Response to Dustin:

Response to question 3: You say you in question 3 that you wish to see more judges but you also say in 1 that you wish to see that there's spent less time on the whole process. To me, it was the whole "getting more judges" process that slowed me down, not the nommination phase which you stated in question number 4.

I personally found the Final round much more hard to judge than the nommination round. So I am not sure what we should put our focus on. I thought it was rather pressuring to have to be the judge on my own (which was why I ended seeking out other's opinions) and so, more judges would be great for me.

However, this might backfire because seeking out other judges was -to me- the process that took most time. Is more judges worth the cost? I would say so, I would be much more comfortable doing this with someone. But it has a price.

As for a response to question 4, I personally didn't feel like there were to too many nomminations (again, I felt the finalist round was the one taking time). I dissagree with you that it should be lowered down to only tribute pr person, though I can agree that the nommination limit should not be above 3.

As for a response to question 2 and 5, I can assume that you agree with Nick on the process? I believe I might try and make that the experimenting way on next TOTM to see people's response to that.

As for a response to question 6, I am not sure if I entirely sure if I agree. Where people are probably bias (since it's their own) they can't make it past the nommination round unless they have something to offer within that tribute and in round 2 they weren't able to vote for themselves. I fear we might have too few nomminations if we take this away too.

As for a response to "Rules 2" (and I might sound a bit annoyed now...) The "being behind scheduel" has gone on ever since TOTM started, regardless of whether it was public or not. So where I do agree that yes, we should definitely get it back on scheduel, I doubt doing it as admins is gonna help much, it's usually very hard to assembel all of us admins together. So if I may propose another solution, couldn't we the next public TOTM pick two tributes, both one for November and December?
