Its time once again that all wishes gather together and do their magic.. ^__^ SONE FIGHTING!!!
Wow, news influx.
This post has been regulated to the 2nd page, and I can’t seem to find the thread in the forums.
Will create 1 thread later.
My friend’s translation:
Yes, you can vote as much as possible, but the system only allows one entry per person each day.
So my assumption is:
Voting is unlimited. But the lucky draw for the Amazon gift card is only 1 entry per person (account) per day?
Anyway, I shall continue voting till details are confirmed.

My friend just translated the message:

:(
THEY’VE CHANGED THE REGULATION!!! PLEASE READ!
※ vote as many times as is possible, will not be counted only once a day per person per sector.
※ posted content is posted to the service you have checked.

Only 1 computer can be used to vote once a day?
