Hey folks! I just wanted to reach out all of you illustrious BIG FISHES, and get your thoughts on some things!
First off, as we saw earlier this month, polls on this "Wonderful Site" have an in built limit of 25 choices! And I'm wondering what you all think would be a good solution?
On the one hand, I can make more than one poll as I did earlier, but I worry that just results in people being confused? A character may win or be in the top of one poll, but not actually move on to the final round, etc. Plus, there's the concern of certain characters that are really popular getting an advantage if they end up in a poll with less popular ones. I could personally try to group popular characters together into a single poll, but there's always the chance I could miss a character and it feels kind of unfair to put someone's suggestion at a disadvantage just because they might be "popular".
Another obvious solution is to just limit it to 25 choices anyway! I know people often comment about choice paralysis anyway, so keeping the poll to a reasonable number might be good in the long run. The only thing to figure out would be how to decide on those 25 choices! I'm leaning towards just "first-come-first-serve"! It seems the fairest, though it might be hard for certain timezones.
Another way I could do it is just to pick semi-randomly! I'd probably favor characters I thought were interesting, and it'd make it so it didn't matter what time you commented! But I could see maybe people having issues with that? That's how I operate the stream suggestions, and people seem to be okay with that? So I'm not sure!
Just let me know your thoughts about the topic when you get the chance! Also, lemme know how all of you are feeling about your BIG FISH status! Do you feel like you're getting the value you'd want from the tier itself? Just lemme know!
