Poll skip map box

[brookesxx]

Like the improve layout - mentioning not enough votes yet and clearer text.

Could I suggest also putting instructions e.g. press Page Up or Page Down to vote Yes/No somewhere. Or even just type !Vote Yes etc.

I don’t think all players know how to vote. So an extra line may help.

thanks for keeping the game alive.

Keybinds can be modified so its user setting. How to vote is displayed in a chat.

<RCAOW> Host: [RC] A poll has just started to add time limit for the current map. You have 30 seconds to vote "!yes" or "!no".

great improvement..

another suggestion, need 60% voting for poll to be counted, can we add the percentage of total votes (yes and no), so we can see how close we are to %60 voting?

I don't think it's a case of people don't know how to vote, it's hard to miss the poll box! But the 60% requirement to pass, and the lack of enforcement to vote has created a culture where people spam DO NOT VOTE in the chat feed when they want the result to be no.

Proposed system:

• For the first 20 seconds, the poll mechanism should remain as it is.
• But if after 20 seconds a player still hasn't cast a vote, force them to in the last 10 seconds.
• If a player ignores the forced vote, kick them.

We need to appreciate that some players can't immediately vote because they're in the middle of a fight, planting a beacon, rushing into a building or doing something that they need to prioritise. That's why immediately forcing a vote for everyone is a bad idea. However the above system, which only forces it on people who haven't voted after 20 seconds, ensures that players who are genuinely busy can finish what they're doing, and ensures that everyone votes so that a conclusive result is always achieved.
