That asside i find it quite amusing that everybody is getting so uptight about how the votes were generated with this being a Gaming site, where all you guys do on here is play in a world that is generted for your own benifit, to game and beat the other guy.

Yes i get all the other issues of gamers only etc should have had a say or vote but hey this was just another game where Ichigo won the game. There are no rules in a game and if you find a cheat to get you one up on the other guy then hey what is the problem, do you go out and tell everybody how you did it probably not. So are you telling me that no one on this site has used a cheat in a game before to get ahead, sure you havnt.

Its easy to hide behind a forum and sling stuff at the other guy but it really makes no difference in the scheme of things. Good luck to the winner and hope you enjoy the PS3 and always wanted one!

Interestingly, I can also see that you have the same IP address as a number of other accounts all created within minutes of each other that all voted for Ichigo.

Which accounts had same IP's as him would love to know, if it isnt classified that is

Thanks for proving my point.

I won't be posting that sort of information.

Icihigo, you got busted. Get over it. Seriously.

Unfortunately I did see this happening.

As for people complaining that it's not fair to discount these votes, well I'll tell you most other forums would just ban all those accounts and your own for vote rigging and be done with it. The fact that James has both not banned you and kept you in the competition to count your legitimate votes says a lot about how lenient he is, so to carry on whining about how he rigged the votes is unbelievably laughable.

I'm a little disappointed about how few legit votes there were but I think the format of the competition needs a bit of work, maybe a community discussion. The idea was interesting though.

Hows that even a reply to what I said do you read the post first? Got over it long ago when I went to eat a pancake an hour ago unless you want me to start again.

There is questioning the running of something and there is getting personal because you're butthurt ........ the latter is not on no matter what. In the end, James took into consideration input from the community and actually put it in action. The result was a fair outcome and a step toward the betterment of the community. Not many other places are so personally involved, so appreciate it.

A forum will always come down to a popularity contest when members vote, it's one of those things, most gamers will not look at or fully appreciate content and effort when their friends are involved. It may not seem fair but that's them, not the staff. Hey, it's gamers :shrug: Whoring votes is not the way to go about winning stuff, interacting with a community is.

My 2c anyway .....
