Please only post if you have been left out and don;'t have a place to vote.  This list should be a bit better

What do you mean by "If you were left out"?  I just thought we were starting over.  I voted in the first poll, should I remove my vote?

Doug, you can edit your original poll, or, if you can't, the mods can do it for you. No reason to start a new one and lose the data from the first one.

I'll be glad to edit it for you if you wish, or DML, Nick, Jack or Phil will do it.

hI dALLAS, I looked for a bit to modify the poll.  Didn;t seem to find it.

if anyone wants to take up the project, feel free.

I just thought it would be interesting to see the demographic

I agree to start over.....this way it will be a straight votes.

I might add...if you add a write in the unlisted bus & model for the "Other" button. That way everyone will be in this voting and may learn more unknown bus or whatever.

FWIW

Doug,

Just to the right of the submit button is a couple of links, one says "See Results" the other says, "Edit" hopefully, if you can see those, you'll be in hog heaven!

Jack,

If the poll is started over, the previous results are lost and some of the ones who made them will not post again. Ya, I know it's a big bummer, but hey, on this board, you get whatcha pay for!

Now I just learn the old one is still posting and this I believe is a start over.

The subject is very same as old one....it should be removed old one and change this subject to "This is a new version...What type of bus do you have"

FWIW

Cliff, I do beleive you are right!  It's getting interesting!

Saw an editorial cartoon in USA Today, someone said, " I like Obama, but he's got so little experience."  The next person says, "Well he doesn't have much experience at running for President and that's going pretty well!"

Would be interesting to know how many have multiple of the same model. & if they are roadable  ;)

I have friends with multiple buses, some run, others, not so much. So, I ain't the only one  :o

This is a fine example of "Never Give a BusNut too many buttons to push!"

So I was on the first poll but not the second. I see that as an improvement.

Is there a reason I don't see any buses tagged yet on this post?

Votes have to be cast over on this thread.  (afaik, there isn't a way anyone can transfer the votes over from the other)  Some haven't done that yet.  So right now, their chads are left hanging in the other thread  ;D .

Now I'm really confused, first I am told not to vote again, then I am told to vote again.  Which is it?

If your page do not show "buttons" to click on then you already voted in.

Never mind the old one. It should have been removed from this board to prevent confusion.

I know it gets confusing. Here's a couple of virtual Aspirins to relieve any discomfort.   :) :)

When Tekebird posted that, I think he was asking people to only make a post to the thread if their bus type wasn't listed in the poll.

Quote from: Dallas on February 14, 2008, 04:54:38 PM

Jack,

If the poll is started over, the previous results are lost and some of the ones who made them will not post again. Ya, I know it's a big bummer, but hey, on this board, you get whatcha pay for!

At the time that Dallas posted that, the other thread was still alive and he was making the point that if it "started over" (in other words, this newer poll replaced it) that the previous results would be lost and some people might not come to the new poll to vote.  Since his post, the other thread has been locked and this is the "official" poll.  As Dallas had observed, the votes were not transferable.

I know it is confusing.  But the first poll was missing too many models to be useful and Tekebird was having some technical difficulties with adding more options.  And I'm not sure the forum software would have allowed him to change the type of poll to allow people to select more than one if they owned more than one type.  So, in my opinion, this was the best solution and hopefully everyone that voted before will return and vote again.  As of right now, 92 people have voted, so I think voter turnout has gone well.

    What type of bus do I have?   It's an inter-city. That's a road coach. Actually I don't have a bus, it's a coach. Busses have seats.

For a better count try the pictures section, count them yourself.
I tried but my feet got cold so I put my shoes back on (I got to 20) and quit.

Who's going to pay for this do-over?  Would the Eagle owners agree to a caucus?  Could we just take half of the first poll and add them to this one?
