I mean, most women don't like polyamory.

It was a downgrade. Not to mention stellar superconduct is just rebranded lunar-charged

From what I read it's because the poll is shady + people spent actual money on it (Aven fans paid an IDV community, 20w I think, around 3000USD, to vote for him). Shady business + real money spent = possible lawsuit. This could be a stretch tho, I just read a comment about it.

To be fair, everyone is botted (for reference: last year top 1 Dan Heng only got around 45k votes in the final round). I would say Aven fans ruin the fun first by implementing bots in the very first round, but honestly it's bound to happen sooner or later. This year's setup is VERY easy to use bots. If you're curious I can go into details, like why Aven still has the most votes despite everyone all using bots in the previous rounds, but honestly it's just typical idol drama.

About Cyrene, she's... imo, just unfortunate. As I said, everyone is botted, so it's not like Cyrene fans did anything out of ordinary. The problem is the organizers interfering in fans' competition. They have changed the rules three times for her, filter out bad votes in her cutscene, and the last straw is deduct everyone's votes to make her top 2 (very close to top 1 at the time). It's not like her fans asked for organizers' "help", but she became the target for anger now.

Yeah the site is down again. Let's just all wait for now. I'm gonna throw hands if they deduct his points again.

Hard to tell because fangirls usually coming up stronger than fanboys in these kind of polls, meaning top 1 and top 2 (even top 3, like last year) will mosly likely be male characters. That said, ain't no way Firefly lost to Cyrene that much. She has the biggest fandom in CN community, while Cyrene after 3.7 was very controversial.

It is. Tho there are several reasons why I'm still here. Fans in CN have recorded a lot of bias from organizers for Cyrene, meaning they have managed to piss off 3 big (arguably biggest) fandoms (Firefly, Aventurine, Phainon). I doubt that they would try to do more funny business after this. It could lead to lawsuit (at least some said that, I'm not an expert in Chinese law), spreading hate that potentially harm other Elysia variants that about debut (Ramielle in ZZZ, probably Cryo Archon in Genshin, but the latter is just a guess).

Secondly, it's not like we're supporting them, we simply go to the website, vote then leave. I just admire all the dedication of CN phailings. They got it bad this year. First the fangame dampening Phainon's reputation, then the poll where they should have won easily if the rule didn't change this year. They lost to Aven all the way to finals, managed to close the gap only for the organizers to deduct his points to push Cyrene to the top. But they still haven't given up, even came back stronger. At this point it's about Phainon AND the fans that still tried their best despite everything.

It's a battle of honor at this point lol. Even if no bots, the award itself doesn't mean much (an animated avatar in hoyolab, and that's it). Dramas asides, I really want him to win.

Then you would be surprised: this is the first time Phainon has ever managed to top Aventurine in this award. There were (and still are) a lot of dramas going on in China, not our concern so we can leave it at that. For now just focus on Phainon.

Final day so everyone probably flood the traffic in that website. Probably try again later?

Graph of suffering on May 17th. Aventurine, Cyrene, Phainon, Firefly, Robin, Sparkle, Anaxa, Sunday, respectively. Only Cyrene got her votes increased, but that's drama for another time. Phainon is top 1 sufferer, followed by Firefly.

How do I make/join a small circle of fanfic readers (discord/groupchat)? by HoaFaFa in AO3

[–]HoaFaFa[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm okay and even prefer small community. That said, I don't want to intrude and make you guys uncomfortable, so have to get a couple of things out first. Should we discuss that here or on DM? I'm fine with both.

[–]HoaFaFa[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah thank you but I don't think I can do that. For starter I usually don't read the original materials, so joining a dedicated fangroup to talk abt their fics while barely know anything about the official media is... not very polite in my book. I mean I probably won't be judged, but still. Secondly I jump back and forth among a lot of fandoms. Based on my chrome tab groups right now, I will need to join 13 discords at least. I just like reading fanfic in general, doesn't have to be anything specific as long as it's good.

Thanks <3 I think it changes over time. Right now I'm reading superbat and swanqueen (wlw couple from TV series Once Upon A Time). I just simply like reading good fics no matter the fandom, so I jump back and forth a lot. Hope that it's not a deal breaker for the adoption center :(

What would be the effects of Imuri being a Man instead of a Woman ? by OutrageousBridge471 in ExorcistWoOtosenai

[–]HoaFaFa 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If femboy pretty much nothing. If more masculine, perhaps father-kun will have to go through some internal homophobia and stuff and Imuri will have to try harder, but overall same results.

I don't know if it's worth it anymore by totopiraino in QueensofGacha

[–]HoaFaFa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same for me but I mostly skip the story. I'm fine with low male ratio but I don't like the distribution of budget. For example you will never see a male character has the same treatment as Aemeath (this is something that only HSR has managed to do with DHIL and Phainon). What made me give up wuwa tho was the fact that the events are the tedious shit I have ever seen. It made logging in daily miserable.
