VOTE FOR FED TO HELP THE GAME KEEP GOING

by Hazed

Can it be autumn already (or fall, as the Americans call it)? Yes, it’s September and it won’t be long before the leaves start turning interesting colours before dropping from the trees. And then it’ll be winter, and time for Christmas!

Two months have passed since I last exhorted you to vote for Fed. That means the voting cycle has been reset again on The Mud Connector. I speak of the ranking of the most popular games on the internet, which the TMC compiles from the votes of the players.

We care about this list because keeping Fed high up the charts helps potential new players to find out about the game. We need new players to keep the game fresh; without them, it would stagnate.

This chart of popular games is compiled by players voting for their favorites. You can see the chart here. We need as many Fed players as possible to vote for us – not just once, but every day. Our aim is to be one of the top ten games.

Every two months, the votes are thrown away and we all start from scratch again – which happened at the start of May.

We need a good surge of votes to get us back into the top ten, and keep us there, so please vote. One more person voting every day adds 30 or 31 votes a month, and that makes all the difference. At the time of writing (Saturday morning) we are at number 12.

Vote for Fed by going to the voting site or going to the Fed2 front page and clicking the vote button. You can also use the TMC Voting option in the FedTerm front-end – you’ll find it in the Extras menu.
