Elections

I've made a fairly major change to elections that should be pointed out.
It's also been noted in HELP ELECTIONS.

Voting in elections is now based on a weighted vote system that scales
to playtime. An individual's vote is worth between 1 and 5 votes in the
final election count depending on their average playtime over the
previous five weeks. I have had these values calculating so they are
accurate immediately for everyone.

Vote values are as follows:


Playtime Vote Strength
-----------------------------------------
< 5 hours 1 Vote
< 12 hours 2 Votes
< 19 hours 3 Votes
< 26 hours 4 Votes
> 26 hours 5 Votes

Exactly 26 hours of playtime will also yield 5 votes.

Also note that you may now change your vote at any time during the
course of an election or referendum.
