Where exactly in the history of Voting does the Person Voting for themselves does not count??


/baffled


We have 20 citizens (inlcuding me) as Mayor and yet I only get 1900 exp because someone at Sony decided my Vote for myself does not count??


What kind of backward logic is that??


Plinka get on this please


This is stupid is as stupid does...

Your vote counts as far as the election goes, you just don't get experience for it. Sorry, we all discovered that yesterday the same as you.

It makes sense to me that you shouldn't get experience for casting a vote for yourself. You still get the vote of course, but you have to be a true politician to have others vote for you and thus deserve the experience.


The only thing I don't agree with is that players who are never on the server ("ghost players" traded to up city size) still give experience to the incumbant. This should be changed!

The mayors vote does count toward electing mayor, but only other peoples votes ( not yourself ) counts toward XP. This is as it should be.
