Yo NS, this is a classic contest sway.

Please toss me a vote @ http://www.squawalpine.com/springskiingcapital#share

Comment "done" when you have voted and I will give you karma. Voting closes in a week.

If I win, I will choose someone who commented at random and ship them a prize:)

iFlipThis would work. You can also vote once per browser, so one on IE, Firefox, MSN, Chrome...etc.

Or, just do what the person cheating with the kids does and use a proxy.


Or just keep opening it in an incognito tab

Thanks dude.



I'm pretty sure they cheated. Every time I get ahead or start making a come back they gain 100+ votes in a matter of minutes. Now they're almost up 200 votes. I'll probably email Squaw tomorrow about it. Don't want to be greedy, and I could care less if they beat me fair and square, but if they cheat then I'll call them out for sure.

Kinda sad some people have so much greed in their hearts that they'll actually cheat on an instagram contest. That's what is wrong with this world:/

Whatever though. Hopefully it works out for me.

Even if I don't win I will still give out a prize for all of the support!

Pretty sure they are cheating. Also, every other photo just gained about 100 votes in a quick amount of time. Something is fishy.

My votes are the only ones that have been gaining gradually haha.

They put up 300+ votes at 11 PM? I don't buy it. I'll be sending squaw an email and asking them to check. Don't want to be greedy, but I think that the winner should be someone who didn't cheat, whether that is me or not.

It's certainly very suspicious. It really doesn't make sense that they could find that many people to vote in such a small time. Emailing squaw sounds like a good idea. Hopefully you win, the prize looks pretty cool!

Done.

This contest looks a little suspect. All the other photos have around the same amount of votes. Obviously yours has a lot more because contest sway/platform. The leading picture is cute and all...but I don't see where their votes are coming from. Especially because the poster of the photoo only has around 600 Instagram followers. Not nearly as big of a platform as ns and lencons Instagram combined.

Could be why..

But seriously like 4 or 5 times they gained about 100 votes in a matter of minutes. They might have gained a lot from that post, but there is no way 100 people voted for them in the same 15 minutes. They be cheating.

Also, a lot of her friends were commenting on my pictures and tagging me in her picture saying how I was cheating just because I was a few votes ahead lol. Hopefully squaw will check the votes.

If it was within a few hours then I would believe it.

But every time I got ahead or was approaching again, she would gain 100 votes in only 15 minutes. I highly doubt that. One night she also gained like 400 votes. I really doubt 400 people are online and voting at midnight. I mean I could be wrong, and if she won fair and square then so be it, but a lot of things line up to her cheating.

Also, her friends were commenting on my photos and tagging me in photos saying how I am a cheater. They could have easily done the cheating for her.

It does not need to be she who was doing the cheating. One of her friends, or even one of the people who saw that post may have been doing the cheating on her behalf, perhaps without her even knowing.

There is no doubt that a large number of her votes were illegitimate.

They cheated and won:(

Squaw didn't reply to any of my messages. Also pretty sure the chick who won has ties with the social media people.. at least that's what I've been told by a few people. Whatever though, bad karma will come their way:)

A prize will still be given out for y'all, Im pretty busy at the moment but one of y'all will get something.
