As mentioned earlier, we will be using the Dowdall system to resolve votes. Anyone who has completed all 20 games in any one of the last three seasonals (Season XLII onward) is eligible to vote. Please order all the templates as per your preference (1 is most preferred, 4 is least). If you don't list all of the templates, your vote will be ignored. Also include a valid link to your ladder team's games page. Make sure to link the ladder games page not the team page, as this makes it easier to verify that 20 games were played.

Voting will close on Monday, July 26th, 2021.
All votes will be made public after the voting closes.
Votes can be submitted by sending a Warzone Mail to this account. Do not edit your message after the deadline or it may be ignored.

Thanks for pointing that out. The template that was chosen is Black Sea. The link was a mistake in copy/paste and has now been fixed. Sorry for any confusion.

Up.
You can still vote.

There is one day left to vote for the next seasonal template!

A big thanks to everyone who voted. We used the Dowdall system to resolve votes. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Borda_count#Dowdall_system_(Nauru)

The next seasonal template will be Númenor (https://www.warzone.com/MultiPlayer?GameID=27214592) Númenor got off to a quick start in the voting and never looked back, winning comfortably with nearly half the first place votes. Malvia was the most common second choice, but that wasn't even enough for second, as Laketown pulled in enough first place votes to offset its many last place votes to squeeze ahead of the perennial runner-up.

If your vote appears to have been counted incorrectly or if it wasn't counted and you think it should have been, please let us know by posting in this thread in the next 24 hours. You can view all the votes here - https://bit.ly/3hHNxA5

For anybody looking to prepare a little bit for the seasonal, we did a stream on this template just last weekend! There were loads of great players participating.

You can find the stream back here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KuGACkK46CE
and the tournament can be found here: https://www.warzone.com/MultiPlayer/Tournament?ID=44119

Thanks for the links Min :)

Can we purge inactive people before making games each season? Why make games for someone who hasn't been online in a month?
