What the score is
Score ranks this server for the current calendar month. More votes this month = higher score and a better spot on the list.
Independent server
score = monthly_votes × 10
Server in a community
score = (votes × 10) × (1 + community_score / 10000)
A small bonus if the server belongs to a network.
Vote rules
• 1 vote per player per server every 24 hours
• Each vote = 10 points (12 with a vote streak)
• All-time votes never reset (history only)
What happens on the 1st

Rankings start fresh. Top servers from the month that just ended are saved as winners.
