Synopsis
To condense the method, remember SOVAT
Submission phase:
- Forumers are allowed to submit their concepts to the poll. (~44 days)
Overviewing phase
- Moderators overlook submissions and remove any that violate the Role/Concept Poll Guidelines sufficiently. (1 day)
Voting phase
- Forumers vote for their favourite concepts, with the bottom third of concepts being removed. (15 days)
Analysis phase
- Balancers in the Discord judge the concepts and add the most balanced concepts to the Testing Grounds. (15 days)
Testing phase
- Tests are hosted featuring the roles and decided whether they work. (15-60 days)
Roles which do not get through each of the stages automatically get added into the next poll.
If a concept for the third time in a row does not get as far as the Analysis phase, that concept is then immediately removed.
- If that concept is then submitted again, the creator will have had to fix the mechanic or ability in the concept which lead to it being rejected thrice.

Also, please vote for the most balanced and not the ones you "like".
Roles that have no number beside them are roles that have newly been submitted for the next poll.
