December 11, 200817 yr oh dear, woke up this morning to find us behind. (((hugs))) to the anchorman though, it was great to see his announcement up there on the official site.
December 11, 200817 yr 49-51???? GUYS MORE VOTES!!!! I was warned by the site that any automated votes will be invalidated! :(
December 11, 200817 yr 49-51???? GUYS MORE VOTES!!!! I was warned by the site that any automated votes will be invalidated! :( Yes, there's now a message on the site telling people not to vote more than once! We're still behind! :cry: I can't think of any more people to email about it.
December 11, 200817 yr we're closeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! we could easily still win if people VOTEVOTEVOTE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
December 11, 200817 yr GAH our playlist is soooo much better than theirs how are we losing :thinking: :bigcry:
December 11, 200817 yr I was warned by the site that any automated votes will be invalidated! :( automated votes.. meaning what? people that voted more than once?
December 11, 200817 yr automated votes.. meaning what? people that voted more than once? Exactly. This is what it says: PLEASE NOTE: Only one vote per person is permitted. Automated entries will be invalidated, including multiple votes from the same IP range. Read the Rock-Off rules.
December 11, 200817 yr I think automated votes are like spam - that's why they have that individual code that you have to type in, so that it has to be done by a person, not by computer. That doesn't make sense, does it? I know what I mean, I just can't explain it.
December 11, 200817 yr the people on the muse board have given up on multipe voting, and it seems like they have no one left to vote for them... so if we can just advertise this thing enough.. we can probably win :pleased:
December 11, 200817 yr it jumped from coldplay: 49% muse: 51% to THAT ^^^^^ in like one minute... my only guess is that the absolute radio site was sorting through all the multiple votes.. and elimating them... and since the muse fansite only has like 5 people voting, over and over, that put them way behind.... once all the fake votes were take out. :confused: I don't know if I explained that well.... but I think that's what happened :D

Na-na-naaaaa damn it's creepy how this vote just lit up my whole day :stunned: WOOOO!! :dance:
December 11, 200817 yr Wowzers. :stunned: Yeah, if it jumped like that, they probably started checking ips.
December 11, 200817 yr I just hope it doesn't swing madly the other way... (When are we going to get a smiley for crossed fingers? It would be so useful!)
December 11, 200817 yr STILL VOTING!!! 4 more hours guys!!! Lets not give up! I already asked my friends to vote! :D
December 11, 200817 yr 1088 days??? Wow, my boyfriend thought I was being obsessive counting down the days to our concert... counting the days since the last one? That's true devotion! I only ocunted it up today :lol: Exactly. This is what it says: PLEASE NOTE: Only one vote per person is permitted. Automated entries will be invalidated, including multiple votes from the same IP range. Read the Rock-Off rules. Does that mean that Ian & my votes will be discounted :cry: He uses his laptop & I have the PC but we're both connected to the same broadband so preusmably will have the same IP address :confused: STILL VOTING!!! 4 more hours guys!!! Lets not give up! I already asked my friends to vote! :D no point voting more than once because they'll be removed.
December 11, 200817 yr Interesting note on the Muse site Originally Posted by Mark_A Hi tracybs & TheMuseSmurf, Muse Smurf, as you know, we’ve been helping the guys at Absolute Radio with the organization of the Rock-Off. Below is a note from Anthony, the digital media editor at Absolute Radio, regarding the changes in the live result percentage numbers that have occurred over the last hour or so. Hi all at the Muse messageboard, As some of you have seen, the live results figures in the Coldplaying vs Muse Messageboard have changed somewhat in the last hour or so. This is because we have gone back through our voting system, and removed duplicate votes. We got the word out to everyone earlier today that we were seeing suspicious activity, but it continued after then, so to keep the competition fair (and to keep to the rules, which you can find on the Rock-Off pages) we are removing any votes that are clearly duplicates. Of course, any and all genuine votes are not effected and are still being counted. Rgds, Anthony. While its up to you, we would appreciate if you could post that note on the thread too, so other forum members know the score. As always, happy to talk to you more about this, via PM or the mobile I sent over earlier today. Cheers, mark http://board.muse.mu/showpost.php?p=5307870&postcount=170
