OFFICIAL Eorzea's Next Top Model Discussion Thread

[FlareR]

No one attacked you. My post was very neutral. You deserve to be here, it's the last day why drop out now? The point I was trying to make was that this was an issue a few rounds ago that ended in no one being voted off because the judges votes didn't change the outcome of the influx of votes. Even if you didn't go around asking for votes, you said yourself a few weeks back that you were sad and your FC was going to help you out. I chose to only tell two people I was doing the contest because my friends would have done the same thing. And I've had high judge votes this cycle as well. And I've had encouragement and help from so many people that I've done duties with or just met on my server. I'm sure we all have. No one thinks your a bad guy so please don't feel that way.

None of the rest of us have our buddies voting for us. It would be easier if we all did that but then none of us would really deserve to win and it wouldn't feel like a victory.

This contest isn't well known to most FF14 players to begin with. Adeline at least did a lot of work on her in her screenshots (yes, I've witnessed her spending hours for the right day/night weather combo) and promoted the contest so that more people would come by and look each week and have fun. Even if you trying to sound neutral in the end, your earlier post did suggest that you think people asking for friends to help out is unfair and doesn't deserve to win (even though you do the same thing).

So wait, none of the rest of us worked hard? We didn't promote or spend hours on our shots waiting for the right weather effect? Trying to get that perfect outfit? It's not relevant how new or old this contest is. No one questioned if she didn't work hard or not. Her first post did come off the wrong way before she edited it, so I answered in that fashion. And your right, I do think asking friends to vote for you is wrong, even if you tell them not to vote for you, guess what.... they will vote for you. I had one person vote for me this entire time, which was my B/F. I asked him not to vote this round since people could only vote for one person.

As for the other Hyperion models that voted for me, i never asked them to and I thank Marik and Kai for the 2 votes they gave me. So no I don't have 10+ people voting for me. I'm sorry you read my post that way, but like I said I wasn't attacking anyone or think less of anyone.

Thanks for putting words in my mouth when I never even suggest any of that. All I meant was that Adeline put her time and hard work in making the contest lively and fun for everyone with her style. Therefore, she is a great contestant to have in any talent contest and deserve he rightful votes. Also, I don't care if you have 2 friends or 100+ friends that vote for you. All you said in your previous post was this:

"None of the rest of us have our buddies voting for us. It would be easier if we all did that but then none of us would really deserve to win and it wouldn't feel like a victory."

which made you sound very ambivalent about Adeline's legitimacy. Anyway I'm putting this argument to rest since it doesn't serve any purpose. Best of luck to everyone

He did not put words in your mouth go re-read what you posted Namasu before you start throwing accusations around. Read this quote from your own post.

He was saying is the first time that this all happened she said that she was worried she was gonna get voted off and then her fc was going to help her out which lead to a big influx. I make this request to the judges, please change the judging to a 75% judge say and 15% votes to ensure fairness and equal chance for all participants.

Don't even go there with that semantic garbage. I did not accuse Flare of his integrity in the contest. I just pointed out that he contradicted himself in his comments about friend votes and his obvious jabs at Adeline. Also, when I say "at least", it means that's the LEAST of the work that I've seen Adeline do in game to achieve her perfect shots, not that she was AT LEAST the only person of out all contestants to put in the work.
