Competition Winner Bias

[Daltron]

A few people have commented in client now how they are always seeing the same names pop up when competition winners are announced.

For general discussion do you think:

(I) there is unfair bias in winner selection for staff favourites or
(II) do you think these people that continuously win competitions are just in an elite pool of people who create top noch entries to various things or
(III) is it a mix of both?

Thoughts?

(III) is it a mix of both (I 70% and II 30%).

A certain name wins every competition without fail, yet they seem not the type who would when it comes to it in-client. I think staff deliberately keep away from people they interact with in client to show that they're not being biased.

Is that the Hawaii person or someone else? I swear he has won every competition since P2 and others took over maybe even before that. I see a lot of familiar names repeatedly but not sure who else has won everything

there will always be this paranoia about there being staff favourites, i don't believe there is such a thing but i can understand why anyone would believe there was. but back on the UK i remember the likes of Screwz and JammieDodgers winning almost every competition without fail, maybe they were the only ones that entered?

Jake used to always win competitions, Not sure about now. But I've noticed this in the past. They should not allow the same people to monopoly them, it's unfair.
