What to do with recurrent winners?

  • I don't care who is drawn all as long as I get sweet art. 126
  • Don't change anything, let popular characters be suggested and voted for! 35
  • I'm in favor of banning recurring top drawn poll chars from entering polls for 1 month. 224
  • I'm in favor of banning recurring top drawn poll chars from entering polls for 2 months. 360
  • I'd like it if the last 2 Updates of a month featured multiple characters to reach further down the poll results. 50
  • I'd like it if everything stayed as it is now, but a 7th Update was made each month for the less popular characters 26
  • I'd like it if NeoCoill completely ignored the poll results order past the top 1-3, so he can choose anything from the poll. 35
  • I'd like it if Neocoill drew ANY characters he wants outside the poll after the top 1-3, even characters not from the poll, surprise me! 255

Some patrons are disappointed to see the same characters succeed regularly (Mitsuri, Momo etc.), and they've asked for ways to get some less popular characters drawn. I personally don't mind drawing them, but I'd also like to make everyone happy to some extent, if possible.

Here are some choices I've come up with, please vote on all that apply to you. Patrons who don't vote would be considered as not caring one way or the other.

Regardless of the result, I will keep an eye on patronage with any changes I may try, and might have to change things around if drawing less popular characters simply hurts the Patreon.

What about alternating polls? 1 month of popular characters, then a month of unpopular characters

Llmega

I'd like a mini 7th not much but still testing the waters for the lesser known

I definitely support the 2-month ban for top voted characters I hope this won't impact your patreon support, but I personally feel that the current pattern has become quite repetitive

Tm0thy

I would say put a timeout on characters that reoccurred too much or favor non recurring choices on poll

Blockyblob

No banning, that's the worst.

I’ve noticed some people are a bit disappointed by some curious details—like the fact that you used to include 10 images per update, but now it’s only 6; it feels very fleeting, as if they’re over in a flash. Would it be possible to add more versions to each part in one or two of the month's updates? Personally, I also really like the idea of ​​you surprising us with a random character. Since it isn't tied to a poll, I feel like you could take things a bit more at your own pace—or maybe that’s just my impression XD. That said, I also appreciate seeing a wider variety of characters beyond the usual poll winners; there’s a lot of potential there. Sometimes characters who were trending arrive too late, after their popularity has already dropped significantly—like Kit last month. Instead of adding a seventh update for the month, I feel that time could be used to add a bit more variety to the existing six updates, though I’ll leave that decision up to you.

Could always also do silly thing that "least voted also wins" Recall one artist did it and the results for least voted were always very close to last second. Just would need emphasize in poll description so supporters know it 😝

Xxgxxaxx

As I still do love seeing some of those recurring characters I think a popular and unpopular poll should be made to rotate between

Some guy

I love it when creators takes time out of their day to ask stuff like this. Huge respect

I can definitely see the frustration of only seeing popular/trending/recently revealed characters winning a poll. For most artists I follow, any character that fit the above description was already gonna get drawn so having em take up a slot feels kinda bad. That doesn't even get into the repetition. Do I really need to see X character wearing Y outfit doing Z for the 3rd or 4th time. May as well just do a mega collection and dump em all at once. One artist I follow, who does videos mind you, has a restriction that if a character won the poll for a video they cannot be suggested again. That is an option Or maybe periodically that character/ip could be restricted from submissions for a month

How about a fair solution? Half of the polls are "The Wide Ocean" with popular characters, the other half can be called " Fishes in the Pot", with less popular characters only.

Some Random Anime Otaku

Each choice has its pros and cons, but the 2 month ban seems to be the best option, due to the recurrence shenanigans.

Blaze

I'd go as far as banning characters from the same series for two months: MhA and Demon Slayer being the biggest offenders lol.

bigeggguy

Ban AND pick who you want tbh

Valtyr

I absolutely think there needs to be space between some of the really popular characters, but I feel like 2 months is a bit excessive, especially for people who are here primarily for those characters. That said 1 month and/or as others have said some form of bump to the unpopular ones sounds like a perfect compromise
