I am so sorry that I am just seeing these messages. I haven't been trying to ignore you all of this time. I just didn't see these. Please accept my apology.
Thank you for the congratulations. It was- and continues to be- really exciting to know that I've made a small contribution to G.I. Joe. I have no inside knowledge, but I'm hoping that maybe we see something at Toy Fair (maybe concept art or something)? It'd be nice to have at least a hint at what they are planning for this year.
Again, I'm sorry I've neglected these messages. I'll be more cognizant of this in the future.
If you mean "minimum of X votes per poll" then that's not really workable for the simple reason that with a varrying number o voters, that may unfairly benefit or penalize characters depending when they enter the poll. (eg. getting 3 votes of 20 is way better than 3 votes of 40).
If you mean rolling the drops after each character has been in for 5 polls rather than ever 5/10 then that's your call. Means you have to keep track of this every poll rather than at one time. I liked doing it all at once but totally up to you.
All I do is divide the number of votes the character gets over 5 polls by the total number of votes in that 5 polls to get their percentage. Then drop to the requisite number of noms.
