Quote:Ozymandias pretty much confirmed that you guys should only be looking at people who were active for an entire stretch of a month, so there's that. Thank you for confirming.

I did no such thing. Not even close. At no point did I ever confirm or deny that a person has to be here for the entire month or 50% of the month or 33% of the month to be eligible for SOTM. Nor did I even hint as much.

What I did confirm was that being here for 16 days out of 30 means you were here for 47% of the month. That's all. If you want to make a wild leap that's fine but please don't attribute the conclusions you draw from those leaps to me when I did nothing to push you in that direction.

Thank you.

You are on the staff and you just took the time to point out that a person wasn't even here for half of the month. You did more than hint, sir. You pretty much confirmed you guys are looking at longevity through a month's time above what actually was accomplished by a solo party at any point within that time.

Again, I confirmed no such thing. I can't speak to what guys look at when making their votes. I can tell you what it appears they look at when making their votes, in this case it appears they are looking at the scope of the entire month. I can also tell you what I look at which is not that. I also take into account other things thing non staff are not privy to such as help behind the scenes with judging or match writing as well as other things.

There is no written rule as to the scope of what is to be look at when making a vote and ultimately Shane is the one to decide based on the votes and supporting evidence provided.
