three days is an unusually long time for a Ticket to remain unanswered even accounting for staff off-days. Try posting again on it or opening a Ticket about your TIcket.
You are way better off asking staff about Rules instead of us folk who hang out here in Help & Questions. Since you only get one account here, I myself would err on the side of caution and not do it until I heard back.
From what I could tell there's only one mod that replies to these type of tickets (the one that answered mine redirected it to this person) so maybe they're not available right now. I'll definetely wait until I get an answer, I was hoping maybe somoene would know cause they've done it or asked about it in the past, thank you for your help =)
Like , said I'd wait on the response for the ticket for the art question.
However, for you second question, I see nothing wrong with creating a thread in your personal ping group and pinging your group to the thread. Maybe don't ask them to vote, but let them know about the event and where they can vote if they want to.
