Well, DS is now at 3.92% and SWatH is at 5.59% and still predictably climbing at the same steady rate, so who knows when it will stop...
Of course, in the grand scheme of things so far as this round in the poll goes, it really doesn't matter what either percentage is because the only goal is to get into the top group of 16 - and considering the percentages of the films below them, I doubt there's any danger that either film won't do that. But I can't help but think that the resorting to using software is at least one person in the SWatH camp's way of signalling to DS fans that they're not about to let DS overtake their film for any real period of time. Even if DS manages to overtake SWatH again, the software can just be trotted out again and set to remedy the situation. And if that is their thinking, that completely destroys the notion of friendly competition...
