Surprise, I actually had to make this page to make a comment. Anywho... So, now that we have a bunch of poll ideas on the page, how is it decided what the next week's poll is going to be? Marcelagus (TCE)

Yeah, I want to know that too. th_DimentioSigLeft.png Dom »» McTalk th_SMKDimentiobyStooben.png

Hey, somebody read the talk page! :o *tumbleweed* Marcelagus (TCE) But on a more serious note, can somebody answer?

I'm fairly certain that it's random. — Stooben Rooben 18:14, 11 September 2008 (EDT)
Oh, wait; it says "Chosen by Preference" on the page. Must be chosen by Steve, then. Marcelagus (TCE)
I believe so; maybe by a few other Sysops. — Stooben Rooben 18:32, 11 September 2008 (EDT)
It's not going down on the sysop forum, I can say that... so unless it goes down in a secret chat room it probably is Steve or Wayoshi, who created this feature. Stumpers! 18:45, 11 September 2008 (EDT)
Steve just added a poll nomination thing at the bottom of the page; Maybe he saw this discussion. I'm thinking there should be a rule that you can't vote for your own, though; any thoughts? Marcelagus (TCE)

Subjects and Archiving

Do they have to be about Mario? At the moment, nothing is written regarding the subject of the poll. (also, as I read the poll suggestions, I have a feeling I've seen more than half of these on the forums... hmm...) Another thing: on the archives page, shouldn't we record results, as well? I mean, or else, it doesn't have much meaning... Marcelagus (TCE)
