If you haven't already noticed voting ranks are now operational. Your rank is determined by your TOTAL voting points (BLAMS+PROTECTIONS). As you move up in rank you will gain a percent bonus to your existing voting power! We are keeping the higher ranks secret until someone gets to them. More cool things on thew way!

I think this is Great! My voting today alone went from 8.83 to 9.54 because of this Rating System!

Thanks for voting, NemesisM66!
Your experience points gave you a voting power of 8.83 votes. Your blam and protection points gave you an additional 8% of your experience power, meaning that your total vote power was worth 9.54 votes!

The more experience points you have combined with BLAM and PROTECTION points, the more your vote is worth!

This is Awesome! I love it.

YEAH! Rock on, Wade!

So will we get more experience in another way than just voting on 5 movies everyday?

So what are all these ranks anyway?

Response to Voting ranks now up! 2002-10-20 20:22:32


Is this how it works?
0-99 points is civilian
100-199 points is saftey patrol
200-299 points is security guard
and so on?

Your gonna keep more from us!!! Might as well if there gonna be cool. By the way I'm wanna make a flash about this whole NG problem but I don't know how to get a picture of the portal. Can you tell me? It wont be nothing bad but its gonna be funny and hopefully the NGer's at the portal wont eat it alive.

Pretty much, although the higher you get, the more points you'll need to go up a rank. Just like an RPG game. :) So you go up quicker at first, slower at the end. With each rank you go up 2%, but at the end you go up a little more like 5% for the last 3 ranks.

Hey, I was thinkin, since Movies and Games are getting higher scores then usual, shouldn't you raise the bar to get a colorcoded title on the portal? And maybe they should lose color after 2 days or something, since none of the movies/games stand out anymore. Just a thought. . .

Question: Are percent ranks based on simply achiving a certain threshhold of points (like exp levels 1-9), or is it based on all NG users (like exp levels 10-30). Or is it a combonation of the two, like the entire exp level system now? Thank you.

Response to Voting ranks now up! 2002-10-20 22:58:09


These ranks are awesome. A few questions thoough: first, if you were to vote a 5 on a movie, but it didnt reach 100 votes till the next day, would you get the point or would you have to vote again? or would you get two points for two votes? Also, are you going to make a user ranks board (like there is for experience points) for blam/protection points?

It happened to me too. I think it was a mishap that citizens had 2% extra voting power. That's probably reserved for the next rank up.
