I'm asking for the Big Bang Awards voting system to be modified so that male covers can compete with female covers. There's only one active male character on the server I play on, and even though his cover is in the Big Bang Awards, it never appears on the ballots. Unless there is a different male cover. I contacted support about this some time ago, but nothing came of it. Because of this, he always finishes last, no matter how many films he makes in the previous week.

The number of movies to max out voting possibilities is 21. Anything over that makes no difference in the number of times it shows up for voting. Making less films than this lowers the number of times it shows up. Are you making 21 films a week? Also, people spend diamonds to refresh the votes until the film they want shows up, this can affect your placement.

You misunderstood me. The BBA contest mainly features female covers and only one male cover. Why is it that this male cover doesn't appear at all on the ballots, even though the creator of that cover made, let's say, 21 films in the week leading up to the BBA contest? I tested this on several servers, and the problem occurs on each of them.

Boobs win over Dudes almost all of the time.   But on another of my servers with about as many active players, 2 or 3 male covers are near the top.  It helps a lot of you have an active studio voting for your movies.

 

I'll try to analyze my ballots a bit and see if I notice your trend.

Let me try to explain this again. There are six covers competing in the current BBA contest. Among them, five are female covers. One is male. No matter how many times I vote, I will never get a male cover. The question is why. Why isn't this one male cover competing on the ballot with any of the female covers?

 

Refreshing with diamonds is pointless!

After way too many years of playing, I can't believe I never noticed that you only get Female-Female or Male-Male for the ballot choices.

I created characters on several English servers to test this. The problem occurred on UK3, UK4, UK5, and UK6. This week, you can only test it on UK6. See for yourself.

I will watch for this. If you truly feel it is the case, you will have to send in a support ticket. I'll watch my votes and keep note as well.

Testing it out, seems to be the case. I will submit a support ticket on it

Just got a vote mission with mixed sexes on US2. It seems the problem is solved. Let us know if there is anything else you find :)

I hope the problem will be solved this time.

I think it only works when I refresh the ballots with diamonds. I tested it yesterday, and that's exactly what happened. Today, I see that only three covers are participating in the BBA, and only two female covers are competing. After refreshing the ballot with diamonds, none of the covers appear. It's as if no covers were participating in the voting. I have the impression that the system can't match another cover to the male one.

Submit a support ticket. I sent one in on the original problem, which seemed to be fixed. I can only submit tickets on issues I personally see. I am sorry :(
