I'd like to agree with Branl and Dardiel that I think some dev input on what may have to change with suggestions. I should also say initially that I'm biased because I worked on a set for each suggestion page, but I don't think that bias impacts this opinion much. That being said, I think that players, before voting, may benefit from some information on what may or may not fly with suggestion sets in the top three. I'd say there are two classes of things that would be important to know:
1: This suggestion is balanced incorrectly by the player, and is significantly off in terms of output. (I'd say no need to pull out the calculator for every mechanic, but if something is very clearly off by a margin of 50% or more, like a pet giving way too much hypercrit, or paying more damage than normally possible for a status (75% instead of 50%), then it could be addressed)
2: The suggestion may or may not be balanced correctly, but would not be allowed in due to balance / gameplay concerns. An example of this was Multimaul's flavor effect. Not balanced incorrectly, but too strong, and nerfed.
I recognize this might add a noticeable amount of workload for staff, but since this poll is going to determine not only what people are donating loads of tokens for for the token set, but also the permanently available and accessible Fungibushi set, doing extra legwork now to make sure players have a clear picture of what they're voting for may be worth it. That's my opinion, of course I'm not totally sure about the pros and cons of spending more time on this pre voting phase.
