You can easily create bots with different IP's to vote for you and fuck the polls, TNA realized that and said "fuck it, vote how many times you want"

I just wish there was somehow that TNA could reunite the switchblade conspiracy (sammi callihan and jon moxley).but thatll never happen

twtpoll runs through cookies, so all the bots have to do is erase the cookies continuously and voting continuously is easy. Unfortunately, it seems like a lot of the poorer wrestlers in this competition have found out and now we're stuck with this shit.

Yeah this is still a mess. I can easily pump out 10k a day not even pushing it. One guy I was watching has put up ~8k votes in ~6 hours. The ultimate winner is virtually guaranteed to be the dude with the most computers going 24/7. Could be a refeee, could be someone who accidentally stumbled into a seminar and paid the 20 bucks, doesn't really matter.

The ultimate winner will be decided by this crappy ass system? Highly doubt that.

TNA are suspending/postponing the Gut Check Challenge voting. They say that in fairness to the competitors, they are going to fix the issues and bring it back at a later date.

Fufflefuff · 02-06-2013, 04:29 PM

It was getting ridiculous. Apparently a few had found a way to hack the poll entirely and just give themselves tens of thousands of votes in seconds. I'm not sure what they can do to fix it. No internet poll is going to be secure in reality.

My problem with it was it was to much work. They shouldn't of had SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO many people. I didn't want to take so much time sorting out each poll and researching.

They should have done this in gap periods of different people.

For the fact people could vote over and over. Like someone said earlier,It was hardly being used.

For all the Sammi Callhan and Brisco fans:

sescoops reports:
We’ve got an update on the 3-day WWE tryout camp that took place over the weekend in Tampa, Florida. According to a source who was in attendance, it was described as the most grueling WWE tryout camp, with one wrestler quitting on the first day.

Among the top independent workers being evaluated were ROH stars Adam Cole and Mike Bennett, DGUSA stars Samurai Del Sol and Ricky Reyes, north east worker Smith James and Extreme Rising’s Luke Hawx. We can confirm that Sami Callihan the Briscoe Brothers were not there.

The talent will be informed within 2-4 weeks about whether they will be offered a developmental contract.

To be honest Sami and Brisco borthers would basically be useless in the wwe. They would be stripped of ther entire persona. All 3 are to bad ass for the wwe. With out that sweet person we love. What would they become ? Dancing with that big guy in dresses ?
