Not exactly - what matters is that you use the link on your player page. That link can be bookmarked and accessed from outside Cantr and will still give you credits. But browsing to the UGD Web site and voting on it will not give you credits, whether or not you are logged in to Cantr.

Note that Wrestling game is placed on the same server as Ulimate Games Directory. Still wonder why it is always on the first place? :D

Rusalka, read the posts of a forum before making one:

If you look at statistics, we have much more clicks on our link than Virtual Online Wrestling (VOW). Such a stupid game for weak people who think they're tough because they have a word-based wrestler who's strong.

And the fact that VOW work with Plit, and Online Games Site work with Plit is annoying.

You don't have to read all the posts to post your own.

To add to this, I'm doing some investigative work into the voting system they have.

To me it seems VERY suspicious, while it's their right to place their game first, it appears they have an auto+400 voting system, I've taken two samples so far and plan to take more soon.

Please guys, vote on the Online Games site (ultimate directory) at least 4 times a day if you can, two minimum. (it works, it's glitched)

You kind of do if you're posting the exact same thing again and again that's being discussed... I'm not saying you have to read every forum post, I'm saying, just the ones you're replying to.

Er who cares really?

People who visit these voting sites to find new games are going to check out the top 3 or 4 anyway. And if they don't like wrestling then Cantr will be the first port of call.

*nods* Yes, Hermit... I've been clicking on all the "Vote" links on the player page (including UDG). Browser type shouldn't matter, should it?

Doesn't matter really... as long the votes are getting through, the creds are an UNnecessary frosting on my Cantr Cake. :D

It increases by one, it seems, every so often.

And trust me, they don't have more members.

Here's a little table I drew up.


----------------------------------

3227 CANTR

463 = Difference

3690 VOW

----------------------------------


3232 CANTR

465 = Difference

3697 VOW

----------------------------------

3264 CANTR

466 = Difference

3730 VOW

----------------------------------

Equally possible is that both games are getting votes regularly, with the result that the gap grows slowly and gradually. The gap was much narrower in the first few days of voting.

If you look at the clicks out, I think it was on this site we get the credits from, you'll notice that Cantr has a higher number in there than any other game in top ten, including the wrestling game.

Seems to me you're doing pretty well on that site (as it happens, Plit Games (is that the same site or just practically-the-same site?) is the one that I found this game on - I noticed it just because it was exactly one vote below War of Empires at the time).

Looking at numerous other sites, Virtual Online Wrestling is ahead of Cantr II on every single one I've seen so far - and I'm used to seeing it as it is always above War of Empires as well.

In fact, Ultimate Directory seems to be one of the few where Cantr is above War of Empires, so this seems to be one of the sites Cantr is particularly good at getting on...

I don't doubt that VOW is linked with some of these sites, but I don't think that necessarily means they're fiddling the votes...

As for the OUTs, there's one site that always tells me I've already voted when I vote through Cantr. As fas as I'm aware, I haven't voted for it before, that day, nor even voted for a different site that day, so that does seem odd...

I think that one site does record your vote when you click, but when the page loads the click is already registered, so it's saying it so that you wouldn't try to click anything. Or so I assume.
