Do the voting also INGAME, when someone logs into the game, make him NOTICE he has to vote (vote for someone or abstain from voting). This way you will get a VERY high outcome. In the future this could be done by docking & voting in the station :P
And please, only 1 vote per account.
Yes, only one vote per account.
And your idea of a 'forced notice' about the elections is the strongest candidate now about how to draw the attention to the election.
Currently there are no plans to bring this in game but to have it on the My Account section. But that is the current implementation. Future implementation would ideally hold an in game system with stuff associated with it. But that is the future.
Having this out of game only will greatly reduce the number of voters. Most people wont even read the news/blogs that they are most passionate about. Because it involves reading, and leaving the EVE window. Many of my corp mates and friends won't even bother to read the blogs/news items that are linked to chat windows, cause its too much hassle. Even if its a super nerf that will stop them from playing, they refuse to read it/look at it. I believe most people will refuse to bother or care if it means they have to go out of game. That, and making it in game means that only active accounts can vote. I believe this must be made in game, not only on the website. I don't have a problem with it being both in game and on the website, but this cannot be website only.
Also, proxy votes should only be able to be given via in game controls, that way again, its only active accounts voting. I also feel there should be no visible counter for the proxy, I don't have a problem at with proxy votes. One nice thing about proxy votes means you can assign all your accounts votes to one account, so you don't have to vote 3-4 or more times. But the visible counter makes proxy votes a problem, simply getting rid of the visible counter, means you cannot be forced, since there will be no way to know.
My main point, is that you are rocking the forums, I haven't seen this kind of CCP response or interest in something other than PR stuff. Kudos to you for this idea, and great responses. I also like that you aren't just ignoring and sidestepping your opposition. Keep up the awesomeness!!
