Thanks, Mypi. Good luck to you as well!

Is it a shame, or the beautifulness of our game, where all the players are on a common ground and skills only (usually /sad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":sad:" border="0" alt="sad.gif" />) make the difference? I would hate to see an ingame reflection of votes.

But if Pook sent to all the posters after this post a free Lima... /wub.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":iluv:" border="0" alt="wub.gif" />

You know, after reading Mypi's post, I think that if we really want more publicity for Alleg (do we?), instead of voting at a site with a pretty stupid voting system, maybe we should do something like 'in-game banner exchange'.

We could look for similar games (that is, those with players who might be interested in Alleg and vice versa) and come to an agreement with them, that they make some advertisement for Allegiance in-game, while we do some advertising for them. I have no idea what it is (sorry, Mypi), but let's assume Project Rockstar is one of those. They could show that flashing icon thing with Alleg for a month, while we retexture an IC base with the Project Rockstar logo and URL. Of course it would have to be somehow fair, e.g. the IC bases aren't there in every game.

That would actually be a lot better than voting at a site that pretty much everyone just visits to vote for their game (with some exceptions).

(And no, I'm not talking about forum banner exchange or something, because I don't think that will work. Forum advertisement are just ignored.)

Uuuuh, hello!? The point of voting is getting more people interested in Alleg, and not some kind of payment. That's the return.

Nice idea, Cort. But that'd overwrite all the high resolution mods and that also means "useless" autoupdates that will eventually piss people off.

A mention in the MOTD, just before the core list, would be more effective IMHO.

PS: Project Rockstar is about, well duh, rockstars and rock bands managing.

I guess I'm a bit paranoid. /tongue.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":P" border="0" alt="tongue.gif" /> Welcome to Allegiance Mypi /smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" /> Have a try at our game /wink.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=";)" border="0" alt="wink.gif" />

We could start throwing the "They started it!!!" arguement, but its worthless doing that all over again. We're a small community - our votes will be quite low.

Just make sure we stay in top 2 or 3 (actually top 5 gives us a bit of free publicity. That is goal here.

Dominion appears to have lost interest voting another month, so I'm voting Allegiance now.
