General Discussion Popularity Poll

Post Post #0 (ISO) » Fri Apr 26, 2024 7:11 pm

Post by Ariel »

Welcome to the General Discussion Popularity Poll (GDPP), an event thread that takes inspiration from the Speakeasy User Popularity Poll (SUPP) that was traditionally held annually in June.

What is the GDPP
?
In this event, site users are able to vote on nominated items on a scale from 0 to 10. Then all votes are compiled and the poll results will be revealed.

What is meant by nominated items?

While the SUPP involved voting for Speakeasy posters, the GDPP covers a wider range of subjects. Site users will be able to nominate one item to appear on the poll. This can be a person, place, thing, event, idea, meme, activity, etc. So, it is possible that we could be voting on anything from pizza to Oppenheimer on the same poll. A restriction on nominations for the GDPP will be that site users cannot nominate site users other than themselves to appear in the poll (sorry N!)

How do I vote in the poll?

A Google form will be posted in early June.

How do I nominate an item?

Prior to June, either PM/DM to Ariel or post
Nominate: item
in the thread. You can change your pick up until the deadline.

Will GDPP feature a theme/teams like the SUPP?

It can if there is sufficient interest. Before May 25th, people can
propose/2nd/nth
suggested themes by posting in this thread. The most nth'd theme will be used and will allow teams to be incorporated based on the theme. Examples of SUPP themes were trees, Pokemon and chemical elements (hence the Neon dream.) Historically, teams provided a way to structure reveal hints and created groups to frivolously root for.

Will there be a puzzle hunt or other fun Discord activities?

I do not have anything planned at this time, but I would welcome if someone would be interested in leading that sort of thing!
