Looks like a Iowa St fan voted 479 times in a row. wow.

Fultz, great NBA prospect- can't be the best PG when your team sucks

@BeddieKU23

Adam Morrison proved that you don't have to be a great NBA prospects to be a great college player; I am sure the Big Dub agrees...we certainly could use him now.

So I went to that site and voted for Frank. It then showed me his total votes as 176.

Then I refreshed my browser to see if it is even possible to vote again immediately after casting my first vote.

It wasn't possible as it showed the results again, but it had bumped Frank's vote numbers down to 170.

Looks like a rigged poll.

Everyone who goes there and votes needs to come back here and show vote totals.

Same weird thing happened to me, but if you remove the "sbnation" cookies and refresh, then you get up to date numbers and you can vote again.

If you have Chrome, just open the link in an "incognito window", vote, close the window. This can be done any number of times. I imagine other browsers have similar mechanisms.

I have Mason at 191 votes, 13%

P.S. In other browsers it's call "private browsing" or with IE 10, "InPrivate". It also works on many sites that offer only so many free articles per month.

@ParisHawk

Thanks for the advice.

Do you know why his numbers are going down on refreshes?

Dec 29, 2016 04:31 PM #7

@drgnslayr Not exactly. There must be some bug in the way data is being stored to and retrieved from the cookie.

@ParisHawk

I think you are right. And I just did another refresh and Frank picked up 4 votes.

Dec 29, 2016 04:34 PM #9

@drgnslayr Yes, but all my recent votes are gone, so my advice above is no good !

I'll come back with an update.

@ParisHawk

Maybe the drop in Frank's numbers is the removal of multiple votes.

Frank now has 724 votes (31%), tied for first with Monte Morris. We need to vote more!

Dec 30, 2016 04:06 PM #12

I think my recent votes got counted, but belatedly. The private/incognito browsing technique seems to work.

Dec 30, 2016 04:18 PM #13

I just cast another 5 votes for Frank. It looks like the private browser on safari works.

Lol at Iowas State fans voting Morris. ISU has done nothing impressive yet this year. The 3 decent teams they've played they lost to. Even dropped a game at home. I think this team could be the leagues biggest disappointment this season. This is the year we find out if Prohm is really a coach meant to be in a P5 conference.
