I think it just means the server's overloaded

I have another question and rather than starting another topic, I figured this would be a good place for it.  Is it the case on the board that you can vote multiple times in the polls?  Maybe you can vote once a day?

[CowbellGuy]

you can only vote once per IP address. Even if you delete the cookie and get the voting part of the poll, if your IP address has already been recorded, the vote won't count.

[jtwcornell91]

But you can apparently vote again if you have a different IP address and a different cookie jar, even if you're logged in.  (I notice this because I don't get to see poll results under those circumstances.)

[CowbellGuy]

Last I checked, all I said was 1 vote per IP address. Polls have nothing to do with login.
