When Taiwan Film and TV Festival held its "Top 10 Taiwan Idols Poll Voting", rumors went that on October 22, fans who voted for their choices literally "moved their hands and feet" to produce votes. In just 3 days, 5566 member Sam Wang climbed up to Number 1 with 127,000 votes. Tony Sun and Wang Ru Feng also broke into the Top 10 list. As lead comers F4 and Fahrenheit fans fired their votes on-line, and CTS found out later that the earlier group of fans are "Poll Voting hacker fans" and changed the rules yesterday noon. As a result, Jerry Yan re-enters as the Top 1.

The poll voting for "Top 10 Taiwan Idols" just started last Friday and directed fans to vote at it's website at www.ttff.com.tw/idol/10idol.htm . Yesterday morning, Sam Wang and Jiro Wang both exceeded the 120,000 vote mark to land in the Rank 1 and Rank 2 places.This has lowered Jerry Yan's 80.000 votes to Rank 3 but in the afternoon, it dramatically climbed up as Top 1 and the Top 2 changed to "The Hospital" stars Jerry Yan and Janine Zhang. Sam Wang's high votes dropped to 80,000 votes and landed as Rank 3 while ex-Top 2 placer Jiro Wang's more than 100,000 votes was re-accounted and then landed to Rank 7.

Surprisingly, Mike He did not reach the top 10 list,loosing to Bang Bang Tang. Super famous Chun Wu only managed to get Rank 10, where he lost to others like Jimmy Lin, Tony Sun and Jiro Wang.

CTS indicated yesterday that they discovered that there were fans in the website who hacked their IDs to multiply their votes. As this voting was only limited to the Taiwanese, they clutch in as the "Poll Voting Hacker fans" group. leading CTS to change the rules for the voting, and bringing down the Top 1 Sam Wang to fall in the raking.
