Here's some "info" about the polls and what gets chosen from suggestions though.
Normally I stick with five. Why not ten? I mean ten seems more fair right? Maybe. But while polls naturally favor the more popular choice, it's nice to try and pick a popularity BALANCE if possible. With ten, the more popular picks come out super far ahead. More than usual. This is because all of the "less popular" picks are more spread out, while the more known choices don't lose much.
Why isn't Renamon in this poll? Why isn't Palutena in this poll? They were in earlier ones. Well, just for these two, you've got a massive support group of furry/kemono who would all go for Renamon, and a massive Nintendo support group who would back Palutena. Which is a FAIR FIGHT. AND A FAIR VOTE. But you throw Aisha Clan Clan and Ramlethal in that poll and they'll be massacred. It's not even close to an even voting pool. And with TWO polls running each month now, I can afford to try and "group" voting pools based on popularity closer together. This means I can run a "HEY SUPER POPULAR CHARACTERS VS EACH OTHER" and a "HEY REMEMBER THESE CLASSICS?!" too. Which is ultimately more for everyone, while still being honest that, hey, the popular vote wins. Because it's a poll. But your options are closer together. It's a closer fight.
You added Squigly but not Minette (for example). Why not add them both? Well okay, I like Skullgirls (for example) too. But let's say that either would be representative of and appealing to Skullgirls fans. But if I add them both, you can bet that neither will have a good chance. Why? Because all the Skullgirls votes will be divided between the two. Meaning neither will come out ahead. It's basically assuring that both will win. Adding Felicia AND Morrigan? That'd do the same thing.
SO AND SO SHOULDN'T HAVE WON. THEY'RE JUST POPULAR. It's a poll. It literally runs based on popular and majority vote. I can't help that. All I can do is ATTEMPT to balance the choices. But in the end, I mean dude people love what's hot this month.
