    Your inventory isn't full is it? That would prevent you getting the stars. I voted today and got the stars with no issue.

    How many times has this happened? As we just updated, there have been numerous downtimes for maintenance. If you vote while the server is offline, you will not receive the netherstars. This is my best guess as to what happened in your case.

    I have voted twice since the update. Going to try again today. When I voted since the update it was it was at different times of day. I suppose the server could have been down both times. I will see what happens today when I vote and keep you apprized.

    This just happened to me.
    I voted just before getting on the server.
    On all four sites, as it was around 8pm GMT that i could vote again on Vote 3,
    Login to not receive any stars and get a message saying its been a day since ive voted.
    Yet i click on the 3rd vote and it says ive voted.
    I dont think i typed my name wrong on all of the either as vote 4 i am currently in the top 10 users this month, all of which havent missed a day voting this month :p

    I just voted at 5:00 PDT, and then went right to the server. No Netherstars, and got the notice that it has been over 1 day since I last voted. All four sites. Everything I did was as normal.

    I cannot seem to reproduce this. Just tried voting with all four sites and got all four netherstars.

    Voting has been a bit buggy. I got Lucky and Mega Lucky from 1 vote.

    Vote 1 gave the normal message. Voted on vote 2 got the lucky and mega lucky messages and both rewards.

    I was also under the impression (I was informed by staff some time ago) that offline votes only stack for 7 days. Upon a player logging in after offline voting they were Luck x8, Ultra Lucky, and Very Lucky. Has the amount of times votes are saved been increased or was I misinformed from the beginning?

    This has happened to me in the past, as far as I've been told luck effects can stack.

    10 lucky+ votes from up to 35 votes (3x once per day, 1x every 12 hours = 5/day * 7 days) has a very low probability, but it's definitely not impossible.

    I think the rates got turned way up after spawn eggs got removed. Otherwise this seems so improbable it is essentially impossible to me.

    I just voted all four sites. Got messages that said I had voted. 12:03 PDT. Going to go to the server and see if they are there. If not, I am down 16 Netherstars, and would like to collect them.

    Just got them. All four from today. Whatever you did, you fixed it for me. Is there any way I can still get the 12 Nstars that I am missing?
