I suggest a bifurcated poll, since we have so many nominees. The first poll would allow multiple choices, and the low vote-getters would be eliminated. Second poll, single choice for the title.

That has worked well on some topics I have polled.

However, **Justin\_Bailey** , if you’re trying to forestall the “Oh, you missed \_\_\_\_\_” and variations on the theme, you may as well go ahead now. It would be a distinct oddity if somewhere in the first ten posts you don’t get one.

And by all means, eschew the Other option!

Fuck the “Other” option! If it wasn’t nominated, it’s obviously not the greatest.

But yeah, a two-tiered poll sounds good. I’ll get on that after lunch.
