whats the frikkin score? I still don't see a way to find out other than looking at every single person and their vote totals.

The 'in private' browser votes don't show an IP address, so they took all of those away.

I've just pointed out to my friend that plenty of people use in private browsing all the time anyway, and that I hope they've taken votes away from others who might have been using 'in private' browsing to vote.

What??? Someone SCAMMING this competition??? I cannot believe such slanderous accusations. :D

lol...I know. You just wouldn't believe it would you?

OK, I have the story now. They deleted all the votes that didn't show up with an IP, which means there were probably plenty of legitimate votes deleted too.

So, if you've got 10 mins and you're still interested in helping out, vote up to 20 times, but make sure it's not in private.

It means you need to clear your cookies after every vote, so it's a bit more of a process, but if you can do it, it'd be awesome. :)

Working on it now ...

Awesome! :)

Two hours to go, Team cellar on 1300, second behind some dude on 1990. Aw crap. C'mon guys, charge for the line. I'm all voted out.

I don't think she's going to get there Zen. She's been ripped off by then taking away all the votes that were in private. Plenty of people do private browsing these days, so she's lost a lot of votes that way. :(

I hope I didn't contribute to a problem here with my suggestion. I will say, the reasoning for "deleting a vote that doesn't have an IP address because it is in private browsing mode" is bullshit. The remote computer system can and does know the IP address of your computer and mine or else it couldn't display the page at all. I don't know what did happen, but claiming "private browsing prevented us from seeing the IP address" is a weak canard.

Yeah, I don't want to say this is a crooked contest, but this is a crooked contest.

is this you glatt?

*looks around*

who, me?

Yeah. I think it's arbitrary that they just deleted half of the votes for one person and didn't seem to do it to any of the others.

how I read that.... ;)

Yeah, I agree, but she's not inclined to argue the point. Such is life. I'd be having something to say, and I said that if they deleted all her in private votes, they should do the same for all other contestants at the very least.

I think it really sux to be honest, and I feel really annoyed personally because I think she's dirty at me in a way because so many votes were deleted, but on the flip side, her votes has stalled till my boys got involved, but I don't think she's really considered that.

Kinda sucks when you try to help out a friend and it all goes belly up.

Sorry for you Ali, sorry for her.
I so wanted this to end in success.
