Not that I'm dissing the other two contests, but point is, I like Saimoe's restrictions. It's complex, and takes time and effort to actually vote, compared to other contests where It's just vote and forget about it the next 24hrs. Or random people surfing the web come across ISML...and vote within the span of thirty seconds, only to never return again. And I think this is the main reason why Saimoe preferance is so much different than everyone else.

The closer matches thing as an illusion caused by 3/4-way matches. If you only look at the votes recived by the top 2 in each match, there are still lots of huge blowouts. Not always by top tiers either. In H3, Yomi got more than twice as many votes as anybody else in the group. Only looking at the top two, Yomi broke 70%. C07, Nogizaka Mika nearly tripled anyone else in her group. Mika isn't close to being top tier. By the time we're down to 1 on 1 matches, almost all of the fodder weak enough to get 70-30'd have been eliminated. Considering Tacos vs Chiaki was a 70-30 match, imagine Tacos vs Futami Eriko.

And in Hina case it wasn't a sudden small surge of popularity. It was cause by a one semester long series, in the middle of the contenst that had lot's of Hina.

Well if anyone wants here is a download for the three files I made related to Saimoe, in openoffice format. They're the Manga main tournament bracket; translated list of all girls in anime saimoe prelims and their results in the same, sorted by series; and the same as the previous but with only the characters in the main tournament.
