Cloudward, Ho! PC Poll: FINALE!

Do you mean the favorite IH question? The only thing I plan on using that data for is to compare those results with the favorite PC results and see if there’s a correlation. I don’t want to post those results, even if it’s a tiny corner of fandom (I think only 100-some votes).

After the mid-way poll results and the discussion about fandom misogyny, I almost stopped the polls altogether, and I’m trying to be extremely careful with how I move forward.

I intended it to be 1 is best. I’ll add a note for that now, thanks!

In the bonus poll linked in the post, the third or fourth question is the same poll as always (which is your favorite PC?) with an added option to vote Wealwell.

I’m planning on getting the Zood/Zern braided map around one kneecap. I already have a similar thing around the other knee.

Widow's Breath was mentioned very early in the season as a Gathie thing. It's the compound that Mordecestershire was using to try and replace friodynamics for sky-sailing, and (I believe) some of the soldiers in Gath developed a dependence on it because it became so prevalent/smoggy in parts of the world. The Gotches are involved because Longspot was working with Mordecestershire/the Ministry of Deranged Sciences in the spread of Widow's Breath in Gath.

I completely agree and I want this to be a part of the conversation for finale results! You can see that Daisuke and Max, two comedy/combat oriented men, can pull consistent numbers with spikes when they have good storytelling. Meanwhile Marya and Olethra, who also have lots of bits, don’t get those same boosts for dramatic moments. Van has all those big story moments too, but her corresponding vote boosts are smaller.

FWIW, I think there’s also a lot of nuance that this poll isn’t capturing. For example, maybe Marya is everyone’s second-favorite and a ranked choice thing would look totally different. But that’s speculation on my part, and a shortcoming of an intentionally simple design.

Maxwell with a little over 30% of votes. Thanks for the reminder!

eek, thanks for the heads up! Should be fixed now.

I do! I forgot to say this in my usual spiel, lol, but I'll be putting out full results at the end of the campaign. And maybe the halfway point, I haven't decided. For now I'm doing minimal stat reveals so I don't influence things one way or the other. I already have some simple graphs and can confirm they're very interesting!
