Saax vs Mel, votes had Mel, 4-2, and surprisingly enough Saax won the battle with 2 Oldin and Kiwi, in close battles mods will likely sway in your forever, not cuz you did better but because even mods have congintive bias. You refuse to see this Saax because you benefit from those high vp votes. Saax you proposed a straw man fallacy, the argument you and oldin have, that new members are just “noobs that think they’re too good to lose”, is just an irrelevant way to sound condescending and boost your ego, who cares if people think they’re too good to lose, that’s not yours or the mods problem, but when a “noob”/ new member wins a battle 3-1 and 4-2 but still ends up losing the battle, yes that is a problem that needs to be looked at.

You could say new members have an overconfidence bias which is true, they enjoy what they write, and personally like their material and style, so in battles yes they will favour their own material unless they clearly got destroyed, but nearly everyone has an overconfidence bias, it’s not a bad thing, and no they don’t think they’re too good to lose.
