It would be interesting to see a graph of the voting. Sudden large jumps in vote count would seem to indicate "machine" voting.Thank you all for continuing to vote. I was afraid this would happen, seems like every time Sherman gets ahead the competition suddenly gets 500 + votes in just a couple of hours. hmmm...
In post #47, Rane said they think someone is "turbo voting". I sense some cheating is going on!It would be interesting to see a graph of the voting. Sudden large jumps in vote count would seem to indicate "machine" voting.
Report it!One of the competitions friends actually posted on the Frenchie's owner's FB page about " turbo voting again "
I tried that yesterday and it didn't appear to work for me. Maybe Gurps or someone else has some insight.I am not exactly sure, I looked it up online , its a way to cheat the system , it involves removing cookies, then refreshing the web page , thus being able to vote multiple times, sounds like cheating to me but I am not sure.
I did, sent an email and the screenshot to the magazine last Friday.Report it!
Sounds like you should do it again.I did, sent an email and the screenshot to the magazine last Friday.
I can understand that, but with Sherman, his votes have been coming in at a slow and steady pace whereas the competition's votes have jumped 300, 400+ votes in the span of an hour , this has happened at least 3 times over the last week or so.Perhaps the other entry's owners have also tapped into a local forum to have people vote for their dog as often as possible. Imagine them watching your dog gain 400 votes in a short time. They probably think the same thing, that something nefarious is going on.
