Neighborhoodie of the Week (Redux)

[Chris Kula]

but we seem to be catching up.

I cast a vote for Dyna sometime last week.

 

[General McLean]

My browser has Dyna up by over a thousand...Say it's so.

Hey! I didn't realize you could vote once a day.

 

[Purnell]

by 2000!

Free Elections Rule!

 

[Ute Giddeon]

Yep, we got 'em. With 6 minutes to go, he won't beat Dyna's lead. Eat it, fetal Delaney.

 

[Ute Giddeon]

You can still vote. His count has gone up by about 100 since 11:00 AM.

 

[donweasel]

chernus is still riding the comfortable lead i gave him last night. michael and caitlin will cry.

 

[Ute Giddeon]

He's continuing to climb. By the time I finish posting this, he'll probably have closed Dyna's lead to less than a thousand.

 

[donweasel]

you can keep clicking the vote button and it will often count as more than one

You might be seeing the results of other people voting at the same time.

 

[donweasel]

not unless there were seventeen other people voting for chernus at three this morning.

 

[Will Zone]

Dyna was winning, but this kid just got 70 votes in the past 4 seconds.

 

[Whines]

I wonder how he does it? His votes jump by like 50 at a time sometimes, and then just 1 or 2. Curious.

 

[Ute Giddeon]

"Jim" is closing the poll "right now."

I noticed that too. It's eratic.

 

[Whines]

Well, I think he won. Look at his votes jump right at the end! Like 30/40 at a shot! So weird. For some reason, I'm obsessed with learning how to beat this system, and clearly I have not figured it out. Sucka Emcee is an annoying but effective cheater!

i had my macro going. I think dyna lost by like 70 votes last i saw.

what a Sucka Mecee...

 

[EpicZero]

If the poll ended at 11 am like it was supposed to, Dyna would have won.

 

[Ute Giddeon]

I would guess that he's using multiple computers, but if he was, why the erratic rate of increase? Maybe he has 2 computers- one he can dedicate to the task, but the other he can only use in small bursts (while he using it for something else).

I called the company a few minutes ago. Jim, their web guy, looked at it and acknowledged that Dyna won.

I was hesitant to do it, because I didn't want to call attention to the obvious exploitation of the system. But I called just before Sucka's votes exceeded hers, so I had nothing to lose. I think she'll win.

 

[mullaney]

Perhaps I should offer them the code I use for the improv top 50, it's much harder to jam the votes. Doesn't use cookies.

Social engineering! The obsessiveness impresses me! I still wish I knew Sucka's strategy.
