Apparently Shai'tan thought I was bluffing and tried it. Sorry Shai'tan. :-) (It's too bad I noticed, too, because you voted for the book I wanted to win.)

These kinds of scams aren't too uncommon. Usually they get tracked down and jailed. At any rate, there are a couple things I can use to find duplicate votes beyond comparing the email addresses. Obviously someone clever enough could get by it, but for a book election, I'm not too concerned about it.
