Competition Winner Bias

[FlyingJesus]

I won Funky Friday for 50 credits in 2003

Well if somebody is winning the same type of competition over and over, it generally means they are good at that specific topic. Most people won't just create a winning room then never win again. Same with writing etc.

I guess if the competition is to create a fantastic room you have to have the credits to buy the furni you're gonna need. So I assume there are lots of great room builders out there who can never win because they don't have the money. I suppose that's a form of favouritism in itself?

(II) I don't believe that this is due to staff bias, that doesn't seem to happen as much with the current staff compared to Habbo UK etc. I think the reason you get the same people winning over and over is that they are a bit addicted, and will put a lot of time into their entries.

Habbo UK never had biased judging IMO, the winners were normally really good and had much higher standards than the winners today. I'm sure many others will agree with this.

I would agree with this...

But Jake and Beth used to be so far up Ludus' bum they'd win if they'd enter or not.

Pretty sure Ludus also gave them a twilight trophy for no reason simply because they couldn't find anyone selling one for their casino... Not sure about the truth of that though.

Yeah maybe ludus a little, but sometimes he was legit. He was really annoying but he was probably the only person to be so casual and not avoid things. He argued and hated me for a long time and still gave me prizes truthfully.

Lol ludus made me sell my collection of Moodi Machines when he told me (well, in a room I was in) that loads more would be released. That never happened..

As for competition winners, maybe the people who win again and again just submit good entries. And maybe they don't have many other entries to even choose from?
