Maybe a new voting system

Post by Faker » Sun Aug 11, 2013 12:15 am

I have a sibling which is really annoying because they also play Craftland and they vote too. When they vote I am not able to vote which sucks and is losing votes for Nidefawl. Now I am voting 2x as slow or more. It is saved by your ip to tell if you voted I think but maybe there's a better way like saving to the player.

Nide has no control over how minestatus tracks their voting.

if you really need to vote, try using a proxy, but i'm not sure if that's allowed, because it might be considered "cheating"

Minestatus has proxy detectors as far as I know.

Well, you can't use TOR, I know that from trying. I haven't tried using a proxy, but you can change your IP through your router. Though changing it every day might be rather cumbersome.

Luckily I come on before my sibling does and I can get first vote. But sometimes she ( Yes, its a she) gets annoyed because she wants votes for the voteshop too

I'd say the best thing that you could do is to take turns in voting.

But the thing is we're voting 2 times as slow, wasting lots of time.
