This seems to work about 90% of the time. A few times I got "your vote has already counted". But I persevered and keep trying.

9 more votes counted.

Current:

Version 1 44.27%

Version 2 49.67%
Version 3 Who cares


New page voting link and FF instructions:

Just click on "return to poll" after every time you've voted.


In FF, just right click the above link, choose Open in new private window and vote. Close and repeat.

The poll closes August 19th. At the rate the CP jihad is going it could be like an 80-20 lead for option 1.

Alberta is more than mountains. That plate is nice but it fits better for BC.

Went from 44.56 to 44.6 in about 3 minutes

I wonder if they're a bit suspicious to be getting thousands of votes a minute...

Private browsing not working for me either anymore, anyone else confirm? If not then they probably turned on the IP filtering for voting. Hopefully it wasn't my script, I was randomizing user agents and only voting once every 15 to 45 seconds.

Well, if it comes down to it, we always have our secret weapon. Airplane mode.

It was the secret weapon in the wannamaker victory. Use your phone in 3G/LTE, vote, toggle airplane mode on and off, and it assigns you a new randomized IP address.

It worked well, the only problem was, we started using getting duplicate IP's from the carriers near the end of voting.

There has to be some 'Project Pluto' solution out there that will ensure victory, and mass casualties though.

Ah I see, interesting. Yeah mobile carriers only have so many exit points so it doesn't take long to get duplicates.

Next step would be proxies.

We could always PM spacetag, and see if he can recruit some help from the Russian Housewives. They have some sort of magic DVD remotes they can vote with apparently.

We should get La Flames Fan to do a PSA style commercial like his brilliant bluplanet ad, expressing what a tragedy selecting plate 2 would be:

Resetting your modem on Shaw gives you a new IP as well, I think.
