GAME CHANGE: Voting Rewards Started by: Squishy on Jan 27, '17 01:33

We have modified how the rewards are distributed for Voting.  It now looks at your record for the past 5 days and gives you your vote honesty rating + 15% of the reward.

 

For Example:

Jan 26, 23:36:39    You were paid $5,750 for your vote. This is 115% of normal rewards because your vote honesty rating is great in the last 5 days.

(This is someone who had 100% vote rating)

Jan 26, 22:41:44    You were paid $3,350 for your vote. This is 67% of normal rewards because your vote honesty rating is low in the last 5 days.

(This is someone who had a 52% vote rating)

Good news is, this only tracks the last 5 days, so if your score is very low its very easy to bring it back up.

We hope this will motivate those who don't bother with the captchas to earn them and their CL more money.  If this does not have the effect that we hope, we will also change the insta petties and insta felonies to fractions too.

Cheers!

love rewarding vote honesty, how does it work for people under 5 days old?

Report Post Tip

This is pretty neat. I hope it works as you want it to. :)

Report Post Tip

It looks back at a maximum of 5 days, if they are only 3 days old, then it only looks back 3 days, if they are 1 day old, it looks back 1 day, it just simply ignores anything older than 5 days.

Great addition but I think there are some kinks in the system that may need to be worked out

 

Jan 27, 10:28:48    You were paid $2,450 for your vote. This is 98% of normal rewards because your CAPTCHA completion rate less than 100% in the last 5 days. To earn more, simply complete the CAPTCHAs on the vote sites.

Glancing at the voting page it looks like figures are being rounded off to the 5's (so 98% would display as 100%), where this is using the specific numbers.

Given that the numbers will show a more detailed breakdown it's probably worth removing the rounding from the voting page. I'd guess that was there to avoid reverse engineering which voting sites were giving detailed analytics, but I can't imagine voter frauders being that detailed so a negligible impact I'd guess in the long run.

Woops Wacktard. I see the issue there now.

It isn't applying the bonus at all (not the 2% discrepancy I saw at first glance).

 

Jan 27, 08:32:32 You were paid $2,260 for your vote. This is 113% of normal rewards because your vote honesty rating is great in the last 5 days.

 

That one looks to be in the same scenario you hit, yet handled it perfectly with the 15% bonus. Guess it isn't quite consistent on it yet. 

Report Post Tip

I tend to open all the voting sites in one go, so I have 10 tabs open and then I'll do them all together rather than clicking in to each one, one at a time.

I've noticed this hurts the reward rate and even though my honesty is 100% from 450+ votes on my crew page, I am getting messages saying it is 99-95%.

Is there a way for this to be resolved?

Report Post Tip

From IRC earlier:

It looks like this was the same issue that was impacting on Wacktard and a number of others, Lucius.

A delay of 30 minutes has been introduced - so the honesty rating will consider votes from 5 days ago up until 30 minutes ago, which should fix the issues with multiple tabs being opened at the one time. Shout if it's still throwing up any anomalies the next time you do a round of voting.

Excellent addition

@TsuDhoNimh,

Thanks, I hadn't gotten around to explaining this :)

Sweet new progress done my man... :)

My honesty is 100% but I've seen my vote rewards drop from 115% to 99% over the past few days. I'm not aware of missing any votes though. There are times I vote on my phone and times I vote on my laptop. Don't know if that makes any difference. If I'm on my phone there's a chance that my wifi get super slow once in a while or switches networks/routers.

Yeh Iv noticed mine keeps lowering. I knew I missed one or two due to a glitch so it went down a little but I was on 115% I believe at one point! I even got over 100k for one vote! But lately it's been dropping to 99% so I raised it back up to 103% but it still keeps going up and down even when I'm voting perfectly it's frustrating now cos I don't know the cause of it. Before it was sites glitching out and sending me to a new page so I couldn't vote it. But now I don't know
Report Post Tip

I too have gone from 115% to 101% over the last few days. I have even managed to do pretty much a good chunk 6+ of them this morning which were giving me 102% reward. Then a few hours later I had another set to complete 6+ again and this time my reward was 101%. I know for a fact that all votes went through perfectly fine.. both sets!

Report Post Tip

Another that suffered a large drop from 115% to 106%.

I know Ultrawebgames was throwing the (relatively common at this stage) raw PHP error page again yesterday... but seems a significant drop for a single page failing to load properly.

No idea how the various vote sites could be weighted. Said I'd mention it in case it's relevant. 

Report Post Tip
Unfortunately there is one site that keeps freezing for me. One where u click to reveal the answer. So I know that one keeps dragging me down unfortunately again now! Think I'll have to block it soon if it carries on! but 1 site shouldn't drop me from 115 to 98% and as mention above it drops so suddenly even when on a good streak!
Report Post Tip

After spending time voting exclusively from my home connection on my laptop and then a day or two on my phone using public wifi hot spots I am noticing that when I vote from my phone my percentage goes down yet my honesty does not? Am I the only one experiencing this?

Report Post Tip

One question:

 

Does the honesty now reset after 5 days, or does it stay the same?

Report Post Tip

The voting % in your personals that is used to determine how much you get for votes is based on your last 5 days only.
