Read over the last page or two, there are at least 35 votes from a certain maltais we think - suspiciously enough, new forum members with the names maltais1-35 had all joined right around when the flood of votes for GY!BE came in. |

I believe someone has cheated in all of the polls and we think we know who it is.

I just looked at it...what I'm wondering is who would do all that to rig a poll on PA? Ugh, trolls... |

This is just sad. Rush should be awarded victory by default, but if this happens again with the other polls, I doubt that the tournament can continue properly.

I've listened to GY!BE but don't really see what the big deal is. They're okay, but I'm voting for Rush.
By the way, I didn't feel this was worth mentioning before but in light of what is going on now, I might as well. Back when it was GY!BE versus Tool, towards the end of the poll, I had a growing suspicion that there was somebody making accounts just to sway the results. I could be wrong; just thought I would mention it. They did make a surprising and sudden comeback, after all. |

It is I! I have determined the outcome of every poll made in this forum since 2008! Kneel before my power! I guess I should have voted for GYBE.

I would guess a few of them at least, seems like they may be practical jokers who like to keep the polls tied, I'll let you know when they have been banned, I'm keeping the lines open in case they want to come clean. P.S. I don't think its Henry |

That's too bad about the troll posters...it was a very cool poll series, I like this one for sure. It will not stop me from coming back to it though....

Sorry that I'm a little bit late. I was ill yesterday to the point that I couldn't convince to get on the computer. Yes, it may appear that they are tied, but somebody created around 50 puppet accounts just to vote for GY!BE. Please ignore what the poll says.

^ Apparently the same thing was done for Rush, see pages 3 and 4. They went from almost a tie to double the votes for Rush practically overnight. You should give it a rematch, really.
