| | Well the voting has begin for the 3rd annual Trap17 awards and I like to toss a pre-victory congratulations for those made it to the finals, and a better luck next year for those who did not make the cut. Also I ask you all to vote only once, because I should have check this poll script before setting it up, and it seems you can vote more then once and I have check out other ways to set this up as well. I have faith that people will be honorable in their selections regardless of the stupidity I put in for not checking this script earlier.
Also some categories had to be randomly filled in and I thank alex for helping me with that and so let the voting begin.

I have submitted mine, I wasn't really active in 2007, so I couldn't really expect my name to be in that list. But nonetheless, a huge congrats to all those who made it.

I just want to remind people what the "Most likely to become bill gate's boss" one is. It is NOT who is the mastermind programmer who created marvelous sites for us all to enjoy, because OpaQue would win that hands down. BUT It is the replacement category for Mad Scientist. It states that it is for the person who has written the most creative posts in "My theories, possible inventions etc etc" Which if you don't mind me pointing out: Opaque has only written one topic under that forum >_<. Now I'm not saying don't vote for OpaQue for anything because he definitely deserves to win trapper of the year and quite a few others... BUT I'm just asking you all to remember who spent hours of slaving over a hot computer writing tons of informational and interesting theories in that board... And no I'm not being conceded here. It's the only award I really want to win.

heh.. Finally the day has arrived..  First of all I never expected my name to be in the list and man was I shocked when I saw it in the "Moderator ...... " list I mean if it was in some random poll I would have agreed but in the place where I don't deserve it?  Secondly, I am shocked that Rvalkass is not winning the moderation poll, I was going to cheat by adding 3 or votes but am worried that somebody is tracking my actions  Thirdly, I was never going to vote at all... But reading Alex's warning... I decided to vote before he came out to get me, Please don't kill me now that I have voted for you j/k Yes, Michael I have voted for you too so stop crying right now Best of luck fellow rats of the rat race

To much of a security risk for trap17 and the other hosts, and also its not officially run by trap as it is more run by the members, although I wouldn't mind having a team with me (2-3 people) to help outnext year. Besides there are polls that do ip one time votes, didn't find them quick enough though as I wanted to get the polling system up as quick as possible. MB that Tennessee thing was for the person who lives in Tennessee who was double voting, so it would be inside joke between me and that user, and no CC I will not give out IP addresses, because of security concerns, and privacy information. If it helps MB the reason I don't want to start it over is that my school schedule is keeping me fairly busy, and no I don't want to give access to my account to help manage it for me. Hopefully when it starts again next year I want to do it in flex as I saw a nice poll in flex.

Yeah the double voting is being exploited. I have to admit I did a few just to test it out. Its not a bad system in terms of interface but I think if you integrated into trap17's database of users and only allow you to log in and vote on it once for each section this would definitely fix the problem. But thats of course if you have access to it. Maybe you can talk to the administrators here to see if that is possible. Or you could just code it up and give it to them to check and implement if they see no flaws in the code.

QUOTE(Saint_Michael @ Mar 31 2008, 05:21 AM)  True I could have done that, but again only two polls were affected by the person who did so I could have just edited them and be done with it. However, I did what was right because after going through the polls, some of them had 7 to 11 invalid votes, and of course I had one person from Tennessee, (Yeah I am talking to you ), go through most of the polls two at least two votes a piece. Yet it wouldn't be fair either to start it over again, and make people vote again, but taking over the reigns has been a bit tricky just because of how busy I was so everything was done quite hastily. You are right about the dial up users however, I came across very few of those and although some of the numbers we close it still is hard to prove that one. I have notice that not all polls have receive the same amount attention though, and best guess is that not everyone know everyone and so that is understandable, of course I now non mods have been voting in the reported post poll, but that is fine. So hopefully those who didn't vote for everything can go back and vote in the polls they did not vote for. Yeah that's kinda mean considering I'm from Tennessee. I didn't do it though. And do you know what city it came from? I might have an idea of who did it if I can get the IP Address.

I don't see why it wouldn't be fair to start over again. All it needs is a reset and ask for people to re-enter their votes, this time, hopefully taking into consideration the error that was presented in the first version of the poll. What's unfair with that? I would have accepted your argument if you said it would be hassle to re-vote again. If you were busy, like probably the rest of us who are working already, you could probably ask some help from other members of the forum who would gladly assist you. I don't see anyone who's so excited in having their votes cast, so I don't see what there's supposed to be a rush in making a poll and not taking into consideration the possible worst case scenario. If it would be the case, I'd rather use the forum's poll since it centers to having a username-specific vote (e.g., one forum member can only vote once). You also have to consider the fact that the total number of votes would differ in each poll, as members, as you've said, probably don't understand the category or they just don't like to vote in the category (like what I did in some of the polls), unless you specify that each member should secure a vote in every category. I don't think these simple rules aren't too hard to follow and I believe most of the members here are quite level-headed enough to understand such.
