@verbal-d, I am sorry that you got confused and did not understand what I mean, I am not referring to upvotes, I am referring to votes in the poll that have nothing to do with the interactions of the publications in hive. For example: What's the use of having 70 votes in a poll when that same publication has 40 views in hive, and the other 30 views where are they? they don't see the video? they don't see the videos of others? the public votes are just inflated numbers that don't interact with the vibes community? it's not the first time it happens, I'm sure you have seen this pattern happen more than once.

It's a good question, thanks for the explanation, votes aren't solely based on the views of only the Hive Post, because entries are being crossed posted on the Web2 platforms, and some votes are coming in from newly created Hive accounts from the onboarding process and they saw the entry on tiktok, youtube, X twitter, then they make the required Hive account and vote for the entry on Hive for the Community Voting poll, but they didn't view the Hive Post that had also the video or link there because they viewed it somewhere else. And we are working behind the scenes to make the competition better, more fair, reduce any possible ways for manipulation and so forth. The winners who have won so far up until now, have been definitely deserving and worthy, and the judging process will only get better with more effort and care.
