Voting every day from now to the end of Oct will give you a chance at Tier 1. For Tier 2, you need to take advantage of that "16 hr" window and vote aggressively - this is probably the hardest one, IMO. Someone with 500 votes has a chance at T3 and T4, and T1 if they voted every day. They'd still have to work just as hard for T2 as someone who's never voted before. (And, thanks to my work schedule, I sincerely doubt I'll be able to pull that hat-trick off myself.)
mineservers.net isn't showing up in rupee history for me today and yesterday though. Anyone else having that problem?
If you start voting now, and vote each day until the contest ends, you can still get into tier 1 easily!
a number of reasons one being that im lazy and was a supporter so i didnt need to worry about going derelict
