The Poll: Allows for up to two title selections. I set option to “Anonymize voter data” and allow VPN users.

My story

I started with Civilization 1 on Super Nintendo. Amazing game, worked well with gamepad optimized port, but loading times were abysmal in late game. Won all matches by domination. Later played Civilization 2 on Playstation 1. Won all matches by domination too. This time loading times were even worse, to a point I stopped playing because of this. My next game in series was much later when Civilization 5 came out on PC, then later Civilization 6. Both great games. Its the first time I won by other means than domination and the loading times were not an issue anymore. Just purchased and downloaded Civilization 4, which I will try out after posting this.

    One vote per IP.

    Only took two exit node refreshes to be able to answer XD

      Hmm. You only need to vote once, so one vote per IP should be not a problem. I don’t understand what the problem is. Last time I did a Poll, I excluded by accident the VPN users and nobody mentioned an issue by IP. Don’t tell me I fucked it up again. :D

        Nope,I run through a permanent VPN, so it can say “You already did this” when I did not. An exit refresh works, just need to get an IP nobldy else used.

          Ah, I see. I have this issue sometimes when I use VPN to access YouTube with third party apps. I saw there was a separate option to allow one vote per IP. I could change that to vote per browser session, but don’t know if this works well or has other quirks too. I’m sorry for this.
