Did they fix the poll so that it's no longer cookie based?

they could be blocking IPs, or changed how it treats cookies, or perhaps the x and y (see my post a few posts ago) have something to do with authentication.

So... proxy servers out of the question?

nevermind. I just realized it'd ban the proxy.

It appears that NC State has a very good computer science dept followed closely by Oregon. Well maybe not that closely."

Even if it did, it would only buy you 5 votes.

this method still works fine. just delete any cookies you have from there, turn off cookies, vote once manually and then continually refresh the following page.

Only change is that they check for the referer now.

They must be morons.

Edit for your setup, votes once for all except UNC.

:start
for /L %%c in (1,1,50) do call :runWget %%c
for /L %%c in (52,1,100) do call :runWget %%c
sleep 5
goto start

:runWget
wget --cookies=off --delete-after -U "Mozilla/5.0" --referer="http://www.kiplinger.com/tools/colleges/vote.php" "http://www.kiplinger.com/tools/colleges/vote.php?college=%1&submit=vote"
sleep 1
goto :eof

You could also just make it vote for NCSU if you wanted, but I want to see UNC at the bottom of the pile.

I think they aren't blocking IPs because of those on proxies and want them to be able to vote. Cookies and referer address are the only things that they're checking right now.
