En el caso de que se vuelvan a mostrar irregularidades en la votación, MTV se verá obligado a cerrarla definitivamente y seleccionar el ganador según los criterios previamente establecidos por el jurado calificador. La fecha de inicio de la nueva votación será informada este lunes. Muchas gracias por su comprensión."
Which I loosely translate, as a white american with a couple pointless high school spanish classes as:
Due to a problem in the animation contest with the votes being generated automatically, and considering protecting the oppurtunities of the other contestents in the animation category, we have decided to stop the voting process and start again fairly at a later date. In the case of of monstrous irregularities in the voting, MTV will likely disqualify and ban any participants needed. Thank you for your comprehension.
lol.. a whole bunch wrong with that translation but you get the idea.
Hi NG Friends! I´m sorry the voting polls haven´t started up yet, but I hope you can still help me when they do. I´ll translate the message clearly for you cause there have been some mistranslations =)
It says:
"Due to problems in the automatic voting security (this is because of that guy that hacked the place) and so that the contestants have a fair and equal opportunity of participating, we´ve decided on reset the voting polls which will resume starting next week.
If Hacking irregularities still show, we´ll be obliged to cancel the voting polls. "
So please NG mates, I NEED your help! When the voting polls reset, please help me. You´ve all been so nice to me, and I know I can count on you =) !
