Poll Anon or Not Anon

Hey BB,

I clicked both for the second question, because I can see good reasons for either. Anon prompting makes sure that prompts get chosen instead of people. You know, like, people you like and who are known well could be more likely to be chosen because of who they are and not because of their prompt. So if the prompts were anon, it'd be all about the prompt and its merrit and not the prompter.

On the other hand, knowing who the prompt is from could help make it more perfect for the promptee, although... since this is no gift exchange... *has lost train of thought*

Just to weigh in as a nobody anybody knows, I agree with your first thought - prompts get picked instead of people.

I often think anon fests are more fun, because it puts everyone on a level playing field, but also because I like guessing polls at the end!

It can be so hard to do anonymous art; people have very recognisable styles. As for the prompting, when that bunny bites, it doesn't matter who gave it the lettuce.
But, hooray! for art!
