Awesome, we now have bigger polls. Which is nice. 🙂

It doesn’t seem to be working. It’s not registering my vote for #42.

I independently tried to pick 42 (we sure have nerds on this board) but the “Vote now” button is greyed-out.

I figured it out. That text is shown in smaller print off to the side, you have to scroll to near the middle of that long list of poll options to see it. The first time I paged past it, all I noticed was the giant results, not the smaller print.

Yeah, it’s not set for "up to three ", it’s set for “exactly three”. That’s something the poll author can pick, though.

Yep, that was deliberate because that’s how it’ll be in the real poll that I was practicing for.

I’ll make sure it’s clear that it’s “pick exactly three” in the supporting text.
