    I would look for all the fradulant accounts and flag them up with Facebook. I would also reply to her saying that you are doing this but that maybe as there has been a complaint made she should check out all accounts otherwise it is a rigged competition. Then find some blurb on google about fixed competitions and send that to her and await her reply. :)

    my friend messaged her last night and her reply was

    "Well, I looked in to that a little bit, but after selecting many of the voters randomly they all had many friends, profile pictures and a great number are friends with me, so it seems alright. I know a couple of the brides have been campaigning all over the internet...I'm just going to encourage people to vote and say all's fair in love and war! Whoever has the most likes wins! I'd think there would be more effective ways to get votes than create imaginary people, but if someone takes that kind of time, I'm not going to take the time to figure it out...it does look like the voters are real people and I don't mind if she campaigned.

    My hairdresser and stylist friend both think the flowered apron is the worst...personally I go for the big sleeves or the Gone With the Wind garb...but my hairdresser and stylist may be right. ha ha According to statistical probability the more votes that come in the closer we are to the truth.

    I posted on my wall to please vote for the worst. That's the best we can do. What a fun contest though! ALL the entries are fantastic.

    Thanks for taking an interest! "


    she clearly doesn't care which is really unproffesional! grrrr i'm rather anger now :mad:

    I can not see the difference between them getting votes and yourself coming on here for votes, why are you so desperate to win? Just enjoy the comp

    I think fly is narked because it looks like one of the other girls who is rooting for votes, is making up false facebook accounts purely so she can vote for herself.

    Only advice I have is play her at her own game!

    i'm desprate to win because i wouldn't be able to afford her wedding dresses other wise.

    if i'm asking people to vote its upto them to do so.

    by creating yourself accounts to cheat is totally different.

    thanks for the help so farSarcasticSmiley.jpg

    what do i reply to this?

    thanks

    Absolutely nothing. I think you've become so caught up in this that your good common sense has left you.

    You've passed on your concerns, now leave it.

    Everyone will do whatever they need to, to win. You can sit there complaining about the unfairness for as long as you want, but that's not going to help you, is it? Yes, it would be better if all things were won fairly but life's not like that so either accept it and move on, or get your fighting gloves on and fight back. ;)
