>>59165532Correct.
>>59165525>>59165550Funny enough, people who watch divegrass. Not the one who vote, mind you, but the ones that actually watches or want to watch divegrass.
Take previous cups as example. The roster is so full of holo reps the team might as well be called /hlgg/. Why? Because Hololive is popular, much more popular than any other thread or general. But why people did not like the roster then? Because people other than holofags are split and even holofags are split themselves.
Example: Lets say there are 100 faithful /vt/ team viewers. 50 of them are holofags, 10 are nijifags, 10 are vshojo/lig fags, 10 are indie fags, 10 JP fags and 10 are OC/meta threads fags(including but not limited to: hfz, vtwbg, yubi, #, etc).
Voting happens. All hololive players get 50+ votes. All fractured players get 10+ votes, excluding OCfags if they are related to Hololive. Since this is a multivote and there are no limits on how many players are included, 23 hololive players get in with 50+ votes while other non-holo are left in dust with puny 10 votes.
But that just made 50% people unhappy. Moreover, since Holofags are so numerous, exact same scenario also happens simultaneously inside holofag faction so out of those 50 maybe 25 are happy. This is why full unrestricted democracy is shit and cannot work.
What I offer is just to split players into sections depending on what type of thread they come from. Medals can ignore this rule, one can say that this is a hololive majority board and should be represented as such and I have no problem with it reflected in medals which SHOULD be a popularity vote. But other than that, I think section division is fair and also elevates a lot of butthurt by mere virtue of: "you had your slots but people who like same thing as you voted differently. At least you still have something to represent you even though it is not exactly the player who you wanted individually".
TLDR: Popularity voting is bad, split the vote into factions.
