Why, why, are some of you still here after all the culling?

[Jeff Lee]

Some of my votes are coming down to the question of: Which one of these items isn't making me take extra notes and do extra math just to make it work?

[Browman]

Clearly some other voters and I disagree on what makes good items, I thought some of these items should have been culled in cull 1 or 2, not still here after 4 culls.

The wonders of public voting. You get a variety of opinions, many of which will not coincide with, and often are in direct opposition to, your own.

Fixed it for you :O

it is now at this point where I think any comment in this thread or the praise thread that even has a chance of applying to my item, has to be about my item. Not exactly great for the mentality.

This will led to madness!!!

[Wren Brown]

Curse you Voting Algorithim! I am never going to vote for that particular Item no matter how many times you show it to me!

*deep breaths* Okay I feel better now.

[R D Ramsey]

People really don't like incorporeal creatures, huh?

Yeah, wraiths suck. Don't even get me started on specters and allips.

[Aaron Miller 335]

Finding less to snark about, just frustrated by some that are still in.

[Jeff Lee]

Ugh. I actually really like this item. If it had been a bit more mechanically sound, it could have been one of my favorites. Great flavor, sloppy execution.

[WILL CRITIQUE FOR FOOD]

If somebody is concerned about the public's thoughts on your item, feel free to contact me, I'll give it the once-over. If anything, I can try to allay some of your concerns. I feed off of social interaction, so this gives me a reason to be chatty too.

[Jeff Hazuka]

One of those is pretty sweet. Having more than one in the same fight becomes problematic.

[Omnitricks]

Item, please stop shouting at me.

Stahp!

STAHP!

[Nazard]

Is it just me, or are there a lot more items made from the hides/teeth/fangs/claws of various monsters this year than any year previous?

[Aaron Miller 335]

I see the incoherent reducer of strength is still in, the thing is wearing me down to a blathering idiot.

[Aaron Miller 335]

Ghostbusters is still in?

[Aaron Miller 335]

gauntlet vs gauntlet!

[Pyrrhic Victory]

So we meet again, item that allows grandpa to chew!

[Covent]

Listening to "Still Alive" by GlaDOS and Jonathan Coulton. Mood much improved, feel capable of voting objectively now.

Snark Loaded!

*Warning*

Future posts tonight will have little to too much snark with no further warnings!

[Covent]

Oh item of obvious IP derivation, you are actually well done, however you are also obviously having a wink at the contest.

I will vote for you this time, and even keep you, but you are definitely getting both in spite of your level of homage rather than because of it.

[Covent]

Again we meet IP item, and again you get the vote. I would like to see what your designer could do when working on a non-derivative idea...

[Covent]

Item, Item, Item. I had been looking forward to seeing you from the beginning of the contest after spotting your name on the items sheet, but after reading you, the honeymoon is over. Can we see other people?

They say never meet your heros and now I know why...

[Covent]

Hint: Stapling two existing magic items together and telling me how cool it is, is not superstar. I will not vote for you.

[The Raven Black]

I find myself upvoting meh items against truly OP items :-(

[The Raven Black]

Confirmed : I am culling the OP this time around

[Covent]

Anndddd... A joke item at this point *Full Picard Face Palm*

I will vote for literally anything else I have seen since the 4th cull over you.

Grrrr.

[The Raven Black]

BTW, items that are laughingly easy to abuse are part of the OP category as far as my voting preferences are concerned ;-)

[The Raven Black]

I will upvote the item that ruins only one type of encounters rather than the one that ruins all of them

[The Raven Black]

Sorry, the item on the left is honestly better IMO. Also, it is mine ;-)

[The Raven Black]

I am all for creating a new magical item. But I feel that creating a whole new kind of mundane item and not much in the way of magical abilities is not the way to RPGSS :-/

[The Raven Black]

Bonus to acrobatics vs Bonus to acrobatics :-)

[The Raven Black]

I am sorry. I have to downvote your item merely because I just do not understand what it is supposed to do :-(

[The Raven Black]

I find several things with you that should make you an obvious downvote. But you are a true masterpiece. An upvote and a keep it is :-)

[The Raven Black]

Your unnecessary restriction will likely prevent you from making superstar. But you still get an upvote and a keep :-)

[The Raven Black]

I strongly dislike you and see you far more often than I would like. But I keep on upvoting you because you are paired with even worse items :-(

[Vadims Hesins]

Seeing these two items side-by-side made me realize that combining them leads to an unexpected effect... that must instantly shift anyone's alignment all the way to Evil, literally akin to killing babies. And there is no way to prevent it.

[The Raven Black]

Why is this Occult item still here ? :-/

[The Raven Black]

Okay. Your persistence has convinced me. Get another upvote. And a keep this time ;-)

[The Raven Black]

I had my doubts at the beginning of your abilities' description. But I was won over by the end of it because that last sentence made you go from OP to excellent. Great job and yet another Keep :-)

[The Raven Black]

Two items that erase a critical aspect of the game balance :-(

I will go with the less unbalancing one :-/

[The Raven Black]

You two guys are still here after all these culls ? o-O

[The Raven Black]

Japanese word vs Japanese word. Hadjime !!!

[The Raven Black]

Workshopped item, honestly far better, and upvoted :-)

[The Raven Black]

I pray to find you faced with an item that deserves the upvote. So far the algorithm god has not answered :-/

[Omnitricks]

Filigree! Filigree!!!

Also is it just me pr are there a significant amount of items with versatile effects?

[The Raven Black]

Another Occult item still in o-O

[frank gori]

I'm going to say it... one of my favorite items has filigree

[Terminalmancer]

I seem to have been surrounded by masks. Masks, masks, and more masks!

Weirdly, they're all at least okay. I guess you don't tend to think about making a mask unless you've been around the hypothetical Pathfinder block at least a couple times.

[frank gori]

Sneaky, sneaky, sneaky took me forever to get that one jokester, well done. Going to down vote you but well done.
