Hi,


the vote-system is still not clear for me. 

Today I used the 3 stones and received 5 tokens. Its approx 1,67 tokens per stone. The only idea I have is that only one stone will give tokens. 

The Tokens I received are not useable for the stone. I only could spend the old (Titanium-White colored) ones. The new ones wioth the more or less yellow color are not visible for the stone.

Wy do I have to change the tokens into scrolls to be able to purchase stuff with that? To use the tokens dirtektly for the stuff saves time. Especially when I have to by each single scroll because there is no posibility to select an amount.


Hope my questions are clear, because my english is not the best.

Hi Tharmine. I still have some trouble with the vote system. In tha last 3 to 4 days I didn't receive tokens or scrolls but the timer started. Yesterday I received tokens but I cant find a place were I can change them into scrolls. The only idea I have at the moment is that I use a old client version. I didnt patch because the shard works with the old one I have installed.

Hi Evika,

Thank you for your questions and suggestions about the current Vote System.

Let's retrace what happened : we had an old vote system one or two weeks ago. I have been able to track some issues in the logs with that system and a player reported to me he was only getting 17 vote tokens maximum per day. Those were the old whity white tokens. It was obviously bugged, so I removed it.

So I put another vote system. It was being used in 2015 and felt more reliable. This is the system we currently use with the yellowish vote tokens.

I've posted several patch notes about this all, but here's an extract from the latest one : 

"

  • Vote stones will now give more vote tokens in general. The average for three stones should be around 6 per day.
  • Vote tokens will globally give more reward scrolls, as their conversion price was lowered (10:1 to 5:1).

"

So, two things about your questions : today you got 5 tokens. Tomorrow you may have 9. Another day, you may have just 3. It's a range : 3 - 9. Like most of the game is coded here, you may have noticed a lot of things depends on RNG. The old system with the white tokens had a random +10 bonus. Here with the new system, I just made it so each stone can deliver 1-3 vote tokens.

Now I don't understand your last question. You will have to detail more if you want a clear answer. I can only guess you still have tokens from the old system. I had put a conversion stone when the system changed. It stayed a couple days, then I removed it supposing evey one voting regularly had the opportuniy to change the white vote token to the yellowish ones. I suggest, if you still have old vote tokens, to just display them inside your house as a "memory bug" lol

Well, again, I don't get it well. You say you can do nothing with the vote tokens but turn them into "scrolls" ? Actually you have three options : gold, blue tokens and reward scrolls. They have different ratios : 2:1 for reward scrolls, 1:100 for blue tokens and 1:1000 for gold. That leaves options to people who vote to choose what they really want.

So yeah, I could just add things you can buy with vote tokens directly. Even make it exclusive to voters. I just wanted to make it so voting is optional, but a nice "daily bonus" for people who log in daily and take time to vote.

Hopefully I could answer your questions. And let me know if you still get "titanium white colored" tokens, because they are not supposed to be in-game anymore.

Thanks !

Hi Tharmine,

I can use the white tokens but not the yellow ones. So yesterday I turned the white tokens into scrolls but the yellow ones are invisble for the tokenstone. I tried it with tokens in the bank and backpack on my two accounts. only the white one I have left is visble for the stone.

Hi Evika ! :)
Hmmm, that is weird. Next time I see you online, I'll join you in Luna and we'll carry some tests together.
Just thinking : are you using the vendor stone that is on the right or on the left of the vote stones ? :-)

I use the one on the right site, this is tho only one I see. Left of it I see 3 votestones

Hmmmm, that may be when the crash happened today. When I tried to put back the old stone. I will join you in game and we will find a solution to your issue :)
