in reply to Re^2: poll ideas quest 2013
in thread poll ideas quest 2013

Well, I think I did. Did'nt it say
1. Post a new note in the poll ideas quest 2013 thread, containing your suggested poll.
2. Send a message to the pollsters (/msg pollsters) pointing them at your new note in the poll ideas quest 2013 thread.
3. Go on about your life as if nothing has happened. 

So I satisfied number 1. As to your complaint Did you not bother to read How do I create a Poll? or fail to understand it?

Are you referring to item #2? If so, the only people who would know I didn't /msg the pollsters, would be the pollsters themselves. So if you are a pollster, you already know my suggested idea, why should I /msg you now? :-) Is this the government or something? :-)

    So maybe you scanned it. At least we have confirmation that you are unaware of the part you missed. Here, I'll help you:
    1. ...
    2. Draft the complete wording of your poll. No one will do it for you. Polls have the following pieces:
      • Question/topic - this becomes the node title and so cannot include links or html
      • Prologue paragraph (optional)
      • One or more choices
    3. Post a new note in ...
    4. ...
    5. ...
    You didn't post a suggested poll. You posted a suggested poll title.

      Oh, sorry, I see my error there, but I changed my mind now, and don't have any poll ideas anymore.

        It's ok. We can all just skip to #5 and go on about our lives as if nothing has happened.
