Poll overdose?

[Cheiromancer]

Just came over from General. 11 polls on the first page!

I was strongly tempted to start a poll of my own as to whether there were too many polls.

But I resisted. Go me.

I am very disappointed that there is no poll here

Hm. Right now, there's 7 polls on the 1st page of GD:

Dragonlance, do you like it? (79 replies; by mcrow)
Best magic system (75 replies; by interwyrm)
AC or DR (68 replies; by interwyrm)
Classes & levels or point-buy (84 replies; by interwyrm)
Do you like your gaming books signed? (29 replies; by Ghostwind)
How much of your collection do you use? (24 replies; by Pinotage)
Would you give your 2nd level party 30k gold? (134 replies; by Crothian)

Judging from the number of replies, most of these are discussions that happen to include a poll. So... Looks okay to me so far. Although... 3 of these 7 polls were started by the same poster.

Now, if there's a lot of polls on the 2nd page as well, there sometimes might be more than that on page 1 (e.g., like the 11 the OP mentioned), so let's look at that as well.

On the 2nd page as well, we have 8 polls:

Goblins colour a bad move? (17 replies; by Thunt)
Hexes or squares? (53 replies; by interwyrm)
Contested rolls vs. target numbers? (2 replies; by interwyrm)
Do you require your players to think? (52 replies; by Crothian)
Thursday night game of what? (21 replies; by Crothian)
Which dice method is best? (21 posts; by interwyrm)
Which on-line SRD do you use? (90 posts; by Sage)
Would this be as inappropriate as I think? (108 replies; by philreed)

Looking at the thread starters, we seem to have a pollmaster general among us. I'll ask interwyrm to slow it down.
