Suggestion for Punisher contest

[Higher_Desire]

Hey Steve -- On the contest entries, I think it would be better if we had to enter our password as well. With just having to enter your screen-name, people could enter other people's names so they get disqualified for more than one entry. Just a suggestion for future contests.

I log IP addresses of who entered the username. If it doesn't match an IP used with that board account, it won't be counted as a valid entry... i.e. if you entered my username in the form, it will list your IP with my username. I can verify if the IP is valid for my username. If it isn't, it won't be considered a valid entry and I'll just remove that entry from the contest.

Ooohhhhhh. Gotcha.

I was logged into a school computer, but with my password and username. That still counts correct?

Yes it counts. Anytime you log in to your account, no matter what computer its from, the IP address is logged with your username. So I'll know it was you.
