2008 at 10:56 am

that’s a good one…it reminded me to change my pass again after giving it to a developer… :grin:

Clickusername June 29, 2008 at 1:20 pm

Be prepared when the other Shoe drops.

Nathaniel June 29, 2008 at 2:27 pm

Nice trick John! I hear you have control of the site now! Smart thinking does the trick!

Geiger June 29, 2008 at 3:13 pm

Evil indeed. No updates from Shoe yet!

BillyWarhol June 29, 2008 at 6:09 pm

LOLLLLLLLL that is Frigging Brilliant!!! Touche Pussycat!! :lol:

Haryo Prabowo June 29, 2008 at 7:21 pm

John, you really are like what people said ::
John Chow is the root of evil! :twisted:

AhTim June 29, 2008 at 11:36 pm

John, you’re too EVIL! :evil: Yet clever…

–blog for dream–

fas June 30, 2008 at 12:22 am

So has Shoemoney responded? Did he tell you anything John, he must be angry.

Nigerian Entrepreneur June 30, 2008 at 1:49 am

I used to wonder while some of your fans call you Genius. Now I understand. Some qualify it with evil. I don’t think that is an understatement. That was a fast one you pulled on shoemoney. cheers.

Daniel Ted Feliciano June 30, 2008 at 4:10 am

Go John Chow. Go beat the hell out of Shoemoney.

Siberia June 30, 2008 at 8:06 am

John Chow > Shoemoney :mrgreen:

fas June 30, 2008 at 12:35 pm

Just checked shoemoneys site, he hasnt responded yet.

Wess Stewart June 30, 2008 at 3:12 pm

Those are the kind of moves that got Donald Trump where he is today. Rock on.

Did you put your own ads on his blog? That would be dirty…lol.

Binary Ant July 1, 2008 at 2:05 am

lol this is incredible! :mrgreen: , I remember when cybercafes started with their ADSL lines most of them had their routers with the default admin and pasword… :mrgreen: … and the rest is topsecret ;)

Lyn Leckie-Matassa July 2, 2008 at 7:43 pm

Fancy even thinking to try and log in john!

Where is your sense of a fair playing field?

However I must admit it is quite funny and a surprise that the shoe didn’t change his password straight away. There is a lesson in this for us all change your passwords often…LOL!

Miguel Cangueiro July 3, 2008 at 2:48 am

Doctor Eeeeevil :lol:

Forumistan July 4, 2008 at 12:20 am

Poor Shoemoney :lol:

Blog-o-Ninja July 8, 2008 at 5:06 am

I think Shemoney is perhaps looking for some sympathy.

Waterproof Memo Boards July 8, 2008 at 1:13 pm

I feel sorry for Shoemoney…but then again I am sure he is capable of retaliating……
