[Mgs] Death Trap

Beats me.  That just went way beyond my expertise in computers.  Although, I 
do hear that it is getting to the point where it requires a lot of votes to 
make a difference in the percentages.  That will get worse as the number of 
votes mount up.  Pretty good reason to stay on top of it now rather than 
trying to play catch-up later.

The cookie thing seemed not to work for me - it allowed me to vote
multiple times but it didn't seem to alter the result after the first
vote.

We even tried a string of votes from people at work with the same
result.

Are you sure they are not checking IP Addresses too?  If so then they
would be getting the same IP address (via a cache engine/proxy
server) for the people in my office and that would answer that question.
