Poll Bug o.o

[Virtual Headache]

Well, I was just browsing a thread, when I came across this:

Seems like Celebi22 voted in this thread twice, but that can't be correct.
Has anybody got an idea what could be wrong there?
The poll I'm talking about can be found here: https://www.pokecommunity.com/poll.php?do=showresults&pollid=2803

Maybe he clicked it twice? o_o; That's the only thing I could think of.

I could delete a vote though, if it were really *that* big of an issue. But it isn't, it's just a (kinda random) poll~

My guess is that something happened where his connection to PC was quickly severed and reconnected, as in a momentary problem with his internet or a second-long database error. It's not out of the realm of possibility that if these type of things can cause double posts, multiple PMs, etc, that if timed correctly, they can cause a double vote.

But this is the first case I've ever seen of this, so I really have no true explanation.

I dunno... perhaps just a glitch.. did his 2nd vote actually count?

*counts* Yup, his second vote counted. I'm guessing this was something to do with his connection, a double vote was sent that vB neglected to check for duplication. That is - both votes arrived at the same time and was processed as one.
