I've been busy this week adding some features to my program. From now on,
when you have voted for a game more than 26 times, you will receive a
warning. It tells you that your votes for this game will not be used
anymore. (This rule has been introduced several months ago, but only now
it is possible to give you feedback about it.) You may want to continue
voting for your game, because the votes are still stored and used for the
other lists (Top 50, Top 5, etc.) You can then add a #nowarning flag in
the body of your message, to tell my program that you don't want to
receive another warning. Otherwise you will be warned every time you vote
for this game again.
There is another flag for people who've asked if it is possible to vote
and not to receive the list. Well, now it is. Just add a #nolist flag in
your message. You will then be excluded from the mailing list. But your
votes will still be used. You will however still receive a call for new
votes when your 4 weeks have expired. If you don't want to receive this
call, you can add #nocall in your message.
Add #nowarning if you don't want to be warned about the 26 weeks limit.
Add #nolist if you don't want to receive the Top 100 list.
Add #nocall if you don't want to be called for new votes after 4 weeks.
And please, try to type them correctly, because #nomessage, #nowarn and
other variations will not work.
Hey Jay (Wilbur), have a look at the difference between the number of
points of Doom and U.F.O./X-Com. Oops :)
