I won't vote even once, even though I could in a snap vote from 300 different IPs, due to my position as admin of an university computer pool (about 60 IPs), some servers (about 10 IPs), subnets reserved for WLAN (62 IPs and 126 IPs) and LOTS of unused IPs in various subnets.

Such things are cheating, and if I made such a poll and found out people are doing that, I'd cancel the poll and replace it by links to evidence showing how "fair" certain gaming communities are (forum threads, stats showing stuff like "wget", "libwww-perl", "curl" or unexpected dominance of minority browsers like lynx, w3m, links).

That would be quite some negative PR, wouldn't it? Wouldn't one think that people who cheat in a poll "because it's simple" would also use hacked device drivers and aimbots when "they are easy to get"? Who would want to play in a gaming community which tolerates and endorses cheating?
1. Open Notepad
2. Paste: ÿþMSMSMS
3. Save
4. Open the file in Notepad again

You can vary the number of "MS", so you can clearly see it's MS which is causing it.

My situation is the same as DivVeretns, and I agree with him, and act likewise.

Calculating a lil i could have admin access to at least 2000 IPs, and pullings friends stings, I could easily get 16000 more... but we dont need it, do we? :D

But therein lies the largest problem:
If the communities start fighting over this, it just ends up ridicolous, and btw we would have the upper hand, as our player base seems to be older, and thereby in more interesting positions (at work and so forth).

Feel free to vote as you wish, but do it fairly.

*bump*

Poll still running, we're now on 4th place.

Keep in mind having a decent result gives a tiny bit of cheap attention, so vote if you have not yet, but for the love of god don't cheat.

:P

There is no question there is a lot of fine competition there.

On my pc from the uni, I voted for other... Yes, World of Padman isn't standalone YET, but that's an awesome Quake3 engine based game too.
