To be frank I'm a bit surprised you are now saying what you regard as fair and what cheating and not before the actual voting. Maybe I've never taken part in such voting before, but in my view such things as rules should be clearly outlined (in detail) before voting commence.

Someone above had said Diamond Coin has no community.. it's laughable,  on the contrary I've never heard about PandaCoin (apart from people complaining it to be a scam) or the other coins who got hundreds of votes.

As per my conversation with 'Prodigy' we aggregated some of our votes. Those members of the community who did not have any bitcoins but fully supported the idea were subsidised by more wealthy community donors. We saw this as legitimate behaviour with no ill intentions. It would be a shame to learn that you've changed your mind or that we were not fully aware of all the rules.

In any case (for the future), please be more specific on what exactly is not permitted, because what's not permitted is usually allowed.

It's been exciting to follow the stats for the last few days; congratulations to anyone who won the race
