INTL and VPN's for voting.

DISCLAIMER: I know this may be a riding the line of the spirit of the competition. I can't find anywhere in the rules where they suggest this isn't allowed but as DJWHEAT said last week this is the Survivor Season 1 on this competition. It's up to us to find out where the line is.

Now I've been trying to help out when I can with the INTL voting. I have myself a ProXPN premium account and recently found that damn near each time I connect I get a unique IP. Even without connecting to the same multiple times I can connect to each server individually for a total of 12 votes per day (not including anything other than pro XPN.

ProXPN does offer a free account where you are limited to only the Dallas VPN servers. That's still a huge opportunity for votes for Cohh. And lets be quite honest. Our Cohh really needs to push some vote numbers in the next two weeks. Now honestly since multiple IPs voting are considered fair game I lean on the side that this should be allowed. If nothing else we're talking about a few hundred extra votes from Cohhilition devout per day.

It should also be mentioned that you can do a free trial of the Premium account which should open you up to a few hundred more IP's. I would suggest perhaps holding of on that for the final week.

Though really I'll leave it up to the Cohhillition to decide is this is in the spirit of the competition. If I get enough feedback that this shouldn't be done I'll discontinue my use of VPN.

If anyone is having difficulties making accounts or getting it to work please let me know I'd be happy to assist.

Game on my friends and I hope this may aide us in helping Cohh push his dream that much more.

I don't see how much different this is than us already voting extra times on our mobile devices/other places (ex.libraries). Just on a larger scale so I think it'd be fine.
