I know personally when I vote - all I think about is "hay look, it's 4 o'clock. I think it's been about 12 hours since I last voted, I should vote again." But what if I am off even by a few minutes. Should I (and the MUDs I vote for) be penalized for my human inability to keep exact time?

Erm, so if it changes to 11 hours and I vote at 10 hours, 59 minutes, am I any less a victim of my human inability to keep exact time than if it changes to 12 hours and I vote at 11 hours, 59 minutes?
Anyway, I don't care which way it goes. If you're right and it does have more of an effect on the lower end, meh. The effect will be minimal given that moving up, say, 10 spots when you're #60 means so little (the difference between the amount of traffic TMS sends #60 and #50, for instance, is quite small), and the top ranked MUDs aren't likely to change.
