VOTE!

People should probably be certain they're sure of events before they start saying it's 'just this or that' that happened.

[lostinspace]

It's been forever since I voted, I remember us being top 10, where are we at now?

Push the vote button.  Find out quick!

Harshlands, who used to be in the top 30-40 is now #17 because a lot of ex Arm players are now playing it instead (I'm not playing either, just sayin')

I think that Reiloth is one of those players who get suddenly super excited about Arm then plays and posts a lot for a little while and then disappear again for months/years. I've seen that happen a lot lately with other ex vets, including me.

[Akaramu]

Really? Reiloth is like, super active every single time I play. I've never seen him not active. 

[Riev]

Also with great players like Taven leaving. Hard to keep up morale. Especially when they cite things like differences with staff as the reason they're leaving.

Yeah 24th on TMS. Nobody seems to be voting this month. Activity in game is still averaging the same 30ish players it has been for the past 6 months though.

Frankly the game needs some excitement around it. An HRPT or guild reform or something big. Going 5 years between every HRPT seems a little unambitious.

I do agree. "We're old, and we're one of the best! Come check us out!" isn't nearly as intriguing as "yearly world plots and great character interactions! Come write your story!".

I read a great MUD article the other day, and IRE was the ONLY thing they even deigned to talk about.

Have a link to the article?

First! (in March)

[JustAnotherGuy]

Get in there people!  Vote please!

[Esadal]

Still first on TMC, and ninth and rising on TMS!  Click that button!

[Feco]

Let's get a good start on TMS!

[Rathustra]

Have you ever wished you had THREE buttons to click?

[whitt]

OMG that UI...

[Feco]

I'm giving up on TMS.

Also, that website is terrible to look at.  Still voted!

[Malken]

Have you ever wished you had THREE buttons to click?

Yeah, sorry, but totally had to vote for 'Never Gonna Give You Up' mud.

[Malken]

I'm giving up on TMS.

Also, that website is terrible to look at.  Still voted!

I don't know how you do it but I feel like each time you announce that you voted, Armageddon goes down by 5 ranks on TMS.

New players might not know how to get the vote to count on The Mudconnector, so I'll splain:
1. Go to themudconnector.com and create an account, if you don't have one. If you do have one, log in.
2. Go to the Arm page that has the vote button, and click it. This *should* take you to the vote page, where you have to submit your actual vote.

3. If you have an account already and you click the vote button from Arm, and it takes you to the Mudconnector forum (or any Mudconnector page OTHER than the page where you have to submit your actual vote), then it means you are not logged in to the Mudconnector, and you need to do that first. So return to #1 and log in, then go to #2.

4. If it brings you to a "you have to log in" page, and you log in, you STILL have to return to the Arm page to click the vote button. Logging in does NOT submit your vote. It just logs you in.

Mudconnector does not acknowledge redirects from non-members so you have to already be logged in, for your vote to be submitted.

[Oryx]

Hook it up! Let's send out the invites and kick this party into high gear!

[Lizzie]

So, players. do you want the stafferinos beating you at "the ones who are among the first-ever to vote on this one and only unique day, this first day of July 2017, that will NEVER COME AGAIN?"

Or do you want to sit back, be lazy dole bludgers, and let the stafferinos win? Because they will you know. They have the power. UNLESS YOU GET THERE FIRST.

VOTE - and be among the first! It's the only thing you can do, if you want to win the prize!

[valeria]

I prefer to think that it's not a coincidence that since I returned and started voting every day, we've steadily gained ranks.  If this is what one person can do ... 

[Oryx]

Valeria, holding the flame.

[Lizzie]

Valeria is the dood.

[valeria]

Anyone can be the dood.  My doodage is not exclusive.  You just have to VOTE!

[valeria]

We're 9 votes down from second place.  Gather the dood posse.

[valeria]

Do not, my friends, become addicted to voting.  It will take hold of you, and you will resent its absence!
