Voting for the Best Answer

In a Bounty QA, all participants who contributed funds—whether as the questioner, co-questioners, or peekers—have the right to vote for the best answers. This ensures a fair and community-driven reward distribution.
There are two stages of voting in a Bounty QA, and each participant can vote only one answer at the same time. The weight of your vote depends on the funds you contributed:
1. Stage 1 - Questioner & Co-Questioners:
Vote for your favorite answer while the QA is still in the answering stage.
The more bounty you added, the heavier the weight of your vote.
Answers with more votes will rank higher and receive a larger share of the bounty.
2. Stage 2 - Peekers:
Vote for your favorite answer during the peeking stage.
All peekers have equal voting weight since the peeking fee is standardized.
Answers with more votes will rank higher and receive a larger share of the peeking fee.
If you change your mind after casting a vote, you can still modify it before the answering or peeking period concludes.
