I was surprised to see Noah so high on the list this morning, especially since most of yesterday he didn't have any votes at all. So, I looked at the site logs/stats and it seems that a group of Carly fans from a different site (which shall remain unnamed) all came at the same time from that site and all voted for Noah as a block and skewed the poll significantly. I had noticed some block voting like this in past polls as well, so I may have to start restricting poll voting to members of this site only to prevent the polls from being skewed by members of other sites in this manner.

The current polling system that I'm using will not allow this kind of restriction and as of right now, Nabble doesn't have it's own polls. It's possible that I could move the polls into a private forum that only allows approved users to view and participate in the polls, but I think that would bring about some other issues. Of course, I may be moving the message board from googlepages fairly soon, so it's also possible that I may find a solution wherever I ultimately move the board. For right now the polls will remain as they are and I'll be looking into finding another solution. I'll be sure to make an announcement if anything changes regarding the polls.
