Bias voting?

I support this but it would be hard to incorporate to SOTW. At first we would have to drop the text rule and that would make it easier to enter a riped signature. But we could change it so you must include a text saying for example "GFXVoid SOTW 248" in your entry. The submitting would also be a problem, if they're posted in an entry thread everyone may see who submitted which signature and the whole anonymity idea would be lost. And if they were to be sent to me via pm's it would only be messy for me to keep track on all the entries. But I could write them down in a document after I've received each of the entries. Could work.

Then we have the KOTH, same problem as the previous, keeping track of all the entries. Also since no names will be displayed you wouldn't know who is the king till he lost. The last thing might not be a problem tho, but since almost all of the entries are premades most of the members already know who made that specific signature. So the anonymity would be made then.

For other battles it wouldn't be any problems with no names for the poll and on the art pieces.

That's my thoughts.

I think your idea for SOTW would work really well. I don't think KOTH needs to be anonymous, that's just too much work for you since the entries would be non-stop and like you said most people use stuff they've already shown on the site. :/

I haven't really seen any bias, if anything just a bias towards certain styles, but I haven't been here long. But I'm sure some does exist, I've never heard of any human voting that didn't have certain biases, so best to do what you can to get rid of it. =D
