Request for Feedback and Suggestions

[boundbooks]

Government Cats, I've noticed that participation is going down, down, down for both voting and entering. However, I'm really not sure why. So, instead of guessing wildly, I'd love it if you could take the time to fill out a poll or drop a comment on this entry!

It would be very much appreciated, so that I can determine either a) what changes I should make or b) if interest is so low that governmentcontrolledcats should end earlier than expected. Right now I'm not sure which is the case, so please let me know through the poll or a comment!

Your entries were super appreciated! :D

I'm hoping that the poll results will shed some light on how things can best be improved. So far it's looking like people want more time, which is easily arranged.

No worries for you, though, because action sequences were only scheduled to be on the menu once! :D

Thank you so much for the feedback! :D
