I would be surprised if most of what was said wasn't true, however I did notice one bit that's wrong...

quote:

- Why are all of Connected DJ’s roster always in the Top 50, Gareth Emery, Lange, Andy Moore, Thrillseekers?

Umm, does anybody remember when we voted Mikey in how he was placed above the Thrillseekers and he was only at 110? Yeah, about that...

http://djmag.com/index.php?op=top10...page3&year=2005

They were placed at 121. And holy shit! Gareth Emery is 132! Lange at 145!

Seriously, as much as I hate to sound like I'm kinda-sorta defending DJ Mag, if you're going to post something like that then at the very least, please be accurate.

Edit: Lange and the Thrillseekers aren't in the top 50 for 2007, either.

If you are using this list as a way to select and enjoy DJs, then you probably deserve to have a little cash stripped from your wallet. It's a friggin' high school prom king and queen popularity contest!

Well infected mushroom was defenitly fake

I think high school popularity contests have a little more credibility thank you. At least there bots are not involved.

Yes. No shit it's probably fake.

I'm tempted to say "who cares", but the poll is so influential I guess something should be done about it. Third party auditing does sound like a good idea. I mean, the rigged poll could be one of the reasons why Trance seems so stagnant, always giving the votes to the highest bidders/cheaters while decent honest up-coming DJs don't get the recognition they deserve.

you mean the results might not be valid? i might be listening to DJs that are not really popular at all? oh noes

what I can't believe is that anyone puts any stock in the results of that poll anyway

How about "who intelligent cares"
