Haar's situation was already talked about but yeah he was so obviously bot-voted in the first round (which should have just disqualified him), and now he's conveniently safe to go to the finals, not to mention the convenient time extensions for rounds despite there being just as many people voting as there was for the last week of Part 1...it was extended specifically for Haar and his bots. The initial results for the top three of Part 2 weren't unsurprising; they were unexpected, so bots conveniently happened. Not to mention the other couple things I noticed, such as Geoffrey and Danved vanishing despite having more votes than Heather, yet Heather got to move on. This whole Part 2 section has been a sham, none of it sits right and there's been no signs of integrity. So, I'm out, I'm not continuingĀ on with a shady contest.

Bots don't have the power to artificially extend the voting period unless the OP is the one with bots which seems highly unlikely or else Edward would have made it instead of being eliminated.Ā Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The guy is one of the most popular characters. Tbh you just sound salty that your favorite character didn't make the cut. This has nothing even do with bots, because they wouldn't even be able to vote in the poll. Why would anyone even go out of there way to do something sketchy like this anyways? This is just a little popularity for fun. It's not like it's a CYL poll. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh fudge off, there have been plenty of contests like this in the past and not once have I ever put this much stock into a favorite not making the cut. This is entirely about cheating, which has 100% happened here, so fudge off with your dismissive bull. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That only happened in one round and Haar still had more votes than the others before bots happened. With or without bots, Haar would still make it.Ā Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The results are what they would've been whether there was cheating or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
null Posted July 16, 2020 Share Posted July 16, 2020 Had to change my vote to Lucia. Nephenee and Brom are great, but I like Lucia's design and personality a bit better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brom's better than Nephenee and Lucia in FE10, change my mind! /s Oh well, Brom had a good run considering that he's not that popular. Not sure who I'm gonna side with in part 3 yet!

Armor knights in general are pointless to use when you have better mounted units readily available. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SSbardock84 Posted July 21, 2020 Author Share Posted July 21, 2020 Poll is updated and Part III votings have begun. I'm voting for Mia. My guesses are that Ike, Mia, and Shinon will be the top three. But we'll see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

null Posted July 21, 2020 Share Posted July 21, 2020 Oof, this is tough between Soren and Titania. I really like Titania, but Soren has the better backstory. Hm. Yeah, Soren for now. That may change though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whase Posted July 21, 2020 Share Posted July 21, 2020 Mia is my number 2 favorite character in all of Fire Emblem, hope she at least makes the top 3 here. Looking at the current votes though, I'm hoping the Ike stans find this because it would still be sad if he didn't move forward as well.

Anacybele Posted July 21, 2020 Share Posted July 21, 2020 How is Ike not curbstomping this? He's supposed to be massively popular. Yet someone more random like Mia is getting most of the votes instead. I'm really shocked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because Mia has an actual personality. /s Seriously though, I like Ike's story, but his actual personality is pretty dry. Mia's got a bit more spunk and character, even if she isn't as prominently featured. That, and she's a cute female character with a sword. That automatically gives her an edge (haha) up on Ike.

Strange, I've yet to see much personality on her at all. Whereas Ike has so much character and development and is unique among main characters in the series for not being of royal or noble birth. He had to earn his status a Lord through his deeds instead which just means WAY more than simply being born with said status. Just because Ike is blunt and stoic doesn't mean he lacks personality. Meanwhile Mia? All she is to me is "spar with me! Where's my rival?" and nothing else. I don't even think she has a cute design. There are many prettier females in this series. Even in Tellius. Mia to me is actually one of the few badly written/designed Tellius characters. Ike's design, well, he's a cool looking attractive guy. Shouldn't that give him some points? But this is my opinion, and you have yours. And it's still a fact that Ike is mega popular. Edited July 22, 2020 by Anacybele Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His backstory is actually one of my favorites next to Dimitri's or Lucina's. Tellius is amazing overall. Another thing about Mia...part of her character is also that she bucks the stereotype of men being the only ones who belong on the battlefield. That increases her appeal as well. Honestly, I'm not a huge Mia fan myself. The reasons I gave are just typically why characters like her are popular. I like Lucia better actually.

She's got spunk and character and is cute. And she's hilarious. Her insults are the best. "YOU SPINELESS SEA CUCUMBER!" lol She's one of my favorite girls in this series. Yet nobody cares about her much. She's never talked about. Edited July 22, 2020 by Anacybele Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only a few short hair styles ever appeal to me for them. Marcia's hair is still short in RD, but it got long enough to look alright. Either way though, she's cute to some degree.
