First off, my apologies to those of you who missed Naval Night Part 1, I was dealing with a..."computer issue"...(to say the least), and i didnt get back till sometime after 5.

Ok, that done, When i was setting up for the 2nd part of NN, I realized I didnt have the newest voting station, and Linden stops paying on the 19th, three more days.

So here's the thing, As soon as i get the new voting station (hopefully tomorow), I plan on "canvassing" as many sims as i can and dropping one next to any old voting station i see. Then, I'll release it to the public. Hopefully, whenever the owner of the old voting station logs back on, they'll grab a copy, and replace their old one. I urge others to do the same, this way, when Lindens stop paying on the old voting stations, everyone will have the new ones. Also, after you've taken a copy of the new voting station, delete the public copy. I think you get recycling money this way too, although, i couldnt say so w/ certainty.

Maybe I'm the only one who hasnt replaced my voting station, at which point, feel free to ignore this, on the otherhand, i was walking down lindenburg and found a bunch of the old ones still out. *Shrugs*

Ouch you might take a financial hit on that Asher. Nobel idea but ....

Releasing to public only gets you $6 of your $10 back per primitive, last time I checked the voting booth was 10 primitives - $100. You will lose $40 per voting booth you setup this way.

Like I said, nobel goal, I just don't think it's practical money wise. :/

Yes Asher I also think its a great IDEA but you may be best off just flying around asking people if they need a copy.

hehe, actually, i was about to alter the idea anyway (the potenial for fraud w/ any distributor becomes too great). So instaed, ill drop a box off w/ a copy of the new voting station inside. Ppl can extract it and place it at their liesure. But thnxs for the heads up.
