You don't need an account to vote, so if anyone can be bothered to go back more than once you can vote as many times as you like and they'll all count.

Not sure I'll go and vote a third time though.

Voted for Ming... heh, if all 40 thousand Apolytoners got to the poll, Ming would be in a good lead .

Maybe I should quickly code a program to send a few hundred votes for Ming, eh?

Thanks for the heads up, Kaak.
Maybe we can get Ming the Merciless Bastard the recognition he so richly deserves.

I have voted (twice already) I will vote ming agin when I get to another IP adress. Ming the only one of the tyrants that went for the women, with qyuite and atractive harem. His next compeditor in that department is the Beast, who wanted just one formal but unconsumated marriage.
