    Nice Contest. Just interested in knowing, how would you cope up with spam voting like registering an account just for increasing vote on any article.

    • bbrian017 says:

      Good questions Typhoon, when every member signs up with blogengage they are assigned a sign up IP and a last log in IP. This allows me to manage and maintain duplicate accounts. Also if the top engaged blogger has 50 or 60 votes and they are all without avatars and unfilled profile area’s we know it’s a scam. Small things I have learned over the past 2 years to help build our community.

      It would be very obvious if someone cheated in the contest.

        Ok..That could be way but as having some experience in hacking field, Are you able detect Socks 5 and 4 which is a much better replacement of using different IP’s.

        Socks is a way with which you can hide your real IP and show some different IP from any country to fool the system. Note that Socks is way better replacement than using Anonymous IP(proxy)..

          Typhoon,

          It’s going to be hard but I’m sure I can manage telling the difference between fake votes and real votes. I’ll take your suggestions and do some research to see if I can in fact follow and track using Socks. I know cheating will be an issues as we proceed further into the contest. I was also thinking people will have a lot of votes from users that don’t update their profile seeing they are only here to vote. Worst case scenario we take the top 10 and create a Word Press poll to determine the winner.
