"We brought in people to pay attention from Minds, and those people are going to try to come around and say 'hi' sometimes. More of those people know that this area exists now, and if that instance sinks then the lifeboats are there."
And yet you also said:
"A sizeable contingency of voters didn't show up because they hate this instance."
Those two claims seem difficult to reconcile. If the tournament goal is to genuinely accomplish something tangible, why would the host instance itself still be such a significant barrier to participation?

@Twig@clew.lol @FaggotTourney@tsundere.love >why would the host instance itself still be such a significant barrier to participation? To put it shortly, the only place to host it this year was here on tsundere.love. Some people defederate from here because they cannot handle a few of the people who are here, and as a result they've shut themselves off from the tournament. I did even go out of my way to tell some of those people that they're welcome to participate and vote from alternative instances, and they turned it down.
