As a few members have mentioned avoiding self-votes by voting on an alt account, I am wondering if I should stop the self-vote prizes and issue more awards to the top 10/15 places based on position. Thoughts?
I support this, I believe it's a good idea but I guess the "no self upvote" should be a criteria. We have to learn to live without upvoting ourselves. Unfortunately there are users with self upvote among the first ten each week. No offense.
Thanks for the feedback.
I'm not against self-voting but to reward those voting an alt to keep the listed account at 0 seems a bit silly!
Is there a way to know their alt accounts? Some of us only have the one do I'm not sure how that works.

It would just be too much to manage and I don't feel like this extra work π
As long as the alt accounts not part of this league, so there's no need to remove the self-vote prizes. It is not easy to reach the top 20 of hundreds of participants and I think you can reduce the prize of 13-20 to half of it and add it to the top 12π.. that's my thought.
@cicisaja, if you are active on a daily basis and reply to comments, you can be on the top 20. I know life is not easy and we get busy at times but it's doable most of the times. You are doing great π
Thank you @erikah π I know how to climb up even to the top 5 ( my highest achievement was number 4π) and several times on 7thπ but, I don't want to be active just to be on the top.. I like deeper relation with anyone I interact with, that's why I choose quality over quantity for few months, beside.. I'm busy playing my monsters too. Thank you for your support and encouraging wordsβ€
If you know me, you know I'm not representing quantity here π If I would go for quantity, I would be on top every week but I'm not interested in that.
Good luck with the monsters game.
I do know you dear @erikah π we've been there on the leaderboard for sometimes π and I know what kind of a supportive steemians with quality posts you are and happy to see you around too. Thank you π
Aww, thank you for the kind words! You're a very important piece on this bord, so keep up the good work and Steem on! π€π
Yes, I think you should remove the self vote prize. Besides, according to the ethics here, self vote is not an offense. I think you should only stop the prize but remove the column entirely.
Distributing that prize to the 11 - 15th is a good way to go.

But it doesn't mean anything if people are just voting for their alt instead? :D
Of course it does! I don't like that either and that should not be rewarded either.
Maybe I'm not choosing my words carefully. What I mean is those who vote on their own posts or their own alt account, should not be rewarded at all.
What I understood from your statement is that you wish no more to monitor them.
π Maybe I don't understand correctly what you meant. π€
I don't monitor alt voting - I don't know everyone's alt :)
The no self-vote just monitors votes to the same account you are registered with, but there are more than a few people just voting a different account. :/
Ok, I guess it's impossible to follow all the ramifications.
My conscience is clear thought π
