People didn't seem to like my asking for further explanation :(. I still don't see the bug, though I see my loop is written in a rather confusing way :(. I'm trying to compare what I have with sauoq's version. The first difference I see is whether the day number is printed just before or just after incrementing, which is really a cosmetic issue. We also differ on if the "used all votes" bonus applies to monks; Voting/Experience System could be read either way. (update: monks(5) don't seem to get the bonus--updating my version now)

my version:

  increment level if appropriate
  increment day
  add per-vote xp
  add login xp
  add all-votes-used xp
  repeat
[download]

sauoq's version:

  increment day
  increment level if appropriate
  add login xp
  add per-vote xp
  add all-votes-used xp
  repeat
[download]

• Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
• Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:

  <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>

• Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
• Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
