I had my own Bimbo among two other candidates once, too. I think we should not have a chance to vote for ourselves! Can we do sth about it?Having your own Bimbo in poll of three shouldn't happen. It probably was a system flaw or bug. I don't know were you the only one with such issue or there were more... You are the first who reported it.
The entry fee? Could be higher, but not that high. Some Bimbos can't save BD (look at me!), especially when there's a new theme and I've got nothing connected with it in my closet. Let's double it to 500.
Is there a chance to eliminate naked Bimbos by the system while uploading our outfits?
This thread was brought to my attention by LillyAnn; I appreciate that you took the time to leave me a comment and provide me with a link. I may not have noticed that this thoughtful discussion was taking place otherwise. So, thank you!
My husband and I are both Bimboland fanatics, and month after month during the DQFC we rehash the same complaints with each other that many of you have brought up here in this thread. I am glad we are not alone in our disappointment with the current voting system. We all agree that it could be better.
This is such a fun game, and it’s more than a game; it’s a Bimboland
republic! I have seen the creators make wonderful, ongoing improvements based
on the suggestions of its citizens and legal residents. I am glad we have the opportunity to provide meaningful feedback and that it is considered.
There are so many creative DQFC entries, most of which go unseen, because we can view only three entries per day, and due to the short duration of the contest. There is also the issue of repeats. It would be nice to see different entries each voting opportunity. Of course, I would like the ability to see every DQFC entry in one place at the same time, but I understand that the server cannot support this, as our Prime Bimbo explained, and I accept that.
This being the case, I am open to other tweaks and changes that are possible, that will achieve the goal of enhancing the fairness and transparency of the voting system. I concur with many of the creative solutions that have been proposed so far. Allow me to echo you.
1) Remove the names of all entries to reduce bias.
2) In order to maximize the number of entries seen, allow voters to view 9-10 entries at a time, 5-12 times a day. Either with back-to-back voting opportunities or perhaps a new voting opportunity would unlock every couple of hours.
3) Eliminate the opportunity for a voter to vote for the same bimbo/himbo twice. No repeats.
4) Remove entering the DQFC as a daily task in order to increase the quality of contestant outfits.
5) With regard to naked and off-theme entries, I
disagree with those who have recommended eliminating or disqualifying them via
a special pre-selection committee of some kind. This process, if approved, would open a whole new can of worms. If people are willing to pay
the contest entry fee, I believe they should be granted the right to freely express
themselves, however annoying. Let voters decide.
6) I prefer that the entry fee remain as is. The fee may already be a hardship for some. A fee increase could exclude many from participating and hinder the quality of submissions by decreasing the funds available for outfit creation.
You are always so systematic and refer to everything, I really like your posts and appreciate your effort to put everything together.Just some thoughts on what I read before, I am trying to keep it short.@Having higher entry feeIf the entry fee is higher, that would surely be discouraging to enter. As long as daily task is not removed it would only be painfully punishing, no use. Even with daily task removed "lower level" bimbos would use up most of their money on the fee and not be able to use it for the outfit. Not my favourite.@preselectionFor reasons explained by a bunch of people a preselection is a very complicated thing. Sure, no ball gowns in this case, but as mentioned before: it would have killed creativity and many really good outfits.@descriptionI do not think the description is too long and or too complex. I see no harm in people who do not read or understand it. People are like this, nobody said everyone had a right to be a DQDC winner despite not speaking english enough to understand the description or to make the effort to read it.@excluding senatorsI am not a senator and presumably I will never be. But if I was, that suggestion would really piss me off. Senators are the ones who pay for this site, which I don't. Sure they have other advantages, but senators are those who pay so I can play for free. I would not like to exclude them from fun or competition. You support the site more than any other bimbo (financially) and the result is getting punished into having a huge load of work and not being allowed to play the main event of the month? sheesh.@preselection againin the light of the above: if there are really thousands of entries preselection is not feasable regardless if we all think the task is feasable for ten people. I can surely sort out not fitting entries among 50 entries. But not among thousands.@himbos / senatorsHaving the contest work with different groups of players seems a good idea to me. Have the level xx-plus bimbos compete against each other and the smaller ones against each other and have an extra himbo section. That would even out the competition really thorough and result in much fairer contestI hope I thought of everything I wanted to add ^^I am glad this discussion is going on.
Thank you for putting it all together so nicely!...

I totally agree that the names should be removed. I'm not sure about the others but I personally just vote based on what looks good to me. As for suggestions how about something similar to the Fights? Showing 2 bimbos each for 10-15 rounds? So we are not limited to just 1 vote per day. And then the bimbos with highest votes advance to the final rounds? Something similar to the app game called"Star Girl"? I hope what I said makes sense hahahGood suggestions, that would make the DGFC more interesting.
