Do the polls work?
« on: April 20, 2006, 07:33:57 am »
As in, periodically changing?



BTW, I didn't make today's poll.  I think Final Fantasy VII is overrated, though I probably would put it on the poll, but I'd definitely use "VII" and not "7".  Also, I'd put the period in "Bros." and fully write out "The Legend Of Zelda".  And it's "Chrono", not "Crono".

I ran the poll crontab manually to test it. That was just a quick poll, first thing that came to my head.  When you test things you don't generally look for errors ._.

Well, they found you.  One per line.  Tsk tsk tsk.



Now you're going to tell me that you probably spell "Game Boy" as one word, do you?  I really hate that.

Heh, I was just about to make a post saying the following:

"I take it Inty made the poll, not Jon. It would be a rare sight indeed to see Jon make such a major typo in such a well known character's name."

Actually it IS Crono, but the game is Chrono Trigger.



I've always wondered if people are blind when they do things like misspell things or confuse Roman numerals and numbers.  But then again I'm probably a visual person and they are textual and remember what they read, not what they see.

I could also tell you guys about my wireless keyboard running out of battery, so some keys are not recognised. Either the `h` in Chrono didn't register, or i rushed it too much <_<
