Hi everyone, I've had a thought regarding polls lately that I wanted to run by you and get your opinions on.
I've noticed there are some characters that are consitently popular but unfortunately not popular enough to ever win (cough mordred cough), and I've been thinking about how to introduce some more variety to the polls without necessarily having to exclude characters that are more likely to win.
I've looked at the way some other creators handle polls, and after some thought, I've come up with an idea that will give people who really want specific characters to win the ability to influence the polls a bit more while keeping the experince basically the same for those who have no strong feelings.
The idea is as follows:
Tier 1 patrons will get a voting power of 2 points per vote
Tier 2 patrons will get a voting power of 5 points per vote
Tier 3 patrons will get a voting power of 10 points per vote
I'm thinking of running three seperate versions of the poll, each locked to a specific tier. Once the poll is concluded, I'll tally all the points and make a post announcing the winner and showing the results of all three polls.
The suggestions system will stay the same, it won't be influenced by tier, and you'll still be able to vote for multiple characters. The only difference will be that higher tier patrons will have stronger influence.
Please let me know what you think, I am open to suggestions!
tldr: make polls p2w, yes or no?
