You know... to fake a vote in this manner (have your collision be not meaningless junk but a desired value), you would need a pretty amazing supercomputer. I don't think most Agorans have those to play with. We could use some huge hash like Tiger; the problem with that is that there are few client-side implementations of it that I know of.
