Results of the grid question at the beginning: Overall, there were 42 votes cast. Of those 42, 2 were accidentally submitted twice and 3 were voided due to fake or poor entries. Fake entries were determined by searching forum name, server name, and reading the comments section about each theme. Without voiding any votes, the standings would remain the exact same. Each team will receive a PM within the next couple of days with the feedback left by each voter, removing comments such as "Did not play this theme," since they will not help in improving the themes. For full disclosure, these were the 37 votes that were counted, in alphabetical order: Spoiler [TABLE] [TR] [TD="bgcolor: #DDDDDD, align: center"]What is your Server name?[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="bgcolor: #EEEEEE"]Angel Flonne[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="bgcolor: #EEEEEE"]Arcanine2[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="bgcolor: #EEEEEE"]aRiD DrEaM[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="bgcolor: #EEEEEE"]Arielar_77 Alt[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="bgcolor: #EEEEEE"]Ascarotte[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="bgcolor: #EEEEEE"]Beast[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="bgcolor: #EEEEEE"]BEEP[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="bgcolor: #EEEEEE"]BlackStar44[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="bgcolor: #EEEEEE"]Cylax[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="bgcolor: #EEEEEE"]DracoNinja[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="bgcolor: #EEEEEE"]Fuzzy[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="bgcolor: #EEEEEE"]Hades[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="bgcolor: #EEEEEE"]Hopkirk[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="bgcolor: #EEEEEE"]Joeypals[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="bgcolor: #EEEEEE"]Juggler[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="bgcolor: #EEEEEE"]Karp Karpity[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="bgcolor: #EEEEEE"]Kazuno[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="bgcolor: #EEEEEE"]Light17[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="bgcolor: #EEEEEE"]Michael Jenkins[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="bgcolor: #EEEEEE"]Nerd Of Virtu[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="bgcolor: #EEEEEE"]Ninja Assassin[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="bgcolor: #EEEEEE"]Obey to Kyubey[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="bgcolor: #EEEEEE"]Pokemonwelove[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="bgcolor: #EEEEEE"]Rainbow Crash[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="bgcolor: #EEEEEE"]Rentorar[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="bgcolor: #EEEEEE"]RiceKirby[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="bgcolor: #EEEEEE"]Rick Gastley[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="bgcolor: #EEEEEE"]Roild[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="bgcolor: #EEEEEE"]RudeStyle[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="bgcolor: #EEEEEE"]ScorchedSwords[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="bgcolor: #EEEEEE"]Sehun[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="bgcolor: #EEEEEE"]ShatteredDreams[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="bgcolor: #EEEEEE"]Sky Sentinel[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="bgcolor: #EEEEEE"]Solace[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="bgcolor: #EEEEEE"]Steam Baron[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="bgcolor: #EEEEEE"]Windblown[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="bgcolor: #EEEEEE"]xxx trainer xxx[/TD] [/TR] [/TABLE] And votes (also sorted alphabetically) Spoiler [TABLE] [TR] [TD="bgcolor: #dddddd, align: center"]And finally, Which theme do you think performed the best?[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="bgcolor: #EEEEEE"]Animals[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="bgcolor: #EEEEEE"]Animals[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="bgcolor: #EEEEEE"]Animals[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="bgcolor: #EEEEEE"]Animals[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="bgcolor: #EEEEEE"]Animals[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="bgcolor: #EEEEEE"]Animals[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="bgcolor: #EEEEEE"]Animals[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="bgcolor: #EEEEEE"]Animals[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="bgcolor: #EEEEEE"]Asylum[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="bgcolor: #EEEEEE"]Asylum[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="bgcolor: #EEEEEE"]Asylum[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="bgcolor: #EEEEEE"]Asylum[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="bgcolor: #EEEEEE"]Asylum[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="bgcolor: #EEEEEE"]Asylum[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="bgcolor: #EEEEEE"]Asylum[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="bgcolor: #EEEEEE"]Asylum[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="bgcolor: #EEEEEE"]Asylum[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="bgcolor: #EEEEEE"]Asylum[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="bgcolor: #EEEEEE"]Asylum[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="bgcolor: #EEEEEE"]Dino[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="bgcolor: #EEEEEE"]Dino[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="bgcolor: #EEEEEE"]Dino[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="bgcolor: #EEEEEE"]Dino[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="bgcolor: #EEEEEE"]Dino[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="bgcolor: #EEEEEE"]Dino[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="bgcolor: #EEEEEE"]Dino[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="bgcolor: #EEEEEE"]Dino[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="bgcolor: #EEEEEE"]Earthbound[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="bgcolor: #EEEEEE"]Earthbound[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="bgcolor: #EEEEEE"]Earthbound[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="bgcolor: #EEEEEE"]Earthbound[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="bgcolor: #EEEEEE"]School[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="bgcolor: #EEEEEE"]School[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="bgcolor: #EEEEEE"]School[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="bgcolor: #EEEEEE"]School[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="bgcolor: #EEEEEE"]School[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="bgcolor: #EEEEEE"]School[/TD] [/TR] [/TABLE]
Congratulations Brawling Bodyguards and their theme Asylum! Now I am forever left to redesign the flavor of the original Asylum created by me if I wish to code it and send to review
Congratulations BB, you put up a good fight. Now, if you excuse me, adding fix up Dinos-- yes finally putting an s on it-- to my agenda.
So the final standings are exactly the same order I rated the themes :3 I felt Asylum was the most ready to get approved for the server, while Animals needs some works but brings a cool feature that other themes in the past tried but didn't succeed. BTW, comparing to my predictions pre-coding phase: Final results were actually BB > EE > VV > DD > SS. I'm glad my prediction that EE would rate high was not far off. Most people predicted EE to be the last one :x I put SS higher in my predictions when I saw HD as the team leader, I would have dropped it if I had seen it was changed mid-contest.
The HD change definitely threw me off too. At least the DD low down was correct sorry for underestimating the power of EE :x As for BB - I knew Roild could win it ;) even if he had to steal my theme name to do it >:(
Team BB was the underdog this competition. >:O Managed to kick butt and provide an awesome theme that is never quite the same, while sticking to a balance that everyone behind the scenes loves to see. I'll accept new ideas for roles in the Asylum thread for all sides. Good job team and continuing luck to the other teams who want to run it through QC.
We come fourth with the most highly favoured lol. Btw out of 38 people in this only 9 of them voted. Shame on you all. Time for review soon then.
Congrats to Roild and team with a great theme of Asylum. And with a large number of mafia players, only this much voted :3 I always knew it would be a close call between Asylum and Animals, and it actually happened. Congrats to Animals too, gj flonne and team (I voted Animals :3) We really got a great time of playing with these themes, which were really cool!
Highly Unfavored: 5 Unfavored: 6 Favored: 7 Highly favored: 10 our theme is either REALLY hated or REALLY loved. at least we got 2nd place. Congratulations to Asylum, you had the bestest leader I guess so yeah congratz :D! I think we might not even get our '2 default approves on judges' discretion' because our theme is really unbalanced... This competition was so fun! I loved it. Very close top three, 8, 9, 11, I think even Earthbound had great potential, though, not many played it. I'm most definitely participating again... If it weren't for those idiotic AFKs/lazy people >:O there were like 3 people in our group who did the most
So huh, the adding up all the votes each theme received, there was 38 votes. Checking for the list of voters, there are 37 names, but there's a repeated name (Kazuno), which would bring the votes to 36. What are the correct numbers?
Update: Animals was incorrectly credited 1 additional vote. The results image and list of votes has been updated. I also included an alphabetical list of votes for each theme, so you can check my work. So, BB > VV = EE > DD > SS
Sweet, a ranking boost! Do both themes still get the 2 approves towards the theme or is it split since it was a second place tie?
Congrats to BB team. I had somewhat of a hard time voting, since I was inclined to vote for Asylum or School. I ended voting for Asylum though but, while School got 4th place, I'm still happy to see it was the most highly favored of all themes. Also why so few people voted? :/
Congratulations all. I'd like to thank everyone on my team, including Roild and Mewtwo especially, since they helped out and contributed a lot more than I did. One of our teammates dropped out because they were banned or something, but still, we made it through. Not bad.
Congrats you guise, our team was doomed as soon as HD left because we just started to deteriorate... It was just a mess. You guys deserved it!
"The winning theme will be uploaded to the server and considered "Accepted" (at the discretion of the hosts). In the rare event of a tie, there will be a tie breaker to determine the winner. As a runner-up prize to the loser of the tie breaker, their theme will receive and automatic Two (2) Approves in review. This prize can also be awarded to any theme that meets the current standard of the channel (at the discretion of the hosts)." Since there was a clear winner, the approves for other themes are the the discretion of Solace and I.
Well, thanks for clearing that up, so I'll just make touch-ups to the theme and then make a Review post for it.
