Unfortunately, I have had to stop the calendar voting. I have been keeping tabs on the results over the past 24 hours and this morning noticed some peculiarities. After some investigation, I found that one of the participants had been creating new member accounts and casting votes for his own car. There were 15 new registrations all for the sole purpose of voting. He claims all his friends were voting for him, however, it is apparent from the logs that each new member was created every 2 minutes...just long enough to create an account, vote, and logoff...one after the other all from the same IP address. I may be naive, but I'm not stupid.
So...I have taken down the voting, banned this person from the board and will restart the the Calendar Voting shortly with that participant removed. I apologize for the inconvience of having to re-vote, but I find this is the only way to get fair results.
By the way...please don't ask your friends to register just to vote. The spirit of this contest is to have our members (not their friends) choose which cars go into our calendar.
Again, I apologize for the inconvenience.
