Default Make the S the best in the UK!

In the UK one of the TV stations is running a series on the most popular and favourite cars of the nation ever.

We obviously want the S to win, especially as one of the forum members over there has just been driving and interviewed for 4 hours to get footage of the S.

Please followe this link to the UK thread and in there is the link to the TV station's website. It's all free!!!!!!

We want the S as #1 currently it's the 200SX

Please spread the word as well

Thanks

The link is UK forum page

Why not just have somebody write a script to automatically vote a few times every second?

That's how these web based votes usually turn out.

There'll be several cars, most with a few hundred votes. But two of them, with warring fan bases, will end up with several hundred thousand votes. Soon enough, the website will take down the poll and be done with it.

Web based polls are worthless, IMO.

Whether it's worthless or not as an effective method of democracy - we should still want the S to win and do whatever it takess to do it don't you think.

Like I said, find a tech savy friend and write a good script.

They're saying the Nissan 200SX is winning this thing! You've gotta be kidding!

There are hundreds of active members here at s2ki.com. C'mon guys. Get off your dead butts and vote. It only takes 2 minutes max!

Hehe. You must understand - for me personally, having the S2000 with some number of web votes more than some other car doesn't have the slightest relevance to anything I would consider glory.

That doesn't even take into account that these things are ultimately decided by the script writers. Although it's actually rather fun to see niche cars like this with millions of votes.

they need polls that log ip addresses, so dublicate votes cannot be entered.
