Test Poll Final

Added 2022-07-12 09:46:00 +0000 UTC

So after thinking about it and seeing how the different voting methods change things, I think there are 3 different methods I could use. Which one do you think would work the best for the "A Growing Adventure" polls?

Single Choice: This is the method I have used so far. It makes the most favored option win, but it tends to make votes go overwhelmingly to the option that is already winning. So it can feel as though you would be wasting your vote not to vote for the top two options, if there is even a second close option at all.

Multiple Choice: This method would allow you to give one vote for as many of the options as you choose. This would make the voting for options a bit more even, but it would also tend to favor the more "tame" options since more people like them to some degree, and will vote for them even if it's not necessarily their favorite option.

Both: I could also try to do a multiple choice poll first, then take a few of the top options and do a single choice poll with them. I would only do this option if the poll is close, or for polls with many different options, since doing it when there are only three or four options would be rather pointless. I would also probably need to shorten the time for each of these polls to one day each instead of two, or else it would take too long to do them all.

If you have any additional thoughts on the matter, feel free to share.
