Summer Lovin' contest controversy

[Slingshot7]

My story, "Life's a Peach l" got to 103 or 105 ratings, then dropped to 99. I realize it won't likely win, but how did id drop 4-6 ratings?

My goal was 100 and I was over that for a while before literotica decided to "fix" the numbers.

Looks pretty shady. Are the contests legit? Is the site legit?

This is extremely disappointing.

They call it "sweeps". It's not secret. If someone engages in a pattern of abusive voting, say by voting "1" on many contest entries one after another, their votes are "swept" away.

Extensively discussed in the Author Hangout, recently here: https://forum.literotica.com/threads/oh-you-guys-think-our-1-bombers-are-a-problem.1640726
