I was thinking... we need one more poll: who's the prettiest girl, since it's different from cute and hot. cute is mostly for young girls, and hot for olders, but face prettyness is universal I believe. Something to consider...
It's mostly a fan self-preservation measure, just like we don't have a straight out "favourite member" poll
See, even if your favourite totally fails the cuteness poll, you can think "well, she may not be the cutest, but she's pretty otherwise!" or when it comes to hotness, "well, my favourite isn't the hottest, but she's definitely cute and just got screwed by being over 18!" But if your favourite fails a poll about prettiness... ";____; Are you saying Eripon is ugly?"
And yeah, it's a tradition.

We have had one poll for ranking looks generally tho, which is the epic Pentagon poll:
http://forum.jphip.com/index.php?topic=33015.0I haven't run it this year because I'm not sure there's enough interest, but I wouldn't mind running it again
The hardest part is always getting enough votes for the results to mean something.
