teal grove
no poll voting today?
There will be, itll be about the same time as yesterday
balmy ibex
feel like none of mine made it past the preliminaries lmao
teal grove
Actually i just realized something
It's better to be second in the prelims and then first in the quarters
balmy ibex
oh?
teal grove
Because first in prelims means straight to semifinals while first in quarters means straight to finals
That's interesting
balmy ibex
I feel like some of the fusions might not pass to the next stage cuz they're up against vastly superior fusions
like in the same bracket
then again I guess if that's the case they'd meet said fusions sooner or later
misty acorn
It's better to be second in the prelims and then first in the quarters
You can very much make an argument that it is better to not be so successfull that you skip a poll, since people's pattern recognition brains like to vote for the same stuff over and over again
So if your sprite skips the semifinals, it might do worse in the finals than if it didn't
Not always of course, but it's a thing that is indeed a thing
tardy rampart
folks you might be overthinking it 😹
misty acorn
The only time I won a contest was after my entry went throgh the semi finals, so...
quartz locust
Commenting about how well/poorly you think your own sprites will do counts towards Rule 7, guys. That's the reason we put the rule into place to begin with, and is technically the only time ever that Rule 7 has ever (and likely ever will) lead to a ban. 
teal grove
Doesn’t rule 7 specifically state not to talk about individual sprites, as opposed to how well you think you will do as a whole without mentioning your sprites?
quartz locust
I'm telling you that it counts, because "oh I think I'm going to do terribly" or "my sprites are amazing this time" very clearly reference sprites that are being voted on, and could sway people's votes various ways. There is no flexibility on this, posts to that effect will be deleted.
balmy ibex
oop sorry

Also, I'm impressed by how many entries this contest had, and they're all great in their own ways. 🙂

Honestly next contest you can just make it so the first, second and third of prelims go to the quarters instead of just the second and third. That should solve it

Why did over 50 more people vote for the fourth quarter poll than any of the oth...
Probably cause it's the first you see when opening the chat
brave pilot
Probably cause it's the first you see when opening the chat
Yeah that was my guess
errant hazel
Some people don't scroll up I assume
brave pilot
Though isn’t it disadvantageous to be in that one
teal grove
Id argue it’s advantageous
normal oyster
Scrolling is hard ;-;
errant hazel
I think the voting size is large enough where that sort of difference isn't really an advantage or disadvantage
brave pilot
Id argue it’s advantageous
The other polls were super close
If there were more votes it could have made a big difference
Which went to semis and which to finals
errant hazel
That's like saying if all 50 voted for 1 sprite, which statistically is unlikely
brave pilot
More votes means more random distribution which could make a sprite win that wouldn’t win in a different poll
errant hazel
With 150 votes, there's already a fair spread to "average" to a public opinion, 50 more most likely wouldn't sway it
teal grove
That's like saying if all 50 voted for 1 sprite, which statistically is unlikely
No that’s not what he's saying at all. If #4 has 5 votes and #3 has 6, it just takes two extra to make a difference. That’s what tunana is saying
brave pilot
Yeah
So the “random” aspect of it is greater
Like in one of the polls it was a 3 vote difference between being in the finals or semifinals
It could have been different had it been the most voted poll
errant hazel
Except it isn't random, the 50 don't get assigned randomly, it would be likely that it would follow the voting pattern across the current spread
errant hazel
No that’s not what he's saying at all. If #4 has 5 votes and #3 has 6, it just t...
Which with a margin of error could lead to an example like this
teal grove
So wait, you're saying im right and tunana is wrong?
errant hazel
Actually wait
teal grove
My man, im saying what tunana is saying
errant hazel
This becomes a huge issue on Quarter 1
teal grove
So now you get it
errant hazel
Yeah my bad
brave pilot
Except it isn't random, the 50 don't get assigned randomly, it would be likely t...
Yes generally it would be similar but first and second could be different
brave pilot
This becomes a huge issue on Quarter 1
Wdym?
errant hazel
That's for 3rd
brave pilot
Oh it is?
errant hazel
Yeah
brave pilot
Oh I see
Yeah one moved on but with a bit more randomness it could have easily been any of the other three
errant hazel
Which this problem is harder to solve, since it relies on "good faith" and participation and reading. Which can only really be solved by having one poll at a time? Or maybe linking the first poll as a message so that it can be scrolled down instead of up?
I'm sure there are other clever solutions, but none that I'm smart enough to think up now
brave pilot
Within the announcement say to vote on all four polls
That could help
Most of the prelims have very similar vote counts I think isn’t wasn’t clear that there were 4 quarter polls
errant hazel
Google forms could work, since you can make it required to answer all polls in order to vote, but that will probably result in less voters
It's a hard to solve conundrum
brave pilot
Yeah
