Electronic voting is supposed to stop all of those chad problems. Of course, in the E3 website, vote, then hit back and vote again. Put Civ3 into first place.------------------ Its okay to smile; you're in America now |

You think they'd at least record your IP address or something to minimise repeat votes!! But, hey, it's Civ3!! We should all vote twice, or thrice....etc etc |

Civ III is now so far out in front I feel I ought to counter this blatant ballot stuffing by voting 40 times for each of the other choices  [This message has been edited by Grumbold (edited May 09, 2001).] |

Obviously someone cheated to put Max Payne in front of WarCraft III. So I guess you are all justified to cheat to put Civ III in front of that Max game. |

Ooops ! Looking at the graph I'm thinking that maybe we over-did it. It just looks too flagrant. I mean, there's vote rigging and then their is really obvious vote rigging. (All you Americans will know what I mean). :-) |

Being from Chicago, yes we know how to rig an election. Just ask "Tricky Dicky" or any other Republican that has run in the last 50 years.The trick is to always win by an embarassing amount, so when it continues to happen, no one gets suspicious, and no one thinks a recount would change anything. And make sure that all the names on gravestones are still on the voters registry. If they were still alive, we know how they'd vote so there is no reason why they shouldn't be counted.  RAH Who's vote never gets counted since he is a Republican.

Well, my voting is done for a little while. When I logged onto the site, it was at 47.7% CivIII. A few dozen "vote-and-backpage" later, Vic3 is at 50% Ah, the joys of ballot stuffing. I should live in Florida. In the words of the old Irish political bosses in NYC, "Vote early and vote often" |

Hmm well Civ is ahead of AoM by a little at the moment but it now takes a lot of votes to shift the margin by a noticable amount. |

There is no need to hit the back button either! Just hit "Reload" or press F5 (CTRL+R in Netscape) and then enter, over and over again in quick succession! I'm up to almost fifty votes a minute here! [This message has been edited by Snapcase (edited May 11, 2001).] |

The first vote is made by an imposter (He has a hard blankspace as the first blankspace) MarkG must ban him before he does any more bad things.
