Hello!
Voter turnout this year is lower than in previous years.
This needs to be addressed so the tournament is as active and engaging as possible.
I made the following mistakes:
• I underestimated how complex the voting system would appear to users, which discouraged participation.
• I underestimated how many people would not only DNR the instructions, but also put in the effort to submit their votes.
• There were coding issues during the first 20 hours.
I take full responsibility for all of this.
What’s Changing Immediately
Manual voting is now allowed again!
You may vote in the official voting thread by replying exactly in this format:
MANUAL VOTE
Vote 1: @Username
Vote 2: @Username
Vote 3: @Username
Any deviation from this format will not be counted, and you may or may not be asked to resubmit your vote.
Remember the voting rules.
Submit your manual votes in the thread below
If you wish to change your vote, please message me and let me know.
Manual Vote Processing
• Manual votes are usually reviewed once per day, (except Saturday)
• Review time: 11:00 PM – 12:00 AM EST
Automated Voting
• The automated voting system is still available
• Using it will get your vote validated sooner if all responses are formatted correctly
• The automated system refreshes every hour
Please, do not post your votes here.
I am currently at work and cannot process manual votes until later tonight.
The voting submissions
Thank you. These changes are intended to increase turnout.
