I am getting a lot of emails about this. Please hold off a bit and give the Ourstage folks a chance to investigate this and react accordingly. No matter how honest of a system you try to create, people sadly will always seek to get an unfair advantage, whether it's Major League Baseball (Steroids), the National Football League (The Patriots Spygate), NASCAR (Some Toyota teams trying to cheat), The NYC Marathon (where they took the subway most of the race) or any others. (Politics anyone?). Daniel is aware of this issue and I've made some suggestions I think could dramatically limit the impact of this type of effort. If the site had millions of voters, even this type of cheating would be fruitless, but remember, Ourstage is a new and growing site. You can build a great system but you can't predict how people will try to cheat it. All you can do is react to it when it happens and do the right thing then.

Let's give them a chance to fix this.
