VoteRoulette
Randomized rewards for voting
Home | Permissions | Commands | Config Guide | Files | Change Log | Dev
VoteRoulette is a comprehensive, customizable, and fun Votifier vote listener. VoteRoulette allows you to make a list of rewards and players will receive one at random when they vote for your server on Minecraft server lists. This makes voting exciting and different each time a player votes and will encourage them to vote again to see what they will get next time!
Features
- Extremely flexible! VoteRoulette doesn't just give anything, it does anything.
- Easy to setup! Includes an in-game Award Creator. Avoid those pesky YAML syntax errors!
- Highly customizable rewards!
- Rewards can contain any combination of items, currency, commands, and xp levels.
- Items in rewards support enchants, custom names, lore descriptions, variable amounts, and Data ID's (For things like colored wool, or any other block/item in the game).
- Rewards have tons of other options too! Set things such as permission groups (Vault required), chance modifiers, delays for commands, eligible websites, eligible players, number of consecutive days of voting required, and so much more! (See the Config Guide.
- Ability to set a vote threshold. Players won't receive a reward till they have met the threshold. This is useful when you have your server posted on multiple server lists and you want players to vote on them all before they get rewarded.
- Special rewards called "Milestones" that are awarded to players when they have reached a set amount of votes. This gives players a goal and even more incentive to vote.
- Ability to make Milestones recurring. Make a Milestone set to every 50 votes or a single epic Milestone at 300 votes!
- Offline voting support! If a player votes for the server but isn't in game to receive rewards, the rewards will be there waiting for them to claim the next time they log on.
- Option to have awards auto-claimed when a player logs in!
- Inventory Protection. If a reward won't fit in a players inventory, VoteRoulette will notify the player and let them reclaim once they have cleared space.
- You can disable Inventory Protection, too. Items will instead fall at the feet of the player if their inventory is full.
- Visual Representations of Rewards/Milestones!
- Players can easily see the contents of Rewards/Milestones in a mock inventory screen.
- Editable Broadcast Messages! (Supports color codes)
- Set a custom message for a specific Reward/Milestone that will override the default message.
- A /vote command. Lists all your voting sites to the player.
- Ability to make Fancy Links™ which allow you to hide those long ugly links behind clickable text.
- Reminders!
- A periodic reminder for all players to vote!
- An automatic reminder after 24 hours have passed since a player's last vote!
- Extensive Multi-World support!
- Set specific worlds per Reward/Milestone.
- Globally blacklist worlds!
- Stats Tracking!
- See the top all time voters using the Scoreboard.
- MySQL support!
- UUID support!
- VoteRoulette uses Mojang's account system API (https://api.mojang.com/profiles/minecraft) in order to ask for the UUID of a given player name. You can turn off this functionality in the config by setting useUUIDs to false. (as of v2.2.2).
- A player blacklist. Prevent certain players from getting rewards.
- Option to switch blacklist to a whilelist. Only players in list can receive rewards!
- Option to switch blacklist to a whilelist. Only players in list can receive rewards!
- Option to turn randomization off! Just want to have a single reward and skip the randomization processes? No problem! VoteRoulette can be as simple or complex as you want it to be.
- Localization Options! Files are available to edit a lot of text in VoteRoulette!
- Check out and share translations in the forum!
- Automatic update checking! Always be notified of the latest version! You can disable this in the config by setting checkForUpdates to false.
- Update Safe! VoteRoulette doesn't use any native Minecraft code and therefore won't break with future versions of Bukkit. (Given there isn't major API changes)
- Metrics tracking! Help us see how VoteRoulette is used. (as of 2.0.1)
- Using Hidendra's plugin metrics system, the following information is collected and sent to mcstats.org: A unique identifier, the server's version of Java, whether the server is in offline or online mode, VoteRoulette's version, server's version, OS version/name and architecture, core count for the CPU, number of players online, Metrics version
- If you do no want these stats collected, you can turn them off at /plugins/PluginMetrics/config.yml by setting opt-out to true.
Requirements
You must have Votifier installed.
If you want to have rewards that give currency or rewards that only apply to certain permission groups, you must also have Vault installed.
Getting Started
- Make sure Votifier is at least on your server. If you plan to use the currency and permission group options, make sure Vault is installed as well. Are you using BungeeCord? Check out this post!
- Place VoteRoulette in your server's plugins folder. Do NOT place it in Votifier's "listeners" folder.
- Start your server to let VoteRoulette generate the default files. A copy of the config can also be found here.
- Edit settings and add awards. Visit the Config Guide for help or the Award Setups forum for ideas.
- Type "/vr reload" in your console to put the changes into effect!
Still stuck? Ask for help on the VoteRoulette forum!
Planned Additions
- Timed Milestones; Weekly, monthly, daily
- Set a votestreak with a range of days
- Custom fireworks support for item prizes
- Out-of-game Award Creator GUI?

Opened a ticket 10 days ago, no replies thus far. Anyone else here have any idea why this plugin is causing results outside of 100%?
I have a tiered reward system so when you vote you have a 45% chance of getting RewardA, and a 45% chance of getting RewardB with a 10% chance of getting bumped up to the next rarity level. Then on the next level there is the same 45/45/10 theme again. I've had it successfully give all rewards up till the 3rd tier just fine. But I've also had it tell me that there was a roll on the first and second tiers and it came up empty. There is no mathematical room for it to come up empty but yet it does so reliably often.
How can i have it reset votes monthly and run a command when a player reaches a milestone?
Can we set specific prizes based on specific servers voted on?
Won't load with NuVotifier: http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=b5WBwtW6
(
Will you add support for NuVotifier? https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/nuvotifier.13449/
Are you able to add placeholders? That way i can make a hover event when you hover above someone his name to see his total votes.
This is a fantastic plugin, and any updates are always welcome :)
@Filmjolk
Sorry about the lack of updates. Life priorities have gotten in the way of me being able to work on anything. I hope to return to it soon. Also, I haven't organized my Trello lists so an item's position on a list isn't indicative of it's priority, when you add a new item it goes to the bottom by default.
Where are you @ebiggz :( over 2 months without any updates on trello, bukkit or comment section.
@Rob5Underscores Yes I requested this feature a while back. It's in the bottom of the pile though if you check on the trello page.
Is there a way to make vote rewards execute regardless of whether the player online or not (or has ever been), if not: could this be added?
Thanks
Hey, I love your plugin! The only problem I have with it is that when you insert the %prizes% tag, which lists all your prizes because I have currency and items to be rewarded that I want the whole server to see, not just the prizes. If I have 96 TNT rewarded and $500, it will broadcast this. "staple43 has voted and received 96 TNT (The name of the prize which gives 96 tnt), 64 tnt, 32 tnt, and $500!" What im talking about is that it will broadcast the prize name, the money, which is all I want. It will also broadcast the items that were put into the inventory, and it looks bad because the name of the prize is the items that you get. Please remove the extra thing with %prizes% that will list the items that were put in the inventory.
@Sikatsuu
maybe paste your config?
I have translated everything into dutch, i added the links to /vote then i reload the plugin, but nothing has changed. Why?
If Dutchy uses this I know its a good Plugin! Gonna try it!
@ebiggz
uploaded the dev build, many thx for the change.
@dutchy1001
No worries. If you wanna grab it early, the latest dev build has the change.
@ebiggz
nice one, thx for the quick reply
@dutchy1001
There isn't a way currently. But I suppose I don't see a reason for it to be showing up in the console at all anyhow. I'll remove it in the next update.
@Orenthion
Thank you for your suggestion. I actually already have this feature in my to-do list and it is on my radar. :)
Hello! I have a suggestion. Could you make it so there is a in-game visual representation of the leaderboard. Like setting up top voters using signs and heads.
The player places a head down, and a sign above or below it, the plugin will autoformat the sign after the player formats it as follows (example):
so the sign will update the head with the player who is in first place with the total votes and say on the sign
Hi,
is there any way to turn off console message for the "periodicReminderInterval"?
