vote reward page timer

didn't find if its been suggested before
i even searched for vote timer

is there a way on the voting page we can get a timer listed for when we can vote again?

I've seen it on other private server pages and its really handy specially if you are like me and tend to forget the last time you voted.

 

You could always write it down :wink:

But, that does sound like a good idea.

 

Sounds like a good idea. Probably low priority though.

 

Look at ur clock right under, which time u voted, and vote again after 12 hours. Can't be simpler than that :tongue:

 

An alarm set to 12 hours prior to your vote can also help.

 

well its just 1 sql querry + 3 lines of php code , should be possible tho

 

If you can get a PHP code that really works it is a good idee but for now just look at a clock before voting.

 

And btw, now u just put in your charname and vote and it will auto-add to your account, when u want a timer I GUESS u need to login then ^^, Else u won't see the timer, so more work to just remind u, unless it's attached to ur IP

 

I am not sure how its exactly in the db, so this is just example.
But as you can see its just few lines of codes.
time ... Unix timestamp,
name ... name of column where Name of player is stored,
vote .. name of table,

$dbconnection(conection to db)
$query=odbc_exec($dbconnection, "SELECT time FROM vote WHERE name='".$_POST["vote"]."');
odbc_fetch_row($query);
$time=odbc_result($query,1);

$nextvote=$time+(3600*12);

echo "Your account already voted";
echo "You can vote again at ".date("G:i:s j.n.Y",$nextvote);

Its easy, but I think its not necessary, just look at you clock when you are voting and add 12 hours.

 

Just nice to have a timer some of us have busy lives and can't remember when was it we voted, since our mind is over incumbered with other things. I know of other gaming sites who have them, if it's easy then why not?

 

This would be a nice thing to add, please do it.

 

+1 agree this will help alot to say how much time left till next vote

 

Just through the last voting or with every voting the time into the cookies and on page load compare it to the current time.

 

It might be a good idea coz for me i usually forgets coz am working like AM PM in one day ,huhuhu

 

set up a timer..i got one on my fone...i set up a reminder to alarm every 12 hours..xD

 

i agree.. will be really helpful if got timer.. :lol:

 

i think thats good idea ... for timing !

 

Well I was thinking...have a toolbar that links to the Gamez Website, and there is a timer on it that counts down from when you can vote next . So if u go on the internet to do something, u don't have to go to the website directly to find out the time.

Just a thought

 

I would like timer too coz Im voting while in school i wanted to post new thread but saw this one
