Aww, don't think about it that way. When I first came here I raged against the machine a bit myself. But I've settled down to thinking that the voters are ALWAYS right, even when they're wrong. LOL

Are you sure this is true? I thought the vote scrubber worked automatically, after the vote closes at midnight EST.


I am not sure, just my guess.

Well, all I have to say is "yes, voting down others to increase your rank works." If you do this, you are "ranker" than anyone! ;-)

On a more serious note, yes, to confirm, the vote scrubber process is a part of rollover, and the scrubber looks at a a user's voting pattern, no matter when the vote was cast. It only looks at the final value, it doesn't care (or know) whether a vote was changed.

I stand corrected and relieved. I am glad it is part of rollover
