May 2, 2020 at 2:36 comment added Booga Roo @Joachim Certainly there are times where one entry is a runaway winner that's unlikely to be surpassed. I think there's an excellent example right in this week's current standings. I think it's incredibly unlikely that 8-10 votes will come in for the current 2nd and 3rd place entries without more also being cast for the Animal Crossing entry. From that standpoint, might as well call this one done. There's certainly a long-shot chance that one might catch up, but I seriously doubt that will happen.
May 1, 2020 at 22:29 comment added Joachim @BoogaRoo Yes, I thought about overlapping contests as well, but leave that up to the admins :) Mind that the underlying reason was not the pace of these contests necessarily, nor to mess with the consistency and predictability (which, indeed, are important aspects of fair contests), but simply wondering about the necessity of that second week. I feel that most if not all of the time the leading entry after the first week gets the worm.
May 1, 2020 at 11:55 comment added Booga Roo If people feel like these contests are too slow, what I would propose is overlapping contests. I.E. A new contest every week with the same voting protocol as we currently have. That said, I only think this would work if people could find the attention span to juggle simultaneously running contests. I fear having two contests at the same time would draw attention away from the previous week's voting pool.
May 1, 2020 at 11:53 comment added Booga Roo @Joachim I think last week's results speak to the value of fixed week-long voting periods that don't depend on the timing of the last submission. To me, consistency and predictability are just as important as fairness for these events.
Apr 28, 2020 at 8:55 comment added Joachim Is there a way to see how many votes are cast in a specific thread in a specific period of time? I'm wondering if these second voting-only weeks are worth the wait, or maybe just make us lose momentum. Supposing that after the first week we add a week (or another amount of days) from the moment the last valid entry was uploaded, we could improve the rolling of the ball, so to speak. (Depending, naturally, on the moderators.)

Apr 20, 2020 at 22:57 comment added Fabian Röling I could submit my winning screenshot again this time. :D
