Voting counts
I have this question to Indiblogger for a long time now. When I vote for certain blogs, everytime I click, the count increases by 2. But when I actually check the number of bloggers who voted, its either half the number of less than that. Why is this happening? Just curious to know.
In a way its a selfish question too, as my posts never have that problem, its too regular and the counts never cross more than 11
I was curious about the same question.Thanks for the nice explanation Renie.
Hey Lahari - the value of the vote depends on the IndiRank of the one who posted the blog post... from the IndiVine faqs:
I voted once, but the count increased by 2 points. Is that a bug? No, that's a feature of IndiVine. The IndiVine voting system is integrated with IndiRank, where a vote for a higher ranking blog gets more weightage. Let's take for example the blog gujiligalaba.blogspot.com having an IndiRank of 55. Every vote for posts from this blog will have a value of (1 + .55 = 1.55). Votes are rounded off for display. All fresh entries on IndiVine start at 0 votes, regardless of the IndiRank.
