Multiple Polls per Poll?

[Epistax]

Captain: It would have to be a yes/no for each. I see where you're getting with confusion, but being forced to vote for something because you like the other things with it (first way) is absurd. That is how modern bills are done in the US and I find it horrid.

As far as someone voting yes and no on the same option, all that does is hurt how that person wanted to vote, and no one else. It's weaker than both a yes and a no, so it can't be used for malicious intent. Accidently voting for both yes and no is simply another way of accidently voting for yes instead of no, or reverse, just doesn't hurt as much,

Edit: It would be quite easy to make an understandable poll like this. Options such as:
Cheese is good: YES
Cheese is good: NO
I like cows: YES
I like cows: NO
Shouting SPOOOON makes you cool: YES
Shouting SPOOOON makes you cool: NO

As long as such polls are very clear, which I am not convinced they would be.

For example, civman's BOR poll had several options.

Item A yes
Item A no
Item B yes
Item B no
Item C yes
Item C no

In which case it would need to allow multiple votes, but multiple votes would also allow people to vote yes and no to the same issue, or to accidentally only vote yes to one and not vote for any others, which would deprive them of the chance to vote on the other issues.

Yes, it is possible this would work fine and be completely clear, but I am not convinced a Bush-Gore Florida situation would not occur. What? I voted for who? I thought I was voting for something else!

I also don't think it's a major problem. IF the amendments are minor enough not to warrant their own separate poll, then they're not important to warrant separate amendments. Make them one amendment. If they're minor, it'll likely pass anyways.

Or perhaps I'm not understanding what you mean by grouping amendments.

Do you mean:

Pass Amendments 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12?
Yes
No

Or separate Yes/No for each amendment?

The first way is better.

hi ,

, intresting , a mix with the best of each would do it

that example you brought up was also good

have a nice day

Is this an amendment to the CoL?

I don't think so. There certainly isn't any text that would go in the CoL. I think Epistax just wanted to establish this type of poll as an acceptable format, so that the court doesn't have to worry about their validity.

This poll is now past. To recap, people need no longer to fear when making multiple official polls under a single thread, as long as each individual poll follows the rules!

Okay maybe a spupid question , but what are the rule's ?

[Epistax]

As the poll stated, each individual poll in the thread must follow the COL, whatever they may say. Every poll must be explained in the first post, every option in every poll must be explained (aside from yes and no).

This way if the COL gets updated with new poll rules, they follow straight through to these.
