Why do the pollsters ignore the SP community?
Every CivII poll to date has been about some aspect of MP, perhaps it should be renamed the MP poll?

You raise a valid point. One of the reasons is that MarkG asks me for suggestions... and I play FAR more MP than SP.
So, to better balance things out...
What types of questions would you like to ask?
If people can agree on a few good ones, I'll make sure they are brought to the attention of the Admin here. While I can make no guarantees... I will say that MarkG has always been very responsive. Plus, he is always looking for good poll questions
So bring em on!

Ming, can we have a poll to see which SP questions we should have polls on?

Maybe a poll on Activision's latest stunt and how people react to it (maybe expand it to game manifacturers in general?)

I vote for St.Leo's idea. Those are some of things I would like to know.

Do you prefer to win by
-Conquest
-Alpha Centauri
Which government do you generally prefer
-Anarchy
-Despotism
-Monarchy
-Communism
-Fanaticism
-Republic
-Democracy
(You could probably omit the first two, but it might be interesting to see if they got any takers)

This is so ironic. The SP community wants polls. The MP community would prefer to be left alone

Mark and Dan,
One of the things I like on the FreeCiv site is that their poll always seems to include a frivolous "other" response. I suppose this could become tiresome after a while, but I found it amusing. Using one of my earlier topics for an example:
What is the earliest you have ever reached AC?
o Before AD500
o Before AD1000
o Before AD1500
o Before AD1750
o Before AD1900
o You can reach AC?
Note to casual readers: this is only meant as an example. Do not respond to this poll!

You know Alexander was very much in love with his horse.
It was rumored they did funny things.
Much more than the horse could handle. They say it messed up its mind pretty bad

Probably true - Greeks are notorious for doing funny stuff with animals

Unfortunately I don't know Alexander's Horse location for sure, but I can say this: Stop the suffering of the kangourous.
