Poll must be restarted
Added 2016-06-29 19:11:29 +0000 UTCHey everyone,
I just took a look at the poll results and realized that there's more votes than Patrons that are allowed to vote.
Now... naturally I looked into the poll analytics, and so I further discovered that one person voted a shitload of times and thus skewed the poll toward his or her favorite choice.
Personally I don't care which enemy makes it into the game first, as most of them will make it in sooner or later anyway, I guess, and this is just about who gets in first, but I really can't look the other way if things go out of hand on this scale.
We're going to have to redo the vote, but this time we're changing a couple things.
You'll need a google account (google plus or gmail works fine) to be able to vote, and the results will only be visible after the vote is over.
Now, I really don't care if someone happens to vote twice or so, I probably wouldn't even notice that. I just trust that noone tries to cheat the system.
But if the vote happens to go down a similar road, we'll have to ask everyone via PM to give us their votes.
This would be a very lengthy process and I would appreciate it if we can avoid this.
After all if we manually count the votes it will take more of our time away, so we'll be making less progress on the game, but if that's necessary, it can't be helped.
Maybe in the future we'll find a better way to do the whole voting stuff, but for the time being this is our only choice.
I spent most of today looking at alternatives, but I wasn't too happy with what I found (some functions are too limited, others required to pay for using the service effectively etc.).
At any rate, that's not the only reason why we need to restart the poll.
I have to admit that I made a mistake when categorizing the enemy types last time and I've just remembered why I did the separation into common enemies and special enemies in the first place.
The "common enemies" are not common because they appear often, but because they use "standard hentai-graphics" during battle (there are hands on the graphics etc.) and these graphics are being shared among all common enemies.
The "special enemies" on the other hand need special graphics, like the tentacle monster needs tentacles etc.
As such, the "Wasp" enemy (as well as several others) is obviously not a common enemy, seeing that it can't use the common graphics.
I apologize for only having rembered this now, lately I mix up a lot of stuff and I kinda have trouble concentrating on things (Yes, I'm already forcing myself to do more frequent breaks and stuff).
So the correct listing of enemies would be:
Common enemies:
- Evil Thugs (Nr 1)
- Shapeshifting Creature (Nr 3)
- Robot Frame (Nr 4)
- Minor Demon (Nr 6)
Special Enemies:
- Giant Wasp (Nr 2)
- Female Plant Monster (Nr 5)
- Flying Horror (Nr 7)
- Slimy Salamander (Nr 8)
- Tentacle Ball Abomination (Nr 9)
Please stay tuned for a post with the new poll later today or tomorrow.
I'm sorry for having to redo this and thank you for your understanding!
