Winners

The **Winner** is the title given to the contestant who has been awarded the victory of The System out of the Final 2 who reached the finale night of each season.

## Criteria

As opposed to many reality competitions, the winner of The System must prove themselves in multiple categories and not just a jury vote. The categories the two finalists must fight for it in are Overall Popularity, Prism Ratio, and finally the Jury Vote. If a finalist can best the other in 2 out of 3 of the categories, that finalist is declared the winner and has beaten The System.

The winner of the Overall Popularity section of the finale is awarded to the contestant with the highest Overall Popularity at the end of the season. This Overall Popularity is constantly effected throughout the season and correlates directly to the Round Popularity. If the Popularity of a contestant increases or decreases, so does their Overall Popularity by the same amount, the only difference is that at the beginning of each round, the contestants popularity is reset to 15, however their Overall Popularity will not be reset.

The winner of the Prism Ratio section of the finale is awarded to the contestant with the lowest Prism Ratio at the end of the season. This value is calculated from the amount of Prisms the contestant divided by the amount of Prisms that the contestant has earned from Missions, Stealing, Transferring or other methods to increase their Prism count. If a contestant has Prisms stolen from them, that will not effect their amount of Prisms spent, as they were stolen not spent.

The winner of the Jury Vote section of the finale is awarded to the contestant who manages to acquire the most votes from a jury of the last 5 or 7 contestants eliminated from The System during their season. The finalists are interrogated one at a time by each juror who is given a limited amount of time to either make a statement or question the finalists. After the finalists have been questioned, the jury has a little time to submit their votes for the winner of the season. There are no formal constraints on the rationale that jury members may employ in choosing who to vote for. The only built-in requirement of eligibility is to make it to Finale night and be eligible for voting.

Once every section's results are calculated, the finalists are gathered and the hosts reveal the winner of each section. The finalist who wins the most respective sections out of the 3 will be crowned the winner of the season. It does not matter what sections a finalist wins, as long as they win 2, meaning that a finalist could be crowned the winner even without the Jury Vote unlike other games, as long as they win both the Prism Ratio and Overall Popularity.
