Hi Marin,

I didn't find anything in the game manual that says that you're not allowed to vote in the elections if your team is new. Might be to prevent cheating, but a user in Germany (34390) just told me that he isn't allowed to vote because "his team is not yet older than 4 weeks and therefore isn't allowed to participate in the election". I guess that's kind of unfair, even though I think that the rule was implemented to prevent cheating. But we're having a lot of problems getting people interested into the NT in Germany ... this definitely doesn't help a bit if a new guy cannot vote. I hope you'll reconsider or at least implement some text into the game manual.

It doesn't change the outcome of our election in germany because I guess we've just got one candidate but still, in my opinion he should be able to vote!

It is indeed due to vote cheating in the past.

I don't think this should be changed, but you are right it should be written somewhere in the rules.


Yes, I can agree with that. Even though the user pointed out that if you really would like to win an election due to cheating, you‘d just have to plan a bit more in advance in order to be able to vote. But it‘s true. Like this, someone would have to register and log in more than 4 weeks later again to vote. Not register, vote and be gone right away....

So conclusion: short paragraph in the rules and everything is fine with me
