Help me test a new feature

Hi all,

As part of the upcoming art contest I’ve been set the challenge of coming up with a way for people to vote that is different from the way we voted before.

Previously we voted in a one vote per person which is great when there is a small number of possible entries but we are looking at this time at a possible 30 yes you read that right 30 entries.

So the idea is that people rank the top 3 entries and the winner is the one with the greatest number of votes, the problem is the current voting software will not allow us to do that so I’ve had to look outside the box and look at alternative software to dot he poll, and the possible solution is limesurvey.

It's giving us the possible solution but I need people to try it out and tell me if it works and what they think.

So if people can take a minute and try out the survey at the link below we can see if this will work or not.

I'll post the results after a week has passed, please do not take the survey seriously, but complete the question, this is to test the software.

Please post your views in this thread.

Thanks in advance

WIn 8.1 with last update of Firefox, it works.

hi all,

firstly thanks to all who has replied to this thread and informed me of issues and problems your help has been invaluable.

the software that I’m using is a free programme called limesurvey you can get it at limesurvey.org I just wanted to throw that in as I’ve used paid survey software in the past and it's been good but not great, this free software beats the others hands down, so if you are running a site and need some survey software then use it you wont regret it.

I've produced a simple chart of the results and it's OK but nothing special. I might do another survey in September to test more features and stuff, we'll see.

Again thanks to all the people who have replied to the survey and here is the results

I like the ambiguity tbh...I can pretend my crap stories got more votes!

But seriously, I think if the colour blocks were bigger it would easy to tell them apart.

it's been about 10 years since i've done charting so i can understand the issues posted, i'm used to office but with libreoffice the difference is huge.

i'll attach the ods file so that if anyone wants to have a play around they can.
