- The proposed cycle assigns a week each to submissions, swipe voting, finalist voting, and announcing one winner.
Field notes
The proposed monthly cycle is divided into weekly phases, with submissions followed by randomized yes-or-no swipes and a finalist vote. The page says finalist totals stay hidden until voting closes and specifies Eastern time; it also notes that browsing needs no account, while voting is limited to one vote per account. Giveaways and paid local copies are described as later additions, and the first vote has not yet taken place.
