In PULSEpx Quests, winners are primarily determined through public voting, unless stated otherwise. Our unique voting process involves a comparative system where each voter chooses their favorite photo from a pair presented to them.
Understanding Our Voting System:
- Comparative Voting: This method pairs two photos for a direct comparison, making it easier to determine the rankings of photos with fewer votes. This approach not only ensures fairness but also allows users to focus more on capturing great photos and participating in Quests.
- Fair Exposure for All Entries: Our sophisticated algorithms are designed to display each photo a similar number of times across all entries in a Quest. This ensures that every photo receives a fair opportunity to be seen and voted on.
- Ranking Adjustments: A photo’s ranking within a Quest will either rise or fall depending on whether it receives votes in these comparisons. Photos are matched for voting with others of a similar rank to maintain competitive fairness.
No Pay-to-Win Features:
- Pure Skill Competition: There are no mechanisms such as ‘pay to win’ boosts or bonuses. The key to success in our Quests lies in submitting high-quality photography that resonates with voters—a true test of your photographic skill.
By participating in PULSEpx’s Quests, you engage in a fair and transparent competition where every photographer has an equal chance to win based on the merit of their work.
