I'm a little bit of a geek about voting systems so.... here's my result of running the numbers. This is an interpretation of the results based on the Instant Runoff Voting system, as that is how the vote was ran after all.
So, Sturg had a majority of 1st place votes so won.
Code: Select all
Sturg: 54.84%
MECHDRAGON777: 16.94%
sebby19: 9.68%
PixelPest: 5.65%
Dragon Fogel: 4.84%
SuperShroom: 4.84%
rpgfan4: 3.23%
If Sturg was eliminated, it would be a cascade of eliminating the next weakest candidate until you get a majority... leading to MECHDRAGON777
Code: Select all
MECHDRAGON777: 57.26%
Dragon Fogel: 42.74%
If Sturg and MECHDRAGON777 were both eliminated... the cascade of eliminations would have made PixelPest a narrow winner
Code: Select all
PixelPest: 50.81%
Dragon Fogel: 49.19%
If Sturg, MECHDRAGON777, and PixelPest were eliminated... It would have been a literal EXACT tie between Dragon Fogel and sebby19
Code: Select all
Dragon Fogel: 50.00%
sebby19: 50.00%
If all of the above winners were eliminated.... that would leave just rpgfan4 vs SuperShroom remaining
Code: Select all
rpgfan4: 62.10%
SuperShroom: 37.90%
Based on these hypothetical eliminations, one could interpret the overall rankings, in terms of how-close-they-were-to-winning-under-the-system as:
1) Sturg (by a sizable margin)
2) MECHDRAGON777
3) PixelPest (just narrowly ahead of the following two)
4) Perfect tie between Dragon Fogel and sebby19
5) rpgfan4
6) SuperShroom
Also to give an idea of how close the top two were, if it were just a vote between Sturg and MECHDRAGON777:
Code: Select all
Sturg: 70.97%
MECHDRAGON777: 29.03%
