Dude you're right... I wonder if that's a bug in the display or if there's a bot that just adds votes in chunks. That's creepy.

If this number (93 votes per minute) increases as we get closer to the deadline, we are fine (unless theres a last minute surge), if it decreases steadily, all is lost. If it stays roughly consistent, it is almost certainly a bot, and all is lost.

I'm quoting properly now to avoid this getting too long.

OUR LEAD IS SHRINKING AGAIN-- I'm resetting the number to beat as 168.1 votes / minute


It is now exactly 0:55:00 left till the contest finishes (55 minutes)

Our lead is now 10090. This means that she the bot needs to increase her its LEAD by 183.5 votes per minute in order to win.

Theories:
1. Jennifer is actually botting
2. Some starcraft fans are botting for her just to spite us.
3. There's a super underground ESL community with hundreds of thousands of members who are voting.

I go for 2.

Noob conspirator. The more people you can involve the better.

What amazes me is that even if some ESL supporter(s) are using "bots" (automated voting based on clearing cookies), they can't vote with the pace needed for this. They need to be many people from many different IPs armed with autovoting. That kinda points again towards youtube being the real reason for this poll behavior (not necessarily on purpose, just weird updating).

Clearing cookies and revoting is no bot. That's extremely manual. A person with access to a huge botnet could potentially create a bot that automatically votes for X alternative with X computer at the rate of X. The only thing that would have to be done manually is the settings.
I don't mean manually clearing cookies. It can be automated too.

The bottleneck here is the Internet connection, and also the server for the poll itself. It has limitations, so you can't vote from one IP with higher than some rate. Based on this ESL actually needs many many computers running scripts to keep up with this rate. Or it's a youtube/google thing that causes the poll behavior.

edit: Bottomline - I don't think we are against bots. I think we may indeed be against google(youtube) itself.

All you need is a botnet. Something that is quite a popular business in many countries. They are far from as rare as you seem to think. A Youtube conspiracy seems far less realistic. Lol.
Oh, I didn't say it's a conspiracy. If it's a google/youtube thing, as I said before, it may be because they don't really show us real time numbers, but rather estimations, that they readjust from time to time, based on batch votes.
