the way i understand it the thing is unique to each cookie. i have now voted 3 times by dumping my cookies. now each time it shows me that serenity does not yet have enough votes and will not (for me on this run anyway) advance to the next round. try it again!

Too bad, it should have won. O well. I cant believe the Defiant was in there.

Jst block the cookies (you should do that almost all the time anyway, unless you like spyware) and you can use the back arrow to vote as often as you like.

I jst added 50+ votes and put Serenity out in front, all in 15 minutes.

If you want a real poll to vote in though, go to the other voting thread here. There's no "cheating" there.

"In the beginning Man created God; and in the image of Man created he him....But as all these things did come to pass, the Spirit that did cause man to create his God lived on with all men: even within Aqualung. And man saw it not. But for Christ's sake he'd better start looking." - Jethro Tull

Guys, guys, I don't know about cookies, but admin can see ips from which votes were casted. It won't be so shiny if they will see that some ips voted 50-100 times.

from the AMC faq

About Vote Results
This is a bracket poll set up as a series of 1-on-1 match-ups. Users are presented with the match-ups and vote their choices, and these votes are tallied with votes from all the other users. The choices in each match-up with the most votes are the winners and advance to the next round, until a final winner is reached. (If you vote for a choice but that choice did not receive the most votes overall from all users, then it will not show up in the next round.)
One key difference from a normal bracket poll is that this one has no end-date, and the user can vote in all the rounds and right to the final winner in one session. The winners are based on all votes received up to that moment and may change as more votes are received over time.
Game Logic Points to Note:
Winner of each match gets one point, which is tallied in with other users' votes
In a tie, the winning point is awarded to the choice who was voted for last
Points (or votes) for a choice do not carry over between rounds

Serenity won when I went through it but with 19 to 19 votes against the Enterprise.....we won on character?

Nah, because we're so pretty.

On my recent voting run, Serenity took it over Enterprise in round 4, 47 to 45.

WE WON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Against the Falcon in the first round, I do believe there could be a FF/Serenity hater organizing the battle's but we prevailed, Browncoat's We Stand.

Vump and still trying. Yes we won a first round but a stupid winnebago wins a round as well so that's not saying much. Need to breeze through this thing and get Serenity back on top in the final. It took less than 2 minutes to go all the way to the final.

When I played Serenity got to the quarterfinals, beat by the Star Destroyer.

ETA (actually, got kicked off, so it made me make a reply instead):

What if you always vote for the other losing ships? For example, when I played Serenity always ended up against the Star Destroyer, so after the first time I made sure not to vote for the popular ship, so that in the successive rounds Serenity wouldn't be competing against a ship that I voted for in the previous rounds.

Will this help the odds?

KNIGHTREYEDER

Tuesday, May 20, 2008 11:35 AM

Vump for what it's worth. Serenity isn't gaining ground on that bloody Star Destroyer.....

Vump again. I can vote from the same computer on the same day several times but just not repeatedly back to back. Anyone figured out how long you have to wait?

When I get through all of the rounds, I just close the window, open the poll again in a new window and start again. Of course, it takes several minutes for me to get through the rounds, so that may be why it works.

KNIGHTREYEDER

Wednesday, May 21, 2008 8:32 PM

Vump and our girl still trails by 31.

And suddenly the Millenium Falcon has picked up a couple of hundred votes, shutting Serenity out of the voting. I have to wonder how that happened. I knew that the poll was biased, but I find that a bit suspicious.

KNIGHTREYEDER

Thursday, May 22, 2008 10:06 PM

I keep voting, about 5-6 times since my last post and Serenity keeps losing ground.......

Yeah, even if it's a worthy adversary we need to beat the fastest hunk of junk in the galaxy. I added the AMC blog address to my signature and asked the faithful Browncoats on the richlabonte voting thread to help out. We can do this. I'll keep trying that's for certain.....

Vump X3, and we're clawing our way back from being over 200 behind to around 192 behind....bloody hell.

Where did all those Falcon votes come from? It's entertaining how the morons on the site couldn't even spell Millenium Falcon right.

Well I'm taking a little credit where due, I've been on that bloody poll as many times as the richlabonte one......and voting all the way through the last round. It's awesome to see Serenity beating the Enterprise in the final!

I know it's been said before but the Firefly fan base has to be the most amazing following anything has ever had to beat out Star Wars and Star Trek fans.....it boggles the mind.

Thanks to those that helped from the Universal HD forum and Captaincoupi for your efforts!
