United Planet vote bug

Can only vote on six races.

Is there a way to see more than just the A-F selections???? 

there's no way to go vote on more than 6 races 

so in any game I have more than 6 players even minor races this is impossible to vote on any past F... but the ai does not have this problem.

I got the same problem and it is really annoying since the United Planets is a really important part of the game.

Please repair this problem.

Do the largest races atleast show up?  I havent played yet with more than 5 races.

all races show up but only the frist 6 can get votes by humans,  the AI can vote who they like. they is some sort of scroll bar missing or they should add a scroll bar. 

it makes UP totally pointless without being able to vote on yourself.

The UP seems to be a law unto itself.  In MP the votes end before all clients have voted.  What is more, the results often varry from host to clients.  Have largely given up with it.

As far as i was aware the voting was limited to only votig for the top 6 races this is by design the fact that the ai can vote for more is i believe a bug

There was a working scroll bar before the initial launch of the game.

This is working as intended according to the devs.  Only the top 6 civilizations are eligible to be elected.  The AI being able to vote for anybody not in the top 6 is a bug, that was supposed to have been fixed.

Top 6 in influence I believe.

Everyone I know personally thinks this is complete nonsense and rubbish, and hates it.

Then Stardock tosses in an arbitrary -3 diplo penalty for leaving UP.

Damned if you do, damned if you don't.

"Fun!".

We're all demanding direct democracy IRL, at least here in Canada, but in our games, we're going backwards, in the future, no less.

 

In Canada, its called the "First Past the Post" system, by the way, feel free to look up one of the many, many articles castigating it as undemocratic, broken, corrupt, subject to rampant abuse, and an archaic impediment to progress.

Lol, saw on John Oliver last night where the Canadian Goverment ordered an EXHAUSTIVE 18 month audit to uncover corruption.  Yes, $1M was found, and some of the items were not very unethical (4K to attend a funeral, meals on planes, other BS Travel costs, etc).  The problem is the investigation cost $26M.  I think the investigators were more corrupt than the legislators.
