My problem with this is that it doesn't tell us whether the person will/probably will come or not. Would anyone else find it more helpful to say
Definitley come
Probably come
Probably won't come
Definitely won't come
or something along those lines?
But that's not really enough. If someone'd definately come, either way, but would prefer one, that isn't reflected at all.
I suppose Question 3 might be enough to deal with that.

That's what I was thinking.
Okay - keeping in mind that I tend to not be in here unless I'm personally involved (this time, an obvious yes), and don't have a lot of the history.
I don't want to kerfuffle anything here, so let's have a code phrase: if this method is kerfuffle-making, Debet, for heavens sake, say "DEB! BAD! NO!" and let's move on.
Since we only have two cities in the running, shouldn't it be simpler than this? Preferred, second choice, will attend either?
I have this uneasy feeling in the pit of my tum about suggesting that, but it honestly seems simplest, with only two choices on the table.
It totally should, and I'm sorry if I'm coming across as argumentative. I'm just leery of a situation like last year, where I get the feeling a lot of people voted for where they most
wanted
to go, and no so much for where they were most
likely
to go, if you get my meaning. Admittedly, these two cities are much less likely to have that sort of issue.
Yeah, last year was quite a different situation. The one and only vote was between three or four (I'm thinking four) cities. This year should be much simpler.
There were four cities in the final vote, but there was a fair amount of narrowing of cities before that.
The problem, Deb, is that it doesn't take into account people who will attend either, but have a clear preference. I'm trying to come up with a ballot that accounts for both willingness/ability to attend and enthusiasm for the location, which, I think, is similar to what you're saying, Brenda.
We could have voting via short essay.

Oh who the hell am I kidding, that never closes.
I don't think Mr. Poll offers that option.
