Thanks, Alex! I'm glad the league is proving to be popular.

I never look before voting, I like the surprise. This round I almost always voted for the loser of the moment, funny.

It's good you have the visitor counter Alex. Makes voting twice (or more) more difficult. I suppose you can re-set the counter at the start of every round. :) If it's just becoming more popular, it's really great. :) Though a 50% rise is... interesting.

About 1 and a half hour left to vote folks!

Well the amount of voters/votes have just been MEGA this round, so I guess you have already voted ;)

I'm slightly uncertain if I should do something about the possibility to cheat cause there's no way to control if people vote from several computers!

There's four options as far as I see it:

* Some kind of password protection of the voting
* Improve the polls
* Change the voting system into something less "modern"
* Let it be just as it is, trust that people play by the rules.

Feel free to give me tips!


You could give a different password to each voting boardie to enter the "games" section only once... But if anyone else wants to vote??
I dont think there is any way to avoid cheating but voter conscience....

I have decided to continue with the voting as it is.
Passwords for every voter and that kind of stuff sounds like too much work and I have enough to do as it is :P

So no more discussions about cheating please?
We have to live with the fact that it's possible to cheat and it's up everyone to decide if they want the results to be fair or not. Personally I would never vote more than once, it kills the game. I can live with my favourites not winning all the time, but it's on your conscience if you want to break the only rule there is. I guess things can't be 100 % perfect.

I think that the majority agrees with me so lets drop it for now?

You can enjoy the new and improved Travis Radio while I'm counting ;)

Can I ask for your opinion on something?

Should Unbelievers be considered as a cover?

Good call Alex!!
I think people should be trusted and I quite like the current voting system.
Apologies for bringing up the "cheating" issue in the first place.
The increased number of voters is to be expected - they want to know how cool the Travis league is, it's that simple :-)

If she gave it to the band then not, but i don't think that was the case. I would say it was a cover Alex. Did she release it herself in any form? :)

Sure we can ignore the probability... sorry possibility, of cheaters. You could still re-set the counter maybe if that's possible, just to help stop people trying if they have the idea. I know i won't be cheating ever as it's only a game. Just fun, so there's no need to cheat. I'm sure nobody else is. :)

I think that the Division 1 table should be the updated one?
