YOUR VOTING POWER
Sign in to see your verified plots and Land House votes.
01 // TWO HOUSES
Aetheris owners govern the planet through the Nexus DACI. Voting power grows with land held, but at a diminishing rate. Active Commanders hold an equal second chamber, so the people who play the game share control with the people who own the land.

02 // THE SQUARE-ROOT RULE
Land House votes are the square root of a wallet's eligible plots. One plot is one vote, nine plots are three, a hundred are ten. Every plot still counts, but each one adds less than the one before, so more land buys less extra say.
LAND HOUSE VOTE CALCULATOR
Against 1,000 solo owners, this wallet would hold 9.1% of the vote if every plot were one vote. Under the Nexus model it holds 1.0%.
TIER DOES NOT MULTIPLY VOTES
A Core plot and a Common plot count the same: one eligible plot each.
SHARE OF THE VOTE
One wallet against 1,000 solo owners
PLOTS IN ONE WALLET
| PLOTS | VOTES | 1 PLOT = 1 VOTE | NEXUS DACI |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 1.00 | 0.1% | 0.1% |
| 9 | 3.00 | 0.9% | 0.3% |
| 100 | 10.00 | 9.1% | 1.0% |
| 500 | 22.36 | 33% | 2.2% |
| 2,000 | 44.72 | 67% | 4.3% |
03 // PATH OF A PROPOSAL
Every proposal follows the same path. What changes is how much support it needs: a routine proposal is settled in the Land House, a major change needs both Houses.
PASSES WITH A MAJORITY IN BOTH HOUSES
01 // TABLED
A proposal is tabled for a vote. Each Tether plot owner can table one Land House proposal a season about its station's lanes.
02 // SNAPSHOT
Voting power is fixed at the block a proposal opens. Buying or borrowing plots mid-vote adds nothing. Only plots held for 30 days count.
03 // VOTE
LAND HOUSE
Owners vote with the square root of their eligible plots. A Plant Manager votes for a plot handed to them.
COMMANDER HOUSE
Active Commanders vote, weighted by Operational Performance Rating and reputation.
04 // TALLY
A major change passes only with a majority in both Houses.
05 // RESULT
Results are public, and a passed proposal can change only what the DACI decides.
PROPOSEDSTARTING VALUES // MAY CHANGE BEFORE VOTING OPENS
04 // SAMPLE BALLOT
Try the rules on a made-up proposal. Choose how many plots you hold, vote, and see what your vote does to the Land House tally and the result.
This is how a ballot could look once voting opens. Every name and number is an example. Voting is not open, and nothing you do here is saved.

Even 2,000 plots add only 44.72 votes.
05 // BUILT AGAINST VOTE BUYING
The ways people usually try to buy a vote, and the rule that stops each one.
THE MOVE
Buy plots the week before a vote
30-DAY HOLD
A plot counts only once it has been held for 30 days, to stop last-minute vote buying.
THE MOVE
Buy or borrow plots once a vote is open
SNAPSHOT
Voting power is fixed at the block a proposal opens. Buying or borrowing plots mid-vote adds nothing.
THE MOVE
Buy one giant holding
SQUARE ROOT
Votes are the square root of eligible plots, so 2,000 plots carry 44.72 votes, not 2,000.
THE MOVE
Buy the rarest plots for a bigger vote
TIER-BLIND
Tier does not multiply votes: a Core or Mythic plot counts the same as a Common one.
THE MOVE
Push a major change through with land alone
DUAL MAJORITY
Major changes must also pass the Commander House, where weight comes from play, not capital.
THE MOVE
Vote the treasury or prize money your way
FIXED SCOPE
The treasury, studio revenue, prize funding and currency issuance are outside the DACI's scope.
THE MOVE
Split plots across many accounts
ONE PERSON, ONE SEAT
Plots count in the Land House only once their Commander has passed the identity check prize winners already take, so a second account adds no votes.
06 // WHAT THE DACI DECIDES
The Nexus DACI sets the rules of the Aetheris industrial game. It has no say over the treasury, prize funding or company revenue.
