Time is the same poll that was hacked to allow Moot to win, and for the names of the top of the list to read MARBLE CAKE ALSO THE GAME.

You can't see the difference between ballot stuffing and vote rigging?

Ballot stuffing can be done by anyone with motivation.

Vote Rigging (e.g. - deleting votes) can only be done by the people running the system.

Depends on the meaning of the work hack. A clever prank? I think it counts.
