Would you guys be interesting in comms this way?

General
I noticed I didn't get anyone to fill the form for a full illustration spot (which I found funny that the sketch spots filled when it was the opposite before, lol), and I'm sure it's because of it being "I choose who I'll draw" (though someone did later note me asking if they could have the spot, and it worked out. XD)
But I thought of another idea that might be better for when I open next time!
So what do you think of this idea?
It will go back to being "first come first serve", but you'd have to have at least two ideas, or a few different characters for me to choose from! Could even show me your characters (if you have more than one) and let me choose, and we can go from there, OR if you only have one character you could share a few different ideas.
I want to try this, because there have been times where clients may have certain characters that REALLY interest me, but they end up having me draw a character I may feel more neutral towards.
Or there's certain situations I rather like that I've seen a client be interested in as well, but they may have me do something I may not be strong on/experienced with/nervous about. This doesn't happen too often, but I'd like to give myself more choice if possible!
Many times when I commission people I like to show several characters to see who they are most interested in, cuz I want the artist to enjoy it as well. So I wanted to try the swap around where it's people doin that to me, too!
Otherwise if this isn't that interesting for people I may try to do more YCH things again.
Of course that doesn't mean I am completely going away from people telling me a single idea with a specific character, cuz it may still work out great anywho! I just wanna try this out for next time. :0

FA+

Though maybe this idea isn't that wanted cuz no one else commented. @_@
I would certainly have written a request.
I guess what I'm probably coming across as is a picky person. Who's point of view don't mean much because I'm on the verge of financial crisis and couldn't spare the funds to com an artist. And I'm almost never conscious/online when coms go live either. Sorry for the long winded response.
I'm a very picky person so I've slowly felt more as if I shouldn't commission others, cuz they'll get frustrated with me (or I get that sense from their responses).
If I can reine the ideas its maybe better. so I have good idea if you opend. And you get not a lot of Requests, With ideas that you don't draw.
But I like this to give a Artist some options to draw.
But sometimes I have only one Idee for this style.
