It's been many years since I've done any coding, but in my brief reading of a SQL injection attack it seems the only use this has is to harm. What satisfaction could a hacker get from doing this to a non profit, non political, and non biased site like tvtally?

These days, the hackers use spiders to search for vulnerable sites, infect them, and then report back. Payloads vary, most seem to be for infecting visitors so a trojan can be downloaded to a PC.

Not surprised that TVTally got hit. The site is not maintained much, and apparently has not had its code adapted to defend against AQL injection attacks.

Something strange going on out there. There is some individual, or group, who is going around, using an automated voting program, to put Firefly and Serenity into last place in polls. Happened at the Stargate site, and Moviespeople. It's happening right now at the BBC site.

Whoever this is, they are not omnipotent. On the late TVTally site, they were consistently beaten at their own game by a Browncoat operated automated voting program. That Browncoat showed up for a while at Stargate last year, but then left, and has not returned. The Browncoat automated voting program has not shown up anywhere else since TVTally disappeared.

At the BBC site, the automated voting program showed up for a bit last Summer, but did not knock us out of first place. They returned a few weeks ago, knocked us out of first place, then started running Blade Runner's score then, a week ago, stopped. We always have a few people voting their every day, and we began to gain ground again. But then the automated voting program returned a few days ago, but putting out only 200-300 votes a day (instead of 2-3k a day a few weeks ago.

I have no idea who we offended, or who our champion (with the automated voting program) is.

Anyone got anymore info on this weirdness?

I can confirm your words. Two of mentioned sites are mine. You are absolutely right. Someone use a voting bot. Some days i got more votes than visitors and system was set for 1/day vote.

I am sci fi fan, i really love Firefly and Serenity but this is no way how to behave. Polls are meanless in this case and no admins nor visitors are stupid.

Problem is how to stop these bots. When i blacklisted spamming url, author changed it and everything started again and again... The only option how to prevent this cheating is removing Serenity from polls.

I just want to tell: Browncoats are fighters not scammers... pls act this way!

I guess this voter thinks he is supporting the Firefly case but he will reach the opposite result. People will start to hate Firefly from the time Firefly fan = cheater...

Think about, maybe is time to say SORRY and start from beginning...

Over at BBC (newsvote.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/entertainment/6517155.stm), January voting there were 125 for Serenity (indicating at least half a dozen Browncoats coming by regularly), seven votes for Star Wars, four for Blade Runner , 10,538 for Planet of the Apes (apparently a voting bot)and 11,071 for The Matrix (the bot again). We are not in last place yet. The bot has got the Apes to 11.93 percent, while we are at 20.69. Since last December, total votes have gone from 44,853 to 94,896.

Over at Moviepeople, Serenity got 44 votes (indicating 2-3 Browncoats), Firefly got 43. At the Stargate site, Firefly got 56 votes.

There are a few of us still fighting the good fight against the evil bots. A few more regular voters would make a big difference. Apparently the voting bot is one person, and if that wuss goes away, we can repair a lot of the damage over time.

I never know when these voting things are on... If they're posted on here though, I'll definitely vote in them!

Firefly Forever!

thing is...Serenity is the only ship that actually exists!! Joss built the set fer real...you could walk from one end to the other...Enterprise (as much as we all love her) and other ships are mere sets in pieces.

So see kids..there really isn't any comparison for us to worry about.
hell...bolt the whole thing together, add a briggs n straton engine and she'd probably try to fly ...that's the spirit of Serenity!

Another monthly update of our continuing woes at the hands (tentacles) of the voting machine.

Over at the coolest starship vote ( http://www.filmcritic.com/features/2008/05/coolest-starship-tournament/), we have been trashed by the Millennium Falcon (which then loses to the Enterprise.) I suspect sorcery.

Over at Moviepeople, Serenity got 20 votes, Firefly got 19. More votes than anyone else. Then again, I seem to be the only one voting for use. At the Stargate site, Firefly got 28 votes. More votes than anyone else. There appear to be two or three folks voting for Firefly. However, the Stargate is infected with malware. I've been voting via iPad.

Over at the coolest starship vote ( http://www.filmcritic.com/features/2008/05/coolest-starship-tournament/), we have been trashed by the Millennium Falcon (which then loses to the Enterprise.) I suspect sorcery. At least the Millennium Falcon loses in the end.

Over at Moviepeople, the site seems to have died. No big loss, since the voting bot trashed us and I seemed to be the only one voting for us. There were a few other voters for other shows, but we managed to get the most month after month. Browncoat persistence pays off.

At the Stargate site, Firefly got 24 votes. More votes than anyone else. There appear to be two or three folks voting for Firefly. However, the Stargate is infected with malware. I've been voting via iPad. The site has been infected for over a month.

So imagine my surprise when, after being gone for most of a year, my last thread is still on the front page...

The fanatics are the people who build and use voting bots to bury us (or rarely help us) in polls. At the moment, we are losing to the fanatics.

I spend more time posting messages here a few times a week,and responding to the occasional call to vote in some FF related poll (unless it requires registration, got no time for that). It's the only FF site I visit.

Takes just a minute or two to vote on two sites 20 or so times a month, and then post a monthly summary. It's mainly to remind people that every little bit helps. Otherwise, Firefly fades from view. One of those two sites is now gone, and the other apparently got an SQL injection infection, which warn away anyone with AV SW away.

Got to find another new site to support, what with Movie People permanently 404'd.

Another monthly update of our continuing woes at the hands (tentacles) of the voting machine.

Over at Moviepeople, the site was thought to be dead. But it came back today. So I voted. Since the last time I was able to get a count (about six weeks ago) we have gained 19 votes for Serenity and 20 for Firefly.


At the Stargate site, Firefly got 35 votes. More votes than anyone else. There appear to be two or three folks voting for Firefly. However, the Stargate was infected with malware. I've been voting via iPad. The site was infected for over a month, then they fixed that for a few weeks until they got infected again. If you got a Mac or Linux PC you can vote safely. Smart phones or iPads work as well.

Final monthly update of our continuing woes at the hands (tentacles) of the voting machine.

Over at Moviepeople, the site was thought to be dead. But it came back a month ago for a few weeks ago, and then went down again about ten days ago. I voted while it was up again, but it seems gone for good.


At the Stargate site, Firefly got 32 votes. More votes than anyone else. There appear to be two or three folks voting for Firefly. However, the Stargate site was infected with malware. I've been voting via iPad. The site was infected for over a month, then they fixed that for a few weeks until they got infected again. If you got a Mac or Linux PC you can vote safely. Smart phones or iPads work as well.

I'll keep plugging away, but these updates don't seem to be having much impact. So, a little over a year after this thread began, I'll leave it alone, as most everyone else has.

I would love to see a continuation of the series FireFly or a 2nd movie of Serenity. Just my 2 cents.

At this point, all they could do is a similar show set in the Firefly universe, with a new cast. Possible. If they could get Joss involved, if only as a consultant (and maybe script advisor), it might work.

Some of the old cast might be available, if only for guesting.
