Default HOTM?FAke!

You said that you choose HOTM's throughout install numbers

AWS has WAY more installs than Plugin accelerator and isn't in the poll?Why?

Install numbers is just a single factor, there are many to determine the outcome of the HOTM poll I believe (though I don't know them all).

It calulates the # of installs in a 4 week period I belive. He may have alot of installs now, but when the poll was created he prolly didn't. That has happen to me before.

The script takes those mods, whichj have been released durign the timespan of 5 weeks before the poll is created, and chooseing those 5 which has got the most installs during that timespan, so next month will be totally different mods in, as the release date determines as well

Yes, very annoying At least one hack of mine still gets over 180 installs per month (which is often more than the current contenters) but never gets a lookin

The date that it was posted is the reason for that, if you time it correctly it's possible to have a hack in the poll two months in a row assuming it does not win the first month and it recives enough installs.

It's an annoyance to me I have pride in my hacks and would love to have a hotm, even once would be nice Some great hacks have won in their time, but equally, some winners have vanished without a trace a few months after winning - long standing "steady" hacks do not seem to do well in it - just look at the top 5 vb3.5 hacks, only the v3 Arcade has won hotm - and in reality, that only won because the ibp hack got itself disqualified.
