Heya all

Im currently trying to build up my games top list and im having trouble with some webmasters who cant avoid cheating.

Anyways they are using program which changes your proxy use every second which means new ip every second.
With this way they can cheat horrible :/

Only thing right now i got against it is that you can only get one vote (in) once per 5 minutes.
But that doesnt help much :/

New suggestions are welcome aswell :)


Best Regards
