Actually, I'm kinda wondering
What hasn't stopped someone from writing a bot that does this. i.e. 4chan writes a script to flood the polls with Hitler or Pepe
Morals?
One thing's for certain: If Hitler makes top of the poll, or any character that has no videogame related origin, that character gets chucked in the bin first thing. I'm also sure that at two to five votes from the same computer, they'll consider the fact that maybe multiple family members or room/housemates cast a single vote, but a spam is easily recognized and disqualified (the vote, not the character). And I'm sure Yacht Club (for example) doesn't want to jeopardize their relationship with Nintendo.
I made my two votes on different devices by the way. The first was on my brother's PC before I had my laptop and my second on, well, my laptop. You could say my first vote was in my brother's name. I doubt he would've voted for Tails though, but he doesn't really care.
This...is a huge argument for another day, but as nice as it is that you made sure to cover your tracks by voting from two completely different devices (spoilers: it's the same location so if they were super strict about this, they could void one of the votes) I'm sure "morals" wouldn't be the first that comes up to a person or group who REALLY wants ...say, Sukapon as a playable character and is SO passionate about this that they come up with some kind of application that permits them to do this.
I mean, 4chan managed to get Moot as one of the most influential people of the year in TIME magazine some time back - this wouldn't be too far off lmao
It'd be kind of surprising if the poll results DID turn out to be Spongebob or Goku because of this though. lmao
