Votes from people that are not logged in count only 1/4 of a vote (mostly from twitter)
Votes made from an account that have never posted are counted as 1 vote
After posting, newbie accounts (Less than 6 months old) can raise their vote power based on how much they post
Less than 50 posts 1.5x per vote
50 to 100 posts count 2x per vote
More than 100 counts 2.5x per vote.
Rookie accounts (6 months to 1 year old) raise their vote power like this:
Less than 50 posts, 2x per vote
50 to 100 posts, 2.5x per vote
More than 100 posts, 3x per vote
Veteran accounts (1 to 3 years old) raise their vote power like this
Less than 50 posts, 2.5x per vote
50 to 100 posts, 3x per vote
More than 100 posts, 3.5x per vote
Seasoned Vets (accounts 3 to 5 years old) raise their vote power like this
Less than 50 posts, 3x per vote
50 to 100 posts, 3.5x per vote
More than 100 posts, 4x per vote
Hall of Fame accounts (accounts more than 5 years old) raise their vote power like this
Less than 50 posts, 3.5x per vote
50 to 100 posts, 4x per vote
more than 100 posts, 5x per vote
So if your like Eric Lindross, your 3 votes count as much as 15 votes, or 60 of the .25 (twitter) votes
And that's why I've been trying to call out when someone is getting close to gaining more voting power, it makes a great deal of difference.
Okay, enough seriousness. Lets get back to having fun and getting Miss Hybrid that Triple-header: Miss Freeones, Eurotart, and Best OCSM!
