Just for the general sense of friendliness, we probably shouldn't bash on other muds. It gives our community a bad/elitist/ arrogant appearance.

Don't forget to vote today!

Agreed.  I don't think that is a good thing for us to do.  If referring to a game that we're in friendly competition with on voting, I only refer to their spot and what we have to do to attain our position.  It is a little disheartening to see that for the past two months, players have chosen to bash the MUDs we have to compete with, and I'd like to see that stop.  Each to their own--there's no reason to bash people for having different interests or standards for what they enjoy, nor is there a reason to bash other games.

Ah, yeah, once you put it that way I feel like a shit. Surely these games have some great things going for them if they're being voted for often. Discworld mud had me hooked for a few months and I know there were things I enjoyed about it, I just lost motivation somewhere along the way and found something I liked better.

Discworld is gaining on us even more... vote!

Update on margins and where we are:

Current new accounts:  121

Voting history for comparison:
February -- ended the month at 1250, 5th place
March -- 11 days in, working on widening the gap between #2 and #3, but we were #2.  End of the month:  2037 votes over 31 days (approximately 66 votes per day)
April -- 1000 votes by April 11, competing heavily for the first week for #2.  End of the month:  2320 votes over 31 days (approximately 74 votes per day)
May -- Took over two weeks to maintain a solid enough lead to keep #2.  End of the month:  we broke 2000
June -- in the second week, still working on trying to establish enough of a lead to keep #2. 

What's different?  Not too much, but we haven't been voting as much as we have in the past 3 months (at the beginning we are usually seeing about 100 votes per day, we are doing about 68 votes per day right now).  I mentioned that those first two weeks are pivotal.  That's very true!  Come on out and vote!

TL; DR:  vote!

We were doing better last night, but now we're back to being ahead by just under 40 votes.



Vote time!

Don't give up!
I'm taking an indeterminate break from Armageddon for the foreseeable future and thereby am not available for mudsex.

Only five votes behind number 2. So, uh, give the pretty blue button a click and see where it takes you.

We're less than 10 votes behind...it would be easy to catch up if people voted regularly.

Is this because the GDB moved to a new url?

Well, the voting buttons that used to be at the top of the page did disappear from the layout I use after the switch.

What layouts are missing vote buttons, I'll make sure they are there.
