Translation Idea
0
Given the Fakku translation team agrees, I was thinking maybe once a month or whenever the hell you guys are indecisive on what manga to translate next, Fakku could host a front page poll with nominated picks from the staff, and whatever wins out will be you guy's next project.
I wanna reiterate that it doesn't have to be too frequent, you could just do it once and scrap the whole thing if you don't like it. I just wanted to present the concept, so take what you will from it. My reason being that the same poll has been on Fakku for 2 months, and not only that, its a repost, I just wanna help keep this site fresh and exciting.

yeah,getting the users involved in a project or two would be nice.
but it's up to the scanlation team.

Hmm. It's not that I don't like the idea, but more because it wouldn't work. I mean, if I (or Nikon) feel that something is worth translating, it happens. Nominating projects kinda defeats that purpose because if it's already that awesome to be nominated, we might as well just do it, or if you guys end up picking something that we don't like, then it becomes an obligation to meet the needs of the community and translate it even if we don't have to. I'd rather members of the team enjoy what they do rather than have them work on something requested by others (yes, even you lovely members of the community), and it's something I've always felt very strongly for.
I do agree that the poll needs to be changed, and if I remember the next time we talk I'll get Jacob to change it.

Agreed, I was thinking of the exact same obstacle as I was writing this, my main point was to indirectly tell Jacob to fucking change the poll topic, I'm bored!
