YoYoMa Posted December 22, 2003 Share Posted December 22, 2003 Yay! My name is Catherine and my fiance Brian is sitting here beside me reading all your fun postings. We're the "Geocahing for Love" couple. We just got a phone call from a friend letting us know about this thread. I am so excited that you all are getting to share in our fun story. We can't believe all the responses. You have been working hard to get us in the lead! We're impressed. This is fun! We hadn't checked the contest site in awhile and we were surprised to find out all this was going on. We promise that when we get moved to the San Francisco Bay area, we'll plant a real cache at the proposal site for you all to visit. So watch for new caches in the area come summer 2004. Thanks SO much for all your votes...keep them coming! You guys are great. We just voted from another computer, so we're ahead 240 to 223. Blessings, Brian and Catherine Quote Link to comment

+RainbowCache Posted December 22, 2003 Share Posted December 22, 2003 I have 10 computers at my office. I have to remember to vote on them. I wished it worked that way! I have voted at home and now work. But when I go to one of the other computers in the office, IT WOULD NOT let me vote again. It must recognize the ISP and allow only one per. RATS, and there were at least 30 or so I could have hit. latest voting Geocaching for Love 48.3% (256 Votes) Finally 47.2% (250 Votes) BumpO! Quote Link to comment
+Doc-Dean Posted December 22, 2003 Share Posted December 22, 2003 Perhaps we could repost this on some of the other geocaching forums since not everyone checks the general forum (i.e. - Benchmarking)?? I wonder if the moderators would be cool with that?? Quote Link to comment

But when I go to one of the other computers in the office, IT WOULD NOT let me vote again. Your office more than likely uses a proxy server which means that every time you request a webpage, you ask another computer to get it for you. This way they can control what pages you go to and what content is brought back (no nudies at work, stuff like that). Quote Link to comment
