    Suggestion:
    Change the rewards from *SuperLucky*, *UltraLucky*, and the other lucky rewards you have a chance of getting from voting.

    Reason:
    Emeralds and diamonds are nice and all but are really pointless unless you're a newer player. I feel like the rewards could be similar to the ones at the Star Casino. Lotto tickets, money, crate kets, special block, etc.

    Any Other Information:
    This hasn't been changed in years, lets change it up!

    +1 I think the diamonds and emeralds are pretty pointless. The more emeralds I have, the more my nose droops down...

    I remember Andrew saying something like keeping the server going with duct tape. Which is why we dropped the eggs. I’m up for a change though so +1

    Also while you're at it, (if possible)
    Fix that third voting link or replace it with something else

    Only 2 of 4 votes worked for me today :/

    Oh and I’m a fan of re-adding some stuff to the event token thread, store’s kinda bare at the moment.

    Would be cool is lucky tiers have crate keys... Few and rare enough that they didn't cut into sales, but still there. Or even a specific lucky voting crate.

    This. The chance is a huge incentive, can only imagine the reaction scoring a key.

    +1 To this general suggestion, not saying to remove all the Emeralds and Diamonds or any of the actual stuff, just add more tiers and make them hard to get (low chance) since some players actually use the Emeralds or Diamonds (me and a few others trying to get Emerald/Diamond Collector Medal)

    +1 This could be another chance of ***DuperLucky*** or something like that.

    +1 I really think any sort of "super elusive" reward, namely like a key or crate, or even low-level star gear would be a huge incentive to vote again. After all voting still helps get our server public exposure, and with 70 or so players voting constantly (in search of that elusive prize) that could make a huge difference in the long run. Also come on, voting is so boring lmao.

    Does the voting actually help get server exposure, I read somehwere (from Andrew I think) that it only served as a way to get nstars

    Supposedly yes higher votes servers would get more exposure. That doesn’t always work when voting websites let bigger servers pay big bucks to always be at the top. Andrew paid into them at one point but wasn’t happy with the cost/result if I recall correctly

    I will absolutely change voting prizes and make them better.
    Just not at this time as voting literally does nothing for us, and to be honest, I wouldn't really care much if everyone just stopped voting.

    What we need is a few new game modes, and a nice $10,000 USD advertising campaign. Then when we invest in top spots on those voting websites, and I badly want votes to come in, I'll throw some awesome stuff into rewards. Right now voting does nothing, thus the suggestion boils down to "give me cool free stuff"

    I like the suggestion. And it will happen. But it'll be when I actually need votes. I don't at this time. Therefore have no reason to provide incentive.
