Congratulations Megaera/Thanatos/Zagreus for the win!!! Hades is one of my favorite videogames and these three mean everything to me, do I'm incredibly happy for the win!!

And of cpurse, in second place we have Camina/Michio Pa/Josep/Serge/Berthold/Oksana from The Expanse! I'm happy to see a polycule that isn't a triad made it so far!! Most of the polyam rep we see are throuples, so I'm very proud of the expanse crew for their second place!

In third place, Caleb/Eadwulf/Astrid from Critical Role Campaign 2, Mighty Nein!

Thank you everone for voting!!

What's next: I will probably take a longer break this time, and when I come back I might run a smaller tournament with polyships I pick myself, as some people have encouraged. We'll see!

Meet the contestants!

George/Gilda/Thomas

Status: Canon

Description: I offer you what is (to my knowledge) the very first depiction of polyamory in film all the way back in 1933. It released just one year before the Hayes Code was put into effect, which meant it was banned for re-release a year later, so it's amazing we got it at all! Both George and Thomas are in love with Gilda, so the three of them agree to move in together with limits put into place to keep anyone from being hurt. And they even get a happy ending!

Alice/Clara/Iruma

Status: Implied

Description: The trio is made up of Iruma, a boy who can't say no to anyone, Clara, a chaotic little gremlin, and Azz, a prideful boy who grew up very isolated. Due to their own circumstances, none of them had any real friends before they met each other, with Iruma being the one to connect them. The three of them do everything together, refer to each other as "soulmates", say they'll "always share everything" and call themselves "the love trio" while swearing to always be there for one another. They're also very cuddly and miss each other greatly whenever they're forced to be apart.
