Voting glitch

How come when I voted the maximum number of times yesterday, I only got to upload one image and then it reset my vote count? It's a bit misleading to say that you can upload 1 image per every 10 times (meaning I should have 2 uploads left). Then the next day, it doesn't allow you to upload another image because you didn't vote that exact same day because the vote counter got reset for some reason.

i didn't know that happened. and if it's true, that is really inconvenient, especially because i have been voting for a while just now so that tomorrow i can upload a bunch of stuff from another computer.

I assume it's just a bug and will be fixed soon. *Shrug*

I'm not saying there isn't a glitch, but remember that as well as the "ten votes per upload" restriction there's a "one upload per day" limit (two for cadre members). So even if you vote 30 times you can't upload three images in a day. One of the Senate members will probably explain it better than I can....

Yes, but I should still have two images left and have been able to upload something today because it was after the 24-hour restriction. This is what I am trying to say. There is a bug of some kind.

It is not really a bug, just the way that I decided to implement the 10 vote per image rule. I tonly looks at the last 24 hours when calculating the number of images you've uploaded and votes you've submitted. There are currently no "rollover votes."

So then why does it say we get three images to upload? That doesn't quite compute to me.

Not only that but after you reach the max number votes in the booth you can still vote on images from there page?

Capturing for infinity that which only lasts for a moment.

Because those are separate votes, and not counted in the c-index.

If those votes don't count, why bother even having the option there?

The voluntary votes may or may not be implemented into the c-index at a later stage.
