Is there a particular reason why coin #1 got a voting period almost a full day longer in the previous round - just enough for the last 2 votes to change the outcome (from 29-28 to 29-30)?
I mean none of those coins is mine, but if I were the owner of the Guatemala coin I'd be pretty pissed right now...

​Don't own it either, but I second the question. votes should only be counted up oto the deadline.
I collect anything: If it's Italian or Italian states i collect it even more!
It was level at the deadline so it was extended. https://en.numista.com/forum/topic68121.html

The last vote for 2 didn't count for some reason, as with it it was 24-25 on the English side. (And 29-31 overall) - Maybe it was past the deadline (I thought the deadlines were GMT but maybe they are french time?) or didn't matter anyway.

My app doesn't allow for double voting, that's why the last vote was discarded (the user atdavid voted two times).

I counted votes on both English and French sides and it was a draw, so I decided to prolong the voting. Please don't look for any conspiracy here - I would personally prefer another coin to go to the final but it's a matter of taste.

Firstly the app counts the votes, then I double check myself in case of any suspicions.​

​ I'm not looking for a conspiracy, just asking a reasonable question because one round was extended with the score seemingly not a draw (because of the double vote) - also the extension was not announced in this forum and I didn't see it.
This explanation is good, so fair enough ;)

​I'm so sorry about that!! I just saw the forum message about needing votes, didn't see that I had already done so when I scrolled through. Sincere apologies. Glad for a smart app!
