Because of a very organized effort by Zorro fans or a Zorro fan boy/girl wrote a script/bot that automatically votes/deletes cookies/votes again... and again... and again...

WHITEFALL


When I voted, i seem to recall it was at 5000 votes or so.... and now, 27000?! um... nice to know that some fans are so fanatic that they have to cheat on a poll. gorram it all.

p.s. try refreshing the page. it goes up by about 100 votes every few minutes. I hope MSN isn't that stupid.

I survived a day in Whitefall and all I got was this lousy signature!

Don't know how we were doing so well before, but Serenity is only at 9% now.

Just voted. Corpse Bride at 16% leading. Serenity tied for 2nd at 10%.

One of the moderators at saveangel.org posted it this afternoon. (I'm a moderator, too.) We'll try to whip them up. :)

Zorro at 34%, followed by Corpse Bride at 16%, and then Serenity at 10% (tied with a movie called Just like Heaven). Don't know what we can do about Zorro if there really is a bot or whatever, but we can sure as hell still take out Corpse Bride. Or at the very least break the tie.

P.S. I love Sci-fi fans, and Browncoats in specific. Only here would there ever be a serious debate over the ethics of voting on a poll about movies.

couldn't stand getting beat by CB... I can understand getting beat by Zorro, though. That has BIG names and budget and does look good. Still nice to try.

No, it's shiny! I like to meet new people; they've all got stories.

If your willing to cheat try this

http://www.macros.com/download.htm

install it and make a macro for voting.
just record the act of deleting cookies, refreashing and voting and then schedule it to run every 20 or 30 seconds

Yeah, the sudden change makes me figure that there is some cheating going on. I don't think we should feel any compunction about doing whatever we need to.
On the count of three, misbehave at will!

Nope, still won't cheat. Only unethical psychotic fandoms (still not nameing any names) are willing to go against their morals for something so miniscule.

Forever more we will consider Zorro fans to be unethical cheats. Do you think it is worth it to have people think Browncoats lack morals for something that holds no scientific bearing anyway?

Did the BDH lay down arms when things were going badly? Well, yeah, sometimes but they had a plan, not always a good plan, but the point is they took that stick and.... well... they took it..... Aw hell just go vote.

OK. Now we're tied at 2nd with Corpse Bride at 15% each. But 'Zorro' is in the lead at 32%. This is a tough one. I want to see Corpse and Zorro too.
Of course not as much as "Serenity"!!

zorro's got 32% and we are at like 16%

Is that a bot or what for zorro? Are there that many zorro fans out there, really?

I would assume that's a bot, there's no way that movie is going to do that much business.
