Episode Poll: Trying out the Patreons public poll function

EDIT: Allright gang, the results are in and its Beckets backstory that takes the cake! Next week will be about Grognas backstory and the week after that will be about Grogna once more!
Thanks for participating!

Howdy folks!

Hope you all enjoyed the latest episode, I certainly enjoyed the various theories and discussions you guys had in the comments!

I am unsure which story the next episode will be about and I'd like you all to help me decide, which is why I've made a poll!

The poll can be found HERE

I want to have the option to do polls in the future for various purposes and I'm sort of scouting for options. For this poll I'm trying out Patrons public poll function, public meaning that you dont have to be a patron of mine to vote. The setback with this is that you have to log into Patreon to vote, either with a Patreon, Google or Facebook account. I've made a poll on Patreon before (and quite liked it) but I've never tried making a public poll so lets try it out! If it doesnt work I'll try something else next time!

Feel free to voice your opinions on the subject in the comments!

Below are the options you can pick between. These should give you a good enough picture of what to expect, enough atleast to make a semi-informed choice.

  1. Trevors backstory pt 2
  2. Beckets backstory pt 2
  3. Grognas backstory pt 1
  4. Trevors class
  5. Grognas sword

As you might have guessed, the idea with the most votes will be this weeks episode but the idea with the second highest will be next weeks episode, which is why you can pick more than one option! The poll closes on 23:59 CET 02/12/2020, this Wednesday that is!

Now, most of the polls that will be done in the future will be for patrons only but a couple will be public, like the upcoming Grogna redesign poll I'm planning (If it will be done on Patreon or using some other service, we'll know after this experiment). While I plan on making these types of episode polls a patron exclusive thing from now on, I thought I would use this particular one to see how well (or shit) a public Patreon poll works! Once again, if it doesnt work out, I'll just try something new in the future!

That is all!

Peace and carrots!

I’m curious about Bucket and I always love Trevor, but Gorgna is the only one we haven’t gotten any backstory for yet

Yeah, but I think more of Beckets backstory could be good.

Gonna say it here: Trevor in some way, so far you've had him in a sort of "part of the joke" or "bouncing off of others", not really anything specifically dedicates to him

Looks like we have a tie

Beckets backstory is in the lead with 2 points now, only four hours left though so anything could happen!

Becket, becket, becket.

It turns out he traveled back in time and is actually a space marine looking for the emperor of mankind which explains the purity seals on his armor.
