    With the shirtless pen of the avatar, can we choose which dev is involved?

    Stephen is the only volunteer. That being said, if it actually gets a spot, we may see what happens. (No promises)

    Believe me, I'd like that as it would have me from having to go back and count all the votes on the posts. Unfortunately, to modify the PHP for the forum would require setting up a local install for testing just in case I break it and it's likely not as simple as changing a variable to allow more options. The form field names/id's are likely hard coded instead of iteratively coded, but I wouldn't know without looking. Both of which is a pretty hefty time investment for a feature that wouldn't be used terribly often.

    That being said, I *may* make a weekend project out of it, but no promises. Maybe I could release a plug-in for XenForo. (There may even be one already, who knows...)

    (plug-in compatibility is a whole different can of worms as we have already heavily modified the forum to allow logging in from the main SotA site)

    I can see why further game details would help bring in new backers or raise existing pledges, though I personally prefer the "fluff" selections, since I like the team members and enjoy their antics and stories. I really enjoyed Gorn's adventures and would like to see that continued. :3

    The poll has been fixed to include Deep Dives. If you commented a vote for a Deep Dive, please go back and vote!

    Looks like you can't go back and change votes, so I'll be hand-counting everything anyway. Carry on...

    While an imperfect solution, we're just gonna go back to the "vote by replying" method as it will affect less people than forcing everyone who voted to vote again (and possibly miss the message).

    If it ends up being 50 pages long....how will you keep track of sneaky people that voted more than one time :) It will be like one of those memory games where you look at a card then flip it back over.
