Zelc said:The problem is when people post on other forums and places saying "Hey, register here and vote for my build named XYZ please!" Epic Meepo's solution is really the best way of doing it if you want a poll. Otherwise, I think a poll might be a bad idea, or you could pick one "community favorite" and one "judge's favorite", or some other way of reducing the influence of the poll.
That might be an idea, run a community favorite contest and normal judging too. I will wait to see what the enworld moderators say.
