Why does Nerchio have more votes than Welmu :DD


maybe cause most of the people voted for Snute, and cant revote for #2 and beyond

this Poll is accurate only for figuring out #1

I think you should use pollcode or strawpoll or some other site that allows you to pick more than one option. That would make it a little bit less difficult to choose and also would probably give the slightly less popular foreigners a better chance.

so the poll is a popularity poll and not determine who is the best foreigner ok

cause only the #1 spot is accurate, and this poll isnt accurate beyond #1

for example, all the people who vote Snute, might have a different 2nd and 3rd place in mind, but they can only vote once for #1



Well... its just a vote to get into the tourney, they would still have to win to be determined best foreigner. Since madals wants more viewers a popularity vote is perfect. If the foreigner hope doesnt get voted they should have no problem qualifying. If they can't qualify then maybe they aren't the foreigner hope ;D

yea but this poll only shows the #1 most popular foreigner, its not accurate beyond that

for example


100 people vote, 94 of them think Snute is the best foreigner and want him invited, 3 people are a big fan of Ian, 2 people are big fans of Xigua, 1 person is a huge fan of Huk

so 94 people vote Snute, 3 person votes Ian, 2 person vote Xigua, 1 person votes HuK

Poll looks like this:

#1 Snute
#2 Ian
#3 Xigua
#4 HuK
#5 Everyone else

Does this mean Snute Ian Xigua and Huk are the 4 most popular foreigners, and should be given free trip to the tournament?

Does this mean Ian is the second most popular player in the minds of these 100 people? nope, because all the 94 people who voted for Snute, probably have a different #2 but they cant revote for any other spot besides #1

Alot of those 94 people maybe want #1 Snute, #2 Scarlett, #3 Bunny, but guess what? they can only vote once for #1 Snute, and cant vote for #2, #3 etc

Great stuff, thanks for putting this up madals! Although I agree with the critiscm regarding the voting system, a 4 choice poll would probably be better.

I think it's more that everyone loves your personality and not the bo5 you won against him 2 months ago.
why even

I feel like Snute, Scarlett, Major, Bunny, and Sen are top 5 for sure. I guess either Vortix or Welmu after that (personally I think Vortix). Or add Stephano because legacy.

I voted for HuK, he just got second in a tournament that only had Koreans and open qualifiers and generally played well, I know he has too many haters to make top 4, just thought I'd vote for him.

There is no clear top 4, I guess around 12 spots would be needed to contain all the serious contenders - both those who have been playing great in recent tournaments (like Bunny, HuK) and those on consistent, very good level for long time (like Nerchio, Vortix).

Would be a nice idea if they would be tied at 4th place when the poll closes.

its really sad that people in this community forget results after 2 weeks.

VOTE FOR FUCKING VORTIX.
he is at least top 5, in my books still top 3.

whenever he appears he wracks shit, goes deepest in WCS etc.
he just doesnt play as many tournaments cuz hes a fulltime student.

think about that for a second.

100 votes for vortix, sad to see the community vote like that.
