I’ve only been able to vote twice using this device (once using the “view mobile site” mode, once normally).

I don’t think this is the way communities want to win or gain an unfair advantage. Is the voting system cheatable? Yes, just like every other system, but luckily we are decent people and since there is no perfect system, we should ensure that the voting shows a valid result at least on the our side. After all, that’s the only way it makes sense. Otherwise, the ranking of the participants will only reflect who made the best voting bot or who managed to cheat the system the best? Maybe I am thinking different but yeah I like fair play. I’d rather be the last with fair than first in an unfair play. 🙂
