If I may suggest, could it be possible to add to this how many times these people have voted?

Actually if I could suggest this. I was on a another server before coming to this one and there was a way that you could pull up the voting list to see where u were ranked throughout the month. I dont know if that would be possible here but it was very very helpful. Just a thought.

And congratulations to the April voting winners.

Case A - people don't know which place they are in untill the winners are announced:
People will vote as often as possible untill the end of the month in the hopes of being in a topspot.

Case B - people DO know which place they are in because they can see it on a list:
Players might give up on the race of that month if they see that others already have enough votes that they themselfes can't catch up to them. This would result in less incentive to vote and therefore create less votes for the server (there still is the regular reward for voting of course).

Now if you were the admin, what would you prefer? ;)
Besides, where would the fun in the competition be without the suspense.
Of course I have it easy to say all that, I can't even vote :P

Thank-you for voting, it's extremely helpful for the server which is why we like to give out prizes for it!

As slightly explained by AlbatrosX5 if you don't know how many votes people have been making/are making then you're more likely to vote to keep up with a chance of winning! As he explained it might get to a point where people would decide they've already won/are clearly going to win and may therefore stop voting; this isn't very beneficial to us. You should be voting to support to the server (and gain a chance to win a good prize) but the prize should just be a sideline. We therefore won't be announcing voting numbers any time soon.

I meant more like announcing the number of votes only at the end of the month, together with announcing the numbers. That way you won't have the risk of people giving up halfway through the month because they can't win, but I'm just curious at the end of the month when I see a winner's list like this just how much they've actually voted.

You should show us how many times that they voted afterwards. So we can see how many times we or they voted, it would help to see on average how many times someone voted on average. This could add to the point where people will vote more to beat the a high score or a player's previous voting record. I would like to see the results of who voted more, not how much they have now. Thanks!

As I explained in my previous reply knowing how many votes it takes to win might encourage you to stop voting once you reach that number as you can be reasonably sure that you are in the top 10. Similarly if you know you need X amount and for whatever reason you miss a few days you might be less likely to vote as you might think you won't win (looking at the numbers from previous months), when that might not be true. We won't be publishing numbers because of this, if you know how many it takes to win you might be less inclined to vote.

Just try and vote as often as you can and take the monthly rewards as a bonus prize, you can get 2500Nbz per vote anyway, which over a month can add up to a lot of money.

quick question, how are the ties broken?  Is it just a random draw between the top voters.  Since on any given month you can only vote 30/31 times (feb is the exception) I presume that if 10 people have voted the max amount their names are just randomly drawn.

If people are tied then we randomise those people who are on the same amount. So for example if you have 1 person on 30 they will be top and then 3 people on 29 we'd randomise the 3 people on 29 to get positions 2, 3 and 4; but would keep the person who was top in the first place.

We don't really  need to know the numbers of votes at all. Just vote everyday and earn on average 75k noobs a month.
