Practice Poll Winner (Pixiv Fanbox)
Content
The practice poll I made has now ended, and while it started as just a practice, it's the unofficial first poll and will actually have the victor animated. The characters up for vote were:
1.) Dead or Alive - Rachel
2.) Final Fantasy - Rinoa Heartilly
3.) Fatal Frame V - Rui Kagamiya
4.) Dynasty Warriors - Lianshi
5.) Dead or Alive - Nagisa
I did weight votes based on their tier, just because that's about the best I can offer higher tier supporters at this point(and it might be the only thing I can offer). Flower tier gets 1 point per vote, Lazy gets 5 per vote, and Procrastinator gets 10. Because of that, the weighted results were:
Rinoa Heartilly - 42
Nagisa - 40
Lianshi - 36
Rui - 30
Rachel - 16
Interestingly enough, just the raw votes have the exact same order, with just slightly different gaps. This might be because I don't have a ton of supporters, and the end result was that only half actually voted, but we'll see how things go moving forward. I also wanted to give a small update and clarify a few things since I've kind of waffled around on the whole things since the last time.
I originally said the schedule would be Regular Release > Poll > Regular Release > Poll Animation Release > repeat. Thinking about it, and with how streamlined things are with Google Forms, that's a little infrequent. It'd basically be once a month, slightly less even. So, I've decided to accelerate things a bit. Since this was the first poll, it will follow that same pattern, but when I release the Poll Animation, I'll release a new poll alongside it, meaning every other week there will be a poll and a poll animation. As a consequence, they will be released for supporters first for a week, but they will be added to my regularly scheduled releases the following week so they will released for everyone alongside my normal stuff. Will the schedule overwhelm me? Hopefully not. But I actually had a lot of fun seeing the results of this poll, so I'd like to speed it up a bit instead of having to wait another month before the next. If I need to change the scheduling, I will and announce as such. For now, I'm limiting character choices to characters I have already rigged, can easily rig, or are half rigged(I've started a ton, then never finish them lol). I'll slowly expand on character choices as things go, and I might release the list at some point if people are curious.
Last thing to note: the amount of animations may vary depending on how I feel. I'll also admit that this poll will have an animation for both Rinoa and Nagisa - I actually started on a Nagisa animation to get a head start, because at the time Nagisa had 27 points and Rinoa 12. Didn't actually expect the comeback, but that's just how it goes sometimes when you don't live up to your name and try to get ahead of the workload.
