[QUOTE="Graf, post: 4427415, member: 3087"] On one hand I like your poll and it would save time. On the other it's close to 30 different specific items; and while you've done a yeoman's effort of getting everything in there's still a lot left. Alll told it' would be a pretty complex poll Just to point out something obvious: there is no formatting on polls, its just line after line after line of text. You can do stuff like Player points.... do not exist ..... are given out for x ..... are given out for y ..... DM points.... ..... ..... .... to try to break it up, but sometimes that threatens to make individual poll questions weird or confusing. (maybe it's just a problem I have with my brain not writing good questions) And each point above is fairly complex... like someone could think that 50 xp is too much, or two little, or that it should be 10 characters per point, or that you should be able to spend on a character but the cap should be tiered based on whether it's a 1st level character or that the system should be time phased.... So one person will vote no but then post that they mean "no as written" and someone else will vote "yes but I want to change" and the third person will select another option. [d]--[/d] I guess what I'm saying is that there are people who seem to idelogically opposed to certain things (player points) and interested in having a complex discussion about other stuff (DM points). It's tricky to do both in one poll. And if someone's against it all then I think having an "against it all" option is easy. It's a clear simple choice for that person to make instead of forcing them to wade through lots of different questions. That's why I was leaning toward that would be better in two polls... an ideological sort of one that teases out what the community finds acceptable and then a specific sort of one to see how the idea gets implimented. And they have repucussions too.... If there are lots of ways to get points then caps become more important, etc. [d]--[/d] Having it over and done in one shot would be nice though.... Is there a limit to the number of poll questions we can have? Would a 40 item poll be workable? [/QUOTE]
