Ok, it was nothing to do with that leap second, it was the test image
that Colin uploaded on Clipka's account to check that the upload was working
for him. He's fixed it so that it can't happen again. :)

Wouldn't be to fair, because then you can boost your competition standing by
simply not voting. Say for simplicity's sake that every vote would be 10-10-10,
and we had three contestants A, B and C. Both B and C vote, A doesn't (or his
vote is incomplete and therefore discounted). Makes:
A: 30 + 30 = 60 (from B and C)
B: 30 = 30 (from C)
C: 30 = 30 (from B)
Fair? Not really, I think (at least as long as the ranking is according to total
points instead of points per vote). So to discourage *not* voting, *voters* get
the advantage. Everyone can get it, by becoming active himself, instead of
relying on others to get active.
(OTOH, placing all "1-1-1" votes has quite a similar effect as not voting at
all...)

True, I was thinking more along the lines of I would like to see the actual
highest score. Now that I think of it I would like to see all of the scores with
comments, if any. I also don't think that it needs to be a secret vote, either.
