Okay so another issue here is that how come the same voter will hit a large percentage of your images in a short time...where as other voters will only get to vote on one or two of your images over a longer period of time..

I dunno... sorry..

As I attempted to explain earlier, if someone has voted on every image in the database the previous day then every image presented to them that day will be new images. There is no way around it.

Yep, I voted for three days in a row and ended up voting on 7 photos from one particular photographer in one session. I don't think there is any way round it except spacing out the number of photos that are uploaded at any one time.

I have a question on a similar vein. I am looking at the image stats of one of my photos, and it says for example that I have 2 "5" votes but when looking through the actual votes I only see 1 (and I checked 3 times to make sure I didnt miss it). If this vote was removed due to whatever reason (lots of people reporting, unfairness, etc) why is it also not removed from the stats bar graph? Or is it? Am I reading this wrong? Thank you.

If a member deletes their account, their individual voting record is also removed from the 30 day voting detail history. 

.

While their vote has been recorded for the image and remains in the rating calculation (and overall voting graph); the vote detail is no longer available for view because the voter's account is no longer active on the site.  WE

Also, If you notice that the vote history is only for the last 30 days   So if the vote that you are looking for was cast more then 30 days ago it won't show up in the image's voting history stat's only on the graph.

OK, makes sense, thanks, another question and this is more of a stumper than the last one for me. I recieved 8 new votes in the last hour or so. They are the same vote and all from the same person within minutes of eachother. How is it possible for someone to vote so fast? I know my images dont come up one after the other and they arent new or even added in the last few days. Unless this person is voting in .4 seconds per photo, how is this possible? The dilemma Im facing is that this is a higher weighted person that is voting and if all they are doing is going through as fast as possible and hitting a #, how is that fair? How can that be stopped?

.

What is the amount of time you think should be spent voting on an image?  It is never a race but one can vote images at a reasonable pace and be accurate in their assessment.

.

Members voting at or near the end of the voting buffer will be presented with a very high proportion of new entries.  This is a normal occurrence.   I have received votes on 3 of my nine active images in the past hour too.  There is certainly nothing there to indicate any type voting misconduct. 

.

Personally, I an happy to receive the votes.  Many thanks to all the voters at Daily Awards.  WE
