Their respective husbands have to try and replicate the paintings that their wives did and it's then put to a public vote....
Couldn't sit through another tense voting round ...

Couldn't sit through another tense voting round ...
Paintbrushes at Dawn ..
After several days of being invested in this and voting every day. I've actually just looked at the paintings properly. Dawn's is definitely the best.
I can see why Marie only has 1%

I would guess they split the prize. It's probably not that serious, despite the poll attracting the type of voting shenanigans that would shame a banana republic.
Her friends have shared it to groups in South Africa, Australia and the USA yesterday. One of the groups is a professional working group with 5000+ members!
I shared it on my Linked in - generating alot of votes from colleagues past and present.

Neck and neck again!

Says Duffy is 2% ahead! How!?

She has no shame. Cheating bitch.
I signed onto a VPN last night to watch something on the BBC, it connected to an IP in London. Forgot to disconnect. Today I couldn't access Google as it said it had detected unusual bot activity. I assume it's a London-based Caftite who was voting for Dawn.
Need the bots working overtime until the vote closes. We cannot lose at this point!
She has started a second twitter account by the looks of things to spam for votes.
Seriously feck off. Where is that thug @Hectic with his bot army? There are skulls that need a-cracking.

What forum does Michelle's husband browse?
Given the level at which you are all cheating the system, it's actually incredible that Duffy is still up there. I'd love to know what she is at.
I hope someone snaps her mixing palette.
In the end it'll turn out that Hectic was voting for Duffy the whole time and the only reason we kept pace with her was the horde of newbies voting.
It's not cheating. I resent that. What we are doing is voting within what technology allows, you can't call that cheating when it's on the Internet.
If they didn't want us to vote within what technology allows they'd have sent out Ballot Boxes. No one has ever been using them properly.
I think Hectic is playing a game of emotional rollercoaster with Duffy keeping her elated time after time, then to eventually crush her dreams in the final hour….
Just voted on the work laptop which is using a VPN so that should be another legit vote. Still 2% at the time though.
I think Michelle is a better ambassador for the competition/brand and so they have a script to keep her ahead.
Just voted again on my regular IP and got a 'voted' at the end of the URL so I guess that worked.
If Duffy wins we know it's a hoax. I propose we storm the Féile an Phobail headquarters. IRISH PAINTING PATRIOTS ARE YOU WITH ME.
Anyone looking to squeeze in a few extra votes without going down the hectic route can do it via a mobile device.
Turn off your Wifi so that you're using your mobile data.
Use incognito mode so you won't have to clear any cookies etc in between votes.
After you vote you have to close your browser otherwise it 'remembers' you and then toggle airplane mode on and off to start a new mobile internet session.
You should then get the "voted" url each time so you can see whether it's a successful vote.
just look at the brass neck on this piece of shit. how can the competition allow one of its competitors to use technology to influence the outcome of the vote. really taints the whole thing. rest assured i have opened dialogue with mr. feile and informed him that duffy must be cheating like feck if dawn’s cheating isn’t putting her in to first place.
This is a small time/first time amateur art competition - I think Mrs Duffy has completely lost perspective.
It seems to be really really important to her - and if she does win its completely hollow. its certainly not about art or people judging it.
she did a decent pic but genuinely Dawns is good too but sure that doesnt matter now at all.
I have to thank you all for the hilarity of this thread - truly like the caf of old. wetting myself laughing at some of the posts.
I am supposed to vote Duffy, right?
I swear to god.

the lengths some people will go to, to try and win this. embarrassing.
I can't decide if I think he's playing both sides in this for fun, or if Duffy has actually become utterly deranged by the prospect of losing. Given Duffy's postings and Hectic just being Hectic, both seem equally plausible right now.

I've been voting every 20 secs or so for the last 2 or 3 hours. It's still running. She's doing some big time cheating.
Ps. Dawns is better. Roisins is better. And Michaels is better.
Duffy's - it is good - but can't understand the entity in it. Could be walking to the right or away from the viewer.
Worse still is the entity is urinating on the dog

I love that this vote means much more to half the caf than it does to Dawn herself
worst of all, the phallic radio mast in the background hinting at the erection the man has for his dog. if duffy painted the same scene 20 seconds later, she’d have the man forcefully tongue kissing the poor mutt.
I want a Trump like meltdown from Duffy when Dawn wins this
