Thank you! I would not want to see if any friends entered if I were running a contest.

I&;m almost certain that the 1, 3, and 5 were meant to be how many votes you allotted to that HA, but I think it is currently broken. Tried selecting 3 on one but it only counted as one vote 😔
Either the "stacked" voting option itself is broken, or we were allowed 5 votes not stacked from the beginning and the way it is shown is just not clear / broken. 🤷

I notice that quite some things aren't really working, but nothing seems to be done about it (reports made both in announcement feedback and bugs about 2 months ago), which is a bit what I feared. Creator approval doesn't work, prize distribution doesn't always work (I gave 5 prizes for top 5, and only 4 were awarded, despite being enough participants), page 2 of completed contests is broken, how winners are determined when tied isn't clear (random?), wording on voting isn't clear (always stays 1 vote), etc. :/

I do really love the new feature, but having that 5th prize disappear, makes me a bit fearful of creating a new contest myself.

I figured as much. Thank you! :) Yes. It was a contest that I was hosting. I don't remember which one, but it was anonymous (I've only hosted 1 contest that wasn't). Also, it was set to Creator Only voting, which is one of the reasons why I started doing Public voting. I've only seen the glitch once, so you're probably safe. ;)

We always have the same issues on here, lol .. and thanks for the info!

I'll have a new contest up in less than 12 hours (hopefully) Get everyone psyched! Wow, you're right! I've heard others talking about most of those issues. I have a few of them myself, but I've learned to adapt somehow. Although it would be much better if those issues were fixed, because the item prizes for my most current contest are all screwed up.

Thanks again. You've been very helpful.

Just to let you know I just created a contest. LOL, probably my only one. I just wanted to see how it would go.

Yeah everything's just a little bit broken with kumos right now lol. I think it's only Keith working on it right? And with other things also needing fixing I think it's all going to take a while :x

Ok, So I just made a contest. The spacing is waaay off compared to how it was in the preview. If you find it hard to read I can sMail it to you in the proper format. Sorry guys.. I wish I could fix it. Also, I put my avatar in the contest. You'll see it on the entries.

Is there any way to edit the contest blurb? I mean, I specified ORIGINAL costumes but so far I've gotten one original, one Storm and one Superman. I hate to disqualify people because they didn't understand my instructions. Maybe I just wasn't specific enough...

That would be a good idea. I wanted people to use their imaginations and come up with something new.

Just in case anyone wants to enter my contest, please let me clarify that I want ORIGINAL heroes. Don't just copy someone from Marvel or DC. Choose a power that you'd like to have and run with it.

Edit: I should also specify that the POWER does not have to be original. If you want to be invisible or intangible or have telekinesis or elemental powers, go for it.

I wanted to ping both groups in case anyone else enjoys making HAs!

ATM I'm in one of Dawnifer's contest (I Want to Play a Game) and get some tie-breaker points for anyone who joins via my "referral" so if anyone joins that contest please let me know so I can tell her!

Heheh, this is definitely a learning experience for me. Next time I'm going to use the rules option and absolutely specify what I want. People don't seem to be reading my intro at all.
