Maybe I should switch my votes to the Maserati Quattroporte and show what a farce this is.
Hehe, I've got a data center handy too. We should have a fight and see who wins. Or try to get the one with the least votes to the top

We are ahead by about 10,000 votes at the moment.

OK, my work is done. We're over the Vette by about 9000 votes.

I've stopped my wild voting process.

I feel dirty, rotten, and a little childish. But that's not a bad thing.

I made a little script to "autovote" using Autoit, the script votes and erase cookies and vote again, I left it running for a couple of hours and the maximum speed it could do was 1 vote every 6 seconds, the limitation was the slow responce from Forbes, I have to use my computer now but I'll start it again on monday, the good news is that Mustang is winning again

Hehe, I'm toying with the idea of leaving mine running over the weekend but I feel kinda childish for it. Anyway, the mustang has gained 50,000 votes since I posted that message saying how to cheat. It is now beating the vette by 30k votes

I have been watching the votes swing in the last week. After seeing the Vette up by a bunch before today, I just started laughing hysterically when I just looked at the voting and the mustang is about double on the Vette.
Nice code writing.
There is no way that the Vette is more popular than the mustang when the Vette is not a car that the masses can afford.

First, I don't think this poll falls with the 5% significance rule of modern day statistics. After all 95% of the votes are not real.

BTW, using this logic the Aveo can be deemed more popular than the Mustang because more of the population can afford it! I'm willing to bet a large % of non-enthusiast car buyers are sick of hearing about both of these cars. who else votes for the Cobalt?

Mike, You da man! :bowdown: Keep up the nice work!

Unfortunately, they took away my Sun station at work. Something about me being the last one have to pay for a Sun license. Cheap $%#@&*

Too bad, I'd leave it running for a week.

HAHAHAHA!!!! YOU GUYS ROCK!

But as much as I want to have 100,000 votes, I'm not sure we should do it. If no one notices, they might proclaim us the winners legitimately.

My fear is that the vette guys will read this and make programs of their own.

Hummm...... I'm not sure if HTT wanted us to go overboard.

Still, awesome work! Glad a few of you didn't give up on this. Any reasson to kick vette hiney (especially when they are cheaters) is a good one.

Simply move this thread to moderators only or to Super Stallions, and let's agree not to talk about the cheating.

Maybe I'll boost the Ford GT too, so we can have a 1-2 finish!
