    I don't know enough about the workings of puters or the Internet to know the answer to that, Gtdhw.:huh: Cyber-Wiz or others here could likely answer that question. BUT....I don't think the guy is contemplating that possibility anyway.....he just wants to WIN! And he will do it any way he can. AND...UNFORTUNATELY, it looks like he may!:rant2::mad:

    Don't think you can 'pull' votes that have already been comitted. You may be talking about people 'switching' votes from one contestant to another.
    Seems to me that with so many more votes coming in, this golf cart guy must have a lot of sources for 'requested' votes....golf forums, AARP forums, 'Guys who act like Rodney Dangerfield in Caddyshack' forums.......

    Keep in mind that the more votes that come in the more each individual vote is diluted. One vote of 100 is 1%. One vote of 1,000 is only a tenth of 1%.

    No, I just mean that with all the new votes piling up, it's depleting the value of the original ones cast to the other cars, like you stated. But how little can they end up being worth? How low can they driven?

    ETA: From what I can tell, right now, each vote is worth roughly .02-.03%. And, WE HAVE BEEN ON A CONSTANT UPSWING SINCE 2:30 THIS MORNING GAINING .51%. :)

    Twice a day actually. I vote in the morning around 9, then again after 5pm.:) Not sure why it allows it, but my family members say they all do the same thing.

    Yup....I got in again...took my vote.
    The cart guy has a plan. It's plain to see that. I didn't want my prediction to come true but it looks as though it will.
