even in the face of overwhelming talent, a candidate fails to earn enough votes because of sympathetic votes cast for an underdog. voters likely thinking "Pia's gonna win anyway" thereby resulting in a shocking outcome when the obvious front-runner is eliminated.
How many sympathy votes can Stefano and Casey get? Must be the Pia Effect
Gee I wish Bush had won in 1992. Obviously a victim of the Pia effect with people sympathy-voting for Perot. Clinton ran away with it.

Get the Pia Effect mug.The effect where a YouTuber will play a video game and their mindless sheep followers will start playing the game. This is usually good, but in roblox, it can result in cringe ass nae nae games such as tycoons to explode in the big money.
Fuck Denis and Flamingo. Their bitchass followers caused tycoons to flood the game section, leaving no room for the good games and causing the creators of the actually good games to use bots to get their games slightly noticed. God damn this YouTuber Effect

Get the joenewlie effect mug.When someone looks up the definition of a word and then uses that word more often in conversation, consciously or subconsciously, because the definition is still fresh in their mind.
That's five times now Gulstaff has used the word 'conflagration' in a sentence. He didn't even know what that meant yesterday. Must be the Webster effect.
