Hello again, bracers... For the 4th time... Where's my item? (Crying)

Ffffff, I need a voting break. They're starting to fuse together in some horrible torcstring umbrella soup of the +10 skill bonus.

And I just accidentally voted for the one I didn't want. Darghggh.

Oh, that's a clever idea. If it had been a bit better presented, it might have gone on my Top 32.

I just had to vote for the Magic the Gathering item. I feel dirty.

Personally, I like things as concise as they can be. If it can be rendered in 80 words, excellent. If it's a great idea but requires 300 words to do it, I'll still like it as long as it's not wasting words.

Oh wow. An actual weapon. I know you guys mentioned seeing them but I finally saw an item that is a weapon. Even says so in the title.

I've seen Weapons, Rings, Rods, Scepters, too many items than I can count that use two or more slots, items that use a slot but you can use it with other slots.

Good times.


Setting specific names?

I have yet to fall in love with anything over 250 or under 150. I think around 200 is generally best, but it really depends on the item.

I've hated everything I've seen under 100 so far, but that doesn't mean that less wording is bad.

So, I've seen a few posts mention something like this. Are the items being paired with other items with similar scores by the algorithm?

Because if that's the case, my item must not be very popular, if that was what it was paired with.

I don't think so and I wouldn't let that worry you.

80, less words to read. I found that most items that use up nearly their whole size didn't need to.

Finally had a pair-up of 2 from my top 4. Had to make a hard but satisfying choice.

I think it's based on how many times the item has been voted on (one way or another). That's why the "both items are equally good/bad" button causes problems, because neither item gets tallied, so they stand more likelihood of showing up again.

Initially everything is supposed to be compared with all the other items first, for a rough comparison, as I recall. So once all possible combinations are exhausted, we all pass out. Wait, that last part may be wrong ;-)

I gridlocked on two items that are auto-downvotes for me. I had to use the "equally bad" button.

Sometimes as the voting goes on, an item that got a lot of up-votes will be paired with an item with many down-votes. Why? Ask a programmer or a statistician. It will happen so don't sweat it.

Is the M:tG item the one with the flavor text at the bottom, because I just ran into it.

If you are claiming your item affects the senses, please make sure it actually affects more than one.

I just saw it today for the first time. It's not as bad as the other poop item I saw.

I liked your idea, I'm not sure why you picked that spell, but lucky for you the other item was bad so I still get to vote for you!

I saw an item that doesn't do anything. I mean it does a thing but really doesn't DO ANYTHING. No mechanical or functional effect whatsoever.

What was the point?

I wonder how many locks there are in the world, and how the GM would like to announce each one? e.g. walking through a city?

When does the cull happen? If we vote more will it happen faster? Please?
