7th Annual MOST IDM Tournament - Qualification Round

Fantastic entries this year!

Should Lush/Lushness and the two eye contact ones be combined when final tally is made?

Should Lush/Lushness and the two eye contact ones be combined when final tally is made?

I thought about it, but I think that, given how the phrasing has always been a key part of IDM contenders, it's best to treat each unique phrase as a unique entry.

If I suspected that similar entries were made for the purpose of undervaluing a contender, then I'd call foul play, and figure out some way to make up for that. However, Lush and Lushness are totally distinct topics (clearly). Also, one of the eye topics was a rephrasing of the other, so I'm considering that an unforced error.

Feel like it's going to be TIGHT !!!

fantastic effort 10/10 - homeless ppl with 808s fucking lol

voted and prouded

SPISH pulls ahead!

according to the votes, that's the least IDM thing one could do

I hope Ulillillia wins this year! If for no other reason than since I could tell him via a comment on one of his Platform Masters YouTube video updates and he would respond (immediately) with something like "parsing error: undefined command."

The Stoya one should be changed to "Autechre making a conversation about having sex with Stoya stop by playing an unreleased version of Bike"

It's shorter and sounds more clear and better that way. It's also a thing that really happened.

Of the suggested most IDM topics. I think there was a least IDM competition a while back, and the winner was Nascar, which was pretty awesome.

I try to balance correcting/interpreting suggestions with preserving the original phrasing. The original phrasing is usually an important part of the topic, and lots of the suggested topics have a nice ring to them. When possible, I try to keep that. I'll only change the phrasing if there was a spelling error or other error that is not important to the ring of the topic, or if someone just posts a picture and says "THIS".

Ah shit, I don't think anyone nominated this.

Man, the Slime Mold fans were so passionate last year. It looks as if its following has dwindled this year

Here's a huge one in someone's bathroom.

And here's an oldy but goody of a slime mold replicating the Tokyo Rail-way system.

Here's a channel devoted to Slime Mold videos.

what is 100% peanut allergy birth rate lactation porn ?

Because that's business as usual here at WATMM? At least, I can not remember doing something else around here. It's like oxygen, to me. I can only speak for myself though. And what my personal experience is of what it is like to work day in day out at WATMM corp.

Great effort, I'm backing the MRX basketball.gif, been feeling nostalgic about this place recently and that sums it all up.

Very glad to see Pyongyang Racer performing so well! I hope Homeless People with 808's does well too!

EDIT: and yes; thanks Root5 for your efforts!

Dammit. I forgot to nominate hats that don't make you look like a cowboy.

Scheduled to end on the 15th. I'm keeping track of the number of votes, and I may accelerate the process again.

I interpret it as 100% of the population being born allergic to peanuts, as a hypothetical situation.

I think I'll skip to the next step tomorrow (one day earlier than planned). Make you final qualification votes in the next 20ish hours, WATMM.

I have faith in you, bloodgasm.
