You know, now that I look at that poll again, I miss an option:

None of the above!

That would have solved a lot of problems...

New poll options would be:
  • Here
  • There
  • None of the above

See how simple life can be?

Not so simple. As soon as that poll was posted someone would have asked for the option "all of the above". Others would have asked, "when are you talking about, right now or last week or next month? It would go on and on with moderators having to update your poll.

This is MR, nothing is simple here.

Isn't that right desertgrandma?

WDE.

I believe, but don't quote me on this, that MR polls only allow you to check a box, with no room to add text. I suppose they could qualify their response by posting a comment to the poll thread. Knowing MR, everyone would choose your latest suggestion, then specify in detail why they fall into that category.

actually that would be a good solution, however we seem to have run out of space in the poll (no more options can be added). i would have to remove one of the existing ones first. should i do that ? if so, which one ? (maybe we should make a poll...)
