John Chow vs. Matt Coddington
written by John Chow
Daily Blog Tips has posted another Blogger Face-Off. This time, it’s Matt Coddington of Net Business Blog vs. The Root Of All Evil (me)!
Unlike the first Blogger Face-Off that pitted Darren Rowse against Shoemoney, this Blogger Face-Off against me and Matt has a voting system so you can decide who the winner is.
While the initial purpose of the Bloggers Face-Off was only to provide an interesting reading for everyone I recognize that a voting system could make things more funny. Secondly it will also make it possible to create second rounds where we match the winners of past challenges against each other! Since there was no voting session on the first edition both Darren and Jeremy will receive a free pass to the second round.
Amazingly enough, I am actually losing right now. But I think that’s because Matt posted it on his blog the instant he found out about it. I just found out now. Anyway, head on over there and vote for me please. Vote more than once if you have to (we are evil after all).

Promoting fraudulent voting!? You are one evil bastard. Luckily I have Shonuff on my side.
Well Matt, you know its a very close run thing, have to pull out all the stops…
Not to say the least, it is a battle between the fan-base of both camps!
i voted for you, you’re tieing now!
Well.. not anymore! I gave John 666 votes
With that, John is leading, and still is.
I broke the tie!
Go Matt!! Muhahaha.
Only cause John is an evil live lobster eater and NBB rocks.
lol right on! Mutiny!
so your pro-lobster? lol
I voted for you in both IE and FF - anything I can do to give back to Root Of All Evil!
I gave you 9 votes with IE + FF + Opera using original page, Anonymizer, and Proxify.
Idealy, I could give 666 votes but John knows really well that time = money!
Gosh … don’t you think John could win without multiple votes?
Let’s not bring back the vote result debates with dimpled chads and all of that …
LOL! Its a joke obviously *cough*
Yea I agree. I would support ‘uniques’ voting. John does not need multiple votes to win! Calling for fair play!
That would be hilarious! Just imagine the landslide we could generate!
Looks like John is way ahead now… he’s got 66% of the vote!
John, you are leading it now! But Matt is holdind it close hehe, I guess its the influence of his friend Sho-Nuff…
Voted
Matt has done well though, 1k in two months
That is right. Putting a relatively new blogger against the likes of John, that is sure some stiff competition going on.
ah the master vs the protege, interesting showdown
The vote is in! John’s ahead by 20 or so votes now.
The winner is clearly John.. this poll is obsolete!
it should be
john’s following will prevail
A fight to the finish?! Awesome!
Found a great new affiliate program John that launched today. Check out my post about AuctionAds.
I will vote for you, but promise you will tell me how’s my English.
As you always say, “you help me, I help you”
well, i think this two blogs are a bit different. the other guy blog, is more about making money online, with tips and tricks. Johnchow, can cover that part, but also entertain us with some posts, and have a more personal touch. The two blogs are excellent, and the two are worth to read and subscribe daily.
Both are worthly competitors and both have their own good points. It is hard to separate them, but I would go with a daily dose of both everyday. They are like meat and vegetables. I need both to survive.
I voted for you John … although I have to say, it was more about the helpful tips on your site, and less about the pure evil.
Hope you’re not too insulted
Thanks John!!
I’m so embarrassed, the post was messed in internet explorer because of a new polls plugin I was trying… amateur stuff!
I fell like I invited a boss to dinner, and had the house all messed up.
Tally another vote for our king of Evil!
Damn its close, just voted with FF, JC 137, MG 138, IE gets U even
138 each, they need to be checking MAC addresses with JC involved 
Well after my vote it’s 50%/50% with a marginal 2 vote advantage going to John. As Homer would say, “Don’t blame me, I voted for the blue M&M.”
HAHA Cool! This’ll be fun!
Im surprised at how close the votes are, I cast my vote for John Chow.
John Chow, you have my support as well! Look at how your fanbase is going to overturn the competitor!
Completed overtuning or not
the system is faulty, you can vote infinite times in the same person, you can stay a full day voting and cheating the system. This vote widget it’s not good and will not give the truth, let’s forget about it, or you can click click click 
If only fair-play exists. Like I said, John does not need multiple votes! Base on unique voting, that would have been the most pleasing outcome.
I was just jokin lyndon. Of course it doesn’t need that we click many times. But has a programmer that i’m, the first thing i try on a system like that is the duplicate vote, is a basic thing and a system like that should have a minimum protection against that. Here at johnchow we’re all very honest persons (i hope), but can you garantee that? Can you garantee that all matt readers don’t do that? Of course not, so the system ALLWAYS should prevent a thing like that.
A free alternative with protection could be the WP-Polls Widget. It’s a good plugin and can prevent such things.

Ah.. perhaps someone can direct this to Daily Blog Tips.
They are probably the ones in need of it. Besides, I can vouch upon my heart that I only voted, once.
Right now I am using a java script poll from polldaddy, some wp plugins mess your database, and even those plugins have workarounds if people want to cheat. I guess we need to rely on the honesty of people
Also the objective is fun for everyone, declaring a winner is just a way to increase the fun!
Definitely so. Yet, it is mandate to backup your database frequently as you play around with the tools available. Gosh, I just can’t keep my hands off them!
Voted for you of course
Although I really like Net Business Blog, especially the theme.
voted for you, now its 50/50
It is still a close fight though.
Just voted, and John’s behind at 46%, that’s 38 votes. I think extra evilness is warranted to boost the result.
John: Nice response to item 11 on that list, great way to gain votes!
I hope you both lose! How’s that for evil?

But I like you.
john is making a come back, he was down to 45% this morning, but its 48% percent now and closing the gap
I cant believe John is losing. I thought this would be a total demolition…
go john!
don’t lose!
Sorry to see you didn’t win this one John - I was rooting for you.
