| Dec 12, 2017 at 12:41 | comment | added | doed | this question or even the idea is just an example of the computer bug that comes after prolongued periods of computer usage with nothing better to do. Gosh, I sound grumpy ;) | |

| Dec 9, 2017 at 22:42 | comment | added | user31729 | @cfr: I meant only one answer concerning the 'poll' count. Of course others may add answers as well. | |

| Dec 8, 2017 at 17:14 | comment | added | Werner Mod | I think this question is valid as it pertains to the (main) site. However, design considerations like this will definitely be low on the priority list for the developers as they have bigger ducks to fry. Regardless, for any change of meaningful discussion (and support or not), the dual answers should be merged into one. Preferably, they should be deleted and a new one should be made. | |

At this point, I have no idea of what to do with this question! :)

| Dec 7, 2017 at 10:10 | comment | added | user31729 | I also think the two possible answers are totally misleading. There should be only one possible answer. Upvote it if you like the proposition, downvote if you don't agree. | |

| Dec 1, 2017 at 2:45 | comment | added | cfr | I agree with @AlanMunn. I don't think the votes will tell you anything much. Especially if you take account of the fact that there are probably a high number of passers-by who will upvote any post with a fun image, regardless of content. Either both answers should have a fun image or neither. And either they should both be reason specific or they should neither be. Anyway, why not witches, donkeys or cats? | |

| Nov 30, 2017 at 0:31 | comment | added | Alan Munn | The No question is really a biased question, since it requires you to vote no on the basis of silliness. But there are certainly other reasons why one might vote no, and so this might discourage no voters. | |
| Nov 29, 2017 at 21:48 | comment | added | samcarter_is_at_topanswers.xyz | @Werner Thanks for this information! Back to the topic: I believe comparing the upvotes of both answers should in first order approximation be the same as comparing up/down of a single answer. | |
| Nov 29, 2017 at 21:44 | comment | added | Werner Mod | @samcarter: I didn't pose the question, but last year's feedback seemed positive. Based on a discussion on The Tavern on Meta it is currently set as an "opt out" option. That is, it is assumed the site is in unless the mods mention otherwise. | |
| Nov 29, 2017 at 21:39 | comment | added | samcarter_is_at_topanswers.xyz | @Werner Offtopic: do you know if tex.stackexchange will participate in this years bash? | |
| Nov 29, 2017 at 21:30 | comment | added | Werner Mod | @samcarter: Here is a related poll done for Winterbash 2016. | |
| Nov 29, 2017 at 21:26 | comment | added | samcarter_is_at_topanswers.xyz | @PauloCereda What is your opinion to @ Werners comment? | |
| Nov 29, 2017 at 21:24 | comment | added | samcarter_is_at_topanswers.xyz | @Werner Well, at the current vote count, do the downvotes really matter? I guess two scenarios are possible a) a user upvotes one of the answers and nothing else b) a user upvotes one of the answers and downvotes the other (I think downvoting without upvoting is not very likely). So probably comparing the upvotes of both answers would be the fairest.... | |
| Nov 29, 2017 at 19:46 | comment | added | Werner Mod | @samcarter: How does one interpret the two answers? For example, what does an upvote on the "No" answer imply compared to a downvote on the same answer. Similarly for the "Yes" answer. It seems possible to consolidate them into one: Upvote = support; downvote = not. | |
| Nov 29, 2017 at 19:30 | comment | added | Bruno Le Floch | The placement seems like it would get hidden behind the top bar. | |
| Nov 28, 2017 at 14:52 | comment | added | samcarter_is_at_topanswers.xyz | This is a great way to demonstrate the versatilely of tex! | |
