I am not surprised to see cheating in this competition, and I remember something similar happened with voting in discord.
Ah yes, the good old discord bitcointalk pizza day voting where some guy brought bunch of brand new Discord accounts to bitcointalk server (that have nothing to do with bitcointalk) just to vote for him, those votes were accepted and he shared the 1st prize.

Anyway, not a surprise to see such drama and cheat attempts cosidering the hefty prize pool.
