Heads up - we’re about to drop into 4th place… :evil:

  1. BatMUD 6983

  2. MUME 6943

  3. SlothMUD III 5482

  4. Dark and Shattered Lands 5436

  5. Federation II 5306

..and 5th ain’t far behind..

Woah. Not cool.

erm.. we’re now 5th.. :evil:

well since all you addicts have nothing else to do.. you might as well vote for our dear old BUSTED mud :twisted:

the 2 muds that have overtaken us seem to have done it at a huge rate of knots, is there any feel for whether their votes are genuine players or some clever ip randomiser and script routine?

Indeed is there any way to know?

These questions were asked last year as well.. The TMC voting system used to have a threaded coded generator on the vote pages to verify single valid votes. Unfortunately since it required the user to read this blurred garbage with the upper & lower case letters and to enter along with your vote to validate it, most people decided it was too much of a hassle to bother. For which I was inclined to agree with. Back then most of the MUDS on TMC did not get many votes. Since then that generator was removed, and the traditional but yet vastly complicated (vote button) was returned to await the would be voters.

So to answer your question, yes it is quite possible that some have created scripts or web-bots to filter through and vote. But if memory serves correctly, the voting system still only identifies single visit IP’s. So multiple voting would be improbable.

** solution **

all the lazy sloth mudders need to press that ever elusive vote button.

EDIT: Other Mud Advertisement removed. Though it was subtle, we don’t do this on your boards, please don’t do it on ours.

thanks joat, we don’t care, can’t you see these bots just need something to whine about?

Also, FYI to thos who didn’t know, TMC no longer counts hompage or Telnet connections in the votes, just the direct votes from the link. I found this tidbit here:

[url:1zqo3zhm]http://www.mudconnect.com/rankings_info.html[/url:1zqo3zhm]

Now that pthievin has been disabled (albeit temporarily) why aren’t the supposed righteous people who threatened (and those who did) to leave voting more rigorously?

I know this isn’t an original opinion, others have said it before - but it’s probably not a good idea to start or stop voting voting based on changes and decisions made by the imms. If you vote, you should vote because you like sloth in general.

Gonna be a lot of folks around this weekend…take the 12 seconds.
