As I am on the "users" end of this competition I thought I would submit my opinion,
I think that what these guys did was legal, but unfair for everyone else. This is a quite a small forum but its also one of the most active so when a competition like this comes along you wouldn't have thought anyone would need "advertise" for more votes.
Anyway its all just a sticky situation and I think kojacker has the right idea

Here's another possible solution. Let's say we are in a situation where maemo mod team or unwilling or just unable to help remove anonymity or ip checks. Then I would propose we run the poll again, but this time we'll not make it private - everyone will be able to see who voted for who - and we'll make it clear that only accounts created before yesterdays closing date plus have a minimum of 5 votes will be counted in the final tally.
So thats my vote lets redo the poll, its the only way for everyone to be happy.

Edit: I also forgot to say congrats to the winners and well done to anyone else who entered, and as a first competition I think it went quite well and you should all be proud no-matter what the result
