I wonder if for the finals they want to keep the tally private. The timeline says the winner is announced at 10am the day after votes close.

Sure, they know we'll slow our voting if the 80% vs 20% smackdown stabilized.

We need to vote each day. No quit!!!

I take the stopping of showing of %'s as they are so lopsided they don't want to discourage folks from visiting the website (for which they are compensated). The lack of transparency raises legitimate questions about its propriety, but then again it is more a fun outlet for us fans than a prestigious award for Marcus.

From the homepage: "(**Voting Results for the Finals will be HIDDEN to increase suspense!**)"

If I were them, I would be paying attention to the referrers. That is, where people clicked on a link to get to their site. If most W&M folks are clicking on the link on this message board, csnbbs would be showing as a significant referrer.

Remember to tell your friends to vote. We should all vote once a day, every day. I just went through this entire thread and am pleased that we're all following this formula. Nice job.

What kind of suggestion is this?

The vote site admin has rules and they may come here to review our voting practices. I just reviewed this entire thread and I'm happy to report we're all following the rules. Well done.

I must have misunderstood you the first time, makes sense.

Marcus Thornton jumped out to an early lead in the CCR MM POY contest finals, but Jalen Riley has since made a massive comeback

Doesn't sound like it was taken private because of any lopsided voting......

It won't let me vote

I'm getting "your vote has already been counted".

Our official policy is to vote once a day because we want to follow the vote website's rules.

That said, in any other situation where you may want to repeat an action, you would need to go to your browser's "history" and clear your history. If you use Chrome, click the icon with three lines stack upon each other at the far right (next to your website address) --> click "history" --> click "clear browsing data." Or, you can hold down "Ctrl" and "H" simultaneously and it will take you directly to the history section.

Or, for example, if you're married and you don't want your spouse to know you visited a naughty website, you would want to clear your browser's history so he or she wouldn't see which websites you visited.

On Chrome:
1) Copy link
2) CTRL + SHIFT + N (open incognito browser)
3) CTRL + V (pastes copied link in browser)
4) VOTE
5) ALT + F4 (closes incognito browser. Very important)
6) Repeat steps 2-6 (once a day, of course)

It has been over 24 hours since I voted and it will not let me today. I am on a mobile device so my ability to clear and Alt and such is limited as is my cyber knowledge.

Went to Tribe Athletics via Facebook and used the link and was able to vote Marcus.

You can do incognito on Chrome for mobile as well. I'm not sure on other devices or platforms.

One less step: (or is it fewer? :) )
1) Open http://www.collegecourtreport.com/
2) Right-click on link to voting and "open link in incognito window"
3) VOTE
4) Close incognito window
5) Repeat once per day, of course
