What do you want to see? (v. 1)

I want to try this poll system and see how it works. The idea is that I will prioritize whatever is voted on here but in a way that is a little more complex (and hopefully better) than a normal poll. Here is how it works:

After a month I'll tally all of the votes and the project with the most votes will get extra attention for the following month. Every other vote will get 'saved' and automatically added to the next poll. For instance if Slim Chance gets the most votes this month those votes will be 'spent' and not added to the next poll. Everyone who voted on month one can simply vote on Slim Chance again potentially make it my focus 2 months in a row. However, if six people vote on Unobtainable the first month and then vote for it again on the second month- Unobtainable will end up with 12 votes for that month (two months added together). In that case the 10 Slim Chance votes for month two will get saved and added to the tally for month three. Finally, everyone will be able to vote on multiple projects every month.

So why am I making this 'more complicated'? Basically because I think it sucks if people who want to see certain content can never get what they want. It seems more 'fair' to me that their votes would build up over time so that they aren't always outvoted. That said, I will add new things to the poll or prune projects when it becomes clear they aren't popular.

You have to be a patron to vote, so this is one of the main perks of being a supporter!
