Honestly, my problem with how the event ended isn't that Astrid won by a landslide across all servers for whatever reason, or the fact that Lisette still shows immense bias to her.

It's that all three of the quest's endings, quite frankly, suck.

All three wind up with Ywain the butt of a joke and the emissaries both failing in executing on their advice, as well as failing to find him an actual solution. Sure, there's an argument one would've gotten closer than the other, but it ends up remaining a fact that the guy wasn't really helped in the end. There's even an argument to be made that any one of the outcomes made his situation worse.

And this would be fine if Lisette then turned around and actually reprimanded the supposed Emissary of Love for it and decided to hoist it all on her own shoulders for the year regardless, but she doesn't. She pretends everything's fine when it's clearly not, and she gives the title to someone undeserving regardless. Sure, the nepotism argument makes some sense for Astrid, but not the other two, and even then, they didn't go hard enough on the comedy factor for it to really count in Astrid's route.

I just wanted an actual resolution to the event, regardless of who won. This really wasn't it, in my opinion.
