Yep, but the interesting part is here, the actual proof they've deleted some unwanted votes. These logs are real, I've no interest in making up numbers. This is for statistical purposes only, I don't want to be sued by SI Swimshits ;-) Date: Sat, 28 Feb 2015 05:11:53 GMT Erin Heatherton, id:38644538, total:241001, percent:39.74 Kelly Rohrbach, id:38644540, total:194819, percent:32.13 Date: Sun, 01 Mar 2015 00:30:26 GMT Erin Heatherton, id:38644538, total:194296, percent:33.71 <--- lol? She had 241k votes the day before Kelly Rohrbach, id:38644540, total:205728, percent:35.69 A few minutes ago (yep, they kept the script online... ): Date: Mon, 02 Mar 2015 12:32:26 GMT Erin Heatherton, id:38644538, total:201114, percent:32.19 Kelly Rohrbach, id:38644540, total:246534, percent:39.46 As per the 50 votes/second, it was just an estimate, but not too distant from actual numbers: Date: Sun, 01 Mar 2015 00:29:21 GMT Kelly Rohrbach, total:205435 Date: Sun, 01 Mar 2015 00:29:23 GMT Kelly Rohrbach, total:205511 That's about 38 votes/sec in this particular instance, but numbers were fluctuating like crazy in these moments, their mega-voting script had just started.

For statistical purposes, here are the # of votes on Sun, 01 Mar 2015 00:30:26 GMT Ashley Smith, model id: 38644537, total: 17729, percent: 3.08 Erin Heatherton, model id: 38644538, total: 194296, percent: 33.71 Hailey Clauson, model id: 38644539, total: 20708, percent: 3.59 Kelly Rohrbach, model id: 38644540, total: 205728, percent: 35.69 Robyn Lawley, model id: 38644541, total: 18333, percent: 3.18 Rose Bertram, model id: 38644542, total: 78652, percent: 13.65 Solveig, model id: 38644543, total: 40907, percent: 7.1 Kelly "won" with ~ 245'000 a few hours later, her numbers were increasing by 50-100 votes / second :D

I still can't understand what's the point in making this random Kelly Rohrwhatever win. I get they needed a fresh face to promote the "next Kate Upton" bullsh*t, so Erin was out from the beginning (sigh), but Rose or even Hailey were much better suited for that role. Well, let's congratulate the winner: :D

So true, do they really think tech guys can't read a simple ajax response to a script (which is called, by the way, response.php) ? IT guys sure love computers, but we like models better, much better I'm sad that only a few people is complaining to SI Swimsuit's Facebook and Twitter accounts, we should make a fuss about it. If they want to fix a contest, they should do it better and HIDE the frigging evidence, that's rule number one. Unless they think we're a bunch of idiots.

ROTY has been rigged as usual. "Someone" (staff?) deleted 70'000 votes to Erin a few hours ago, so that Kelly could win. Unfortunately, Erin was slowly filling the gap, again, but then a Kelly-megavote (50/100 votes per second) script came to the rescue. In about half an hour, the gap increased from 8k to over 40k, which is nearly impossible without "external" intervention. They're so lame they actually return the full vote count back to the user in the ajax response, you just need to open firebug or the developer console to see that.
