Yay! A repeat of my favorite item so far this year (for all the wrong reasons)!

"Slot none" and "Slot --" are fine. There was a discussion about this last year. The convention goes back and forth between books.

Found a Disney inspired item.

Also, my general advice to people doing items that involve time: stop, just stop. All you're doing is making an item that GMs take one look at and say "Nope. Not gonna happen. That's a major headache waiting to happen. Don't ask again. I'll kill your character. You know I will."
Where were you last year, Jeff?
(Though at least most people said I handled it in a new manner that I don't think was game breaking, just a little too meta.)

I wasn't going to vote for you, boring SIAC, until I read the competing cursed artifact masquerading as a wondrous item.
I found an item that does nothing. No mechanical and implied benefit whatsoever. And it costs more than a +2 longsword.

I was hungry until I read that item. I don't think I will be ordering any soup today.
Wow. I think this one tried to ignore all the advice it could. It didn't just have an incorrect template; it had NO template at all. It fell into TWO not-a-wondrous-item categories, "appears to be a mundane..." and is "especially prized by...", was named after a character, and was rife with misspellings.
Mary Poppins' Polly! Can I vote it?

(Though at least most people said I handled it in a new manner that I don't think was game breaking, just a little too meta.) I was here. I pretty much said the same thing last year too. I don't know why I keep repeating myself. Must be caught in some sort of loop caused by a paradox.

I just voted for an item that I have seen six times and always voted down. Just when you think it can't go lower...

Rent a rogue vs generic stat and skill increase item...
Am I not turtley enough for your Turtle Club? Turtle! Turtle!
Wow, +2 to an ability and +5 to a skill/initiative? For 3.2k? Took you long enough to realize that the CRB stuff was totally overprized anyway.

I keep encountering the same items I voted against.

"It's always bothered me that my iconic and useful class ability can only come into play under certain circumstances. Here, then, is my solution: an item that will allow me to use that class ability every single round. Thanks for voting for me!"
I think I should go get some lunch before encountering more soups!

OK, what's up with all the soup?
First tie vote. Two joke items. I won't vote for either of them.

I now have two items that present an unintended image that makes me giggle when I read it. I hope they don't get paired up.

Dude, I can achieve the exact same effects of your item for free by the useful positioning of a fellow party member. Thanks for playing. Next!

On the bright side, I haven't chanced upon any item I've already seen, but, What is going on with the items this year ?. Am I just this unlucky? or is it like that for everybody?
I've only seen about four worthy items, and I'm decently on my way to voting 500 times.
So far, I have seen only one truly "flawless" item that was solidly constructed, innovative, well-written, and perfectly formatted.

Neither of you included slot formats! How do I wear these items? Are they slotless?
Tell me your secrets!
That item that seems obviously better than the rest.

In other news this one is super, super narrow.
