Ballots & Voting

We just opened the first ballot ("Which Two Animals Should Get Added to Glitch Next?") So, subscribers: you can finally spend one of those votes that have been storing up (or two of them … or thirty).

We anticipate holding these kind of referendums about once a month, but that's subject to change as we see what happens.

  • Maybe I missed something, is there anywhere that gives us an idea of what the new animals might look like? I can see not telling us what the animals will give us, but would love a picture to help decide.

  • @acreditando I haven't drawn them yet! But I would be very happy if people voted for the roundest, smallest, least detailed animals for no biased reason in particular! C'mooooon teeny little rat!

    @Gizmospooky They will look like an alpaca or fox or goat or kangaroo or mole or monkey or moose or rabbit or rat or sheep or toad or sloth. Lemme know if that helps!
    But yeah, whatever animals win, we will have to hack... I mean... super thoughtfully Glitchify a way for those animals to provide the resources we are requiring for furniture crafting.

  • Kukubee > by wild, does this mean we won't be able to make eggs and put them on streets or in our homes?

  • @Kukubee left hand, right hand, circle, oval, stick stick stick stick = MOOSE. Nice and simple, an obvious choice. And it can give Glitches its antlers for...something. A sharp object to carve shapes or tack things together.

    How about a teeny flying space squiddy?  http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7039/6960429873_9245e4228e.jpg

    Actually that's my idea.  Don't steal it.  >:{

  • So many replies TL;DR so I'll just say I want a little monkey companion who can scurry up trees to harvest them for me and keep his own little backpack <3
    Posted 9 months ago by Redneck Woman Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Clearly, rats are most resourceful and best suited as craft supply providers. ;D

    Too bad I can't vote - rats need more love! [closet rodent lover]

  • I HAVE COME FROM THE FUTURE TO GIVE YOU THIS MESSAGE:

    RABBITS ARE VITAL TO THE FUTURE OF GLITCH

    IF YOU DON'T VOTE RABBITS, TERRIBLE EVENTS COME TO PASS.

  • I've not waded through all the replies here... but after voting was astonished to notice that the largest vote was for what would become the first carnivore in Glitch... no idea what a fox would give us, but my votes were for useful omnivors and herbivores with logical gifts for furniture making... go Ratties!!

    hmm me thinks perhaps there might come to pass the Glitchian Ratty Appreciation Society...

  • ok, where are the kittens and red pandas? this vote is rigged against adorableness.

  • No pictures? *sad panda face*

    Wait, no pandas???? *really sad panda face*

    How can I vote without pictures?

    Okay I voted for Kangaroos. I love their hippity hoppity ways. And the pouches. C'MON: Kangaroo pouches!!! Imagine the possibilities!!!

  • I am hoping that the silent sheep voting majority are waiting until the last second to snipe the vote!
    Posted 9 months ago by MaryLiLamb Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Sloths for the win! Also really would like toads, rats, and moles.
    But I have to ask, why wasn't the Slow Loris included when it is indisputably the cutest creature on the face of the earth?

  • Dear lovely people at Tiny Speck,

    Some of us have the worst time choosing. Can we add ALL of these animals to the game?! I was torn between three...

    SO MUCH LOVE,
    Kyle Danger

    P.S. There will be SO MUCH MORE LOVE if the "losers", should not all of these fine specimen of fauna not make the cut, be added as wardrobe (i.e., hat) options, provided they aren't already.

  • I want those creepy monkeys that sit on your shoulder, like the one on raiders of the lost ark. I can't bear the thought of rats scurrying about (I once threw a brand new iPhone on my patio and smashed it to pieces when I saw a field mouse).
    Posted 9 months ago by Troll Doll Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Sloth is so clearly the animal to beat (currently at 81.5% of the lead and rising fast). One of the other camps should really look to do a deal with the powerful Team Sloth to ensure their safe passage through as the runner-up animal.

    ETA: Less than 10 minutes later, up to 82%. Go Team Sloth
    Posted 9 months ago by Snazzlefrazz Subscriber! | Permalink
  • oh yeah, since they'll be *wild* and not available for our homes... that does change my perspective some.  Also, my votes would have definitely been different I think, had there been pictures.

    I'd vote for the most adorable.  :: nods ::
