Do you think this competition is fair? Bitcointalk Community Awards 2021

I think it's time to boycott this dishonest contest and starting to deleting your votes

Icopress began a tricky procedure to change the conditions of the competition

changing conditions of competition on the go is a pure cheating

all conditions of the competition must be prescribed in advance and strictly followed


This is not a competition - this is a circus

Bullshit!
If there's significant need to change the rules because overally, the voting process was exploited, changing the rules is not only possible, it is recommended. 
In that case, giving out Merit by some of the nominees was an incentive for Merit grabbers to nominate exactly those members giving out Merit if you nominate them since it's visible who is distributing Merit if you nominate them. That's a clear abuse because we would have another result if no Merits were given.
It's totally normal to consider changing the rules and ask the community.

However:

The community decides and not a BSV troll because it's a community award competition, not a BSV troll competition!

This is not a competition - this is a circus

I voted and went my way and I remember I recieved some merits for voting.
In my own perception, I thought that the reason for the merit is to encourage PARTICIPATION. But when contestants were the ones giving the merits, it made people to start voting for them. When I looked at the whole thing it made me understand that there are some MERIT SOURCES who do not exhaust their monthly merit allocations, but because of the voting, they were able to exhaust their allocation  it is a good thing that for once they could exhaust their allocation.
The voting should stand because wherever there is an election, there is always a way to influence the voters(that is the politics in elections).

In all fairness, life itself isn't fair. We should always expect that anything done by humans is mixed with subjectivity. We can't get 100% objective compliance. I quiet agree with what the OP pointed out even though @icopress tried on their path to institute certain criteria for voting like rank level and acquired merit within the voting time. We had similar accusation of nominees influencing voting with merit splashed on voters in the 2020 award too. Now, it's obvious that in the next award no meriting of votes should be among the new set of rules. I also support it to be moved to a section where signature isn't displayed. Make it as less attractive for signature and merit hunters, let's see how it works out. This way, those voting will be doing that purely out of commitment and not to increase post count or hunt for merit.

The only way merit should be allowed would be after the results have been announced.
