the mailchimp link was posted on Jeremy's blog, which means Jeremy himself shared the sign up link the most therefor he should be banned from buying this print.

Hey, look at that, nicecollector's right. Looks like it's not the blog link, but the email itself that's tracked. That's kinda cool, in a Big Brother NSA sorta way. Or at least it is if it increases my chances by weeding out PBs.

I use mailchimp for many many clients and I know one can add a tracking code to track clicks... My point was that jeremy made the link public on his site making trying to track down multiple entries through the email link kind of pointless. I can click on the link in the email 10 times but that doesn't mean anything. Unless they added some kind of conversion tracking then click counting doesn't really mean anything in regards to the lottery.
