I may have a go at writing the Smash Ballot article, that being said, certainly not yet, and I also am struggling to think how to talk about this subject to a slightly larger audience, some of whom probably will have never as much as considered the idea of the ballot being bad, without coming off as vindictive or judgemental and without criticising any specific character picks (I will absolutely discuss the Banjo-Geno/Chief-Sephiroth disparity, which being neutral about is gonna be EXTREMELY difficult). It also might depend a bit on the nature of the application, I don't want to be giving away my email address or such.
