I feel like this is slowly becoming a publicity stunt the entire time. From both anti-Hoseryx folks and Pro-Hoseryx folks.

Probably, saw a message board stating how they want people to argue to see the removed votes and pressure ttv to show it.

No human being can ever know the content of another human being’s mind. It’s really not best to try to assign motives, especially in a way that would cast another in a worse light. Let’s always seek to assume the best of others and build them up!

That being said, congrats to @TheUnderscoredDouble for winning! I loved this design from the moment I saw it, and really happy to see it come in first place!

Props to TTV and everything they’ve done in running this contest; I know there’s so much more that goes on behind the scenes than we the community can know as bystanders, and I hope things can move on and go more smoothly in the future!

And, of course, all hail our glorious queen Bendyryx, may she live on forever in the hearts of the people… :upside_down_face:

Congratulations to Double!
It’s a well-deserved win.
And good job to all the other finalists, I think every entry was well done and had good qualities to them, albeit different qualities in each moc :stuck_out_tongue:

I genuinely don’t see the problem in wanting transparency in a contentious contests results.

not entirely

@TheJerminator I have no idea. People in the community of note and some seemed adamant to have #6 not win. No clue if it means anything. Again, DeeVee said there was meddling in there so I just dug up that screengrab. Just laying whatever pops up out for disection at this point.

Didn’t even know the community had leaders in it. For me the only word that’s final is Greg’s and Legos if Denmark bricks decides to dip into Bionicle again

We’re starting to get some hardcore conspiracy stuff going on rn, that is for certain. Whether it is true or not, we’ll have to see.

ā€œDon’t worry guys, we call ourselves the Council of the Great Beings because we’re so full of ourselves and we did discuss the contest behind closed doors. But don’t worry! We totally didn’t rig the contest, and if we had, we would have picked something else :wink: :wink: (trust us btw).ā€

Read the room dude. This is beyond bad optics.

It’s always been my understanding that ā€œThe Councilā€ was made by a bunch of people who wanted clout. They later invited ttv. Please note all these screenshots are just one guy freaking out.

Haven’t we known all along that prominent community figures were weighing in on these contests from the inception, because of how controversial they were??

The way I see this is that Vahkiti, a member of the Council, was anti-Hoseryx, and tried to kill it, but the rest of the Council wanted to let the contest go ahead fairly.

Of course, this is all assuming that the Council even has any control over the contests, which seems unlikely.

It’s not a conspiracy theory to state that they exist and refer to themselves by that name. Whether or not they did anything of note is up to whatever DeeVee has. I just wanted to corroborate his claim that they were talking behind the scenes at least. The rest is at the moment conspiracy, yeah.
