Okay, I applaud the attempt but this CSM 8 vote has been plagued with issues.
- First off, without logging into the eve client I can only find a link to the vote page if I go to the community page, find a link referencing the CSM 8 election, then clicking a link in that page. On the front page of Eve Online there should be a link.
In the forums under Eve information Portal there should be a Stickied link saying VOTE. And just to be complete a slickied link the CSM section on the forums saying VOTE.
- I click the link in the patcher, it kept me in the patcher and the voting didn't work at all for me. At least while I was in the patcher it kept my old votes. But it never worked. When I later switched to the browser, (after finding the link to the voting page) my old picks were lost.
- Time out issues voting. I have 30 plus candidates to read through. Yes I actually read them instead of being a useless twit and trying to use some script. Now that it had lost my previous votes I had to go back and re-read all of them. Honestly I was a little peeved at this point and only voted for 2/3 of them that I could remember by name after reading the first 10 or so again.
- On the page where you summarized each candidates platform, there should have been a method to highlight / select who you like and vote from there.
- Voting should be easy and foolproof. I am sorry this was not. But as I said, I applaud the effort to organize the information and attempt to stream line the process. Hopefully CSM 9 has this feature. This is a game, but one I care about. I will not spend days analyzing each candidate, but I will do my best to spend a few hours reading each platform and supporting those who appear to have the background and the games best interests. Please don't make waste this time.
Remember usually most people have less than 5 people to choose from when they vote. Damn in the states I get the impression it is 2. We have 30+
