Feedback on the Poll and Future Plans (Patreon)

I've been trying to keep a sort of semi-fairness to it by tracking everyone's previous suggestions when selecting characters to fill out the poll but it's becoming a bit of a headache with the growing number of suggestions each month, trying to balance picks between newcomers and long time supporters along with just keeping myself happy with the work.
I feel like it's time to start considering changes to how things are run. While I haven't settled on anything yet it's likely I'll be removing the suggestion aspect as a reward. I'll still be drawing from the list of characters that have already been put forward and allowing you all to suggest characters at times, but it won't be a regular thing at the start of every month and I wont be advertising it as a guaranteed benefit of becoming a patron/subscriber.
If I keep things as they are I'm worried I'd leave a lot of people feeling ignored when their candidates don't make it onto the poll. I don't want to lead people on by advertising a reward that I can't actually guarantee.
In other news, I'm planning on adding a new tier in the not too distant future. I've been figuring out recording timelapse videos and thinking of offering PSD/clip files as well. I've also considered starting a comic but I don't think that's something I'm currently able to commit to, especially considering I'm still mostly reliant on commissions. Extra votes are also on the table as a reward.
As I said, nothing is in stone yet, things are still going to run as usual for the next month or so. I'd like to get your opinions on how things are currently run and suggestions for what you might like to see changed.
