The phone gods were mischievous , told The AP in 2002 after dialing 1,000 times in an heroic but failed effort to save contestant Ryan Starr

The right to vote isn't at issue with "American Idol
Too late Fox is doubling the window of voting opportunity, from two to four hours, for next week's May 25-26 finale
There is one network concession to the crunch
But for true "American Idol" fanatics, there is only an abiding interest in making sure their choice wins They dialed, lightning fast, as the last strains of the chipper "Idol" theme song faded
That fact applies whenever a flurry of calls are generated, whether for a TV show, a California earthquake or other major event , commented Tuesday via e-mail On the 15th call, a vote was finally cast for Trias And again
Try again Of the 24 million votes cast, according to Fox, Studdard won by 134,000
So did reporters from The Associated Press
Phone congestion has been a thorn in the side of "Idol" viewers and a mixed blessing for Fox Votes also can be cast through AT&T Wireless text messaging, which has avoided traffic jams 11, 2001, when it handled nearly 431 million calls And again
Hearing repeated busy signals is akin to banging your head against a wall; it can make you nuts, fan or not
"You've got to be realistic on this, people," urged Kevin Laverty, a spokesman for Verizon
It wasn't any easier from neutral territory Between 9 and 9:20 p m But beleaguered phone systems, trying to slurp up a tsunami of calls with a straw, can't help but choke It's been that way from the show's start three seasons ago
"The national telephone system utilized for voting on 'American Idol' features the most sophisticated technology available," the network said in a statement Tuesday "
Pauley said he wasn't sure that Fox had an obligation or means of fixing the problem EDT, 79 calls resulted in busy signals, while three led to loud beeps and a blinking "CALL FAILED" message
In last year's showdown between finalists Ruben Studdard and Clay Aiken, viewers had an extra hour to vote â€â€? and that still wasn't enough " It's the fight to vote that counts
Also, suspicions were roused after several of the most talented contestants got the ax, raising questions about vote manipulation, intentional or otherwise, by overeager viewers
That indicates a logjam in which millions of potential votes never got through
Fox stands by its plan, and by American know-how
"I woke up the next morning and my thumb and index finger were still jerking back and forth But after hanging up, the phone went dead for 17 minutes The contest that started with 70,000 contenders will end up bestowing a record contract on the winner
In Hawaii, 14 attempts from the capital city of Honolulu were met by busy signals or a recording announcing "all circuits are busy now" and inviting the caller to try again later
Scientific advancements aren't needed to feed the optimism of true "American Idol" believers
Viewers can vote repeatedly in a two-hour window following the show's conclusion in their time zone
"It is a flawed system at best," viewer Lawrence Pauley of Huntington, W After Fantasia, Diana and Jasmine sang their hearts out Tuesday night, tens of millions of fans rushed to phone in votes and decide the Fox TV talent contest's two finalists
"I'll keep trying," Janice Neal of Snellville said Tuesday as she attempted to vote for hometown girl DeGarmo and Jasmine Trias of Mililani, Hawaii A total of four votes were cast
Georgia was downright spooky He points out, reasonably, that other emergency calls and related services need to be protected in the public interest , Diana DeGarmo of Snellville, Ga A bleating noise sounded the cruel message: The line's busy, chump )
If Verizon heedlessly slammed AT&T with excessive calls it could jam the network, Laverty said Tuesday "He who has the fastest finger or the most sophisticated redialing system will cast the most votes Each week, tens of millions of calls are "received and fairly tallied," with the votes of computer-assisted power-dialers identified and discounted, Fox said The very first call from Raleigh, N C 23 million were completed â€â€? a 21 percent improvement over the previous week, he said As soon as the dial tone returned, a call to the "Idol" line led to a busy signal and another dead line, this time for four minutes
