Everyone loves the map vote, especially when nobody votes. So!
It's time to BYOB -- buy your own ballots.
First, voting in a map vote should reward you with 100 spacebux or so. A token amount, but there as a small reward to encourage people to vote.
Then, ballot stuffing. Spending spacebux to rig the election towards what you want:
If you spend...
10,000: Your vote counts for 2.
100,000: Your vote counts for 3.
1,000,000: Your vote counts for 4.
When you do this, everyone sees something along the lines of medal rewards:
Someplayer40 has spent 100,000 spacebux to rig the election in favor of Oshan Laboratory!
If your choice manages to win by less than the amount of votes you had minus one -- so if you paid 100K to vote x3 and the choice wins by 2 -- , you get a medal for effectively bribing your way to victory.
Someplayer40 has earned the Election Fraud medal.
I would also suggest lengthening the map vote time to 5 minutes, with another chat line at the one minute mark mentioning that polls are closing and giving a readout of the current tally, in addition to broadcasting the final vote totals.
Basically, make map voting a little funnier and give people more dumb shit to blow spacebux on.
