Masternode voting on the Platform chain (for usernames) turned out to be broken in Protocol Version 6 (Version 1.6.x onwards). Currently voting does not work on an Evonode or Masternode if you have voted over 24 times. It was a small oversight where we would validate against the Owner Identity instead of the Voting Identity for protection against replay attacks. We are releasing an upgrade to Version 1.7.1 that fixes this issue.
We have decided to make this an emergency upgrade, that means that Evonodes/Masternodes that have not upgraded by the end of the epoch (around the 24th of December) will stall.
