[[1ST POPULARITY POLL] The results are in!]

??? In no way were the rules changed? They clearly said 1st place was getting something. The top three thing was discussed primarily as an extra way after the polls were even created. It was never added to the rule set as it was supposed to be a surprise.  We as a dev team discussed and came to this conclusion. There are no excuses here. As you said, nothing was lost, so I don't understand the issue here?

I'm not very active on here anymore so again I'm responding a bit late but obviously the thing I was referring to was OP post saying "the idea had surfaced while the polls were open to give 2nd and 3rd place artwork as well" but then because you didn't like who got 2nd place, you just went with Venam instead. It's literally written right in the post.

So that's my "issue" even though I understand perfectly that on a base level you guys aren't obligated to do anything in the first place. I'm just voicing my opinion that it seems like a less than ideal (to avoid using a harsher word) way of doing things.

I'm a bit late but looks like my prediction of Aelita winning was spot on. Which I'm happy about since she was one of my picks. What I didn't expect was the 2nd place spot to be so contested or to see Erin up so high. A bit disappointed Crescent's not higher though but at least she's top 10.

 

As for artwork thing, I'm kinda conflicted since it was suppose to just the top one getting anyway so nothing's technically lost, but at the same time it seems kinda low to set up the rules and then just change them after the fact because you don't like the result. I mean we knew Melia already had a couple of artworks before the poll so the only new information is the vote count. I mean if you wanna draw Venam to put her in the art spotlight or whatever, then just draw her. Nobody would complain. There's no need to come up with these excuses.

Love the way Aelita and Alice look. Also those rift mons look POWERFUL. Nice job.

Artwork aside, it should be pretty interesting to see which characters people are into. Especially since there's 3 votes per person we might see some less prominent ones pop out. My picks were Melia, Aelita and Crescent in that order (not that it matters here). 

My prediction for who's gonna win is Aelita but not with too much confidence.

Well Reina definitely looks way cuter than I ever imagined her in the game.

Wow, I feel even sadder for Vivian just looking at that sprite. Great job on Risa too. She'll probably be 80% less annoying with that look.
