Bill,

It helps the cheaters because some categories have a tiny number of voters and some have a lot. If a category has a small number of voters, cheating is an effective task. If there's a lot of votes, it's pointless. It also gives competitors an idea of what is going on throughout the month. Songs will rarely have the exact same number of votes at the same time because the system is playing catch up, PLUS, a song entered later isn't going to have as many battles, so the system strategically places them against certain songs to figure out a fair ranking with less votes.

The bottom line is that that's the way it is. I guess you'll have to decide if you can live with it or if the free service they offer isn't worth your time.
