To possibly see a contest where these two characters were not going to be featured was exciting - it meant we might actually get something different, something worthwhile, something meaningful to fans of all 20 years of Power Rangers and not just the first three.

Everyone knows there was cheating. I just can't fathom how BoA's correction included BUMPING up the totals for, LITERALLY, for every Power Ranger against the ones we pushed to win (literally, every single one ... listen to the podcast and then look at the before/after vote totals). You're telling me that a couple thousand votes for Jungle Fury Wolf Ranger were invalid, and that Red Samurai Ranger needed a bump? I can't even wrap my head around that.

To me personally it screams that Bandai did their research to see who would win and who would lose. That these brackets were not ever "random" at all - that 5 specific Power Rangers were intended to win (the only one that didn't matter was MMPR Green/White, as they will get a Ranger Key release at mass retail anyways). With cheating in place, they did the right thing in adjusting down votes that were invalid. But I cannot see how BUMPING other Rangers was necessary. I didn't think there was a legitimate way to DECREASE someone's votes, only INCREASE them through an exploit.

Enjoy your MMPR Green Ranger, MMPR Yellow Ranger, MMPR Red Ranger, Samurai Red Ranger, and Super Megaforce Red Ranger keys. Not like four of them are available now or listed to be available, with a literal no-brainer in MMPR Green.

I'm not ready to give up yet. #VoteTitanium & #VotePhantom still have a fighting chance. And I'm gonna make damn sure they don't get shafted like all the other rangers in this bracket. We're at least getting 2 unique keys out of this damn it.
