Is it time for another increasment?

24 (for all civs in PTW) or even better 32 (I just like that number) would be good

hey panag, did you cut down on the comma's?

oh, number of poll options?
uhmm yeah, more would be better.

Gramphos · June 9, 2002, 13:00

The truth is that I needed 28 for a Pol in the Civ3 dem game, which made me post this. However, I made three polls instead.

People use too many poll choices as it is.

If you really need to have extra poll choices, allow (or require) some sort of branching. I'm serious. People should group thier choices. Use a logic tree. Etc. Stefu should be buttwhipped for his poll on Russia.

hi ,

No GP. Stefu shouldn't be buttwhipped for that poll.

He should be buttwhipped for principal reasons, but for that poll he should be hanged.

32 sounds good, then you don´t have to leave out bands when you do a "Do you own albums from these [insert music style here] groups"-thread

more = better

Ecthy · June 9, 2002, 17:26

more = less quality

August Borms · June 9, 2002, 17:35

There's no correlation between quantity of poll options and quality of polls

Gramphos · June 9, 2002, 18:04

Would there be a way to set the limit to per forum status?

No 16 is heaps

Gramphos · June 10, 2002, 13:35

What about doing something like

(with reservation for variable names)

PHP Code:


if ($forumid==154) {

    $maxoptionsinpoll=32;

}

Exactly! There´s nothing that says you have to use all 32 options...

Gangerolf · June 10, 2002, 17:57

someone should make a poll about this

, but with how many choices? hmm

2, obviously.

Option 1: Maximum of 32 options in poll.
Option 2: Maximum not 32 options in poll.

aaglo · June 11, 2002, 09:41

Just live with 16 options... nobody wouldn't have the patience to read all 32 options. Let alone pic one from the 32 options (the one that truly corresponds his/hers ideas/likings/whatever)
