In the last two worlds I've been in that started their world series, and thus award voting results are viewable, every award had voting results of 11 for 1st, 9 for 2nd, 6 for 3rd, 4 for 4th, 2 for 5th. Did a little research on the View Active Worlds page. There are 8 worlds with award voting results viewable - all of them have the same results described above for every award. Something broken here?
Submitted a ticket to CS, their response was to explain to me how award voting works without answering my question about why every one is the same. Will see if they can answer my second attempt more directly.
