I was wondering, do you guys prefer a toplist reset twice a month or prefer to keep it like it currently is (once a month)?
Please vote in the poll.

By twice a month do you mean, One reset at the start of the Month and another one halfway through the month?

Ikiliki

Oh, I forgot to mention that.
Yes, that's pretty much what I mean.
The month is quite long and it's hard to obtain a high rank as newcomer after +/- 15 days because some servers already have an amazingly high vote count.

Twice, so other people do have a chance at being on the top list.

I believe he prob means on the first, and like 15-17 some where around there.(Every 15 days or so) I actually like this idea, because then servers wont reach over like 20k votes.

I like that idea, It might also stop people coming on saying "zomgz corruptionx got liek 20k votez, dey r cheeting". I'd say give it a go, see how it works out. :)

Yeah, it'll also get rid of the OMG 20K VOTES THATS NOT POSSIBLE stories lelel.
I'm pretty sure most people will vote yes, and the owners of larger servers will vote once loll

I personally believe we should reset three times for four months out of the year, however in december when people are forced to be inside most we should reset for times a month. That leaves seven other months. I think that for three of them we should reset seven times total. Three of the others should be reset randomly at least four times throughout the three month period. The last one will be June which is my birth month so it's instantly God status so no resets at all.

Who agrees?

No, I disagree - There should be a fixed schedule when the rests are. Not, one month 2 resets, the other 5 the next 3 etc. However, I understand where you are coming from but it is just making things harder for major servers which bring in a lot of traffic. If our toplist is no longer popular because of 'random' resets then you loose that traffic the servers bring.

If anything, reset every week of december and keep the rest to a fixed schedual.

@op,

Twice a month a better, gives lower ranked servers a better chance at gaining more players; higher rank. Also isn't so bad that other toplists are prefered. ;)

RESETING RANDOMLY?
Sorry, but that is just the most stupidest-site-killing suggestion I've ever seen in my life, HAHAHAHAHAAHA, no offense to you, but just BHWHAHAHAHHA

Two resets a month sounds reasonable, cuts down on router cheating.

Twice, gives more chances.

Jess
November 13th, 2010, 18:43
twice a month, then it will give servers a chance to raise, like good servers that dont get enough votes, then cx wont be like 20k votes, hopefully only 10-15k, :D

Bo CX
November 13th, 2010, 20:17
Well, I guess it would help smaller servers that don't get that many votes, but it would also piss off bigger servers that get alot of votes.

I really like the Runelocus toplist, so I do my best to stay #1 on here every month but resetting every 15 days can get a bit annoying, 2 weeks ain't much.

I'd stick to monthly resets, you could always add a box to the toplist with: "re-organise votes based on the past 15 days", but it should be monthly by default.

Qlimax
November 13th, 2010, 21:18
Once, every toplist have once :)

2 times sounds decent.

the real deal
November 14th, 2010, 15:34
2recents would get annoying after while

some servers work there buts off to get votes, lets say they finally get 20 then a day later, they got 0...annnoying?

iTStorm
November 14th, 2010, 15:37
One time xD New servers will also lose their votes, so they won't get the top position at all.

If one server has 20k votes, and they have 20 votes, I don't think they'll get any attention.

Let's be bi-partisan here people,

Divine

True ._.". But tbh I don't think shit would change if you really think about it..

If a server is getting 10k votes in a month now, than they'll probably get around 5k votes if it's changed.
Like wise,
If a server is getting 20 votes in a month now, than they'll probably get around 10 votes if it's changed.

Nothing's gonna happen in reality lelelelelele.

But a small server could go all out to get on the first page even if for a little bit twice a month now instead of once a month.

Twice would suck for new Server developers.

Iki,

I totally think 2 votes every month would be a great idea. It will give all servers a chance to get on the first page.
Great Idea, I support.

Twice could be a bad thing if you think about it.
Small servers that want to get popular usually try SO HARD to get a few votes. If those votes get deleted when they just then earn them, then they won't get too many chances.

Yeah, but on the other hand, if the large servers have so many votes these small servers you're talking about will not even get noticed.

yea, hes right, what will happen to small server that will never get a chance to be famous.

But those large servers will just rise right back up.
I' all for the 2 resets, though.

Whether or not the #1 server has 20k votes with 1 reset a month or 100 votes for a non-popular server.

If you increase it to twice a month, the #1 server might have 10k votes, and non-popular will have 50. Either way, the popular server will always be enough ahead for the low ones to not be noticed.

If you increase the reset, the high servers will advertise more for people to vote before next reset.


HOWEVER, i voted for 2 resets

I honestly prefer 2 resets every month, I've seen servers on the day of a reset on the first page that I haven't even seen before, they were probably hiding on page 15 with 2 votes. After the reset, they somehow get maybe 3 votes, get on the first page, and will end up getting a lot more viewers and therefore having more players on the server.

It at least lets those little servers have a large boost.

I don't play servers but I agree with this one, lets be socialist here and let everyone have an equal chance! :p

November 29th, 2010, 04:35
Yes I agree on this, if the top servers are that popular they can shouldn't have any problems with have two resets per month.
