Live Poll: How Many Options in a Poll Are Perfect?

Intro: A time ago we asked about what makes you avoid voting in a poll. There is a significant point which seems interesting. So we picked it up and now ask ... How many options are perfect for you to vote in a poll? Please tell us here. You can also vote here for the subject Why Would You Avoid Voting in a Poll? (linked) Suggestions: I weigh the usability on if the option would make sense, so please before suggesting make yourself clear what you want to know from the people in that consense. At all I think it's difficult to find another option that would fit the subject wisely. Thank you. :D List: https://www.imdb.com/list/ls4101007307/ Poll: https://www.imdb.com/poll/bNbkcd21LkcQnA-vRPtjdA/

Please edit: #6: Up to 25 options is a good amount. But it could get a little exhausting to compare with the other options. So that would be the highest amount of options a poll should have. #8: It's ok for me and I wouldn't change it at all. #10: If there is less text or no text at all, I got no problem with the amount of options. Perhaps the third option (a dozen) can be excluded, so it's more consistent with 5, 10, 15, 20 etc.

Thanks. I would also suggest putting these sentences on the same line: A time ago we asked about what makes you avoid voting in a poll. There is a significant point which seems interesting. So we picked it up and now ask ... This will make the whole intro visible in the poll without having to click "Read More".

I thought it would look better. Ok, I've put it all in the same line. :)

Thank you for pointing out, Mario. I didn't see that. It is of 2014/05/26. That's 11 years. Over a decade many things can change, also the attention span of people, considering a new generation. I think it would be interesting to get a new evaluation after that long time. That's why I also took the option with "Too much text" in. It was for some time the second point after the two main points and the point of "Too much options". Wouldn't it be interesting to compare the results of then and now?

This phrase is awkward, I'm not really sure what you mean: There is the fortune of having up to 35 options in a poll by now.

Awkward options are a no go, sure. So I changed it to: "There is a maximum of 35 options in a poll by now. I would even like to have more than that. It would be a good time killer for boring times. So 35+" What do you think? Is it better now? Thank you for pointing out.

I made it a little shorter: "I would even take more than 35 options."
