IMDb Polls: IMDb Poll Tracking, Statistics & Leaderboard

@mariojacobs​ 



The old markup link no longer exists. You may remove it from your list.

And thank you, I'm glad you found the site useful. I'm also going to update the markup page soon and add emojis and icons.

@BonaFideBOSS​ I just included a Social Media header too

@ACT_1​ 

Yeah, I still haven't figured out how to do that? Where is the option to add a signature? Could you please show me that? Or are you talking about canned responses?

Go to your profile and click the Edit button. It's there at the bottom of the page.

Great, I just found this feature.👍

Somebody share a screenshot, lol.

Oh, canned responses, yeah I know about those, that's why I asked above if by signature y'all mean canned responses.

But canned responses doesn't let you format text, does it? 🤔

@BonaFideBOSS​ 

I'm afraid not

@dan_dassow​ 

I'm adding new polls every day manually.

Only getting the poll votes is automated, rest is done manually because except the votes nothing requires an update.

@BonaFideBOSS​,

Fortunately, there are only three (3) or four (4) new polls each day, so that takes minimal effort.

I added a link to your IMDb Poll Tracking, Statistics & Leaderboard in the FAQ: Summary Statistics and to FAQ: Key Threads - IMDb Poll FAQs Index.

@dan_dassow​ 

Thanks.

@Breumaster​ 

Votes gained says 71.617, which seems more realistic.

Hi @Breumaster​,

Thanks for reaching out. I'm assuming you're talking about your profile, may I know where are you reading 55,052 votes?

I klicked all to show all 154 polls and down there, under the line at the end there stood 55.052 as a total, which is wrong, because I counted all my votes down a while ago and there were more than 68000.

@Breumaster​ 

... all entries ... now it says 55.324.

@Breumaster​ 

It is showing the correct results to me.

Make sure all filters are set to "All" and the search box is empty.

The totals below the table display the sum of visible polls only.

@BonaFideBOSS​ 

I don't know why it's not showing the correct results to me. May the internet glitch it?

@Breumaster​ 

... still 55.324

Could you please share some screenshots, so I can look into this issue?
(Edit: If you're using Chrome, you can use this extension to take a screenshot of the whole page.)

And may I know what browser are you using? Have you tried in some other browser?

Thanks.

@BonaFideBOSS and @Breumaster,

I show 70,596 for Breumaster as of 24-December-2021:

http://mypollwatch.blogspot.com/2015/03/imdb-polls-votes-by-author.html

The total of 71,617 according to BonaFideBOSS web site as of 17-Jan-2022 is consistent with my information.

@BonaFideBOSS and @Breumaster,

These two browsers work fine for me

@dan_dassow​ 

It looks like it is a matter of browser even though I know nothing at that sort of thing:

Internet Explorer fails to load the data.

Microsoft Edge displays 55 324.

@cinephile​ 

Could you please share a full-page screenshot? [ Ctrl+Shift+S on Edge ]

Thanks.

@BonaFideBOSS 

@cinephile​ 

After pressing Ctrl + Shift + S, you'll get an option on top to screenshot full-page.

Hi @Jessica​,

As per my data, these are the four polls published by you in August 2015.




May I know which are the two polls you believe were published on August 19 2015? Thanks.

Tip: replace "www" with "m" in an IMDb poll URL to view the mobile mode. In this mode, you'll find the correct date the poll was published recorded by IMDb itself.

Example: https://www.imdb.com/poll/UKOk1UM-Juo/ > https://m.imdb.com/poll/UKOk1UM-Juo/

It is possible to mistake a poll was published on a different date than what IMDb says if you're considering a different timezone.

Favorite Foreign Language Films and Favorite Chandler Bing Quote? (Part 1) both went live on Wednesday August 19, I'm sure about that. It's really odd that it says different dates, because they were pushed by one person. :)

@Jessica​ 

I know new polls are published every day and most of the time at 12 AM midnight (EST).

Is it possible one went live before 12 AM and the other after 12 AM?

Because, I just checked Dan's poll data and as per his records, both of them polls went live on August 18.

>Is it possible one went live before 12 AM and the other after 12 AM?

The polls were pushed with only minutes apart. It probably says Aug 18 in Dan's data, because he pushed them and was going after his own timezone. On Wednesday August 19, 2015 both of my polls were there on the poll page, so even though one or both of them were pushed on the 18th, they went live together, for August 19.

But yeah, I agree the timezones can make it confusing. Polls go live at different times of the day depending on where you live.

@BonaFideBOSS, @Jessica, et al,

Currently, I generally keep track of the time a poll goes live to the resolution of a half-hour. I've been using Central time as my basis. I am using the Poll Admin Tool as the basis for when a poll goes live. Occasionally, I do not record the time a poll goes live until a day or two goes by. In those cases, the date may be off by a day or so.

Prior to March 13, 2015, I was not as diligent in keeping track of when a poll went live. The date that I have on record may be off by a day or so.

@Cherganski​ 

Your profile was updated.

@BonaFideBOSS​ Nice one! This is some trully amazing work, you've done

@cinephile​ 

I cannot update the "poll type" information if the poll list is private or deleted. (Cannot always assume the type based on the poll.)

In that situation, which is for the polls that went live before I created my site, I've used @dan_dassow's poll data.

I recommend not deleting or making your lists private once the poll is published.

There are more than 1000 poll-lists that have been deleted or in private, therefore, the data about them on either my site or Dan's could be wrong.

Since you have raised this concern regarding your polls, I'll examine each of your polls and correct the data manually. [OR] If you could make your lists public, I can update your polls in a few minutes which would be much faster and accurate.

Let me know if you're willing to make your poll-lists public so I can give you a list of your private poll-lists. I hope you haven't deleted any of them.

Thank you.

@BonaFideBOSS​ 

 If you could make your lists public, I can update your polls in a few minutes which would be much faster and accurate,

I only deleted 8 lists over the years. Since then, to keep data for my "poll archive" I have recreated them.

A lot of my lists are private though (358), that is not my fault, a couple months ago, all my lists disappeared. Employees have restored them, but I haven't the force/time to edit all of them manually and set them "public" I might try during the weekend, but it will be a very long process.

@cinephile and @BonaFideBOSS ,

I exported the data for thenolanfan

https://imdbpolls.almir.info/user#ur91650024

I added the column labeled "Correct Type" as column H. I saved the file on my Google Drive as:

IMDb Polls by thenolanfan.xlsx

With the link:

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1ZDtRvVeATHnMyeBoFquza4YOuUxum_fk/edit?usp=sharing&ouid=117299697074751581561&rtpof=true&sd=true

@cinephile, you should be able to edit the list. If not, please request access to the list.

Once you have access to the list, please enter the correct type when there is an error in the column "Correct Type".

Once you are satisfied you made all of the corrections, please post in this thread that you have done so. I will update my data as soon as practical.

= = =

When IMDb mistakenly made @cinephile's lists private, I was behind in recording data for polls. I had to guess for some polls as a result.

@cinephile​ 

These are your poll lists that are deleted or in private.

Edit: No longer available.

@cinephile​ 

Your profile was updated. Let me know if you find any more issues with your poll data.

Thank you for reporting and congratulations on 200 polls!

@cinephile​,

Thank you pointing out the poll type errors. I'm happy to see that you were able to access the spreadsheet I posted on Google Docs; and that @BonaFideBOSS​ was able to update his database. I will update my data as soon as practical.

@cinephile​, @BonaFideBOSS​, et al,

I've updated my data to make the corrections that @cinephile​ provided. Since, @BonaFideBOSS​' application works so well, I will only post updates to my data when necessary.

Hello,

I don't have any more updates since a long time ago now, is it normal or just me ? How can this problem be solved ?

@BenWakizashi​,

https://imdbpolls.almir.info/

BoneFideBOSS has not updated his data since:

Data as of Thursday, February 17, 2022 - 07:39 EST (9 days ago)

When he updates his data, his data for you will likewise be updated.

As of 26-February-2022 6:20 PM GMT:

• There are currently, 11,232 polls that have gone live.
• This is your data. I also keep track of polls and downloaded your data manually.

@BenWakizashi​ 

Your profile was updated.

I was busy last week and was planning to update it at the end of this month.

Please note that I only do a complete update by the end of every month or the start of every month or if there's a special occasion. However, I welcome individual requests anytime and will try my best to fulfil them within 24 hours.

Thanks a lot @dan_dassow and @BonaFideBOSS for the update!

Ok understood, I was just wondering, I'm new here so there are a lot of things to learn.

Have a nice day guys.

I think bonafide is doing it monthly. Maybe at the start of the month. 

@Brijesh​ and @Breumaster ,

BonaFide initially updated his statistics every 2 or 3 days, then transitioned to every week. He also only did a full update to the polls every month. Speaking from personal experience, updating the number of votes for all active polls is a significant undertaking.

I believe that he mentioned that he would be on travel for a few days and did not have a the resources during travel. Obviously, BonaFide can correct any of my misstatements.

I've recorded some data from BonaFide's statistics since 20-January-2022. This a sample:

I just wonder there isn't an algorythm which does that automatically.

@Breumaster​ ,

I just wonder there isn't an algorythm which does that automatically.

Sadly, there is no algorithm which does this automatically. Much of this is done manually.

@Breumaster​ 

The poll data has been updated — 100%.

And as Dan said, I've to upload the data manually to the server. Automatic costs money which I currently don't have. But uploading is the easy part, it only takes about a minute. Retrieving the data from IMDb takes 9 hours for 10,642 polls (current no. of live polls). That's why I decided to do a 100% update only at the end of the month. But I'll honor personal requests anytime because it is easy to update one poll author. :)

@Pencho15​ 

The data is displayed based on your browser's locale.

So if you have it set to Spanish, it will display numbers in Spanish format (1.234, 5). Changing the language to English will show the numbers in US format (1,234.5).

I'll force it to display the numbers in US format regardless of your browser's language in the next update (end of this month).

Edit: You can visit the link below to test if it works.

https://imdbpolls.almir.info/numberFormat

@BonaFideBOSS​ Got it, the English format works better for me since its the one we use in Mexico, rather than the one they use in Spain.

@dan_dassow​ 

Sure. I'll update my site between August 30 and September 1.

@dan_dassow​ 

I updated my data 100% today morning.

@BonaFideBOSS​ ,

Thanks.

I'm in the process of updating my version of the poll statistics.

@BonaFideBOSS​ ,

I've updated my signature block to reflect the change.
