Poll suggestion guidelines
If you enjoy playing this mini game, please help LANThrax by suggesting poll questions. When you suggest a question, it is added to a list of questions
that are up for review by top ranking members. All it takes for a question to get approved is 5 votes from level 7+ members. When a question is "approved" by 5 level 7+
members, it is automatically added to the queue of questions ready to show up. Note that only level 7+ members get to see the suggested questions, except when there is no
active question, in which case, the level requirement for approving candidate questions is lowered to level 3+.
Considering the number of questions required for this game (there is a new active question every two days), we decided that question do not necessarily
need to be related to computing or the subjects addressed in this site. However, it is important that questions are entered in grammatically correct English and that
the questions are not ambiguous. Since players can only choose from two options, it is important that the questions are not too specific. For example, instead of asking
“how old are you?” and having answers like “15 years” and “20 years”, the answers should be “Less than 20 years” and “20 and over”. That way, the players are sure to
belong to one of the categories.
Questions need to be subjective, that is, do not ask questions based on facts, but rather questions based on taste. For example, instead of
asking “With what national soccer team does Del Piero play?”, ask “What do you prefer, Soccer or Basketball?”. Remember, this is not Trivia, this is opinion.
