Fate of January American FNF

Due to the considerable significance of Jupiterian CTF on the American FNF Poll, we are letting the community decide of what will happen for American FNF. (Jupictf already won on Euro by a landslide, that will be hosted regardless.)

There are two options for you to pick:

1. American FNF is to use whatever wins the poll, no matter what wad it is.

2. American FNF is to NOT host jupictf, and instead run whatever runner up is highest in votes

For those who haven't seen JupiCTF, the reason we're having this poll is that Jupiterian CTF is quite unconventional, and we're not sure we'd like to thrust it upon both FNFs, never having run it for FNF in the past.

However, in the spirit of the poll, we'd like to decide the winning WAD by popular vote and preserve the result of the poll as much as possible, hence this here poll.

I think it is absurd, gimmicky, and people will probably get tired of the humor 5 minutes in

Terrible pick as far as I'm concerned, for what Legion said.

It does have creative gameplay, including monsters, doors requiring keys, plasmabump flags, actual use of berserk, and a new weapon and powerup, to name a few features.

I found a lot of the maps nearly unplayable (like a Chillax level of monsters in flagroom one map, one of them having the ground constantly changing level with tons of missing textures, a dark maze, and such), many walls missing textures and thus making things confusing, and at best some maps were barely playable at best.
