How did the mod polls work?

Did the person you voted for first get 8 'points', and the 2nd person you voted for got 7 'points', and so on, or does it just give your first-voted-person one vote?

I know, run-on sentence!

Re: How did the mod polls work?

I think it's a normal survey - the first, second, third, fourth, fifth, etc. are just like "Yes" "No" "Sort of" when answering a survey. I think the Scratch team will take the results of the survey, and see who got 1st, who got 2nd, who got 3rd, etc. and award them on a point system like you mentioned.

My guess is that it will be like golf, least amount of points wins. They will just add up all of the points, (1st=1, 2nd=2,3rd=3...) and then put the canidates in order based on that. It seems to be the simplist way atleast.

I think this is correct as well. It would make the most sense, I hope it works this way  smile
