THE TRUSTWORTHY SHIRTS TOURNAMENT

I was intrigued by the original "who would you trust more?" poll by @the-unflappablewolf, attached for posterity.

I was curious to know whether this result was an indicator that Star Trek imbued the most trustworthiness, so I did a survey. I've turned the responses into a 32-team tournament, with the top responses from the survey randomised into pairs for round 1. Winners will use votes from both Mastodon and Tumblr, summarised here: https://cassolotl.tumblr.com/post/809931792568188928/shirt-tournament

@cassolotl I liked the tournament a lot! I have one question though. Could you elaborate on what the total percentage in the plot means?
@phoenixira Sure! So, A is the sum of the total votes in only the polls that that thing was in, and B is the votes that the thing actually got in those polls. The percentage is B divided by A.
@cassolotl oh wow! Interesting that Sailor Moon got more votes overall but didn't win!
@Bikil Yeah, the graph makes Sailor Moon look really strikingly out of place, doesn't it!
@cassolotl @Bikil I presume that's mostly down to crushing Harry Potter in round 1?
@cassolotl putting Sesame Street up against Me Rogers in the first draw was unfair!

@djfiander @cassolotl

I really think the kids shows should have been in an entirely different bracket from the scifi ones.

@djfiander There were several really tough polls even in the first round, for sure!
@cassolotl And I immediately regretted my vote right after I cast it!
@cassolotl ooo i love the idea of polls combining results from tumblr and fedi. seems like a nice way to bring more people here hehehe
@coracinho Plus it would have been way more work, because the polls after round 1 would have been very different - we might have ended up with a totally different final! Which would actually also have been very interesting. :D
@cassolotl C'mon Reading Rainbow! LeVar Burton ftw. He played my favorite character on STNG, too.
@cass I've never seen it but he does seem like a good egg! :)
