You don't have to pick the maximum, you can pick as many as you want (or none at all), and they will all be counted

I believe I have squashed the bug that was causing your issues. Give it another go and let us know how it went.
Man this was a "fun" bug to figure out, but I think I squashed it. Try re-sorting your votes again.
After with an bug with the game selection, i voted!
I liked the new system :3

You are a gentleman and a scholar and likely an actual wizard.
Voting was enjoyable, the pin feature was really nice for narrowing down the decisions. Completely missed the art slideshow thing though and used new tabs instead. Oops.
Monthly voting works really well!
OKAY so monthly voting overhaul thoughts:
I may be biased as every little NG fix and update makes me happy, but I don't think this has been too boring of a year for NG updates, as was said previously! KUDOS as usual to @PsychoGoldfish and everyone else who contributes to NG's upkeep! <3

The bug with selecting items should now be fixed, so give it another try if you ran into trouble earlier. The second bug is that the invite PM shows the old deadline of September 6th, when the new deadline is end of day September 13th.
Moving along to the original post:
This next week is gonna be pretty nuts, hope you’re ready!
Here’s what is happening, starting tomorrow:
Monthly Voting Overhaul
Saturday, September 7th: Our new monthly voting system makes its debut, with an expanded voting pool. If you’re part of the pool, you’ll receive an invite from @P-Bot via PM.
Monthly voting will now work on mobile and has expanded to include categories for Art and Music. The link above includes a walkthrough of the new process but @PsychoGoldfish has managed to add two last-minute surprises!
The first is an alpha version of our Art Slideshow Viewer, to make it easier to digest the 100 art nominees. Art, Audio and Movies all let you play entries in-page by clicking the item thumbnail. With art and movies, the arrow keys advance to the next item. This remains on the todo list for audio!
The second addition is a Pin button, so you can pin items to the top of the nominee list, under your Top 10 selections. This helps to organize your thoughts as you finalize which ten entries you will be ranking.
Picking the best of the month can be a big undertaking but we’re trying to make it fun and hope you discover lots of new favorites along the way!
If you get invited and rank your favorites, reply to this post and let us know how the experience was for you. If you try it on mobile, let us know how that works out too!
Brazil Art Contest
Also on Saturday: @Arzonaut will be announcing a Brazil-themed art contest, with prizes! This spawned from the Brasil Roll Call thread.
Dreamcast Collab
Monday, September 9th: The much anticipated Dreamcast Collab arrives! The Dreamcast launched on 9-9-1999 and this collab celebrates its 25th birthday. We’ll also have a Dreamcast site skin by @sheepSLAPS!
Friday Night Funkin’
Thursday, September 12th: The next FNF update, with playable Pico! We’ll have an FNF site skin by @KornArt3, as well!
Surprise?
Friday, September 13th: A tentative surprise! It's a movie.
Best of August Announcement
Saturday, September 14th: If nothing breaks, expect the Best of August to be announced. Really curious to see how things go with art and audio!

Aw I'm gonna miss the very old NG top bar while picking my top monthly picks :) So far works well for me but so like we can cast vote on like a total of 40 submissions now? I hope its ok if not all categories are filled out. (yet anyways)
The new system is slick and definitely more user friendly, good shit

Things are starting to shape up nicely, plus the site is running better after all the behind-the-scenes stuff that has gone on this year! Jim is prepping for the next stable release of PHP, which is expected in November and will bring some useful features. Our text editor update to Quill 2.0 is also on the way. Should be lots more improvements before the year is up!
Just voted, it was very smooth and simple. I personally didn't use the pin feature but could see it being useful if I hit my limit and hand a tough choice to make
Can you add the ability to rate audio that's currently playing in the audio monthly voting thing? I like to use that time to listen to all the tracks and rate on the ones that I haven't given a rating too yet but it disrupts my workflow to have to open the link in another tab to rate it on the main page. It would be handy if the 5 star system popped up somewhere when the track is playing.
It's good to be back and see the community thriving. Nice updates, looking forward to the tentative surprise, good shit all around.

We have a plan to bring voting / reviews and Add to Playlist to the in-page audio player, no ETA at the moment but it's pretty high on the list.
Can confirm it works great on mobile! I'm glad I can take part in the monthly voting now!
Yesterday I tried the voting system (thank you so much for selecting me, I didn't expect considering I am pretty new here) and I liked how user-friendly it is. The voting went smooth and there were a lot of cool stuff to choose. Art was the most difficult because I would have voted everything XD
Thank you again for this opportunity!

I tried it on both mobile and PC, very straight forward voting system and allows you to pick multiple, and decide on your favorites in whatever order you choose. Good work guys!
Response to Best of August Voting and a Busy Week Ahead! 2024-09-08 23:15:46 (edited 2024-09-08 23:18:28)
I voted on pc using Chrome and the experience was great! I didn't see a reason to pin things at first, but when selecting the nominees I found it very useful for submissions I didn't view before and wanted to, this really helped with Audio because I don't listen to that much music here lol (I will now). I also liked the detail of selected nominees having the color of its respective portal. Very good update.:)
Oh yeah! On voting day THIS came in the mail!
So that's cool. :>

first time voting and, although i have no idea how the previous voting UI looked like, i can confirm the new system is definitely easy to use.
i was especially worried about being locked out of editing my choices once i was done with the first selection but i'm glad i can go back indefinitely to make changes as many times as i want.
ended up here because i decided to look up how other people are doing, in regards to the submissions.
since i pretty much only play games here, having to vote on movies, art and music as well felt especially daunting because i don't feel nearly as "qualified".
managed to keep up with the 10-submission limit so far, but the audio submissions have me stumped.
i've somehow narrowed it down to about 35 of the originally 100 entries, and still sifting through.
i have absolutely 0 music knowledge so this selection is entirely based on "vibes" and nothing else.
how do you people manage to choose only 10? any method to the madness that you'd like to share?
all of these are so good, i honestly have no idea how to pick them out
New voting system is sick af. Can't even remember how it use to be (gross).
I really, REALLY liked the pin feature. I'm definitely someone who has trouble ranking or narrowing down favorites, so that was really *chef's kiss*
Monthy awards are revived back and they are for movies and games as well?
