GameKnot related: Weekly or monthly GK polls

From	Message
chess_avenger 30-Apr-10, 23:40	Weekly or monthly GK polls I think weekly or monthly polls would be great. It is a small feature that shows peoples opinions in a fast way. Ive been here a long time so pardon my memory but I believe there were polls done in the past. Maybe bring them back? For example one poll could be: Which web browser do you use? Internet Explorer? Mozilla FF? Chrome? Safari? Opera? Other? or How old are you? 13-19? 20-30? 30-40? 40-50? 50+? etc What do you guys think of this?
kingdawar 30-Apr-10, 23:42	They already know
chess_avenger 30-Apr-10, 23:45	They already know the answers to the possible questions? (As in website statistics counters?) or do you mean someone has already asked about this?
maca 01-May-10, 04:14	I'd rather see regular polls to determine how the players would like to see this site to be developed further. Regards, MaCa.
tugger 01-May-10, 04:52	I'd like a poll to decide if we want polls.
chess_avenger 01-May-10, 16:56	polls maca I was just giving some examples but what you propose is also good.
black_cat_hamlet 02-May-10, 02:14	well, to be perfectly honest... I can't see any problems with GK as it is... maybe the polls could be on new additions to the site?
baronderkilt 02-May-10, 04:02	Polls can be okay ... Hopefully they might encourage more forum discussion of some topics; and not replace it as a practical matter.[Tho I don't think there would be much difference that way, in either direction.] * It can be fun just to know what the membership is thinking about certain subjects of opinion or fact. Timely now might be: 1. Who do you want to win the WC , aor ... to see who gathers the most favorable opinions. 2. Who do you believe Will win the WC ... seeing how accurate we may be in forecasting this. * I suppose this could be asked in a Forum thread tho. Or we could even start a POLL THREAD; perhaps having all the poll Questions in it. Then Answers put into a separate thread for each topic raised there !? ************* 3. What past player(s) do the present WC contenders most remind you of !? 4. Who is the most < insert-adjective > Chess Manager or of all time, individual aor team: A. Danialov B.Kotov C.Botvinnik D.Rustam Kamsky E.Mr Polgar F.Bobby Fischer (self) G. Other___________ H.Etc. ******* The thing there is that I am not quite sure what Adjective(s) might be the most interesting or perhaps revealing. Some thoughts: Best, Crafty, Effective, Diabolical, Ridiculous, Proper, Far-Out, Anal-Retentive, Daring, WC-conscious, Highly Rated Elo, et al etc etc !?
