I'm not sure that everybody is playing fair with Hasbro's Monopoly All-Ireland edition website which allows you to vote for your country to be included in the all-ireland edition.. Leitrim at #1? You gotta be kidding me.. Could be the extreme security which can only be cracked using expensive and unavailable applications like wireshark

Yep, it'd be pretty tricky to script a HTTP post command. Even tricker to fake an email address. Not sure I'm up to it & I certainly wouldn't advocate it. I'm not sure IIS 5.0 would handle the load anyway. Either way when you monitor the voting results it looks a tad suspicious.
