I may or may not have voted for Lachie Ross just because he was riding a bike. And I won't hold it against you if that is your reasoning..

I think someone posted a script for altering the vote counts previously.

If you know how to automate that, then I don't need to tell you what to do next...

Looks like it has been limited. Got in a good 20 votes before it stopped.

Hell, even a simple cookie would do. (Yes I know it can be deleted). Atleast it would stop simple refresh.

And 1 per IP is not always recommended, like in places of work and universities where they may share the same IP over multiple people.

There's always ways and means.... push it out to a friendly botnet for example...

Clicking a mouse for 30 seconds seems a little excessive? Weird world you live in.

Thanks guys - you all rock!! Sadly we need to find about 6000 more votes but we gave it a good nudge...

I'm sure a new wii would have just meant more time away from the bike, which is never a good thing anyway :scooter:

Aw, I tried! The other contestants got a real big boost too.
