If we're recommending stuff, please just make the rule that you can't vote for your own entry (pizza, pumpkin, whatever) official going forward.

My blood boils a bit after every 'can I vote for myself' question. No, you can't, not sure what sort of a contestant even asks something like this.

Let the blood boil.   That seems to be on you. Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy

We can agree to disagree.

i don't see anything wrong with a participant voting for his own pizza, if he were to have a pizza in the contest, if he were eligible to vote, and if he were to choose to vote for his own pizza.

Yeah, you can say that - but we as a community should look to eradicate any kind of 'dicky' behavior and not support it.
I hate to see great ideas being ruined by shitty behavior - it is detrimental to any fun contests that can be done for the benefit of us all in the future.

Make your pizza, let people vote, if it's great you should get the reward. If people group up to vote, punish them because they don't work towards improving the contest but towards personal gain.

If a person votes for himself, well, he's a dick that thinks only about his own benefit - it's as clear as that.
Allowing people to vote for their own pizzas basically means that you reward dicks with 1 extra vote, and if fair players want to reach even ground they need to become dicks as well. Not great, don't you agree?
