Dealing with returning characters (Patreon)
Content
Thanks to the last poll, I need to clarify something I've always forgotten, which is how I will deal with characters returning from the last polls (this apply to explicit edit and sketch upgrade polls too).
In short, I'll keep valid the votes of the last poll, or polls, the character in question participated.
Votes from previous polls will be shown like this [+n°old votes]
The only thing I ask to patrons who can suggest characters is to have some common sense in case the chosen character doesn't get a decent number of votes.
In that case I'll allow the character to be chosen for a maximum of three times (three polls basically), after which the character cannot be chosen again for a certain period of time, like 6 months (but I have yet to decide).
This is done to prevent unpopular characters who get 1 or 2 votes each time from showing up for months until they win by default because they have too many old votes stacked up
As always, if you have questions about anything unclear, feel free to ask.
