    Huweh, Gm T, I can vote for myself a lot of times ah. I voted twice, kaya minus one ako dapat hehe. Just refreshing the screen allows me to vote again @_@. How can you be sure about the One Ip one cookie thing?

  2. Anna on September 26th, 2007 9:16 pm

    Saka is it your birthday? Haha. If it is, then happy bday!

  3. DeSquallie on September 26th, 2007 9:17 pm

    I can’t vote twice, it says, “Thank you, we have already counted your vote.”

    What browser are you using?

  4. jherskie on September 26th, 2007 9:41 pm

    happy bday GM Tristan!

    so, napansin mo din Anna? i was trying din to vote myself, and i’ve raised it a few points as well. i’m using IE.

  5. DeSquallie on September 26th, 2007 9:43 pm

    I’m using Opera. Hmmm… so cancelled siguro na yung voting. May bug ata.

  6. chester on September 26th, 2007 9:44 pm

    bat ako isa lang pareho nung kay DeSquallie eto lumalabas o Thank you, we have already counted your vote.” bat kau pede.

  7. jherskie on September 26th, 2007 9:45 pm

    there. i’ve raised it again by 2. there must be some problem with the poll system.

  8. jherskie on September 26th, 2007 9:48 pm

    er… (+1 ulet)
    problem with cookies and stuff? and how about those using *dynamic* IPs?

  9. chester on September 26th, 2007 9:48 pm

    kung may problem siguro nga cancelled. sana maaus agad

  10. chester on September 26th, 2007 9:50 pm

    hmm pano ginawa mo jherskie? bat sakin ayaw… @gm tristan paaus naman po ung poll may bugs daw po ata.

  11. DeSquallie on September 26th, 2007 9:55 pm

    Teka, anong gamit ninyong ISP?

    PLDT DSL akin

  12. chester on September 26th, 2007 10:02 pm

    pldt dsl sakin pero d ako maka vote ng twice bat sila jherskie nakaka vote ng twice?

  13. jherskie on September 26th, 2007 10:05 pm

    >_

  14. jherskie on September 26th, 2007 10:08 pm

    i think GM Tristan will reply by tomorrow. it’s his bday anyway, let us allow him to celebrate the special day.

    my isp is smartbroadband, and i’m using IE7. i just *refresh* the page and i could vote again. (and take note, i’m still able to vote)

  15. chester on September 26th, 2007 10:24 pm

    me pldt dsl using both mozilla firefox and IE7 but i cant both as many as i want. hope this problem would fix tomorrow.

  16. jherskie on September 26th, 2007 10:29 pm

    hopefully, this matter will be addressed. i don’t feel like promoting this to all my friends kung mavo-void din ung votes nila.

  17. chester on September 26th, 2007 10:40 pm

    yup oo nga sayang ung mga vote ng friend ko ngayon palang T_T

  18. Anna on September 26th, 2007 10:41 pm

    Ako rin pede pa magvote ngaun. But I won’t. Amp uulitin ko na naman kulitin yung mga nakaboto na pag nagbago ang poll. Hahaha. I’m using ZTE broadband. Lol. ZTE sponsored Dsl lang. Firefox ang browser ko.

  19. jherskie on September 26th, 2007 10:47 pm

    well… i’m still voting LOLz. konti pa lng naman ang nakaka-vote sa mga sinabihan ko e. hehe. (blame my voting frenzy on my current inability to visit ragnaboards since the office proxy is blocking it)

  20. jherskie on September 26th, 2007 10:55 pm

    oh well. i’m turning in for the night. hopefully may answer na si GM Tristan regarding this by the time i come back tomorrow.

  21. Anna on September 26th, 2007 10:56 pm

    Matapos magtanong tanong, at subukuang ulit-uliting ang boto ko, (at pilitin ang mga bumoto na na bumoto ulit lol) hindi nga nakakaboto ng dalawa.

    Baka daw nung bumoto ako ulit, me nakasabay ako, kaya feeling ko e 2 yung nacount sakin.

    Nagalit pa sakin ang kaibigan ko kasi daw baka hindi ako nagbabasa.

    Mea maxima culpa. Hehe. Ewan ko nalang sa iba pa.

  22. Spectator on September 27th, 2007 12:16 am

    i think desquallie is cheating.

    it is impossible how 20++ people can vote for his blog in like 3 hours. Last time i checked at around 9pm, the number of votes for desquallie was 42, and now its up to 70++ omg. and to think that his writing style is sooo poor ~.~

    people reading GM. T’s blog aren’t blind and of course we do know what a good write-up should have in order for it to be classified as good and believe me desquallie’s aint one of them which is why i am led to the conclusion that he in fact is cheating.

    some ISP’s IP adds are dynamic and can be changed by simply by renewing it in the command prompt. voila! he can vote again!!

    i hope you consider this protest of mine. thanks.

  23. DeSquallie on September 27th, 2007 1:28 am

    If GM Tristan has the ability to see IP addresses, then he can show that I have only voted once for myself using the IP address that my PLDT DSL gives me. As of now, you’re contesting my votes and I’m open to an investigation. And to know what you feel, you’re hiding behind a name that you should have used your real name if you criticize my style of writing. Hence I see you are a coward who doesn’t know how to contest someone else who has full support from Thor and my guild. If you believe that I’m cheating, go on ahead and make your day.

    The rest has already said they’re voting double on their end so tell me this… are you the one who’s voting for me and now trying to frame up your good little self so that I can take the blame? Only time will tell my friend. As far as I know it, this poll has been void from the very beginning someone reported multiple voting on one computer.

  24. DeSquallie on September 27th, 2007 2:18 am

    @Spectator

    If you still wish to debate over this, I’m happy to debate with you on my blog.

  25. chester on September 27th, 2007 5:32 am

    may balitana ba bout this matter?

  26. jherskie on September 27th, 2007 6:11 am

    =_=

    it seems may nagvote na sa mga sinabihan ko. tumaas ng 10pts, hehe.

    anyway, i will not campaign as ferociously as I would until this is resolved. ^_^

  27. Anna on September 27th, 2007 10:39 am

    Wag niyo naman pagbintangan nang basta si desquallie. Malay niyo todo kampanya talaga siya. :P

  28. jherskie on September 27th, 2007 11:37 am

    ^ yup, wak mambintang kung wala ebidensya. ^^

    er, those who i asked to vote are also telling me that they, indeed, were only able to vote once. so, promote na to!

    *spam na ng mails dito sa office!*

  29. DeSquallie on September 27th, 2007 11:42 am

    Thanks for those who believe me.

    To show my campaign efforts, I have sent 30 emails to friends and family thru YM, went into 4 forums and campaigned there, went outside and asked my neighbor to vote for me. I have proof to support my bid for this… still waiting for Spectator to come and show his. If not, then I’ll let this case go and check from time to time for updates on the voting bug.

    Kala nya madiscourage nya ako. Slash gee gee nlng. :) Good luck sa top ten

  30. GM T on September 27th, 2007 11:43 am

    That’s what the voting application said. I tried it on a dummy poll before creating this one and I couldn’t vote twice. Anyways, don’t accuse someone. Just campaign for your own votes.

    Thanks

  31. jherskie on September 27th, 2007 11:57 am

    30 email, desquallie? try sending/spamming email to all your co-workers (around 50 on the initial mail) and you’ll see *results*

    slash gee gee din :p

    *campaigning like crazy nao*

    btw, that’s not including friendster :p

  32. GM T on September 27th, 2007 12:11 pm

    pati ba naman dito may dayaan???

    Sigh…

    Anyways, I WILL check these complaints. Spammers will be reprimanded and disqualified. Please naman, be fair and just ask your friends to vote for you.

    Also, please prepare your evidence before you accuse someone. Thanks

  33. DeSquallie on September 27th, 2007 12:15 pm

    @jherskie

    Yeah, 30 emails to them… then they send the same advertisement, i mean email to their friends and the rest goes on. :)

  34. jherskie on September 27th, 2007 12:26 pm

    @DeSquallie, yup! that’s what i’ve been doing since someone told me that they were only able to vote once.

    @GM T, if you did find some of my votes are spam, please disregard them since many of them are spam-vote tests last night.

    *goes back to campaigning in teh office network*

  35. GM T on September 27th, 2007 12:54 pm

    If it all makes you happy, I’ll have a special award for the BEST WRITER. I will personally choose it myself. Prize to be announced.

    Fair?

  36. DeSquallie on September 27th, 2007 1:05 pm

    Pwede na yan GM T! Then have the top ten vote for the best writer except for themselves. just a suggestion.

    If that’s the case, I have to say Sniper Angel gets my vote.

  37. GM T on September 27th, 2007 1:32 pm

    Pwede rin ang suggestion mo… let me think about it

  38. jherskie on September 27th, 2007 2:43 pm

    i’d agree with that, GM T! my vote’s for Anna :)

  39. DaveTNova on September 27th, 2007 3:32 pm

    At least it resolves matters. XD

  40. GM T on September 27th, 2007 4:01 pm

    Yeah ganun na lang. Para democracy. 1 vote per finalist for the best writer. Vote by commenting here. You can’t vote for yourself

    Thanks.

  41. elmer0224 on September 27th, 2007 11:01 pm

    @spectator

    lol @ ur comments… dami kayang friends nyang ni desquallie… in thor alone!

  42. DaveTNova on September 28th, 2007 12:40 pm

    I’d pick Anna’s entires for the finalist vote :P

  43. Spectator on September 28th, 2007 2:58 pm

    That was only my opinion. Aint we all entitled to our own opinion?

    anyways im not hiding my true identity.

    spectator is my name in tyr.

  44. SA on September 28th, 2007 5:17 pm

    No fair. Colleagues? They no longer know internet na nga eh. ~_~.

  45. DeSquallie on September 29th, 2007 8:14 am

    @Spectator

    Ok, your opinion is taken. But accussing someone without evidence is wrong. Take that into consideration next time.

  46. DeSquallie on September 29th, 2007 8:16 am

    Ok your point taken, Spectator. But take into consideration that accussing someone without any evidence is wrong.

  47. DeSquallie on September 29th, 2007 8:16 am

    Sorry triple post… X_x

  48. Of Winning And Losing | gmtristan.com on October 4th, 2007 2:51 pm

    […] that was the “big league”. It really surprised me when my small, little voting rule for my Group Writing Contest would also be marred with accusations of cheating and “daya”. DeSqaullie who is […]
