| Freddy | ABSTAIN | I didn't find enough time to test this. |
| Antibody | NONE | |
| Arch | YES | |
| bones_was_here | NO | it's a mixture of one good change (bouncedamagefactor) one kludge with problematic side effects (edgedamage) and one change i couldn't get tested since it was added after more than half the vote duration already elapsed (refire) |
| Cloudwalk | NONE | |
| divVerent | NONE | |
| Dr. Jaska | YES | This seems to greatly improve crylink's damage consistency and removes weird almost no damage dealt when full volley should hit scenarios without seemingly buffing it too much based on some testing. |
| Halogene | NONE | |
| illwieckz | NONE | |
| LegendGuard | YES | |
| Morosophos | NONE | |
| MrBougo | NONE | |

| Silent | YES | What SPLAT and Jaska said. |
| SPLAT | YES | This change makes sense from a standard of consistency which all weapons should have. I hope this segways into another balance discussions in the future and would only serve as a step forward towards polishing gameplay. I have tested Jaska's proposal in private with him and it certainly feels like an improvement. Overall, approaching weapon balance with more of a mindset of functionality and consistency is key, rather than tweaking damage values or artifically hampering weapons abilities is what I look for in proposed changes. While there will be exceptions to that rule, in this situation I believe it fits perfectly. |
| Spike29 | NONE | |
| terencehill | YES | since it's harder than expected fixing crylink so that when a spike hits the enemy then the other spikes that are automatically exploded explode at the correct distance and not 1 frame distance behind, I vote yes as this change makes the weapon more consistent |
