Second poll is now up; this one will be regarding a time for a forum wide competition as the previous results of the first poll were 73 votes for YES and 10 votes for NO. Per usual, any questions or concerns can be asked on this threads or directed to my PMs. This poll will end on Aug 17, 2019 @ 12am edt. Original Post on Aug. 7, 2019 @ 7:11pmI promised to do this poll a month ago and it didn't happen. sorry for the huge delay.So, in the past ~2 months, there was a thread circulating about ways to save the "dying site" we have here. Basically, the main idea that was proposed was that we do a forum wide competition with teams, games, and the works. Of course this would include trying to figure out how this would work on PB if any of the coding ideas can be implemented and whatnot, but before diving too deep in; I felt it would be best to ask in a poll for opinions.
Also, since I can't ask multiple questions in a poll, I might include a list here in case any are brought up. Please keep an eye on this post if it is edited. I highly recommend that you read the thread in question before voting.

To me, winter break is the last two weeks of December & the first week of January. I can always look back at old analytics to see when the most amount of posts were made and that’ll determine a time frame as well.
I’m thinking winter break could be a trial run for this forum wide competition seeing as summer break is like a year away. Thoughts?

Gotcha. Because mine starts second week of December, so I wasn't completely sure.

Whoops. XD Ninja edit there Sand.
I think it would make a good trial run! There would be an opportunity to see how it goes, work out the kinks and bugs before Summer, and also support some hype between the end of Winter Break and the start of Summer, so people can look forward to and plan. But mostly, I think it would be good to have a trail run then so we can learn what does and does not work, take suggestions, and so forth for the real thing.

Same for mine.
Sorry about that lol. Exactly, I think it’d be a good test. We’ll see what issues we’ll come across and we can fix them as we go. Considering the polls had 65 & 83 voters it may determine how big teams will be. Hopefully we can get an average number soon.

Hopefully so. It seems to be a large enough number to have some support behind it as well as a possibility of further participation. There's also some time to plan out the finer details for mechanics between now and Winter break.
