Just had a victory and an outpost takeover after three days.
First day resulted in slight victory (or something phrased like that), the second day was victory, the third day was total victory and on today's tick the outpost went to the faction I support.
Maybe it goes full seven days for the control of the whole system & the main station, but these were elections between two ~12% low ranked factions for an outpost.
no.
the first tick of election action-starts, it's 0-0.
the second tick starts, you have won the first, it states 1-0.
the third starts, you have won the first and second, it states 2-0 etc. pp.
today you have won the fourth tick, outpost changed hands (4-0). but as the elction ended with that, it does not state 4-0.
if you would have not won the last tick, and neither the other side, it would not changed hand and still be 3-0.
counting in the BGS ("Days") is always confusing. a fellow BGS player lately suggested to me, to count "announcements", instead of "days"
