Poll for July 09 Arbella Group Morphs

[Rox]

This poll is for the Arbella animorphs that have been hired by SPECTER only. Please vote for your top two choices if you plan on participating in the thread where they are acquired. And I can see who is voting, so no cheating.

Note: The choices above were the ones that seemed most popular among the Arbella members in the brainstorming thread and through PMs (Rox, Mark, Johnny, and Leopold).

So this may seem a silly question, but do non-SPECTER Animorphs get some kind of counter-balance? Seems unfair for Raven and I to be a few morphs behind you guys just because we're not in the club.

It's not so silly, actually. The situation with the Group Morphs is a little tricky for the characters Darwin and Sarah since neither of them are actually in a group with other morphers. I don't feel like they should be left out of the group morph system, because that is unfair. And I can't exactly just say that they each get their own group morph either because giving out a group morph to a group of one is the same as giving them a freebie morph, and the other characters don't get that same luxury. They have to decide as a group what they want to acquire, or should acquire, and come to a consensus. Not only that, but they also have to participate in the thread that the morph is used in in order to get the morph.

So here is what I decided I am going to do. This first time around Darwin and Sarah are allowed to have one of their pre-planned morphs taken off of their 'wait list.' This means Darwin can acquire his next new morph at 10 posts, and Sarah can acquire her next new morph at 35 posts. But that is only for the July 09 Group Morph.

In the future, I think it will have to be decided on a case-by-case basis. In the unfortunate possible event that one or both of those two characters become largely inactive, I don't really want to reward them with a 'free' morph. And who knows, next time you may actually need to get the same group morph as the resident animorphs.

I'm sure this solution isn't totally fair, one way or the other, but hopefully it is fair enough. Any questions or comments from anyone can be posted here, or else you can send me a PM.

Who's Raven?
