I'm back for the morning reminder. Please vote! everyday! We are doing well there is one project in the bottom 6 that is actually been able to maintain a good daily vote average that I am keeping my eye on them. I would love to see our daily average go up. I am suspecting many of the voters are voting with multiple email addresses. The rules say one vote per day, per person/email. I wonder if that means we can use multiple email address? Anyway please vote !

I just did my daily vote and tried twice with two different emails and it seemed to work so it's not looking at the IP address or anything.

Thanks for the info! And Thanks for the votes! I wondered how some of these places could get so many votes so fast. I tried with a couple emails as well and it seemed to work. I imagine this is how the many of them are doing it. I do not know if that was intended by Bridgestone.

Tried voting twice with the same email and it does check that. But, yeah...using different emails seems to work just fine. Hey, why not... American Idol has their Super Vote.

I used all ten of my email addresses this time. Bumped the count by 10.

Time for my morning check and we are exactly on the nose 1500 votes behid first place, totally doable so please vote!

edit to add sine 0738 my time of this post this morning we have gone up 52 votes currently 0942. Thanks everyone!

edit to add now at almost 2300 we are 1279 votes behind first place, this is what happens when people stay consistent and vote every day, we can certainly catch hem by the end of the month if we all keep voting! Thanks everyone!

1350 votes bend first, thanks everyone please keep voting everyday!

1352 votes behind we lost a little ground and the project behind us is getting enough daily votes to take over our place by the end of the month so please everyone vote! Thanks!

1474 votes behind first. Sad really we were doing well and closing the gap but it appears we have lost a bunch of daily votes. i know it is a pain in the ass but it isn't that hard to do. So everyone who has voted thank you! We greatly appreciate it! If you can please continue to vote daily the month is half over now so we are on the down hill run. The team behind us keeps closing the gap and the team in front is pulling away so we really need the votes. Thanks!

1624 votes behind first place, doesn't look as if we will pull it off there has been severe drop in voting for us. If anyone here has the forttude to continue the vote for the rest of the month please do, I am now more concerned with being overtaken and losing out second place spot, that would cut our grant level in half! So please vote everyday and thank you sincerely to everyone that is voting and voting everyday!

As of today we have fallen back almost four hundred points!

I don't think it's checking IP addresses at all as I am able to vote from the UK.

Might be time for all the non US members to jump on the band wagon and vote?

Could be they check afterwards and disqualify, hard to be sure...

The faqs say voting open to US, Canada, DC. Vote apparently will be filtered and all votes by someone not In compliance with the rules will be disqualified and if a project actively tries to default the rules can be disqualified, so I will not ask anyone to go outside the rules. I thank everyone for their help but I won't do anything to get the project disqualified. Thanks agin everyone for any help you have or will give!
