/gd/ winter 2019 roster poll results
The Winter 2019 /gd/ Roster Poll++ got 12 votes, all valid. The thread ran as a Kerning image dump thread for one week (January 14th to the 21st) without incident.
The poll was formatted as a 7 question survey as opposed to a more simple yay/nay player vote. Because of the comfy pace of /gd/ players are actively taken from suggestions given during the poll, and not presented as option in the poll itself. This survey saw many more player suggestions than any previous poll, and marks the first time that not all player suggestions will be acted upon. Unsigned players from this poll will appear in the next poll as an option to be picked up then.

1 No idea but it's been fun 2 If there's a rematch with the teams that already have Kernings, will the Kerning be reused or will you >redesign them? /vr/ - low poly kerning /bant/ - holding fishe /3/ - abstract polygon art 3 Blocky pixely Kerning for /vr/. 4 Maybe give demon Kerning gag boobs for /d/? Or change the small Kerning's tail to that of a devil's? 5 the great leap forward
Any other thoughts/feelings/hot takes/shitposts? [5 respondents abstained from shitposting]
1 plz do good /gd/ 2 /gd/ is always fun to watch, win or lose, so thank you for that. The Kernings are cute too! 3 Good luck in Winter and onward, hope you figure everything out in time. 4 I feel like Logo Redesign could use a redesign. There were quite a few threads on it recently, maybe a collage of the brands or something? Love the Kernings.

Takeaways
- The grand majority of people still choose to say the team needs only a few new players. Because counting the second goalkeeper as one of those players is kinda lame three players will be leaving /gd/ and three others will be joining:
Edit This Face is sacked. He first played in Winter 15 and is the oldest retiring player this wave.- Long Shadow Faggotry is sacked. He first played in Spring 15 and was /gd/ sole surviving cardhead.
- Aesthetic Flags of the World is sacked. He will end up a one cup wonder who only played in Summer 18.
Comfy Bonfire joins. This player represents the existential dread and shitposting in realizing that getting a degree in Graphic Design is sometimes a fucking meme in this dark world of minimalistic corporatism. At least that diploma can keep you warm!- A Fine Arts/Archtecture Thread Representative will join. /gd/ has finally realized that graphic design is artistic design, and is built upon lessons learn over millennia in classical art and architecture. Name is not finalized.
- Untitled-1.jpg will get a go as the secondary keeper. I guess because we all crave death a little bit...
- Minimalism has trimphed over >>>/wsr/ and all other takers to retain the second silver position.
- People were out for blood this time! In Summer the average respondent offered 1.33 players for removal, this time it was 2.42!
- People are still answering the write ins. We had some real discussion in the thread too. Productive! Good!
