They just brought him back down to 238. You would think they would have disqualified him.

No kidding. I see they knocked off a few votes from you as well. No need to double vote people, it only makes us look just as bad but I'm guessing that the small drop in FPs ranking was because only a few people double voted. I'm guessing now they're knocking off votes from the same IP address.

Glad to see they put that little imp back in place, though I agree they should have eliminated them from the contest. I hope they didn't knock off because of the IP address, we have multiple people who use my connection. Oh well, at least the XF is where it belongs...I just don't understand why the Mustang Shelby isn't getting more votes than it is.

I didn't notice. How many did they knock off?

They don't have issues with votes from the same IP as long as they are different e-mail address. They instructed my daughter to clear the cooking so she could vote from my PC.

Knocked off 190 points from you. That pretty much means 19 people voted twice or they thought 19 votes weren't legit

Wow, I must have caught up with some. I guess the last time I looked at my votes I was about where I am now. I was too busy watching him cheat. Oh, well I guess 19 questionable votes is not too bad in comparison.

Thanks team and keep up the good work.

Well it seems Texaco has put their house in order. I want to thank all of you who have voted. It's great having the support of friends.

For those who have not, please vote. We can't rest on the lead we have. This guy (Smart) seems to pad his his votes. He might start again.


How great will it be to have a Crossfire win this decade.

Thanks Team.

I know no respectful, kind, proper Crossfire owners would pad the vote of their fellow brethren!

Somehow that guy has found his way to get back up to third place after admin stripped him of a lot of points and put him down to about 6th or so place.

The Texaco moderators don't work the weekend. Let's see what they do tomorrow. E-mails to them concerning this can help.

I voted! Gave you a 10, mostly because it's black.

I like the comment you posted for the Smart car Deb (Corky).
