Steadfast Steno Posted January 22, 2008 Report Posted January 22, 2008 First off, I think it might be handy ot have just a list of promoters in the forums, because then you know that the links will work. Also, could someone add the banner/buttons for ALL of the links that are provided in-game below the links? The links don't work for me personally, in IE or FF, so I just use the buttons/banners, I have a few links I'd post below the topic as well, maybe a new forum (level below Category, in my forum's language) for like "Spread the Word!" Or something to that effect. and then, maybe a Stat thing that would count the number of outgoing hits a day to each site, and incoming from each site, posted here (many of the sites do this FOR you, but it'd still be handy to view it here). Thanks for your time. News Update Everybody! Jonn has joined the ranks with me and he will now start to monitor 9 other sites as I continue to give updates on magicduel's standings on the regular 9. Thanks so much JONN!

morbo322 Posted February 1, 2008 Report Posted February 1, 2008 Everyone go to http://www.mpogd.com and vote, from what I have seen its best way for the game to get new players and help the game grow! You can vote once per a day. Also you can signup their & give a review to help as well but voting dose not need a signup

Steadfast Steno Posted February 2, 2008 Author Report Posted February 2, 2008 hey, can you add this post to New Ideeas--> Promoters? I'm compiling a list, just so it can all be in one place. mod.s should I just merge this guys topic?
Whane The Whip Posted February 8, 2008 Report Posted February 8, 2008 Speaking of promotions... Most of the sites we are encouraged to vote on are for MMORPG's or other PC games. Since this is a PBBG you may wish to have the players vote on sites that are strictly devoted to PBBG's too. As far as I know, there are only two: http://www.pbbgwarp.com/ http://www.topwebgames.com/ Relating to PBBG Warp, don't get turned off by the low numbers, the total number of votes is divided by a high number in order to keep the vote "score" lower and easier to rate. BTW, as far as accurately rating a game, I'm very much against the voting system because they do not portray the best games, but only the games with the most active voters. But for promoting a game they work well.

Steadfast Steno Posted February 21, 2008 Author Report Posted February 21, 2008 Okay, here is the list of voting sites that have MagicDuel added to. They may or may not be monitored, if you, personally, would like to assist me with this project by selecting a group of voting sites to monitor, please, pm me. This does not include all of the sites, that are on the website, or in-game. This is just the list as I know it and as I have personally contributed to it. XTremeTop100 *added a while ago, maybe 2/4?* MuOnline *added 2/6* (this one, I can't translate to find the vote link, but please, write and review anyway) Crimsongames200.com*added2/4* not on in-game or official list, but Manu knows about it mpog100.com (this takes you to stats, you'll have to vote yourself) MMORPG100.com*added 2/4* ApexWebGaming.com*submitted 2/8, added 2/16. my personal favorite. the site isn't very recent, but still * mpogd.com*added 1/4* to be continued tomorrow 2/20 EDIT BY CHEWETT: changed the html a bit where the url tag had a foreign entity inside it corrupting the code

Steadfast Steno Posted March 7, 2008 Author Report Posted March 7, 2008 6th week of monitoring! I couldn't do it, Jonn recorded, waiting on info.
smartalekrj Posted March 10, 2008 Report Posted March 10, 2008 hey i just went though the voting and was briefing though them and noticed that some of them you couldn't even find MD at all on them. Just a thought here but maybe you should take the ones that need more votes and rearrange them to the top of the list. And maybe make a special spot for the number one sites at the end. Label it Number 1 sites or something... I know some people dont like spending what is about 20 minutes now voting, so they are most likely to pick the top 5 or so on the board which is why i suggest taking the ones that need the votes and put them higher up. Another way to get people to vote(and i've seen this on other sites) is instead of having the same incentive for all bump up the one's you could use more votes for up a lil. Just an opinion. Please dont shoot me later lol And for incentives it could be like a 200 heat bonus or something. or like .04 instead of .02. Just some fruit for thought.
Steadfast Steno Posted March 10, 2008 Author Report Posted March 10, 2008 I think the phrase is "food for thought". I know, first off, I don't control the in-game stuff. I basically manage them, make sure that they stay active so they don't get deleted. And do ranking, which, by the way, the 7th week of monitoring is NOt missing, I have it, I just want to keep the week's info in order, so I'm waiting for Jonn to email me his info from the 6th week. And, also, that would require almost weekly, and/or biweekly updates to game, and honestly, sorry man. but I think I'd personally rather Mur make additions to the game and/or corrections than change the bonus or the order of the partners.
Steadfast Steno Posted March 16, 2008 Author Report Posted March 16, 2008 Shoot. We are missing it somehow, I'll have to find the hand-written records, hopefully, I haven't recycled that paper yet.

dst Posted August 1, 2009 Report Posted August 1, 2009 This was a great idea if you ask me. So what if someone from the advertisers will start doing this again? Also: we need someone we can report the broken links and other problems with the voting system. Currently, I, personally, have no idea who to report to. MRAlyon 1
Watcher Posted August 1, 2009 Report Posted August 1, 2009 Maybe you should look [url="http://magicduel.invisionzone.com/topic/4775-suspicious-link/page__view__findpost__p__38319__fromsearch__1"]here[/url]. Are you not the one who is always telling others that they should search the forums for questions that have already been answered?
dst Posted August 1, 2009 Report Posted August 1, 2009 Sorry to inform you but I know that topic. I am asking for an official announcement. Similar with the one that is already in place on the voting page(shall I post is here so you'll see what I mean?) So please stop looking for the thorn in the...porridge. Btw: next time when you'll just spam the topics I will delete the posts. I will not bother replying to you since replaying is a privilege that not all have. MRAlyon 1
smartalekrj Posted August 1, 2009 Report Posted August 1, 2009 yea this basically got stopped when steno disappeared. oh the good ole days. Would be fun to make a contest out of this somehow.
memory Posted August 1, 2009 Report Posted August 1, 2009 Report all broken links to me. lolmemory@yahoo.com or message me in the game... Thanks, memory (Cheif Advertiser) As far as a contest, hmm we might just have to come up with something.
