Sign-up
You can sign up for the Touhou Popularity Poll by clicking "Issue Voting ID". You will then fill in your email in the first textbox, and optionally your previous voting ID in the second textbox (see below).
Of course, you can also sign up with Google or Twitter if you so desire.
If you used the "Issue Voting ID" method, it might take some time, but you should receive an email containing your voting ID. You will use this voting ID to fill in your votes.
Voting
After issuing your ID, click on "Vote Now" either at the bottom of the main page, or in the navigation menu on the left.
Choose your category from the big buttons to start voting!
Each voting form will look like this. The first textbox is for your voting ID. The second one is, optionally, your nickname.
The characters, music and works are in English as of this year! This makes voting much easier. Everything is chronologically ordered.
The first one gets 2 points, all others get 1 point. The second textbox for each item is optional; you can fill in additional comments there.
For the questionnaire, there is a translation of the 2023 iteration on the main page on this site: https://maribelhearn.com/thvote#questionnaire.
At the bottom, there is a checkbox. If you check it, you agree to potentially having your comments featured on the Touhou Station stream. Leave it unchecked if you do not want to be part of it.
Submitting supporting fanworks
To submit a supporting fanwork for a character, navigate to "Support Works" using the navigation menu on the left.
