if cheaters are discovered, will they be banned from future contests? seems like the Dr. is spending more time and effort than anticipated to keeping this a fair contest.
that's not  right |

In my opinion cheaters should not be allowed to win, but there might be a really magical explination for this. I always knew that voting for people is not the best way to pick a winner, because a lot of people can cheat. There are several websites available that can change your IP and hide your real one. So many ways to cheat, ayayay.  I don't want to talk things about other people, because it is not my favorite thing, but if it is like this already then it is. |

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.

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.

I find this odd. |
In fact it's the opposite Every time I get one you get 2 or 3

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

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..

 What now?
All I know I am not cheating; its not my fault some people aren't bright and decide to make more than one account. After all I did not say multiple votes on one IP will not count when I posted on other forums asking for votes.
