Well, at certain points you get a title.
IIRC, Star Voter is 250 votes. They go on up to I believe 5,000 for marathon.
Best to spend the extra time double checking the items again, and then visiting the threads while you wait.
Edit: I was ninja'd T-T
Marathon is 1000 right?
Champion is 5000?

I wonder how many people are voting by actually reading and comparing..or waiting for the time to run out to click a button.
See as I keep seeing certain items pop up over and over to get voted on..Maybe I should just click Both Button every time..
I wonder are items that are bad are getting more votes simply because they are showing up more.

Actually, it's the opposite.
The algorithm they use for this tends to show more comparisons between items that get mixed reviews or negative. The mostly up-voted items appear more rarely as the voting goes on.
Thus the culls. Getting rid of the bottom voted items brings the higher ones back down overall. If you keep voting, things will begin to get better. Trust me, I know! :D

Thanks for that info. I have yet to see mine though I have voted probably 100 times, hopefully that is good news. No views is good news?

Why does it say Star Voter one instead of Star Voter 2015? ._.
Also, darn, Champion Voter takes a so loong time that it sounds painful :'D Reading all entries is tough... Currently trying to reach Marathon Voter, I want to see as many different items as possible.

Huh, they aren't going to be yearly anymore? ._.; Ok
I'm up to Dedicated already... I'm not sure what that says about me. ^_^
._. You must have taken less breaks than I did, I've been voting a lot too and I'm still not dedicated X-x;

All hope for this year has now been lost. Think I should start planning for the next season now.

For some reason it's harder for me this year to vote often, but I have finally reached Star Voter.
Regarding the voting algorithm I wouldn't bet on any conclusion, especially based on a single person's voting experience. I have seen my item last season only two times, and both were long after I reached Dedicated, maybe I was Marathon already. My item didn't survive the cull afterwards.

any idea on how many items were submitted?
This thread links to a spreadsheet of all items seen in voting. There's about 700.
Jacob W. Michaels RPG Superstar 2014 Top 16, RPG Superstar 2012 Top 16 , Marathon Voter Season 6, Marathon Voter Season 7, Marathon Voter Season 8, Dedicated Voter Season 9 aka motteditor |
Paizo never reveals the exact number of submissions.
The collected "items seen" list indicates 692 items. Obviously there could be a few that haven't been added to that list, plus however many are disqualified before voting begins (or very quickly afterward, before anyone adding to the list sees them).

I think it's more likely the contest moves to third quarter, instead of the first quarter of the year. With Con season being big release dates, the end of con season is probably more flexible than the time Paizo & other publishers are getting set up to go to the printers.
I can only see more than once a year if our hosts make money at it, which would require entry fees or commercial sponsorships. They and the judges spend their free time to run this for us. And it is a big time commitment. After their full time duties. They do it well, but they are essentially volunteers.

Are we sure big alcohol isn't sponsoring this one?
