Community favorites get drawn, that's how it's always been.

I still get complaints, often from the same people that the popular franchises steal the show for the not so popular ones.

I often thought about drawing the least favorite suggestion as well but I don't have the time to do that as I previously mentioned.

I asked if I should pick a random one decided by a dice, but people were against that as well.

The last thing one person suggest a couple of times was banning popular franchises for a time being. I don't want to limit my Patrons in what they suggest, but I also can't ignore people who have something against the rules I've set in 2015. (I am still asking myself why I keep getting support from them when I haven't changed to poll rules for years)

The only thing I would be okay with doing is banning popular franchises for one month, unbanning them for the next etc. Just to let smaller franchises breathe so to say. I still am not sure if this works from an outsiders perspective, people think they can support me to suggest something from a popular series only to get blocked by that rule. Sucks kinda.

The problem is, in what kind of popularity are we meassuring? Popular with my Patrons I guess, because series like God of War are most certainly popular too XD

It got pointed out that my popular franchises are: ATLA, RWBY, Teen Titans, Harry Potter even though RWBY didn't win for a year.

Just asking around today, nothing will change yet. Only if a majority of you really wants rules to change.

Please feel free to comment when a simple vote doesn't suffice.

This one is only regarding the Poll Tier, the Sequence Tier isn't that big right now so I really don't want to limit anything there ^^

Hmmm this is a difficult choice 🤔 I can see the POV on both sides of the situation.... I can see why some people might be miffed with popular series/game continuations and tho the possibility of like the series which is used one month can't be used in another is sorta fair... Oof this is difficult to decide on

I would say: LEt it be as it is Aron. There are always people who have something to say while the most people stay silent and enjoy what you create. As long as they support you, they enjoy your work, no matter how much they have to complain. As Artist by myself I must say: You create often Voting Polls, far more then I do. And when the voting ends and it have a clear winner, the decission is clear. That is democrazy. And as always in a democrazy are there some people who want to change that and starts to complain. Do that what you want to do Aron. When you do Polls and there is a clear way: Enjoy it. As I restartet my Patreon six month ago I also tried to make all people happy. Around December I realised that this is not possible, the only one who is burining up am I (or you and other artists). So I started to change that. I let the one or two people complain / mock around (as you wrote: That are mostly the same guys;) ). They get a answer, or if I am in the mood and time, an explanation. But I will not change anything anymore in an ongoing work. There is just one point when I change something. When people - who stays mostly silent, comes with the same point. When more then five people come with the same point (mostly via Message) I check my system and change it. Of course: I enjoy your Franchise. No matter if that is Happy Rotter, Timmantha Turner or other. I also enjoy the changement of Characters I never heard before (mostly from Anime), because it is the quality of your work, how you show the Changement/ Transformation (as example the Breast and Butt Expansion on Timmy Turner in your ongoing comic), I also would enjoy it to see that on Violett Parr or Diane or other. The quality of work is important, the activity is important. That is why I startet to support you as one of the first after my Patreon reopening. You are constantly working, increasing your quality and a lot more. The same do other Artists I support, like Sitri Abyss, Litch, Sortimind. They are active, showing quality content in their own way. On the other hand I stopped supporting Artists where I see that they just upload one or two pictures in a whole month (or nothing), where the pictures are always nearly the same. That is burned money for me. So Aron, keep it the way it is, it is a good way in my eyes.

I personally don't think this is a bad solution. I would like to see some more variety. That said, I don't really complain about what you've been doing either. As you pointed out though, it's kind of hard to qualify popularity. My only other solution would be to take some of the non winning suggestions and put them in a poll by themselves like every other month or so if you can find time. It would be a second poll but you could let the winner of it take longer to get fulfilled. So you can work on the winner of it off and on over the course of 2+ months. Then just run the secondary poll after you've eventually finished the previous winner.
