how many play on other sites

Anyone have suggestions for polls - "Fun" would be great, but can be serious also.

AN OPINION POLL SET UP. EXPIRES ON DECEMBER 17TH. TOPIC THE UPCOMING STAR WARS MOVIE.

Brian1971: I know... it surprised the heck out of me also. I was driving home, and "You should make a new poll on BK pop'ed into my mind" - and when a random thought hits me, I listen.

HEY A NEW OPINION POLL IS UP. STOP THE PRESSES.

Thank you very much for all the answers

ThunderGr: Also, if you have a fellowship, you can create polls inside your fellowship, for the members of your fellowship

ThunderGr: coan.net, or Tanein

Who can create polls?

almost one year no one post here yet

coan.net: new ?

political polls have you answered? a candidate topic so to speak

coan.net: Cool, maybe one with something do to with halloween or perhaps something a bit silly and random! :o)

furbster: Anyone feel free to post ideas, I'm always open to ideas. I'll try to post a new one in the next few days.

Any more polls? Need 1 more for the next achievement :o)

coan.net: Apparently not, I guess.

Right above the list, though, it says that green dot means a poll I haven't voted in, but there's no green dot by the poll. And I obviously didn't vote in it.

rod03801: Not sure, but would a green dot show up on closed ones that you did not vote in?

Just took a quick look at the one with the least amount of votes - http://brainking.com/en/OpinionPoll?poid=728

Don't see that you voted in that one, so I would guess you might have missed a few here or there maybe.

coan.net: Weird. My profile says 47/50 for polls.

Yet when I look at the list, it appears I've voted in them all. All 48 of the "closed" ones, and 3 of the new ones. (I don't see any green dots indicating I DIDN'T vote in any)

I know I don't release many polls, so to make up for it - I added 3 new Olympic polls!

http://brainking.com/en/OpinionPollList

2 are to see who you will think win the football (Soccer) gold in mens & womens. These 2 polls end SOON around August 1st, around the time the first round ends (so if you want to wait to see who is eliminated to pick....... just don't miss the deadline.)

The last is a more general one about what sport you like the most - it is scheduled to end just after the Olympics end to give a little more time to vote.


****** THIS NOW brings us up to 51 total public polls, so lets see how many people will be earning their 50th public poll Achievement! *********

Just released a new poll today - to guess which country will win the most overall medals at the 2012 Olympics in London.

http://brainking.com/en/OpinionPoll?poid=905


I found a website which had it's own predictions, and I took those top 10 countries to include in this poll.

The United States has won the most in the past 4 Olympics, but many think they will not win the most this year! Last Olympic, China won the most GOLD medals, but the United States won the most overall.

Can China pull out more total medals? Can the host country pull out more medals? Or will there be a surprise country ready to take the most medals?

And sorry in advance, I normally have a "no opinion" option in the poll, but I forgot to add it in this one (can't add answers once I released the poll) - I will try to have a default "no" answer in future polls.

ketchuplover:

thank you

alilsassy:

slightly belated kudos

coan.net: yea!!!

coan.net: UEFA EURO 2012

In case anyone is curious on the NASCAR Daytona 500 winner pole, the winner of the race was Matt Kenseth

Only 1 person picked Matt Kenseth: alilsassy

Again - feel free to post new ideas for polls here or in my message box.

Any more polls? I'm getting close to another achievement ;o)

coan.net: shame i could not vote in it

OK, another VERY SHORT POLL

http://brainking.com/en/OpinionPoll?poid=850

Who will win? Japan or USA?

Who will get 3rd place? France or Sweden?

VERY SHORT POLL - Only open a few days.

http://brainking.com/en/OpinionPoll?poid=848

Who of the 4 semi-final teams will win the FIFA Women's World Cup 2011?

MTC: Opps - forgot to add that option this time didn't I. I'm usually pretty good about remembering to put the "other" and "no opinion" options on there... but can't update once they are live.

Sorry about that.

Where’s the “None of the above” (or just “None”) option in the new circus poll?

Congrats to the 14 people out of the 279 voters to get the correct answer.

Which superhero would win in a fight?

coan.net = 14 votes.

All the rest are make believe, and I'm real - so I should be able to win in a fight! :-)

Should a player win by timeout if it is impossible to fulfil the victory condition on the board?
E.G. no checkmate possible, theoretically unsurpassable score.

And yet another new opinion poll out there about movies.

New Public Opinion Poll (for those who might have put the notification on hide)

2018 World Cup (our picks: Portugal & Spain 42% --- England 27% --- Russia 15% --- Belgium & Netherlands 14%)

Just a question :
Actually, when we create a poll, it's possible to make it with 1 or else several votes.
Why not to give the possibility to the creator to choose the number of votes, example : only 3 votes allowed ? It would be more definite. Of course, we would keep the option with several votes.
What do people think about this ?

TWO new polls are now up for voting - About what host city do you think will be picked for the 2018 & 2022 FIFA World Cup.

I believe they will be announced around Dec 2nd, so I have the polls open until December 1st.

And to have a little more fun, one of them is public - the other Anonymous.

coan.net: ... and for those of you that don't play in site team tournaments, there is an option for you to vote on... which I will predict will be the top voted option. But for the list of games, I will plan to make that the site team tournament that will start on/around Oct 25, 2010.

... don't know what I'll do if there is a tie, so hopefully there will not be one.

Short Poll - Open only 1 week (past poll said people liked short polls)

What Team Tournament would you like setup to start on October 25, 2010?

There are 17 games to choose from - games in the top 50 (of active games going) on the site, which has not had a team tournament start within the last year - and does not have a current team tournament running.

Some interesting notes: [the (###) is the rank of "popular" on active game list]

International Checkers (#47) - Only game on list which has NOT had a site team tournament yet.

Halma 8x8 (#44) - Hasn't had a TT since December 2004

Chinese Chess (#45), PahTum (#29), and Loop Chess (#41) - not since 2005

Massacre Chess (#34) is the most recent in the list, having one start July 2009

Five in Line (#13), Plakoto (#15), and Froglet (#16) are the 3 most "popular" games in the list - with last TT June 09, May 08, and Nov 08 respectively.

For those with polls hidden, there is a new public poll - About what type of pet you have.

http://brainking.com/en/OpinionPoll?poid=739

I tried to pick the 25 top options that could get some votes - I know I left out A LOT of animals - and some animals are more "farm" animals and not "pets", but tried my best to get a good variety to choose from.

Ah thanks, i really should have a quick scan at the previous posts first!

Who can create the polls?

coan.net: lol..does Arkansas count?

I went ahead and put up a quick poll - keep throwing up ideas here - I will use some of them.

The current poll - How many other countries have you been to? (And before someone asks - for those places which may or may not be considered as a country by everyone - simple, if you consider it a different country, count it. If not, don't count it.)

coan.net:  Why not ask.. what people like best about BK?
Games
Graphics
Boards
Fellowships
Family Oriented
Tourneys
Ponds
Able to post photos

Well lets say if I made one for fav game on BK - do you think:

Choose #1 fav game only.

Multiple, and choose top 3 (person can actually pick as many/little as they want, but will ask for top 3)

Public so we can see everyone's answers, or private where you can't see who voted for what
