During the election week the node will enter an open-PvP battleground state for hour-long periods where candidates (and their citizen supporters) compete to gain points by securing objectives. The highest point winner at the end of the week will win.[18][19] Previously the developers were considering champions that fought in a last-man-standing arena.[26][22][27][28][29] Academic node mayors are elected via ranked choice popular vote.[18][19] This was previously a single popular vote system.[22][20] Records of who voted for who are not published.[14]
