Using different browsers doesn't work. If that was the case, deleting the cookies would work. It just appears to work, because while you are voting across all your browsers, some other people vote increasing the numbers.

If you want to make your votes count, you need to release/renew your IP address. I don't believe that the site will track your MAC address, but apparently it is definitely tracking your IP address since deleting cookies does NOT work.

For those with enough patience, releasing/renewing your IP address SHOULD work (as long as you delete cookies while you are at it).

This will have to be at the modem level. All computers on a home network will have the same public ip address - renewing/releasing your computer's ip address will only give you a new lan ip, not a new wan ip.

Even so, the modem may not get a new ip address after a release/renew - it depends on how things are set up by the isp.

One way I've found that seems to work more consistently: If you vote via your phone, stop/start your data connection (or, alternatively, start/stop your wifi connection which will force the data connection off then on). I've been able to get 4-5 votes in a row using this method (also clear cookies - I believe the site checks both cookies and ip address).

Again, if anyone has access to a proxy server, it might help to reconnect to the proxy after each vote (and also clear cookies) as the proxy may be giving you a different ip each time you connect.

Surely those 130 thousand followers should turn some votes in!

[3 Justin 3]

We're over 600 behind. What the hell happened, we were 300 up a couple of days ago.

Dion, stop your madness.

[Roof-Daddy]

Good thing we've got almost two months to catch up lol.

[Heavy Jack]

Got it down to 588

Gonna start up tweeting again tomorrow, ask big twitter accounts like Boston College and all their sports programs to tweet as well as just twitter accounts that are following Johnny Hockey! This should be fun, we're taking it down to the wire!

[StrykerSteve]

Got today's batch of votes in.... it's not looking good.

We're keeping pace at least, still in the 600 range. We just have to get people to start buying in more, CP is bought in just need more people to buy in. Like Roof-Daddy said though, we still got 2 months.

I've voted at least 20-25 times in total, but I can't help but feel like the Oskar Schindler type-character "Aaron" Judge Reinhold played in Seinfeld, and thinking, "I could have done more."
