June 28, 20169 yr The most eye-opening thing from doing this so far is that Desbuanda were in the first half of the votes for that contest! ;o Lol, I'm equally as confused that this ever happened! Go me. B-) (Rush ordering votes as we speak (cos I get a huge kick from making hosts' lives as difficult as possible obvs))
June 28, 20169 yr My Strange Addiction teas ! :lol: you need help hunny. :kink: At least i don't eat mattresses x
June 28, 20169 yr I like the idea of presenting the last day results in a block, that is certainly something to look into in more depth. In BJSC there is a habit of bandwagoning onto half formed concepts and ideas and ending up with monstrosities like the ban list (which i'm sure very few of you were around for, but trust me it was an unmitigated disaster not unlike brexit) so I'm going to hit the brakes and ask for caution here. It's something that we will have to trial on a smaller scale first, once we have had time to flesh out the concept. The idea is good and we will trial it in the next spin off, but a main contest is too big a stage for an idea that is still so rough and undefined just 24hrs out from the results. I respect that the idea has some enthusiasm and that's so wonderful to see and I'd like to harness that, but I think there is too much to discuss to get it done for this contest without it being half arsed or terrible. If we're doing it we're going to do it well. Just going to put this here. We're working on what this is likely to look like and will get back to you and demo it in due course, after all a demo is pretty pointless and meaningless if you have no idea what the format will look like or how it would be revealed. Reign in the enthusiasm, I already have Ryan for that, and just chill. We like the idea so it won't be long before we can do something that actually has a grounding in reality.
June 28, 20169 yr The other possible issue of course is that not all hosts choose to present the results in order of receipt, so this would pretty much eradicate the freedom for hosts to present the votes in the order they wish to, in order to maximise tension early on in the reveal or whatever (though I guess they could still order the first lot as they wish to).If it's just an optional method for doing results, then maybe a host could still post every country's votes individually the way it's currently done if they're willing to, basically decide for themselves just like how they can decide what order to reveal the votes. I was interpreting the idea as an option for each host rather than a permanent change, at least I think it's something that could be left to the host's discretion. Either way it sounds great (forgive me Silas, I didn't have a chance to read/post until now ^_^). <3333333
June 28, 20169 yr Where are Yu now that I need Yu (Rush ordering votes as we speak (cos I get a huge kick from making hosts' lives as difficult as possible obvs))Those late voters just like to be a bunch of bullies :kink: (I hope I get some points from Desbuanda soon! ~)
June 28, 20169 yr Apologies guys, I've got listened to the songs a while back but I've not fully formed my votes as I'm not currently in the mood to listen to songs right now due to family circumstances. I shall just bow out of next month's contest instead.
June 28, 20169 yr Yu has personal family issues which has affected his ability to vote and we were made aware of that in advance so much like Bal he was given grace if he wanted it!
June 28, 20169 yr Yup never a moment that was in doubt for us. The easiest decisions I ever make as a mod are these ones. Your families trump BJSC
June 28, 20169 yr Really hope all is right with you Yu, if you need anybody my PM box is always open http://cdn2.teen.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/pretty-little-liars-aria-mike-hug.gif
June 29, 20169 yr Author Only non-voters in the end were Vulkyria, Klum Rep and FKA n as well as Daehun who obviously don't get the deduction and ban for reasons stated in this thread!
June 29, 20169 yr I need someone to compile a big history of BJSC (much like the more general history of BJ threads we had in the lounge last year), as some of this stuff just needs to be relived! This would be fabulous. Maybe a collaborative effort from a few people (Bré of course, to name one).
