[Poll] Multiple Polls

Daen·Sep 3, 2014·8 votes·1,679 views

In which there is a poll that polls about multiple polls, to make sure that our polls poll well and that more than one poll can create better polling when a user wants to poll.

Hi,

Would it be possible for us to be able to include multiple polls on a single thread? Using a thread I made in Miscellaneous as an example, I would love to be able to ask the following two questions in two separate polls on the same thread:

Do you actively involve yourself in Leagues?
Do you consider fixing Leagues to be worth doing?

It could also be useful for allowing players to create surveys or grab haphazard data samples without needing a third party website like strawpoll.

I don't see why not :)

Yes, but only if the polls were displayed in a manner that made sense for multiple polls. The current output wouldn't really work too well -- overflow of information.

I was essentially thinking stacking them on top of each other, similarly to how Markup logically functions.

Ideally, the actual internal formatting could allow for polls. It could even go back to vbulletin a bit and use bracketed characters.

What are your thoughts on strong organization to prevent overflow?

I think being able to cycle through multiple polls would be interesting. For example, polls are just located in a body and you can use tabs to move between them. Think of it like a code IDE, albeit more pretty.

If you want to compare all of the data at the same time, maybe there could be a view for that as well. Or, as you said, just stack them.
