I believe it only counts one vote every 24 hours. I voted at night a little earlier than the day before, and the vote count was the same afterwards as leadb had just posted.

So to clarify, if people are voting several times a day it may not actually have counted any votes past their very first, since they're in effect just "resetting" the 24-hour clock without their vote counting.

This is my belief.

I vote at 1pm on day 1; it counts.
I vote at 2pm on day 1; it does not count.
I vote several times ... it does not count.
I vote at 12:58pm on day 2; it doesn't count.
I vote at 1:01pm on day 2; it counts.
I vote ... serveral times it doesn't count.
I vote at 1:00pm on day 3; it does not count.
I vote at 7:pm on day 3, it counts.
I vote at 6pm on day 4, not
7:02pm on day 4, does count.
etc.

If you really want to be aggressive about only voting exactly when you are sure a vote will count I recommend you vote 2 seconds later each day, exactly once a day. I'm pretty sure then "all" your votes will count. Personally, I vote about hourly when I'm voting for tv_vote and don't worry about which one counts.

This is what I'm doing. It's easy peasy and I think it comes near counting that way as anything else we're doing.

Okay, so based on your voting I would sum up as:
1. Votes more than 24 hours apart count
2. Intermediate votes do not "reset" the 24-hour clock

That is a summation of my understanding. It is -possible- the site allows a vote once every 4, 6, or 8 hours; however, I have only been able to rule out 'hourly' and the site does not provide any specific guidance, and several folks have looked. If on the off chance the site counts votes every 8 hours, I would not discourage you from voting twice a day... but at this point, the only thing I'm >very< confident of is that daily votes count and that the time is not 'reset' by intermediate attempted votes. . . . however, if your information is correct, then you have fairly well eliminated some of the shorter intervals, and it is likely 24 hours.
