Oh yeah, I actually tracked the number of unique users (ignoring alts from users who voted on 2 or more accounts) who voted in each round starting with the Top 10. I thought we might see an increase in participation during the Top 10, but any increase in participation was extremely small. The participation levels during the Top 10 were still slightly higher compared to the early rounds (30-35 users).

Participation during the Top 10 rounds:

10 - 38
9 - 41
8 - 40
7 - 43
6 - 47
5 - 39
4 - 36
3 - 35
2 - 54

With the exception of the final, we were still occasionally failing to break 40 users per round. Participation was reduced as we got closer to the final, probably because the rounds were much shorter (the Top 3 round didn't make it to a third hour) and there was less time for users to show up to the round.

The previous Save My Pokemon was regularly getting 40 users per round for pretty much the entire contest, while the Top 100 rounds in the previous contest were regularly getting over 50 users per round. So it was very disappointing that this contest didn't generate the same level of participation compared to the previous one. Although the previous Save My Pokemon contest was currently in progress during the 2015 Games Contest and we know that Undertale's contest winning run increased traffic to Board 8 significantly, and this probably affected the ongoing Save My Pokemon contest at the time.
