Actually, it's neither. It's "Vote for any girl to be 5/6* Contest Event". Because that's what we are doing, we are voting for the girl we want as a 6*/5*. But people see the "Popularity Contest" and vote for the girl they like the most, not the girl they want released as a 6*.

The only reason this whole thing counts as a Popularity Contest is because they've tagged it as a "Popularity Contest". If they had been 100% clear about it, people would see this for what it actually is: "Vote for the next 6*/5* Contest".


Edit: To put it simply, we were all decieved by the "Popularity Contest". The second they add conditions and rewards, the whole aspect of the contest changes. I'm voting for Yulan because I desperately want her to be made into a 6* or a 5* girl, not because she's my favourite girl. If I hadn't known that the winners would get bride versions, I would never have voted for Yulan. And if I didn't vote for my favourite girl but rather for a different girl that I want made into a 6*/5*, then there are others who would be willing to vote for a different girl than their favourite. Therefore I believe that the results would have been SO very different if everyone had known about all the conditions beforehand.

Good job Jess. Use this style, its better, i guess.
-
Rule #1 - Do not vote for Orchid Wydler, Cactace or Camellia.

• These three girls have already won and recieved their bride versions. They will be released to us even if they don't win this time around.
• By voting for either of these three girls, you are telling Nutaku: "We don't want any new girls, but thank you for offering. Bye now."

Rule #2 - The girl who comes first will be made into a 6* bride. The girls who come in 2nd and 3rd will be made into 5* brides.

• The winner will not turn into a 6* or 5*, but rather, they will make a new 6*/5* girl based on the winner. Regardless of who wins.
• This means that if 2* Mint wins, they'll release a new 6* Mint that is on par with all other 6* girls. But the 2* Mint will not disappear.

Rule #3 - Don't vote for 5* or 6* girls. Do if you want, but please, try not to.

• Simply put, if a 6* or 5* wins, we'll basically just be recieving a new skin for them. But if a lower star wins, we'll recieve that girl as a new high star.

Rule #4 - You will not recieve the girl you vote for.

• This whole popularity contest isn't about rewarding you with the girl you voted for. It's about seeing which girl is the most popular, so that they can remake that girl into a stronger girl. That's why we want you to vote for low star girls, the dream of watching a 2*/3* turn into a 6*/5* is strong within us all.

Hear hear, I haven't voted yet and will not be doing so until I've had at least 4k tickets just cos I find it easier to track how much I've amassed. Still haven't decided who to vote for yet though.

You do not encourage players to vote 6* or 5* character. However the winners in DMM are 6* and 5* character. I humbly ask that do you have an evidence that the japanese players were not satisfied with new 6* and 5* brides?

Indeed, if I had a say, I'd ask people not to vote for 6*/5* girls. The winners of DMM don't really matter, and I never said that anyone was displeased with anything. All I'm saying is that I strongly believe that if people knew exactly how this contest works, they'd likely rather vote for low star girls to get them up to 6*/5* instead of voting for a high star girl and simply getting a different look for her.

Take Orchid Wydler for example, she won and they recieved a 6* Orchid bride. No one is complaining about that, but if people knew that, say, 2* Mint would become a 6* Mint bride and not a 2* Mint bride, then chances are Mint would have gotten more votes. That, plus the whole "I'm going to vote for the best-looking 6* girl that I wish I had" that I'm sure alot of people thought, makes the whole thing very boring as 6* and 5* girls dominate the top spots.

I believe that alot of people would agree that it would be more fun watching a 2*/3*/4* climb up to 6* than see a 6* girl get a new skin.

According to japanese website, once again the 2nd poll winners are 6* character. Japanese has already learned how poll works after the first poll. If its not fun, then it is strange that they still want to vote for 6* character in 2nd poll.

Still surprised Black Baccara is where she is. Some oppai lovers out there.

I like many 2* and 3* BUT I CAN'T USE THEM because the stats and abilities are horrible. The natural 5* and 6* is usable, we don't need a fucking duplicate with 2 ugly BB in one team! That's all. I hope in a future event with only 4* or lower, but this is impossible.

Man, the new 5* or 6* is a NEW character base on the winner, if the 2* is the winner, the STATS + the SKILLS are DIFFERENT! 100% better! Totaly worth for a 6*!!!
