Question, are voting user gonna be checked so there aren't any cheaters as I find it odd that for every vote I get, Barracas gets one.

I find this odd.


In fact it's the opposite Every time I get one you get 2 or 3

Oh no, no, nothing against the admins and I would rather it be on votes since Barracas for sure would have won. I mean the users who did vote.

You never know but the other could make multiple accounts to boost their votes.


Uhm huhm

I will be checking IPs, for all entrants... Laughing

The phpBB database is junk for seeing who voted... One table tells me a user ID number and that they voted (not who for) and another table gives me the vote totals as shown at the top of the thread... Woo hoo, helpful.

Thats what I like to hear.

Thx

Which is it pal..
I just thought i'd come up with a theme and see what others would do and let the best one win..
It still was a fun contest regardless of the outcome..
But those that throw stones should make sure that they themselves do not live in glass houses..

These will be voided as well, unless a magical explanation is provided.

I can explain this one, that is a buddy who I asked if he could vote for me. I am not exactly sure why he made two accounts. I told him not to make more than one account on his computer but I guess in all his wisdom, he didn't care.

UH OH... 48 votes so far and I just ran my first thorough IP check...

The 5 people I was suspicious of because they all registered from gmail accounts, and all within 5 minutes, also happen to share one IP address:

whatyousaynow
12pack12
daemon6666
yummyummydfs
deviantdemon

Anyone want to offer an explanation?

Unless there is an amazing explanation, all of these votes will be voided.

These five, again, is one of my buddies, I told them to only make one account but noooo, "lets make more than one" they probably thought. Damnit I am gonna have to punch them in the head for being so freakin' dumb.
