As the clock struck midnight on December 22nd, the deadline for nominees to submit verification for their performance achievements expired. Whether by coincidence or not, a surge of nominees successfully verified their performance achievements on the last day.

While the CEO Ranking league operates 24/7, 365 days a year, any new performance verification requests submitted after this deadline will be applied to the 2025 season.

The coming week will reveal the influence of external factors—specifically, votes—on CEO Rankings. Nominees can be supported through Individual or Company votes, with voting details accessible on their public profile pages.

To maintain the integrity of the voting system, we've implemented robust security measures. For the 2024 season, mobile voting has been discontinued. Votes must be cast via PayPal accounts, subject to a nominal verification fee to deter fraudulent activity. Furthermore, Individual PayPal accounts are limited to 5 votes, while Business accounts can cast a maximum number of votes equal to their company's employee count.

We acknowledge that no system is entirely foolproof. However, we believe that PayPal's stringent security measures against fraudulent accounts will significantly assist CEO Rankings in ensuring a fair and transparent voting process.
