Welcome back to Rarepair Rumble! We are finally entering round 2, which means 64 ships out of our initial 128 have left the competition.
Round 2 will be divided into two parts: 2AB and 2CD (the letters stand for different blocks of the tournament table).
The voting will go as usual with one alteration - I added a third voting option - “I don’t want to vote for either of these ships. A friend on on Discord pointed out that although you can skip the pairs you don’t care about or don’t like, the power of the binary choice makes it hard to skip them, getting the person stuck on making a choice. And it does make sense - I definitely feel that I want to make a choice whenever I’m presented with it, even if I don’t have an opinion on the subject matter.
The extra option also gives me some statistics on which ship pairs people don’t want to vote for.
Here’s an example of a ship pair with three possible answers:
Everything else will be done as usual.

You can see this round’s competing ships under cut. This time, there aren’t any ships I would consider problematic, however some of the ships have been the subject of heated debates.
The ships in question are Ruren (Runaan x Soren) and Calren (Callum x Soren). I don’t see these ships as problematic, but I respect people’s decision not to interact with them.
