Should YOU decide? (Patreon)
Content
Hey what's up you guys, (Sorry this will be a long post, but please read it all before voting).
I have come up with an idea that I'd like to run by everyone (I've discussed it in the discord last night and would like a broader discussion with you all).
As you know I've recently started binging some new shows as "Once Upon A Time" has been moved to the Monday slot and is now a regular show instead of a binge and release one; and as I would like to continue to try to make things more interactive between us.
I'd like to suggest a new system where by way of a poll you get to decide which SEASON of a Pilot show gets binged next.
There would be rules for this poll and they would be as follows.
--------------
PILOT POLL RULES:
1. You are presented with 5 shows selected from the Pilot List. (An example will be below this rule set)
2. The winning show will get timed out for the next poll in order to give other shows a chance.
3. I'll be binging that season of said show to eventually release on the Thursday slot.
4. The winning show can come back later on with another season and while not on the poll, People in the Pilot Tier are allowed to continue picking episodes of this show until the show might end up winning another round on a future poll. (Example, If Grimm season 2 wins the first poll, Grimm season 3 will not be on the next poll but it will return on the third poll we have).
5. Considering some seasons of a show might have 13 episodes and some 22, these binges will not be held to a specified release date and a new poll will come up whenever a season is either nearing completion or has been completed. If said show has already had a few episodes reacted to that will make the binge shorter as I'll be completing the season.
6. Shows are subject to change in a consecutive poll if there aren't enough votes for them in the current one, they can however come back in a future poll as perhaps people have changed their minds on wanting to see a certain show.
7. There will be no multiple choice, you each have the option to choose one show in the poll. You'll be able to see the results if you have voted and are able to change your vote but it will only be one vote. The poll will likely close after a week or so of voting.
8. The winning show will be announced so that people in the Pilot Tier have a heads up on what not to pick, and so people have something to look forward to as well.
9. If a show on the poll doesn't reach a minimum of 20 votes it might not come back to a future poll for a while. There are 5 shows with each poll however, there should be sufficient people voting.
10. The first poll will be randomly generated from a bunch of different pilot selections.
My own personal rule: I'll do my best in binge reacting to a show but if I feel as though it doesn't interest me much I'll likely drop the show and make a new poll. I will give it a solid effort though, at least 1/3 of the season will be binged before making that choice.
--------------
WHAT A POLL COULD LOOK LIKE: (This is just an example the shows on the first poll will not necessarily ever have these shows on there as it'll be randomly generated).
-
Chuck Season 2 - (2/22 episodes)
3rd Rock From The Sun Season 2 - (26 episodes)
Grimm Season 2 - (6/22 episodes)
The Fosters Season 1 - (4/21 episodes)
Marvels The Runaways Season 2 - (13 episodes)
-
If a show in the poll says for instance 2/22 episodes, This means that 2 episodes have already been picked from this season and so 20 are left to watch.
--------------
DISCLAIMER: Shows winning this poll are currently only coming to Patreon. Due to busy schedules my editors and myself are operating by, We in no way are making promises of any kind that these will be edited for YouTube. It is possible that in the future a show might end up on the YouTube schedule. But nothing is set in stone at this current time.
--------------
Why I want to do this?
People are always asking me to react to this show or this show and a lot of the time people select shows at the pilot tier that I wish I could continue but don't have the time to do so. This would open up the opportunity to try new shows a bit more and we can have a bit more of a open conversation about whats coming to the channel.
Now that we've had a really long post, and you've supposedly read the whole thing... you may vote whether you like the idea and want it to move forward or not. There is no guarantees but I'd like opinions on the matter if you can give them :)
Thank you for reading the whole post before voting!
