If you notice your options showing up as having less than 1, 4, and 9, thatâs because youâve spent more than 500 points, and have now reached the quadratic part of the voting system. My very rough summary:
You have 500 votes to spend
1 votes cost 1, 4 votes cost 10, 9 votes cost 45
If you go over 500, your vote strength gets reduced proportionally in a way that lets you keep voting like you were before, just with reduced strength
Most users donât have to worry about this, only a few have gone over 500.

This is important information that seems different than how the quadratic voting was originally presented.
Maybe make this information more prominent as an announcement?
Many people will be happy to âexhaustâ their 500 votes.
