I've voted a countless number of times. This just goes to show how addicted I am to this contest. As a message to all you people, it doesn't take much to cast your vote throughout the day. I don't spend much time on the website, it's as simple as 1-2-3. I think that if we all chip in we'll be able to prove others from different rock band forums just how dedicated we are as fans. Of course, I'm probably sounding like a nerd; however, if you truly support Queen this isn't a bad idea.
I've voted many times here at work (and will continue to do so today). But I will be off work for the next 4 days and won't have access to a computer. :o(
Here's hoping everyone else will vote furiously!

Forget about Kiss, what's with Metallica? It would appear that Metallica's fans are absolutely dedicated in supporting their idols. Both Metallica and Queen are always struggling for first place. And more often if not Metallica is in first place. Their fans are absolutely gung ho if you know what I mean. For example, one of the Metallica fans stated (in regards to competion) "Queen? Psh..." or something along those lines. I enjoy this competion, it's one of those moments in which fans from around the world are allowed to shine their colors and have some pride. Truly interesting.
As for any of you who give a damn with this competion, please continue to vote. Imagine Queen gaining the title of first place. Fans from around the world will know that we beat their favorite band. Yes, I'm aware this might be pointless, but it's still quite entertaining and fun.
Indeed! I have voted several times, however, have not done so as furiously as I ought. Going to endeavor to vote more tomorrow!

"Hey I just made Queen overtake Metallica by having a macro program fast multi click for hours on the vote button. Go Queen!"

Is this possible? And if so, has he/she spoiled the game and given Queen fans a bad name?
I'm so freaking tired of these lists. Does anyone really, honestly care???
If Queen is #1 I say, "Yeah, I knew that already." If Queen is #503 I say, "F'ing idiots." But really when you think about it all, does any list carry weight of any kind?? Like the 2nd post of this thread said, they voted 7 times for Queen. That means right there that the vote is completely invalid because of cheating, but even if they didn't cheat it's not like every human being on Earth voted.
My top bands of all time list goes Queen, Beatles, Zeppelin, and that with a nickel will get you jack shit.
The only lists of any real worth are statistical sales lists or awards like the Oscars where the voters are at least a select group of professionals within the area of music.
Furthermore, does it really at all matter? Look at the results as a whole. Queen can't outsell Elvis Presley, an early rock vocalist with a little bit of talent outside of his amazing vocal ability, and a song catalogue of simple tunes written by other people. Or just look at Queen. I'm not certain but I think in the USA their top selling single and biggest hit, which sadly is Another One Bites The Dust, and tell me if I am right in thinking that it didn't top Ice Ice Baby which is a non-intelligent rap mutation of a Queen bassline from Under Pressure. I don't think any Queen album has sold as many copies as the top 2 or 3 Mariah Carey albums. Is that information damning to Queen, or to our mongaloid culture?
But most of all is that Queen's music is for enjoying and to compare it with the rest is an urge sought out towards validating one's personal taste by the quantity of others who might feel similar love for it. Does that really enhance anyone's lives?
