That's not the character's fault, though. Why blame the character?

The Turks haven't been nominated once (beyond Tseng helping make scenes for other characters), which tells me that their screentime didn't warrant it's very own video.
We do top VII rankings, Jairus. You can look at the Youtube channel or this section of the forum. That's really not on Claymore.
No one is punishing the character. Jessie is treated like same as any of the other non playable characters.

Keep in mind that characters other than the mains were made optional to come up with moments for. If they'd been made obligatory like the mains, I'm sure more moments would've been thought of.
Alright. I misunderstood. Thought it was his thing because he made the thread.
I'm not talking about the contest here. I'm talking about Ry seeming to not like her anymore because of stuff that's gone on related to her that the character itself didn't do. I was talking about her separating the character from stuff that's happened here related to her, is all.

Claymore, what about the extra Other lists crazy and I submitted? And why did you put 7 as a threshold number for an Other character to get a video when it would be near impossible for most to ever get close to that number anyway? The threshold should've been lower to give them a better chance of getting it.
Oh, and why does Biggs' death matter and Jessie's doesn't? I guess Aerith is the only girl whose death is allowed to affect people?

^ Correct me, if I'm wrong, but... Because people voted that way? Am I missing something here?
Not that the way people vote in it diminishes either moment, it's just opinion and everyone's entitled to vote as they like

Jessie's death wasn't even an option because nobody suggested it. We suggested the bike scene instead. I think I was one of the people who suggested Biggs' death scene.
Look, @Jairus, I know you want Jessie represented in the video. Stop fighting the set up and just vote for her. Her scene is still a contender if you and a few others were to rank it highly.

What i'm saying is that her death apparently wasn't memorable enough or good enough for it to be remembered here and nominated. If anyone wants to prove otherwise, then please change your votes.
And Ody, i did vote. Didn't you see the list of 7 Jessie moments i submitted above? It's enough to meet Claymore's guidelines, so he should do what he said he would do if an Other character had enough moments. Crazy submitted a similar list as well.
But, just in case...

Your entire post of nominations were null and void.
For the main characters, you categorised them into only 7 moments and allocated 7 points. That is not in the guidelines that I outlined. Those rankings are void and have not been included in my ongoing calculations.
For the other characters, you threw in your own nominations and rankings, all of which were for a single character. Unfortunately, the nominations period - which lasted an entire week - had expired. As you are aware, we are now in the rankings phase of the event. I am not accepting any new nominations, or resetting the entire event, to accommodate a single individual. Unfortunately, TLS community did not offer up seven unique Jessie moments for consideration, which meant that we will not be getting a solo Jessie video.
Those are the rules and guidelines which even I abide by. In the second post of this very thread I highlighted how gutted I was that a great Barret moment was forgotten by me and not picked up by anyone else. I didn't bend or throw out the rules to accommodate my own whims. That is the way it goes sometimes.
I've explained the format and the rules for this community event. As has been mentioned, please stop fighting it and embrace it. Otherwise, I am again asking you to leave.
We are in a FF VII fandom. We do things out of VII. That is our thing. Please check out similar video content available over on our YT channel if you believe that this is something that I am purposely setting up to specifically target and disadvantage 'other' characters. It isn't.
Please read above.
Now that you have finally followed the guidelines I can happily accept those rankings for the Other category at least. Thank you.

I misunderstood about that and thought we were supposed to pick 7.
The point was to show that enough moments were available that she could have. And also that TLS as a community doesn't seem to view at least some of them as memorable enough to include in a thing like this or care about. One character's death matters, but another's apparently doesn't, for example.
I never said you were targeting anyone. Only that in this instance, you could have made the threshold lower so Other characters would've had a much better chance of getting their own video. You should've realized that 7 would be too high and made an exception - an adjustment you can still make. Unless you want to come off as inflexible and unreasonable.
If you had made the Others category mandatory like the PC categories, more moments would have been thought of and submitted. Being optional automatically meant they'd get less. Instead of starting the contest over, you could simply extend the nominations period for another week, make the Others category mandatory, and push back this phase, retaining the tallied results so far and adding any new successful nominations to the rankings lists.
If TLS truly cares and likes characters other than just the playable ones, then they should have an event or contest of some kind where only NPC's are eligible and PC's are not, to give those other characters some real attention for once instead of just being an optional add-on.

Most of my favorite characters are NPCs. I don't care in the slightest that they don't have their own event. This is just for fun and not meant to be taken seriously... I don't understand why it's so upsetting.

Doesn't actually answer what I said, you know. Might want to try that.
And Ry, my point was that things like these are only ever thought of with the PC's in mind. I'd just like to see one focused only on the NPC's for once, that's all. As something different and a break from the norm.

I like practically every event that was nominated, so marking some as my "least favorite" is a tad deceptive

So I guess most people here don't really like Jessie, then. Feel free to prove me wrong by changing your votes, folks. That's the only way. Otherwise, my statement stands. Simply saying you do but not doing anything about it doesn't show it.

I know that this backs up your point, but I do like Jessie quite a bit even if I didn't vote for her nominated moments. But there's a caveat.
She's the most developed out of the AVALANCHE crew. If Jessie's moments during the visit to her parents' house were nominated, I would've put those at the top of my "other" list, because that was the strongest scene any secondary character got.
