Contest voting

Ok, I feel like a goof for asking this, but what is the mechanism by which one votes for an entry in the pie contest? (No, I don't mean how do I vote for my own. *grin*) But there are some groovy recipes that have been entered. I've rated a few, and commented on one or two, but I don't see a clickable button or link to vote for a specific entry, like there is for the book contest. I'm sure I'm just missing it, could someone tell me where it is? Thanks. :)

It's not a bug, voting is purposely disabled so that some instructables don't have two weeks more of voting time. The book contest is much longer term, so voting is already available.

Hmm..

The big button that says "Pie Contest" is back, but there are no vote buttons, but mentions votes...

The Book Contest has got vote buttons...

Conclusion: somebody broke something, and this time it wasn't me!

LOL - I don't break code, I just manage to upset the system with odd titles. I've added my comment to your bug report.

Well, in the mean time there is this instructable on FOOD (so this is not out of context) in the New Sport contest that needs help It is the new form of Cheese Racing presented there, and it has a voting button

I believe the vote buttons should appear once we can no longer enter instructables. Because it's a speed contest, they want everyone to have the same amount of time to accumulate votes.

Ah, but it is a SPEED contest, so shouldn't there be some incentive for being SPEEDY!!! Of course, perhaps the incentive was having delicious, mouthwatering pie.....*licks lips and rubs tummy*........

You're not the only one who can't find the button, I haven't seen it either. Nor in the Invent - a - Sport contest either...
