cinnamonsugar, i actually didnt know that u didnt have to vote for 3 haha xd but then it kinda feels like i have to give up one of my voting slots by not voting for anyone and then wait for 6hrs (or how much it is) for people i actually think deserve it, it feels like one voting slot is wasted u know? or do u get a new chance to vote right away if u dont use ur 3 votes? :D
Vote for May PBFC Theme!
You will have to wait.
But at least you now know that you don't have to vote if you don't think entries deserve it.

Does this mean that currently there is only 186 total active members who actively participate in Bimboland things? If so, why are there so many inactive accounts?
In saying this I mean no disrespect I've been on and off Bimboland since it's Miss Bimbo days. I thoroughly enjoy being here but I see so much inactivity. I want the best for Bimboland.

The vote is officially closed! Winner theme is Heaven or Hell.
I will leave this thread open for further discussion but votes casted to poll after it wont be counted.
So few things:
Cr0cpot, I wasn't referring to you :)
fillyjonka, I like your idea but if I got it right, I'm afraid that it's hard to implement, especially the part where most popular themes get head start of certain amount of votes because this sounds like it would require some coding and I'm not even sure if that is even possible. And even if it was possible, I don't see sense to ask that from admins because the feature might not be used in the future - since hosting suggestion threads and polls are perfectly up to Prime Bimbo and some future PB might not be interested in it, which means we might be going with automated themes, so feature like this would be useless then.
Of course, I could count manually those extra votes, but it sounds little messy and especially new players would have hard time to understand it, I think.
Without head start votes it could work better. You asked if it's overwhelming to do that. For me, it's not necessarily overwhelming, but what concerns me is the amount of time we would have to find for 3 stages of voting.
Also we should consider if it would be overwhelming to players? Here we need to think that you would have to vote in 3 different stages but also get pop-up notification each time there's a new poll. Some people with slow internet connection have complained about pop-up news making their connection even slower and I don't wish to bombard people with pop-ups too much.
Alternatively, we could just have less options for one poll. What would be a good amount instead of 25? (which is maximum, this month we have 23).
And about voting, you can also skip voting if you think that the candidates are just bad :P - after that you won't see the looks anymore. You'll find skip button at the upper right corner of the voting page.
RavenclawLover, it's hard to tell the exact amount of active players. Seeing the vote amount in polls isn't really too telling because not everyone are interested in PBFC and therefore don't want to participate in voting either.

Toki with the polling system i was thinking 2 different polls not 3 :P the first is the 25 and then it gets narrowed down. Why i have the problem with 25 is what if i vote for a theme that only gets 2 votes but instead i couldve added my vote onto like the second most voted one and have that win instead (if i like the second theme better than the one that is winning, then it would feel like my vote actually did something). But i think seeing how many votes any theme has before voting yourself could also help with this worry :) I'd love if this would be a thing that we could add!!!
i think my biggest fear in voting for outfits is that, i wont find the outfits ive previously seen on people, in the voting stage. I feel like the PBFC voting needs like a search engine or a way to see everyones looks (so u know that ur friends or whoevers look will definitely show up) or maybe every account should have a vote for them button next to their profile (but then im worried people would start campaigning by commenting: vote for me, u know). These are kinda the 3 options i thought of and i suggested the second one.
I do have a question about the hours we have to wait until to vote again. I dont really understand it, why not just give people like 5 voting slots for 24hrs, all at the same time. Or do you think people will like sleep for 3 hrs and then set an alarm to come and vote :D, am just a bit confused by that haha. And also what if i do set an alarm and then i dont like anyones outfit and just skip to vote then it seems like its wasted xd
Maybe if you do decide to skip on voting for anyone in that specific voting slot you should get a new one right away? Or could that be somehow exploited in a way i cant tell yet?

FillyJonka, without setting an alarm to vote in the middle of the night, I was able to see all the looks in at least 2 PBFCs. I was even able to do so when I was not a Senator & could vote less often.
You will know when you have seen all outfits because you won't be able to vote anymore even if the voting period is still open.
It is possible that an outfit you saw on someone's profile wasn't actually submitted to the PBFC. Thus, you won't see it in your options.

CinnamonSugar i literally dont know how u did it xd Because when i finally looked at the full results there were so many i didnt see (and i voted for 3 people every time). Maybe if i skip ill see more of them but i dont know what the algorythm is, how the looks are fed to you. If i liked a look will it show up again, or if i liked a look from that specific pool will others from that pool show up again. Because i did see some looks many times, which i didnt specifically like.
My question is can we like a look only once or will the ones we liked keep showing up (so i can vote for the person many times)? I thought the idea was to go through and see all of the looks and have only one vote per person?
Maybe all of this is written down somewhere and you could just link me to the thing haha but im just wondering and trying to make suggestions based on the gameplay ive had in the few months ive been here.

I agree that the current system is not perfect.
You are not supposed to see a look again if you voted for it. If you skip, you are not supposed to re-see the looks that you chose not to vote. However, my understanding is that if you choose 3 on a page, you may see the other looks on that page repeated.
I tend to be selective in my voting. I skip or only vote for 1 or 2. By doing so, I don't see repeats. However, I believe you mentioned before that you always choose 3 from a page. So, the other looks on the page will get shown to you again. I believe the theory is that you may have liked more than 3 on the page, so you see the other looks again to give you the chance to vote for them. Whereas, if I only choose 1, it knows I didn't like the other looks & won't show me them again.

Oh, well, then it wouldn't be so overwhelming but I still want to keep things as simple as possible. Also winners are often so clear that I don't know if having second stage would change anything. :) I will have to think about it though, maybe receiving less suggestions might help for the start.
With the current voting system you are definitely able to see all PBFC looks that have actually been submitted to contests. Maybe you have seen some looks on people's profiles but they never ended up submitting them?
Cinnamonsugar here is right, if you skip voting or vote only for 1-2 options, you shouldn't see those looks again because system knows that that was all you liked. But if you vote for 3 options, the system thinks that there might have been some looks that you could have liked but didn't have a chance to vote for them (because of limit of 3 votes). So that's when you can get repeated outfits.
Since the system was changed, I have been able to see all the looks submitted to contest. I am senator though but I don't do alarms or anything to vote. Week is definitely enough and with my memory and activity, I usually finish voting in few days and then I get notification on voting page saying that I have seen all the entries.

Is no one going to bring up the fact that several of these demonic entries are basically sporting blackface? Really disappointed to see that.
