This voting interface is cat!
pretty much as fun as opening several 250 stacks of jugs/sips/tastes/vials of karma.
some items should offer a right-click option ‘consume all’.
at least for other dialogues they actually thought about this and added the ‘give 10’ option to make it a bit faster (audio logs or refugee mementos if I remember correctly)
I was about to start this same exact thread. After turning in 380+ tokens, I just want to bite the UI designer in the face.
Well, it’s not a voting interface. It’s just a dialogue.
Seems that they forgot the usual “I’ll give you 5/10/25/…/250/All of them” they used in most other dialogs in which you can turn more than a single item.
It’s something I really hate of the current ANet. A team comes up with a great idea, but other teams may not use it, and instead do something completely different.
That leads to inconsistence on how all sorts of things are done.
You get used to grab some environmental weapon and use it this way in an event, and then in another that it’s mostly the same, a similar weapon works in a wonky way that only makes you wonder: “Why wouldn’t they just do it like they did back there?”
The should have some sort of record of standardized procedures or something.

Probably one of the drawbacks of pumping out content at such a high rate.
Yeah not kitten, it’s cat.
I had to click 450x to turn in all my tokens and it was such an epic experience… not!
I know right!! whoever designed this did NOT think it through.

Flame & Frost had it, both for turning in Audio logs and for turning in mementos.
Why they didn’t just re-use the code already in the game is… well… a complete mystery to me.

I had accumulated over 600 tokens by the time I was done with the achievements I cared about doing, but I wasn’t about to sit-n-click that many times for something that may not even matter. I said screw it, and tossed them out with the trash to save my finger and mouse a lot of unnecessary wear and tear. Someone in the dev group should be smacked for not seeing this 800-pound gorilla square in front of them.
I bet if they had included a “Take all my votes” option someone would have posted complaining that they accidentally used all their votes on the wrong candidate.
This issue of certain things requiring mass amounts of monotonous mouse clicking is a general thing that they really need to improve game-wide. There are so many things that require mass amounts of clicking which could easily be solved by an option to do it in mass.
Opening hundreds of bags / loot containers. Buying large quantities of items from NPC vendors (like Sun Beads for example). Trading in large amounts of Zhaitaffy for food (the worst one by far because you have to confirm every time too). And now turning in votes.
