Guild Market Community Vote

[BB_Nanuq]

Dear Settlers,

Once again, the worldwide Community of The Settlers Online decides which items will be included in the next Guild Market update.
A special survey will start soon, the details of which can be found below.

The offers in the Guild Market are changed from time to time. The worldwide community of The Settlers Online will choose NINE items that will be included in the next update of the Guild Market category. It is up to the entire worldwide community to decide which items will be included in the offer. More details can be found below.

Voting facts

• Start: Friday, 09th December, ~15:30-16:30 CET
• End: Sunday, 18th December, ~23:59 CET
• Who? All players from all language versions can vote once on their instance.
• Where? Use the website login. After some time a pop-up will show up on our community/news site.
• How? In the survey you select ONE item from the first question and up to EIGHT items from the second question
• Abstention: We added two options "none of these items" if you would like to choose none of the items offered.
• Result calculation:
  The Votes of all language versions (instances) will be summed up. 1 player can vote for up to NINE items in total: 1 item from the first question and up to 8 items from the second question. The item with the most votes from the first question and eight items with the most votes from the second question win.
• Result announcement:
  The results of the voting will be published in January 2017.

There are a couple of reasons why the results are not presented instantly after the survey ends. The extended time is needed to make sure there will be neither double votes nor cheating attempts via multi-accounts. Afterward, we are to sum up the votes from all language versions and discuss with the Development Team when the changes will be live.

All items that are currently available in the Guild Market will be changed.

Nine of the items mentioned below will be selected by the entire worldwide Community through the vote.
During the vote, each player will be able to select one item from the first question and one to eight items from the second question.
