I must think most of those Xena fans are gorram bots installed by one or two people, who have access to many computers with separate IP addresses
The guy that runs the site is pretty good at detecting automatic, even "enhanced" voting. I'm not willing to concede that he's part of a conspiracy to see Xena win, and that's what it would take for that many bots to vote for the same show this consistently. One vote/hour. Any IP comes in steadily for more than 48 consecutive hours has to be suspect.
Let's all go recruit 2 new Browncoats each & get them voting. That'll solve our problems.

I hope you are right about him good at detecting bots, and I'm 100% sure you're right about him not being part of a conspiracy. But you can't really blaim me getting suspicious after looking at the Xena-staircase. Actually, I'm pretty sure the tvvote guys too will notice the pattern soon.

Unlikely. Rich who runs TV_vote takes measures against computers close to each other being counted separately, even if they have separate ips. I think that this behavior is better explained by a -large number- of fans, not voting so often. If you can get 900 folks to vote once or twice a day, you won't see as many large shifts day to day since hitting the mark once a day is much easier than trying to get in 12 votes a day. Also, if a person is away from the computers for a day, it's just one vote lost rather than a 10 or 12, which keeps things a bit more steady. In any event; I'd say I trust Rich to keep things on an even keel.
