Scene in banner made by Ravatroll.

Duration:

29 of July - 5 of August Deadline Countdown

Before you post read this topic entirely!

How To Vote:

-Voting will be anonymous, meaning that your vote will not be shared publicly.
-Send a forum PM to TOOP with this format for title [Forum Username, Summer Contest Vote]. For forum username, use your own forum username, or your vote will not be counted.
-You will play through each level to the best of your ability, and pick the best five. Arrange them from best on top, and worst at the botom of the list.
-Number them, the top level gets five points, and the bottom level gets a one.

-Example:

-Level One - 5
-Level Two - 4
-Level Three - 3
-Level Four - 2
-Level Five - 1

-Do not vote for more than five levels.
-YOU CANNOT VOTE TWICE, nor can you make a second vote saying that you messed up, do it right the first time. No exceptions.
-If your vote is not accepted or is nullified, you may not PM TOOP a second vote.
-Make sure to format your vote like the level list on this post, include world name, team name, and link. Any vote that doesn't follow this format will not be accepted.
-Any votes that do not follow the format or are clearly a joke will not be accepted.
-Only vote for the levels that have been nominated by the judges.
-You may not take back your vote after you have voted.
-You may not submit a vote representing anyone other than yourself.

Important Information:

-The results/scores will be posted once the votes have been counted and the summer campaign is added to the game. Don't ask for scores or reviews from the judges.
-IF YOU DO NOT WANT YOUR SCORES AND REVIEWS TO BE POSTED PUBLICLY, PM ME. [This does not apply for the nominated levels, your reviews will be public.]
-The community vote does not determine the winners, it will be used as a guide for the judges.

The Nominations:

-These are the levels you will have the option to vote for.
-The levels are listed in alphabetical order.
-All of the levels in this section are getting either first, second, or third place. Levels not listed either got an honorable mention or did not place.

FAQ

-If you have any questions or concerns, post them to this topic.

-Q: Why is this not a public vote?
-A: There are several reasons for this. To avoid pressuring people into voting for what everyone else is voting because it's popular, and to reduce bribery [vote my level for code kind of deal].

-Q: Are teams allowed to vote for their own level?
-A: Yes.

This world was not possible to finish when i played, but now it is.
The owner edited the world. If you dont believe me Ipwner was also there.
More bias. Off course.

That level was originally an honorable mention, when we moved the honorable mentions to other places to fill the gaps, we missed that an impossible level had been put in. It has been replaced from the list. Any votes that have happened before this post can be redone if needed.

Yes. Make sure that the level with the most points [5] is the one that is your favorite and would like to see in the summer campaign.

Yes.

Its a bit late to say this, but this may not be a great idea.

It gives people with a lot of team members pretty much 4-5 very high votes out of bias while those with few members will automatically get less.

I suppose you could find a way to say that the other way around, but this seems like allowing it would affect the votes more.

i'd say the people who are in the top 20 shouldnt even get to vote but ee doesnt have enough players for that

Bias is still bias, if they only use numbers and not who voted, it could still skew the guideline...or maybe I'm just over thinking it all, just trying to point out potential issues.

Slabdrill · 2016-07-30 02:17:12

i'd just like to say that giving partial results is even worse than giving full results
