Inactive01 5,299 April 6, 2014 Share April 6, 2014 I think you're all missing the point of the Final Round and it being set up this way... I still can't believe you all are trying to get your pony to have the most votes... Mathematically, everyone should be the same... That being said, I'm going to show the results of the MLPF World Cup Draw a month early! I'm doing it today! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghostfacekiller39 23,880 April 6, 2014 Share April 6, 2014 Im not holding this against the Pinkie fans, i know it was a tiny minority that did what it did. But i just cannot find any joy in this competition anymore. I'm having trouble finding joy in it myself, but meh, it all comes down to being in it for Rarity I'm not going to be nearly as enthusiastic as I was after last night's debacle, but I'm still going to cheer Rarity on as much as I can, and try to have some fun with it I'm already feeling a bit better just getting to cheer her on 2 He who is Positively Obsessed With All Things Rarity!!!

Scootie 109 April 6, 2014 Share April 6, 2014 It "falls apart" because you have to pick one or the other. Can't vote both AJ AND Rarity. That would have happened anyway if the both made it to final together Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pinkie had one more vote when the poll was wiped clean. Just, try not to look into things too hard. Pick your favorite or support them all. 1 http://i74.photobucket.com/albums/i241/girsmj86/MLP/124343-animatedanimated_gifgifTrixie_zps4aa82173.gif WTB: Luna, Trixie dog tags & AJ blind bag | This fandom needs more Mane-iac! | AJ, Rarity, and Trixie trot into a bar.

Pick your favorite or support them all. Rarijack isn't going to fall apart. That's all I'm saying. This actually makes them less likely too, seeing as there are two other ponies to compete against.

Silver Letter 1,832 April 6, 2014 Share April 6, 2014 In my opinion, having this new system added at the last minute from the point of view of the posters here is offensive. It should have been mandated from the beginning that this would be the case instead of being the secret goal. I am not sure if it would have saved Twilight or not but I guess it doesn't matter at all. The purpose of this 'contest' was for everypony to "win" and it's now been revealed to this effect. It's done as some long term positive relations exercise and it makes me very upset to be so manipulated. I am not in any way 'participating' in another contest on this site. The word is in quotes because our participation was irrelevant. 2 Silver Letter!!!

Flutter's lover <3 8,210 April 6, 2014 Share April 6, 2014 (edited) Yesterday was a complete clusterfuck of WTF, with name calling, pony shaming, but yesterday's history is erased, we can start fresh!

That thing got so heated we actually had to have roving patrols around the candidates houses. But those other rounds did not have the "shitstorm" that surrounded the others, so this new move is trying to bring people back in. Its like a band aid, once its healed it can be removed. 1 http://mlpforums.com/page/roleplay-characters/_/vera-yeoman-r5921Muh pleb tier OC .http://mlpforums.com/blog/1663/entry-12477-pony-waifu-wedding-13-maiq-x-fleetfoot/ MLP forum's #1 Fleetfoot fan also married to fleetfoot <3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The reason the other rounds didn't get the opportunity and didn't need it, was because they were actual competitions that were fun, friendly, and had clear leaders in the polls without resorting to shady tactics. Even the Twi v Rarity round was civil and just for the most part. If you missed yesterday, then you'll not understand the full grasp of why this voting method was needed for the final round. Also, everyone can not, and will not win. That's just there to show support basically if you don't care who wins out of the four other who started the mlpforums riots of yesterday.

I was even making jokes towards Rarity and Flutters (mostly with Flufflepuff's pillow attacks), but alot of the crap was being dealt with. The biggest problem I saw, was people complaining about it after, and even some stuff that apparently happened before this round. Based on those complains, I'd say this round wasn't the only one to have some crap flung around. Feel free to add me on steam if you want to play something.

If people think this final method is a cop out or its lame, then they have their fellow users to blame. I feel more bad for the users who have been in this thing since day 1 and were being cool and sportsmanlike. They have to suffer because a couple of aggressive personalities came in and derailed the competition (who have now left and not shown back up). But things got too out of control and I had to change it up to restore order. I've got some guidelines and rules to consider when starting this back up next year.
