Why the Vote Gods Hate Us: A Theory So by now we've all seen how capricious the voting booth can be, with mood swings more befitting a Greek god than a theme-conscious jury (if we have even that). I think the key is that the booth is over-saturated. This is a gown SYS, and we have a lot of gowns available to us. A lot of them. For each ten or so gowns presented to us by Glu there are only maybe one or two theme-specific, I-need-to-buy-this-50kstar-item-to-survive niche items. Home on the Range? That one cowgirl hat hair, or the k-star stand-in. Mellow yellow? Dye or die. Flower Power had that one combination of items that worked (you know the one, with the flare pants and the K&K summer top dyed monochrome), and to me deviating from it would mean giving up my T5 spot.
But gowns are plentiful -- and that means, without a strong theme to standardize judgment, we're going to be at the mercy of individual tastes. Some people are purists who vote in the spirit of the theme (like me, there's nothing wrong with that). Others are going to take this literally and vote for gold. Others still will be drawn like magpies to shiny things, which means sparkly gowns and sparklers and a mess of glittery jewelry. Even worse, with diamonds available in voting booths people will vote quickly. And quick voters are inattentive voters, which means they may miss-click. Even worse, some people will vote only for those on the left-hand side or right-hand side to get to rewards faster. Add all that up, and you get a mess of a voting booth.
@AmyMimi@buriteri yes, it’s not funny have any kind of bugs. But omg spiders??? I saw ONE today and called my cats to catch it 🙈 their are my super heroes 😼

@AYewKKH Girrrlll, when you said “Dye or Die” I was like

Sorry. But it seems this forum regularly forget that not every player has been playing for years. The wedding dress earnable happened not too long ago and shortly after it there was a yellow SYS. Makes perfect sense for a new doll to reuse the dyed yellow dress considering other than this week and the wedding the last few SYS’s and events have been casual. Also those people are likely scoring in the late 20’s/early 30’s just like most people do when they first start the game they really aren’t a threat to you or your score. Just because you think somebodies outfit is tacky doesn’t mean they are a ticket buyer...... they could actually have really great taste and just be limited by not having had collected many clothing pieces yet

Hi. I understand what you mean and where you’re coming from. I definitely didn’t mean for my post to offend or mean any harm. I definitely understand that we all start from somewhere and while I didn’t mean to offend newer players, my post with that picture was distasteful. I’m sorry. I’ve corrected the post.
I was able to finally break 50 this SYS! It's not a 60, but the voters haven't been very kind to me this time round so i'm just going to count my blessings as they come☺
She apologized. She edited her post. Now, can we all not go at each other throats on the form please? If you wanted to target her specifically, message her dm and explain to her why it was wrong and why it offended you. There's no need to drag people publicly, the majority of us I believe are adults, or at a age where open conversations are more important than drama. Calling out is fine, if it's to educate and critique. Not shading. And no, its not just for her, I've noticed this type of thing happening all the time to many people. And I've participated in it, and I feel bad about publicly shaming someone and I've even been on the other side too.

I’m shook the doll on the left was popular vote, I didn’t screenshot the next one but it was the same reindeer doll against another gown and the gown wasn’t popular vote. But also doll on the right you’re slaying it!
Why the drama always happens when I’m asleep? Do you just know that peacemaker went to sleep? I left at 22nd page all good and woke up to fire in the building. 🙃

@umakkh98 👏👏👏👏 Well said.... It’s clear to see there’s some people on here that have forgotten where they came from and forget some are only on their 1st year or 1st month of playing the game and quick to judge on their appearances. 🤦🏼♀️
Well that’s annoying 🙃 One TB in my group but this SYS hasn’t been too terrible so far. Hopefully I can get top five, if only for the dyes and kstars. The dress would be a bonus 😊
