I think they mean because it'll likely basically be Nathan or Shoma at this point, so voting for Javi or Keegan wouldn't help toward the Petty Goal. :3

yeah I realised that after I posted the reply  

eta, my post count is inauspicious (towards the petty goal?)  (in Chinese, it basically means die, die, die...)

I'm so thankful for all the wonderful reaction photos in the comments, though. Goldmine.

Oh, it's very real, and Mr Hanyu is already a master of hairspray himself. 

 

Sorry. Pleasant dreams!

 

 I never knew bananas can get you nightmares and now hairspray...

Yes, you can see my vote. I'm not ashamed. XD

I'm pretty sure they couldn't put Yuzuru in, or it would've been a landslide.

(I hope it works.)

 

Thanks! The choices are so random though, seriously, it doesn't make sense.

 

Some responses asked why not include Adam Rippon, but I guess he would win over their golden boy and I guess Keegan is skating for Canada now so he's in there to pretend that they're giving diverse choices (though I really liked what I saw of Keegan's so he'd be my choice).

 

Now, let's see how many votes they actually get now that they decided to exclude Yuzu. Didn't Yuzu get like at least 10K for one poll once? (Or maybe my memory is playing tricks on me.)

Bad publicity is still good publicity. Their followers went up. I guess the trend now is being gossipy and creating chaos. I'm actually not surprised. 

 

I guess? But if they're going for broke anyway, why don't they just include Yuzu and incite a Twitter fanwar between Nathan and Yuzu fans and get those retweets and votes? But the winner would have already been decided anyway I guess, and so that's why they included Shoma with a perhaps similar league of recognition and fandom to do that voting war instead, and I see it's working somewhat with the close gap.

 

Well, at the end of the day, it's just one network and twitter anyway.

My 5 cents abt polls - always wins the biggest fandom or fandom that actually knew abt poll xD. So I really can't directly blame USA stans or Nate's fans that they vote for Nate. It was the same story when poll included Yuzu - obviously, he has the biggest fandom in the male FS field RN.

But there is one major detail - all of Yuzuru's SP was actually short PROGRAM with the story, flow, and artistism. I'm really sorry, Nate's SP is better than his FP, but to the end of the season, it's become just meh. Sorry not sorry.

Usually I laugh at these polls because the winner is always clear (Yuzu) and kind of pointless so let them have their poll lmao

 

(I voted for Keegan, too)

[Neenah]

Not having Chopin in the poll is unimportant since it does not need any validation, everyone knows it is the best without polls or voting. What really annoys me is that there is no Boyang, really? He had an amazing short program and also scored really high, why is he always ignored 

[Sammie]

I didn’t bother voting 

 They just want to retweets and likes.

they are getting sooooo much backlash its hilarious. even more hilarious to see them just gliding past all said backlash. 

i just cant with IN

Subtlety is not their strength 

[katonice]

I wasn't expecting them to include Yuzu either, but hafta say Icenetwork is brave 

 

Disappointed Boyang is not included. It was amazing how his performance really transformed toward the latter half off the season. 

 

I'm curious how the poll's going... But I guess to do so I really have to cast a vote...

Nate is edging out shoma who was ahead earlier.  I could see if they wanted NEW programs...but Keegan's is a repeat so there's nothing else to say aside from the fact that their agenda is clear.  But I guess I can understand the desperation. Skating in the US is still in the toilet. In an olympic year Stars on Ice doesn't even sell out arenas.  But stuff like this is not going to make skating anymore popular here. Meanwhile Yuzuru will always be Yuzuru and omitting him altogether just shows who really rules the roost.

Honestly, if I were IN, I'd probably follow up with "Wow, we're getting so much feedback to our super awesome poll, you guys are awesome, keep voting everyone!"

You have to show commitment to your BS
