You would have to ask someone who's a paid subscriber of Fujino to double-check, but if he hasn't locked them to one-vote-per-account then, yeah, anyone who is a Fujino paid subscriber can manipulate the polls by spending a few hours no lifing voting for the same options over and over again :O
Really? That's weird, why would Fujino sabotage his own polls?
Bro thinks a paid poll is more manipulated than the free poll where he was trying to get people to vote for what he wants.
This is the best wish to have, yeah.
At the end of the day, there is not much we can do, especially the people who aren't paid subscribers of Fujino. If he still hasn't learned to lock the polls ( kinglionheart , any word on that?) then all it takes is, as always, one single person who wants very hard for their choice to win and spends an hour or two making the same votes to invalidate the entire poll, so it's really up to fate now. Also, mind you, at no point did Fujino say at all he would axe a route that wasn't too popular, it's also likely he just wants to know or people's opinion, or mostly intends to use this to see which route he puts more effort/CGs into (If it's this last one it would suck because I have a feeling the obvious route would be left with less content, but even that isn't certain).
This poll will end up like the one for the new game, I mean, who ultimately won for the new game?
I don't think anyone knows, LOL (Though he made a couple mentions about which was in the lead like 2 times), Fujino didn't make the results of ANY previous poll actually visible if I recall, you could vote as much as you wanted but you couldn't actually see the results as far as I'm aware. This may be the first time he's showing them in real time.
Not really a sabotage, when he made the post for the 3rd vote he forgot to add the descriptions. He made a change to the post to add that it's for the BE route but that wiped all the vote on that post.
The best I can do as a paid subscriber is to just change my vote. Also I'm assuming the poll is locked to paid subscribers, so it should be fine. That's how the previous poll felt like it worked when we were voting between Kyouko's hairstyle for the recent update.
The poll is also in Ci-En, yeah.
LMAO, dang, talk about a giant fail XD
I see, that's a relief then.
Pfft...that would be peak trolling for sure, but I doubt it :3
That's the thing, for previous polls you didn't even NEED to make a 'fake account' to rig the votes...you could vote infinitely from a single account, which was the biggest fail of Fujino using google polls without any lock. If he really did it differently this time, it seems he finally learned that wasn't a good idea XD
By infinite, do you mean that by clicking too many times the votes accumulate, or could you simply have changed your mind? Maybe Fujino realized that he screwed up in the previous polls xD
Yes, you literally could do that, I know because I had done those kinds of google polls before and there is a very clear option that limits you to one vote per poll per account, Fujino hadn't selected that so ALL previous polls let you vote infinitely if you wanted with just a single account, lol. Guess he learned his lesson around the time of voting for Kyouko's new hair, maybe?
I mean, he would have to scrap BOTH alternative routes in that case, lol, and he would have said it outright, I feel, he already said he was considering dropping the bad ending route last month after all.
It would be a real New Year's miracle if he abandoned this ridiculous magical route of Kirito and reallocated his resources to refining and completing the main concept of the game, which is what people play for.
