i'd be wary of doing this if i were you. pg seems to frown on using the voting system for anything other than its intended purpose. probably because there is a lot more going on than meets the eye. for example, he has said in the past that this site contains code to detect voting rings. i've read things that suggest it's even more complicated than that, but he seems to prefer secrecy about how it all works, so i'll keep my speculations to myself. a couple of months ago, another news.yc user invited people to downvote a bunch of his comments. it turned into a bit of an argument with some people, and he got banned for it. he asked to be let back in and pg granted his request, but it still seems like a place you don't want to go.
