+JMBella Posted December 24, 2003 Posted December 24, 2003 If you are Windows NT, 2000, XP or 2003 then type "cmd" (without the "'s) and click "OK". A black window with white text will appear. In the black window type "ipconfig /renew" (without the "'s) and press the "enter" key. After a little think time it should give you a new IP Address. Then you can vote again. To easily repeat the typing in the black window, just press your keyboards "up arrow" key and it will fill in the text again. It's not changing my ip and I can't vote again. Quote
CAKoala Posted December 24, 2003 Author Posted December 24, 2003 If you have NT, 2000, XP or 2003 you may need to type "ipconfig /release" prior to typing "ipconfig /renew" Sung to Monte Pythons "Spam"... Vote Vote Vote Vote Vote Vote Vote Vote Quote

tdiggity11 Posted December 24, 2003 Posted December 24, 2003 i find both stories very romantic and thoughtful. i think they should both be winners. diamond cutters has gotten more hits from these two stories. it is a shame that both couples cannot receive something from diamond cutters for talking up their site so much.

+Doc-Dean Posted December 24, 2003 Posted December 24, 2003 We are over a Hundred votes behind. Anybody got any ideas for expanding our visiblity? Vote Here - Please. I posted the story and request to votes to 2 yahoo groups: Florida Geocaching and the Magellan Meridian group. If anyone is a member of any of the other yahoo groups that are somewhat tied to geocaching, maybe you could post it there. Quote
+Lazyboy & Mitey Mite Posted December 24, 2003 Posted December 24, 2003 It's looking bad. To vote twice try logging off. You sometimes get a new ISP doing that. 6. Finally 52.4% (666 Votes) 4. Geocaching for Love 44% (559 Votes) Quote

CAKoala Posted December 26, 2003 Author Posted December 26, 2003 (edited) What amazes me is the constant 100 vote separation. We are doing SUCH A GOOD job of keeping up the pressure. I can't wait to see the flurry of activity on New Years Eve. Vote Early - Vote Often ;-) Edited December 26, 2003 by CAKoala Quote
+Planet Posted December 26, 2003 Posted December 26, 2003 well, we're falling behind. I tried to vote from all the computers at the office but they are all on one network and it won't let me vote again from them. Spread the word! We're behind by 146!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Quote
+Halden Posted December 26, 2003 Posted December 26, 2003 I have vorted half a dozen times. Tired of logging in and out. Still not cathing up. They must have found a great source of votes. Quote
+JMBella Posted December 26, 2003 Posted December 26, 2003 Over 200 votes behind. Cheatin' b@S%@*$! Quote
+Brian - Team A.I. Posted December 26, 2003 Posted December 26, 2003 If you're going through a NAT, you'll probably only be allowed to vote once, due to lack of unique IPs for each computer. If they each have a separate IP, then ok. Quote

ju66l3r Posted December 29, 2003 Posted December 29, 2003 BUMP.... PS...I'm more than willing to call shenanigans...come on now, obviously they have found someone who can get around the CGI, because this is just absurd. It looks like over 100 people voted on Xmas day alone...who was logging in, let alone voting...and 100 of them? Hardly. I wish I could get a script to force the vote.... Quote

+Doc-Dean Posted December 29, 2003 Posted December 29, 2003 maybe we all should complain to the website sponsoring the vote, although it will certainly look like we are being sore losers... Quote

+ICQ Cache Crew Posted December 30, 2003 Posted December 30, 2003 I don't like the results 'm seeing right now:(( almost 300 votes behind Perhaps start a new thread? Changing the title to Vote for Geocachers or.... Vote for the Geocache proposal... I almost didn't even read the thread when I read Geocaching Lovers. But..... as you can see.... I did stumble into the post anyway and I did vote:) Quote

tdiggity11 Posted December 30, 2003 Posted December 30, 2003 it sucks to be losing this badly. it's amazing that we are losing this bad. we have thousands of posts on this site and we are still losing. i don't know what "Finally" is doing but whatever it is, it's working.... Quote

+EiskaltesHaendchen Posted December 30, 2003 Posted December 30, 2003 Voted. Great story. Greetings EiskaltesHaendchen Quote
+Lazyboy & Mitey Mite Posted December 30, 2003 Posted December 30, 2003 Well we shouldn't complain. Many of us voted multiple times. It could be just one person voting a thousand times. It's a shame but we've lost. Quote
tdiggity11 Posted December 30, 2003 Posted December 30, 2003 (edited) i agree with "lazyboy & mitey mite" we all cheated they were just better at it. everyone complaining sounds like a baby. actually, if you want to get technical, it is not cheating it is using resources. if we could have all voted 100 times we would have. so everyone pouting should stop.

+Team Fegel Posted December 31, 2003 Posted December 31, 2003 Hi, I just found this topic, but I posted for votes about it in a few other online communities (some where they actually know who I am, heh). So in the last hour or so I got you around 18 votes, with more coming. This is probably too little too late though. I assume it ends midnight tomorrow? -Jason Quote
+Touchstone Posted December 31, 2003 Posted December 31, 2003 They got my vote. Great story. Aint Love grand. Quote
