I like Rick's idea of voting in only one community. I also like the idea of limiting only one image in the H20 from any artist. I also particularly like the idea of using the IP address as the definition of a 'voter' to reduce the clone account votes. Technically speaking, in general each computer has a unique IP address. So this would eliminate clone votes except from real techies who get into the nitty gritty and change IP addresses just to get around this, and those who play musical computers at the library or an internet cafe. (Probably not many fall into this category.) Unfortunately, additional bona fide users of the same computer would be unable to vote, but I wonder how many of those there are? Perhaps Rendo could do some investigating and find out how many Rendo accounts normally share the same IP address? Can we get some feedback on this from the Rendo managers?
