[Mengerian]

It seems voting has not been "opened" in the system....

Either that or I'm confused about how to vote
[doublepost=1512688585][/doublepost]Also, the multi-voting for new members is not working for me

 

[freetrader]

It also does not look open to me.

EDIT: Now I was able to vote on members, but BUIPs appear not opened yet.

@solex could you confirm?

 

[AdrianX]

I'd like to get as many notification methods up and running as possible, I was thinking one way of notifying members was via twitter.

If you add your twitter handle I'll make a list of BU members and send out a ping via twitter.

 

[solex]

@Mengerian @freetrader
Apologies guys. Please try again.

Mengerian,
Are you putting your handle in the "author" box, in order to create the string for signing?
Or do you see "Bad request" after submit?

 

[Windowly]

It seems like my signing address still hasn't been fixed? I tried to sign and it gave me "
Bad Request
Action author not in member list." error.

 

[torusJKL]

@solex I get the following error:
Forbidden
Author '1C9Yur3xi5EgJxghonzFo6x2Wt9LDLdMRC' does not exist.

Edit: I also tried torusJKL and torusjkl.

 

[freetrader]

Thanks @solex and @awemany , the multi-voting worked like a charm.

 

[solex]

With the voting system we are trying to make it maintain historical integrity, so a hash of the membership list gets used in all the proposals and new members. This means we can't change any item of membership data when proposals are live, i.e. we should not create an inconsistency where the membership list hash changes during the loading for voting or the voting event.

@Windowly
Because your membership expired and you rejoined, your new member handle has a "_" suffixed. Can you please retry with Windowly_
@torusJKL
Strange that you have this error. Can you please PM me the vote action string which you are signing?

There was a problem with the multi-vote for new members, which awemany has just fixed.

 

[Mengerian]

Just voted, it all worked this time.

Thanks!

 

[torusJKL]

It looks like any action with my author name triggers a 404 Not Found error.
e.g. https://www.bitcoinunlimited.info/voting/actions-by-member?name=torusJKL&submit=
Will give the same "Member 'torusJKL' not found" error message.

@solex @awemany any idea? Thanks.

 

[awemany]

@torusJKL: Sorry for that! Should be fixed now. There has been some problem when your address got updated by @solex which I still need to debug, but I fixed the DB manually. Should work now.

 

[torusJKL]

I voted and it worked well. Thanks @awemany

The multi vote option for the new members is great.
Maybe we could have something like this also for the regular votes?

@solex As we can't do counter-BUIPs yet I have abstained from BUIP071 because I'm in favor of BUIP075. But would still prefer BUIP071 over the status quo.

In addition I have voted for BUIP072 and BUIP073 with accept. Should both be accepted I understand that the officers would find an amount to be sold that in somewhere in the middle of both BUIPs.

 

[Windowly]

This is the error I get now--
Bad Request

The signing key I used for last election was 1LuP7s5RfwJftn4LkWw8RmtwH3h5VMKRfN. Is it possible for the system to be updated with the most recent signing key in the middle of an election or should I vote here?

 

[solex]

@Windowly
Sorry about the problem, unfortunately I need to update the pub key after the vote, for next time.
Please do record your vote here, and I will include it in the total.

@torusJKL
Indeed. Your point is noted about the counter BUIP.

@marcus, as you have lost access to the priv key for the pub key previously provided, please also record your vote here.

 

[awemany]

@Windowly: As @solex said. There was some trouble with the new feature to update members that I implemented and I still need to debug that. And also it was planned to never update members within a voting period - so that's why I think it is overall better if you could either vote with the old key or vote here.

 

[Windowly]

No problem.

@Bagatell
Puzzled about this error, your pub key looks correct.
Can you paste your action string and signing string for one of the buips?
