We've said it before but it bears repeating: when we asked you to help us sort through the wondrous items for RPG Superstar Round 1, we had no idea just how dedicated our fans truly are. We had almost a half million total votes cast. That's at least 8,000 hours of cumulative time spent ranking items, or the equivalent of one person* working full time for more than four years—all over the course of a single month.
- Number of Star Voters (100 votes): 592
- Number of Dedicated Voters (500 votes): 231
- Number of Marathon Voters (1,000 votes): 84
- Number of people who voted exactly 99 times: 8
- Number of people who voted exactly 501 times: 116
Special thanks go to our three Champion Voters (5,000 votes):
- Thomas LeBlanc: 8,197 votes
- CHEERS: 5,371 votes
- Feros: 5,327 votes
The judges are combing the results right now, and the top 32 items will be unveiled Tuesday, January 22 at 2 p.m. Pacific time. If you haven't started on your Round 2 archetype for the River Kingdoms, you'd better get busy!
