It's like choosing between apples and oranges. They are both fruit and share a lot of the same DNA, but their features, their traits, are so wildly different.
Hi, Jennifer Blackburn. Do you seek to suggest the creation of face-off poll? There are certain procedures expected of you, if you do. You'll have to create a title-type IMDb list entry, include a hyperlink to this GS topic in its description, and also indicate on this topic the URL of the particular list that you've authored. Otherwise, you should clarify that this GS topic is "JFF" (just for fun) or a brainstorm for a formal poll suggestion. Thank you.
I am assuming that you are trying to make a poll suggestion. If that is correct, thank you for your poll suggestion.
How to suggest an IMDb Poll
IMDb Polls are built on IMDb Lists. Poll administrators can create polls from these lists.
You will need an IMDb account
to create a list. You can also use Facebook, Google or Amazon to sign
in, but it's probably best to stick with one so you don't accidentally
end up with multiple accounts.
You will also need a Get Satisfaction account to post your poll suggestion here. You can also use Facebook or Google to sign in.
2.
You can choose from titles, people or images, depending on your
subject. Each type of list works in slightly different ways, but any of
them can become a poll.
3. Name your list. Keep your poll title
short and punchy. Future proof your poll by using a title that works
days, months, years ahead. Don't include the words "Poll Suggestion"
here.
4. In the description field, include a clear poll question.
You can also include an introduction. Check your spelling, grammar etc.
5.
Add a link from the list description to your suggestion post so voters
can discuss the poll. You'll have to post your suggestion (see below),
then get the permalink to the thread and re-edit the
description. Example:
[link=https://getsatisfaction.com/imdb/topics/poll-suggestion...]Discuss this poll here[/link]
6.
Add poll options as entries in the list. There can be any number of
options from 2 to 35. You can include descriptive text for each option.
7.
Make sure your list is public so other people may review it. If it is
not public, the link to your list will produce a 404 (page not found)
error for everyone but the author. Post your suggestion
2.
When you enter the subject of your poll, the site will search for
previous posts with the same keywords. Check to see if your poll has
already been suggested by someone else. Click "Post with this title" to
continue.
3. Under Title, use "Poll Suggestion:" followed by the name of your list.
4. Under "Conversation Type", choose "Idea".
5. Under "Description", include the question and description from your list and insert the URL of your list.
6. Under "Related Categories", make sure IMDb Poll is selected under Services.
7. Post your suggestion.
8.
Now wait and see if your poll is selected as a new IMDb Poll. Even if
your poll is not selected, your post will remain on the board and other
users may vote on it with their comments.
A question to original thread author, Jennifer. Are you still interested in pursuing this Face-Off poll? This poll would do well, given the popularity and cult status of the two vampire driven films.
Just follow the straightforward and simple directions provided by Dan above. First one has to make a simple title list.
