Help a swamper out

Post by A_B »

Friend's son is up for player of the week. Last name Knopp, about halfway down the list(edit: looks like it randomizes names each time, so no way to know where on the list he will be). I apologize for how shitty the poll is. He's in second, about 50 votes behind. Ends at noon eastern. Can vote from phone and multiple browsers to really rig the system.

I voted and it apparently broke a tie since it said 3240 for him and 3239 for the next kid. Also Kentucky.com needs to come back to my company since our polling software is way better than this.

Questions. Do the parents know you're doing this? If so, will the parents be able to derive some sense of pride over their child winning player of the week knowing that they rigged it online? Did he really have a better week than Jaden Stinson? Lexington Catholic vs. Lexington Christian? I'm guessing there's no Lexington Muslim?

Goodness you think too much. The parents were the one who sent the links out to people. And almost without question, he wasn't the best performance of the week.

It will be unfortunate if he gets disqualified because of a New Jersey click farm.

Yeah, who fucking cares how he wins, with such a ridiculous poll mechanism, I just voted 3 times as a form of protest.

Based on that website, I'm not entirely sure they know what a click is, much less how to farm them.

It appears he selects a few from each region of the state. But it's way too many.

I kind of agree with J-Lo, but I voted anyway. And then, looking at the results, it's clear it's just a popularity contest. The kids at the top are definitely not the best performers (I saw some kid with 200+ yards rushing, a bunch of tackles, and the game-winning TD as time expired. Not near the top of the votes.) So, if it doesn't really matter, then why not vote?

I'm sorry I have created such a moral conundrum on this fine Friday morning. I will be sure to inform the parents that the whole thing is illegitimate and they should feel no joy ever again in their life.

Looks like there are some bad games in Kentucky, and Muhlenberg County! I haven't been there since we used to shoot with our pistols. (Don't worry empty pop bottles was all we would kill.)
