The original rules stated one vote one person. 10 votes per IP adress to allow for family/relatives...squirrel in the actic. Unfortunately for Pillsbury they did not do there homework. They had no idea simple things like could be done:
like clearing your cookies. They still have no idea about onion routers and so on. It did not occour to them that people would place multiple votes. Thus they were not protected against as you say but still against the rules.

Perhaps the name JiminyCricket would be more appropriate as you seem to be everyone elses conscience ...but not your own.
Once all those folks you asked to vote for you, that you vetted, that tried your recipe then voted for it are counted you should then take that to Pillsbury and get your own easy bake oven from them.

They just want to steal her ideas so they can have a chance next time.

Close, but no banana...you'd think second time round you'd have googled it at least.

If you want to read a funny thread at another website complaining about out jihad...read this:

Hahahhaa oh man. This just got AWESOME!


They're taking this way too personally and seem to think this was the only place were people posted links to the contest pandering for votes. There is proof linked in this very thread, that other people did that as well. There is also references to other recipes clearly using the same types of tactics to rack up a ton of votes. In the end, that's not even what won the contest and their butt hurt whining reeks of sour grapes.

Why don't you enjoy the Pillsbury bashing? You're incredibly butt hurt over the fact that they don't know how to run a contest which, coincidentally, is also what caused them to get bashed on here. Your beef clearly should be with them, not with the kind souls here that exposed the gaping holes in their contest design. If anything, you should be thanking us for ensuring that the next online baking recipe contest you enter involving Pillsbury products will be run in a much more secure manner.

Its an internet contest, what do you expect and Pillsbury had no problem with her winning so your just mad her dish tasted better.

Oh geez I better only put one entry next time into that contest since I'm cheating!

Not only did Philsbury not DQ her but they picked her the winner so I don't think they had a problem with it at all. I bet the only reason something got done is because a bunch of you chickens went squawking to them about it.

Had anybody placed 200 votes for me in one session I would have asked Pillsnury to remove the votes (see concience)

For the love of God, woman, if you're going tell us "kids" to look up a simple word on google, at least spend some time proof-reading what you've typed before clicking post.
