AC Reader's Choice Awards
RokofAges75:
You didn't set any limits, so I did vote more than once because there were some categories where it was too hard to choose... there was more than one I wanted to vote for! But I've voted for all my faves now, so I'm good LOL. I hope no one's trying to rig the polls, cause really, what's the point? Then it's no longer "Reader's Choice" - it's "Who is most desperate to win?"
cabybakes:
I voted more than once too...
Chaos:
Yeah I really think it more a rule to stop people from voting for themselves (or their best friend) 200 times a day than to stop anyone from putting in a vote for 2 different stories in the same category...
cabybakes:
Can you go in and limit it to one per IP address? And, for that matter, delete multiple votes from one IP address?
RokofAges75:
Makes sense. It doesn't look like it's been abused too much, if at all; most of the categories seem to have a reasonable competition going on.
The last time I hosted my own awards, which was in 2003, this group of writers came in and totally found a way around my polls, which I thought you couldn't vote in more than once a day (turns out you could if you cleared your cookies or dialed-up again or something... it took some effort, but it was possible), and rigged them so that they won every category they were nominated in. I'd never even heard of them before then, so I knew they weren't just uber-popular and guaranteed to get a lot of votes. I was so pissed, that was the last time I even bothered.
