Are all of these users going to final voting, or just the ones with more nominations? I assume the latter, since that would be the best format imo

It feels like it would be best to trim any users with 2 or less nominations. Also Wylted is at such a majority, that it may be optimal to advance him straight into the HoF without further voting.

Maybe you're right about Wylted... Personally, if it were to end right now, I would trim anyone with three or fewer votes. I don't think the majority of nominees should make it to the final round.

no, it is absolutely suboptimal to do that. Force everyone to either be loyal to 2 noms and betray wylted or vice versa, it's the tradeoff all would have to make based on your OP.

Never change the mechanics of gambles half way through, that is immoral.

I unvote/denominate Wylted and vote/nom nobody instead.

This is done to prove a point.

While true, the original post specifically stated: "If voting is overwhelming in favor of certain nominees, they may skip the next phase of voting and be immediately placed into the Hall of Fame."

That said, I'm not actually attached to doing things either way. Wylted had over half of the voters in his favor, so I openly mused applying one of the built in options. Had non-Wylted voters expressed support, that would have indicated the general will of the community.

Finally, while basically meaningless with so little time before the end of the day phase, I think I'll join you...

Unvote Mharman
VTL nobody
