Not to be rude or anything, I find it quite unfair for this competition. If lets say this person is able to get 700 over friends to like it, and they kind of blindly like that photo, that's not fair isn't it? They vote because their friends ask to do so, and not voting on the person they think deserves to win.

Hi, thanks for the feedback.
You are right therefore we got 2 categories, one is base on highest LIKE (is a number game) you can ask anyone to LIKE your photo, so what you need to do is ask, share and exchange. Second is the most outstanding one will be selected by the judge to be the 9 Spot Icon winner without judging on the no of LIKE. Hope this clear your concern. Thanks
