GoZips Posted October 2, 2007 Report Posted October 2, 2007 Well, my vote for Zippy against OTTO from Syracuse never got counted. Now it seemsthat I cannot even vote for Zippy against Joe Bruin.I tried several times to vote for Zippy against OTTO of Syracuse, I could never obtain their secret code that is used to make sure you only vote once. Thus, I never got tovote for Zippy.Its fraud. Its rigged. Its a fake. It sucks. They cheat.Now with Joe Bruin I see that I have to vote for ALL six contests. Funny thing is, onceI did that I discovered that I still could not get a "gotcha" code. Thus far I have beenunable to vote.Is there a different way to vote? I know that clicking on the link RASOR provided drewa dead end as well.Frustrated. Its rigged. They cheat. Capital One wants a winner from a "name" school. I just checked the Capital One Bowl website. I just now learned that supposedly you can vote every day. I did not know this.Do they give you the code only once per week and that authotizes you? How is thisthing working. I admit, I am confused.According to Capital One: Sponsor is not responsible for technical failures of any kind or any problems or delays arising from any technical, software or equipment malfunctions, computer viruses, congestion on or unavailability of the Voting site during the Write-In Contest any other technical, equipment or human errors of any kind. If Sponsor determines in its sole discretion that there is any suspected or actual evidence of electronic or non-electronic tampering or fraud relating to any portion of the Write-In Contest, or if technical difficulties compromise the integrity of the Write-In Contest, it may cancel, terminate, modify or suspend the Write-In Contest, in whole or in part, at any time without notice.They are cheating.

GoZips88 Posted October 2, 2007 Report Posted October 2, 2007 WHOA GoZips! We need your voteS! Take a breath ... probably just a procedural thing.1. www.capitalonebowl.com2. Vote for one of the two in each head-to-head (Cocky, Seymour, Hairy Dawg, Hokiebird, ZIPPY, Otto this week).3. Enter the code that is displayed in the box. Sometimes it is VERY hard to read and what you type won't match. The system will tell you so after you hit Submit and will give you a new code to enter, hopefully one that is easier to read.4. Enter a nickname that you've created. Keep in mind that you can only vote once per day using THAT nickname but there is nothing preventing you from creating multiple nicknames. Also keep in mind that others may use your nickname if it is a fairly common one i.e. 'smith,' 'jones,' 'montana,' 'monte,' 'hairydawg,' 'otto,' 'syracuse,' ... (not that I have been stealing nicknames from others or anything like that ... ) If the system tells you that a nickname has already cast a vote that day, just move on to your next favorite nickname. Once a nickname has been set up, it can be used once daily from that day forward.5. Hit the Submit button.6. Clear your browser's cache, history, etc. by clicking on Tools/Delete Browsing History.../Delete all .../Yes (assuming you are using Internet Explorer 7).7. Close your browser, re-open it, and go back to step 1.I've tested this process many, many, many, MANY times each day just to make sure it works.Go Zippy!!!!! Quote
Dr Z Posted October 2, 2007 Report Posted October 2, 2007 6. Clear your browser's cache, history, etc.7. Close your browser, re-open it, and go back to step 1.10:1 odds this is your problem. Quote

Go Zips:I've had the same problem, and it was an issue on my end.I know I was typing the correct security code, but it would not accept my vote.All I did was clear out the cashe, closed the browser, reopened and then did the procedure again.It was just a matter of obtaining a new security code.Don't know why, but I know doing what I just explained works.Good luck!
