July Topic Vote

Voting ends on Monday, July 10th.

Only one vote per Patreon. Changing votes is noted on the spreadsheet Patreon gives me access to and will nullify votes from that member.

VOTES TALLIED. (Some votes weren't actually valid, but in the end, Starfire and Robin won.

Booty Doc

As much as I had hoped to see what I voted for get picked, there is still going to be new, ultra-sexy art by Fred. I figure that's a win, anyway you cut it.

MrRetsej

I would maybe even suggest top 5 or 4, just so that when one wins the final vote, it will have a much higher likelyhood of getting over 50% of the total votes.

Excel Sior

So... the top 10 likes get into the ballot? that would certainly cut down on the confused ballot. I'll try it.

Booty Doc

Yeah, I ended up not voting for my own nomination because I ended up being torn between a few other choices.

Joshua Wolfe

Yeah, that sounds like a good idea. As more people join the Patreon, the field of nominations will just become unmanageable. Bootydoc has already noted how there almost too many nominations to fit on this ballot. By counting multiple seconds, you could narrow things down to a list of the most popular nominations. So, you are left with nominees that most voters would probably like, even if its not one they ultimately vote for. With fewer choices, you could determine a clearer majority. Also, voters wouldn't feel like they wasted their vote on outliers that no one else ends up voting for. I would also be cool with Bootydoc having more input on the vote, if he wants.

Joshua Wolfe

But currently, the field is so large, that I think fewer people will be pleased with what gets chosen each month.

Excel Sior

I personally have felt fred should have some input for a while now as well. I think he should at least be able to nominate something he might personally want to do. I always feel like even pairings I don't like work well when he is really into it.

Excel Sior

Another idea might be for people to make suggestions or nominations but people don't second them, Fred picks the 5 to 10 he would enjoy doing and then we vote on those, it keeps the list smaller while everyone can still participate and Fred gets to put in his input as well. The only catch would be if Fred doesn't pick your idea you can't complain (otherwise Fred would feel bad and there goes the fun of it!)

awr74

Yeah, I've seen that Starfire/Robin one for awhile now.I like the Teen Titans, but I think Fred should just do it and get it out of the way for other stuff to have a chance.

RanmaChaos

yeah, i think some sort of system change would be good. we make too scattered a field and then an idea winds up winning with only a small portion of overall potential votes. A system that lends itself to voting for an actual majority and not simply the highest percentage would help alleviate this. But it would require either a system like you are proposing, or runoff style voting that would add more work for fred and more diligence from patrons in voting when voting is up.

Excel Sior

yeah, i feel like there are four or five ideas I'd vote for, but all of them continually lose to teen titans ideas each month. Not to knock the people that want to see them, but I've personally checked out on those stories.

Excel Sior

There were a lot of really great choices this time around(to me at least). I hope you keep the idea's around for next time.

RanmaChaos

Maybe instead of a nomination round as it stands, people put forth their ideas and the ones the gets the most likes or seconds move to the actual voting round but they have to get so many likes or votes to qualify (say 5), that way only ideas that people actually like and are willing to vote for actually make it to the voting round

awr74

I still think runoff style of voting will be the most effective, but it will require us patrons to pay a little more attention and vote more than once.

Excel Sior

The list is already full. And I didn't get a correction when I posted the prototype.

Booty Doc

You might be right about that....

Booty Doc

Yeah, and it gets harder to decide. I am not sure if I want to even vote on my nomination because there are so many good ones this time around.

Joshua Wolfe

Starting to think we need 2 seconds. These lists get longer and longer.

LAG76

Hate to be "That Guy", Sir, but you missed Nabiki Tendo & Ranma Saotome (Ranma 1/2) which was nominated by John McGrath and seconded by Argenten.

Daedrius Storm

The character isn't always the actor, even if they share a bit of a likeness. The movie "My Name is Bruce" even tackles that subject. Kinda how Nick Fury and Samuel L Jackson or the Bond actors inform one another, but are different guys.

Chris Scott

I'm shocked you were willing to do the Ash one at all, aren't you often on the Con circuit? And isn't Bruce too? I mean the chances it would lead to awkwardness are still relatively tiny, but I'd feel weird.

Dantels

Looks good! That's a long list. the patreon app makes a selection when you try to scroll down the list on your phone. Hopefully that doesn't count as a vote change.

Questions about the poll, reply here.

Booty Doc

whew. Just under the max vote limit. For future reference if it goes over nomination limit I will remove the votes that were **2nded** last until it fits.
