Fomos has recently opened up a poll that asked 3 questions to their users.

So far, here are the questions and responses:

Question 1. What's the best BoX format for SPL?
1. Keep 5 days per week and Bo7: 708 votes (57.2%)
2. Change it to Bo5 but keep it 5 days per week: 143 votes (11.6%)
3. Change it to Bo5 and 3~4 days per week: 241 votes (19.5%)
4. Other: 146 votes (11.8%)

Question 2. Winnersleague. Change or keep?
1. Keep it 2 rounds, just like previous season: 529 votes (44.9%)
2. Change it to 1 round: 531 votes (45.1%)
3. Take it out of SPL: 101 votes (8.5%)
4. Other: 16 votes (1.4%)

Question 3. StarCraft 2: if KeSPA runs SC2 league, when's the best possible timing?
1. We don't need it: 565 votes (44.2%)
2. For now, play BW and gradually move into SC2 (co-existance): 469 votes (36.7%)
3. Start SC2 right now: 233 Votes (18.2%)
4. Other: 11 votes (0.9%)


So given these 3 questions, I'm going to ask Teamliquid the same questions. (Though I'm not expecting a good poll result for question 3 since putting the question here is kind of biased.)

A SC2 poll, this should be fun.

Anyway, I'm of the opinion that more BW is best!

Interesting polls. Well, i agree with the Fomos peeps on the first poll As much as BW as possible is great, so no changes IMO.

About the SC2 poll, i would vote 2&3. Though, instead of SC2 league, i would like a new BW league or that MSL would stay.

Keep 5 days a week, bo7
Change it to one round(its ridicilous how KT went 16-2, or 18-3 or whatever it was and had an abyssmal regular pro-league season yet still finished with a #3 spot in the playoffs)

Don't really need SC2 right now but it would be nice to see as long as it does not in any way, shape or form affect the BW proscene.

3-4 days, bo7 is fine.

the 5-day proleague was to accomodate the 12 teams, but going back to 8, makes it so much logical to reduce the number of days being played.

Definitely Bo7, but 3-4 days is probably better.

I don't mind two rounds of Winners League, so long as they are not consecutively. A format where the Loser stays could be hilarious too, but maybe that's better suited for All Star games.

I've got no real opinion on the SC2 thing. I would be happy if coexistence was possible.

It kinda depends on if MBC is sticking around, 2 matches per day probably won't work that well if it's only broadcast on OGN. People probably aren't going to watch 5 hours of straight brood war every day

Other: Bo7, 4 days.
One round of WL.
KeSPA to gradually transition into co-managing both SC games (BW and 2).

What the hell? Does no one care about the progamers' condition? Reduce the playdays, let them rest -.-

That being said:
3-4 days a week, maybe even 2. Bo7, encourage teams to develop their entire lineup instead of relying on aces.
Winner's League should just be one round. Dunno about time placement, seems like where it was this past season was fine.
We don't need no frackin' SC2!

2 per week won't even help you finish Proleague with min 5 rounds (with MBC not streaming SPL)

They recently started doing so, but many people still hangout on playxp. SC2 players (non-progamers i should say... or non-progamers and progamers) do check fomos however, as fomos is THE biggest esports related website in Korea afaik.
