Doesn't matter, they're voting based on batting averages still, just without the hack program. It was nice to see new authors get a fair chance for a few days though, I geuss the admins can only do so much. Nice to know they're at least doing what they can about it though.

The system wasn't to prevent voting on batting averages. If you choose to do that, you choose to do that. You'll only get in trouble if you try to blam a new or F+ author who actually made a great flash and none of the other 199 people voted 0 on it.
No, the system was to prevent AUTOVOTING based on batting average (or on ANYthing, for that matter... doesn't matter if it was randomly selecting the score to give the movie, or giving all 0s or giving all 5s). What matters is that autovoting happens QUICKER than humans can vote, and it's not how the system was meant to be used. That's why the code was in place at all, to stop that. Voting based on batting averages was kinda the icing on the naughty cake, not the cake itself.

Awsome! I hope that the voting system works out perfectly and you guys get rid of the pop-ups.
