SUPER IMPORTANT POLL TIME

[captain_asthmatic]

Thank you all for your excitement and engagement with making and discussing the characters' suggestions for what to do with the wish for the event! It's now time to do the first poll, which is intended to narrow down the initial suggestions to just a few popular options.

This poll will be open until July 1st at which point we will close the poll and announce the top 3-5 winners in the main post to discuss the merits of them and also work on the exact wording of the wish, if there is to be a wish at all.

Please fill in the poll below separately with each of your characters who are not abstaining.

You can read the discussion of each suggestion in the post linked above if you need context or to decide what your character would choose to do. In consultation with the mods, we did combine three very similar suggestions into one (the internet/computers/video games one)

For all we know some of these ideas may be smooshed into one, depending on how prelims shake out and are discussed in thread.
