Don't you think votes may be oriented by viewing the results before voting?

Hello everyone,

We've been looking into the latest G2G vote today, as suspected there was an issue with the display of the result for the UE biography. We don't know yet what was the cause of this and we're digging deeper into this.

We however have the vote counts in our Back-Office so we are able to check the real total results. We double checked all previous results as well just in case but there was no error prior to this vote.

First of all, we want to present our apologies to Zep' as he was displayed as the winner even though he did not receive the most votes.

In fact the true winner of the Biography Competition are :

- Zkyrd for the Cravers Bio (created by Llama_Guy)

- Ivan Gagarin for the United Empire Bio (created by Nosferatiel)

Congrats to both!

I'll be creating a new G2G vote before the end of the week.

PS: to answer the question on the vote display, it will be displayed after a vote to avoid being influenced by other members' choices. We're working on the feature and hope to have that implemented very soon.

Faction: Cravers

Hero Name : Hexaedric

Hero Biography ( max 400 characters ) :

Hexaedric got a serious blow on the head when he was born. His sister too. And their heads merged, Dust only knows how. From that initiatic experience, they now speak as one. Often rejected by other cravers, they always thought the skies would welcome them one day or another. They choose their name the day they flew from their planet : they always keep a silver die to help them take decision when they don't agree. But as time passes, they need it less often. As time passes they become more and more as one. And now they search why Dust try to communicate with them.

"We think we were born in Dust, but fact is we are born from Dust. Since we know, we need to yell it. The universe must know that only true revelation. We are linked."

Faction: Cravers

Name: Zkyrd

Biography:

Dust exposure before birth/creation gave this Craver a distinct "jack of all trades, master of none" nature; not extremely skilled in any pursuit, yet not unskilled in any. Such a nature also made it more disposed for intellectual pursuit than most Cravers. Due to its multitude of skills it sees the important red thread between the varying institutions of society, and it toils endlessly to bolster harmony between them, so as to further the Craver race as a whole.

Class: Administrator/Pilot (I presume the heroes can't be more than two classes?)

Image: A leaner torso than what is shown on the Craver concept art, and almost completely smooth
