Can you even imagine convincing yourself that you just HAVE to commit VT voter fraud Personally, I hope I have a secret nemesis and I receive a private message that just has "mwahahahaha" in the subject. I would live for that drama.

So pretty big update: There were a total of 166 votes this round. Unbelievable (considering the most votes any other round has gotten is 40 votes), amiright? WELL, that's because some @$$%*!* decided to vote ~ 110 times.
Ultimately this is my fault - I forgot to select the setting "Limit to 1 vote" for this round. However, still pretty !!!!###$$$!!!ing disappointed in the moron who !!!!###$$$!!!ed this up. Hope you got enjoyment out of this. ONWARDS AND UPWARDS THOUGH WITH TWO OPTIONS: 1. I can tell via the timestamps on the results which votes were duplicitous (they were all also for the same 2 teams). It probably won't be perfect, but it saves us having to redo the round. OR 2. We can redo the round (same voting link, deleting the results, limiting to 1 vote by forcing log-in). Those of you who have enjoyed this, mind sharing your thoughts on the 2 options above? Sorry again everyone - I know this isn't the most seamless experience. Never done this before so learning as I go. Re-vote! I was away from VT and missed my chance to vote for this round

Just erase the fraudulent votes, if you can do it with certainty. Logging in is always a pain.

Personally, I hope I have a secret nemesis and I receive a private message that just has "mwahahahaha" in the subject. I would live for that drama. Have you decided which way to go yet? This championship bracket is becoming more drawn out than an NBA playoff series! (jk apologies for the delay - I have been travelling for work lately mucho and have a gnarly cold. I want to sit down and figure out my confidence for excluding votes. There are certain votes that I am 100% sure I can exclude, others I am less sure about. So I want to say ok if I only exclude the 100%, who wins? If I exclude the ones I am 75% sure are dups as well, who wins? If it becomes really close or the results differ then I will probably do a revote. BTW, what makes it really hard too is that the dups caused the underdogs to win by landslides.)

Do whatever you have to do to the votes so it's PSU 07 vs PSU 08 and then it's fine because it's correct ok

Do the final as a Volleytalk poll and I bet you will get more participation.
