OK people, enough. F-U Penguin is a SATIRE blog, and the blogger is staying in character. WE DO NOT HATE EACH OTHER. Please try to get that. If you watch The Colbert Report, that might help. Really.

Let’s us stay in character too, hmm? Peace.

Just took a look over at FU Penguin. Then tried to see where CO cheated.

What the penguins over there fail to note is that once you voted, you were locked out of the voting for 24 hours. I checked this when I got uh, overexcited. The lock out worked.

As for the linking. There is NOTHING in the rules that state you can or cannot directly link to the poll.

My guess is that FU is upset over losing their lead at the last minute, and is yelling cheater instead of actually trying to find out what happened. As far as I can tell, CU did everything right.

I suspect, though, the Weblog Awards will declare a tie. It’s that close, only a little over a hundred votes seperates CO and FUP. Or there could always have a runoff. At least there is no chad in this race….

The option to embed it was made available TO EVERYONE at first, but Weblog Awards disabled the feature FOR EVERYONE because of server load. So having had the poll embedded at some point can hardly be called cheating.</p> <p>I'm personally so happy that CO won. The voting was more exciting than watching a game on tv!</p></div>
