    Concern about hairstyle voting rules

    * “Likes!” will only be counted for the last entry you vote on.

    This is a PSA to everyone about the voting. Be aware of the rule that only your LAST vote will be counted.

    A lot of people may not take note of this and will Like every hairstyle they want to vote for. The concern is that this gives an unfair advantage to hairstyles that come later in the list. People will Like what they want as they go along, but anything they Like on the last page will invalidate anything they voted for earlier.

    Valid concern?

    I did not see that, so the one I wanted and did first will not count.

    I'm fairly certain that rule is for the Scarf, not the actual voting

    Or is that only for winning the scarf? The way I read it, all your votes count towards deciding the winning hairstyle, but if your last vote was for the style with the most votes, you win the scarf. I could be wrong though.

    It does say "Vote for the entries you like the most", not the " entry ", implying more than one vote

    I'm pretty sure everyone participating in the voting (by, you know, voting with the "Like" button) is being entered in the scarf prize sweepstakes. The winners (140 of them) will be randomly chosen and not announced on the forum, they'll simply receive their prize through the in-game mail.

    Please note:
    "Players who “Like!” finalist entries during the voting period will be entered into a Sweepstakes, and we will be randomly selecting 140 players and awarding them with a Scarf of Wondrous Wit."

    However, the only vote that actually counts in terms of deciding a winning hairstyle is the last "Like" you submitted on a hairstyle.

    Please note:
    "* “Likes!” will only be counted for the last entry you vote on."

    On a sidenote.. cripes those male hairstyles suck.

    It's really unclear what they mean there! I wish a community rep could clarify what they mean. Are you able to vote for several, and the "last entry" means you only have one vote that counts towards the lottery-like reward, or is it that whichever you voted for the latest is the one that will count as your vote? That will make the numbers visible very skewed...

    Well, that plural COULD be your vote for male and female style, not several male or several female ones...

    if your last vote was for the style with the most votes, you win the scarf
    it would be weird to do that, because the votes might be oriented to the hairstyle with the most votes with the only intend to get a chance of winning the scarf, and not because the hairstyle looks nice.
