Request Stream #1 Tomorrow, NEW VOTING METHOD
Added 2017-12-17 01:28:42 +0000 UTCHey guys, I have a new note to make about the stream voting. There will be a new way to vote in the request streams that makes things much easier, fairer, but does require a little more explaining.
If you're familiar with the TwoKinds streams and voting, it's the exact same thing. Amenon was twokind to me and did me a favour by replicating the same system Tom uses. How this works is this:
1. Go to https://fkpolls.com/
2. Leave that page open(during the stream, not now), and it will auto-refresh and update once a vote goes live.
3. The vote will appear as a list of options on the left, and a blank column on the right, like so:

4. Drag and drop the options from left to right, and drag-drop up and down on the right to sort them into your personal preference order, with your first choice up top, and last choice on bottom, like so:

5. Leave the page open! There is no "submit" button or anything. The system will count up the votes and close the ballots/poll automatically once time is up.
That's it! It's a little different, hopefully not confusing. It will let me put more than 4 options up there and not worry to much about chances. It should also give ideas that might normally come in 2nd or 3rd have a better chance at winning, or just overall is much better than a "winner take all/first-past-the-post" system.
If you have any questions, ask below. I'll try to start the stream at 6pm EST

Also, if i already made a submission i can close it or do i keep it open?

2017-12-17 19:48:19 +0000 UTCin the past you made people ask requests or vote on stuff before a stream, but i might be misremembering

2017-12-17 12:29:21 +0000 UTCOh, hrm, that's a good idea too. Yeah I'll toss that idea on there sometime soon for discussion.

2017-12-17 12:23:49 +0000 UTCCool, I'm still a bit confused about it but i'd like to try to get use to it.

2017-12-17 11:02:22 +0000 UTCeh... i used to vote "early" because i was never awake during one of your streams (time zones and work hours don't match), and i hoped one day to see a drawing, this way there is absolutely no way i can cast a vote of any kind on anything. 😅

2017-12-17 08:04:48 +0000 UTCOh sweet. I'm glad to see a system being used that isn't FPTP. Are you speculating doing something similar for the pinup vote? With the tiers just giving you more choices for ranking characters? Like the default is giving one character 5 points, then the next tier you get to give 5 points to one and 4 to another, and so on? The alternative I had suggested before was just the tiers determine the *number* of characters you can vote for, which would massively cut down on the vote numbers, as well as slow down how much the ultra-popular characters skyrocket. Just spitballing here since the idea occurred to me and I felt the need to pass it to you before I lose it. ;P

2017-12-17 06:03:30 +0000 UTCI love this system of voting as it means that if I voted for the lowest item my vote then goes to my next favorite making it more likely to win and so on, it's a very ingenious and honestly fairer way of voting as it means that its truly the most popular item that is chosen ^_^

2017-12-17 05:35:11 +0000 UTCthis look amazing.i cant wait to try it, i did get a job so i have to go to bead at around 8 pm PST (11 pm your time) so i hope this stream starts early enough for me to see at least the first 3, and at least vote on the 4th. (unless of course i get picked 4th then screw sleeping XD)

2017-12-17 05:14:31 +0000 UTCThat's also almost nothing but what gets requested, too. Mine will still be divided up into categories.

2017-12-17 03:07:26 +0000 UTCI guess we'll see how this goes. Not to sure about it, As .. well.. Tom also ends up drawing almost nothing BUT his own characters, but we'll see.
