In the same vein, 6* in 2nd/3rd place will make her new version have worse rarity than original. Downgrade!

Because this is a "Popularity Contest Event" not the "Vote for 2-4* to be 5/6* Contest Event".People will vote based on whoever they like/want, not to make 2-4* relevant in the game. A 2-4* having a 5/6* alt is no different than a 6* having a 5/6* alt since both will be a completely different units than the original whether they get an upgraded/downgraded in their rarity or not!.

So why have a 6* get another 6* or downgrade it to 5* if there are 2-4* who could get higher rarity alt regardless of ranking you ask? Simple

Because this is a "Popularity Contest Event" not the "Vote for 2-4* to be 5/6* Contest Event".

You can't blame people for voting for their waifu(which happens to be BB, currently looking at the results), nor you can't force them to vote for someone else. Instead, you can blame Nutaku for allowing 5/6*'s to participate in the contest if your favorite 2-4* are losing.

Besides, we will get 1 new 6* and 2 new 5* regardless of who wins the contest.

Unless the previous DMM winners win again. Then we'd just get what they got. And that's boring

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.
