hellokimmiex3 Posted November 13, 2018 Share Posted November 13, 2018 Half of the voters voted for none of the entries? What in the world kind of people are voting... I'm sorry their are many great entries, but this will be my last time doing these contests because SOME people suck xD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sorry their are many great entries, but this will be my last time doing these contests because SOME people suck xD It's just the really weird way the voting set up works on this forum software, you can't not make a selection from a voting section, even if none of the entrants appeal to you, so there has to be a no vote option. It's not people being jerks or anything. Oh, also, a lot of people like to pick just one entry, so unless there's only a handful of entrants there's always going to be a fair amount of none getting picked.

I'm sorry their are many great entries, but this will be my last time doing these contests because SOME people suck xD sometimes people decide not to vote for any of the entries in one half of the lot .. so they are obliged to go with "none" .. it's not that they do it on purpose .. they just happened to pick an entry / entries from one half only :) so "none" doesn't mean they didn't vote for anyone .. bcz ure allowed to vote for as many entries as you want (last week i voted for almost all of them cz i liked them all) don't be discouraged .. this contest is just for fun .. and being up there with the rest of the entries is really good in itself :) Nielo, FreakyBowie and jellysundae 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sorry their are many great entries, but this will be my last time doing these contests because SOME people suck Like @jellysundae and @Angeló (tagging people seems to be not be working for me right now...) said, the 'none' option exists because if a poll consists of more than one part, you have to vote for at least one option from each part. It's just the way the software works. So for those who only vote for 1 entry (I've never been able to do that!) and for those who just don't like any of the entries in one of the sections, the option to choose 'none' exists, so they can still vote for the entry/entries they like. During rounds where we only have a handful of entries (which will fit in one part), I always leave out the 'none' option. As for the rare occasions (I've seen it happen only twice) where someone votes 'none' in both parts - I've never understood that. Just don't vote if you don't like any of the entries. I hope you don't stop entering! 18 hours ago, aleu1986 said: A lot of Lutaris this round! It`s fun to see the lively, colourful entries. Good luck, everyone! I noticed that too! The Runway was where I first realised I loved Lutaris (there was a Lutari themed round), so I'm glad to see some more of them. strawbreathe and aleu1986 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aleu1986 Posted November 13, 2018 Share Posted November 13, 2018 I voted for seven different entries this round, but I also chose the "none" option on both parts of the poll, for the simple reason that no entry really stood out to me as a personal favourite. I didn`t mean to offend anyone - I haven`t participated in these contests for very long, but I`ve always voted for at least two entries in every round.

Tagging NEVER works for me right off, I put the @ in, then start typing the name and the drop-down never appears, I need to delete the letter I've typed and start again and that time the drop-down will show its face, weirdness. Might work for you? I swing between just picking an absolute favourite if one particularly stands out to me, and picking all the ones I like. I prefer it when I pick all the ones I like though, because it's fairer for everyone to get the vote they deserve, not miss out just because I like another one more.

I didn`t mean to offend anyone - I haven`t participated in these contests for very long, but I`ve always voted for at least two entries in every round. Interesting, it had never occurred to me that someone would vote for several entries and the 'none' options. Probably because I've never considered 'none' as an actual vote option, but only as the box you're forced to check if you only wanted to vote for entries in the other section. It doesn't count for anything either; I know all the bars show percentages, but the only thing we check when announcing the winners is the amount of votes each entry has, completely ignoring the 'none' options. So while I get your reasoning that you didn't have any favourite entries, I think that showing that by voting 'none' doesn't really reflect that. (And as long as you're still voting for entries, we know you didn't want to offend anybody. ) 3 minutes ago, jellysundae said: Tagging NEVER works for me right off, I put the @ in, then start typing the name and the drop-down never appears, I need to delete the letter I've typed and start again and that time the drop-down will show its face, weirdness.

That usually works for me as well, but I tried like 5 (really slow) times while typing that post, and still nothing. It's working perfectly right now, of course, @jellysundae. I've considered picking one favourite entry at times, but there's usually at least one other entry that I love a lot, and it'd feel unfair to ignore that one, because I like another one slightly better. So I end up voting for a ton of them. XD jellysundae and aleu1986 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jellysundae Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 Whoa what, I won?! Ooh, that's a nice lot of votes, too! Thank you very much everyone! I enjoyed this round more than I thought I was going to, turned out to be good fun sending Mama Roo back in time, I suspect she'll be cropping up in my entries again if the opportunity presents itself, she's developing quite a character even if she doesn't exist yet, lol. She's became my lab rat Cora's eventual destination since her fishing trip a few rounds back. aleu1986, Nielo and Angeló 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
