SHV, Your Intentions 2 Weeks Before Release

lock the 3 week poll, here comes the 2 week poll.

it goes for 7 days.

then we do the last week poll.

on day of release, we compare the evolution.

on an nice excel sheet.

so you propose someone elses thread be closed so yours can take its place?

i can follow the reasoning but you are awful presumptuos to take it upon yourself to decide someone elses thread is no longer relevent.

by the same reasoning i should close this thread for being redundent and pointless.

so whats next, is someone going to do a daily poll and tell me i can close this one then someone else can do an hourly poll until the release.

This Poll makes the mistake of giving us TWO question types to which we can only answer one.

It doesn`t make sense.

Oh wait- I just noticed I can make more than one answer- ok then!

I voted "Same", which was "No Sale!" It's not as though I'm a Pavlov-trained consumer, I have other things I can do with my time.

I will enjoy SH3 GWX, wish the devs all the best. maybe I buy yet another copy of SH3 and give it to yet another friend as a present to hook yet another person up to sh3, hehehe. I will not support such DRM as in SHV...

cheers

Yikes, not looking good...
And you guys are right, they have changed DRM/OSP to Uplay

[HundertzehnGustav]

Webster...

i have nothing against Brags other, first, poll. i dont care should it be open or closed.

But he started to gather info, 3 weeks before.
To check the evolution of the Opinions, people should be able to post their opinion once a week, every week in a different one.

In the politics area we see the same!

3 weeks before the elections people are asked for their opinion.
-you want bush or you want obama?

2 weeks before the elections:
-you want bush or you want obama?

1 week before the elections, again the same question:
-bush or obama?

But in order to get the data and the results right, the stacks of forms have to be on their respective piles: 3,2,1, weeks before the elections.

The best and most effective way to prevent multiple voting in the polls, is to lock the old Thread, and only keep the newest one active.

OR - if you find a way to lock the old POLL, but keep the THREAD open for discussion, that would be perfect. But i doubt the Boards tools allow that to be done.

- maybe there is a misunderstanding at this exact level? me requesting his Thread shut? Not really - i would like the Poll to be shut, but i said THREAD, because i doubt you have a way to close only the Poll.
I lack knowledge of Admin tools.

His old poll is relevant, to show the opinions 3 weeks before Day X.
This poll reunites the Opinions 2 weeks before day X.
A third poll will reunite Opinions 1 week before day X.

Proper results demand that only the current poll be open for Voting.

----------------------------------------------------------------

Its not about MY thread vs Brags Thread. Me being more important than him. The egotrip thing. Not at all!

Its about closing one poll (to prevent continued votes) and uniting the current opinions in a current poll.

This Thread, as you have seen, is the continuation of Brags poll, wich i find fantastic, and would like to keep his project going.

It does not matter wether Brag does it or I do it. (maybe i started this poll only minutes before he would have started it? Maybe he is offline today and CAN not start this poll? who knows?)

You might put his name right behind the title, or edit the first post, i wouldnt mind. As a matter of Fact, all i did was copypaste his own words; *I* didnt do any thinking at all.
Its HIS Project if you ask me.
I just take care of it because i am interested in the results.

-----------------------------------------------------------

And no - "3 weeks before", "2 weeks before", "1 week before" is all i can think of that would get any useful votes at all and allow drawing any conclusions.




Edit:
A gentleman just pointed out a Mistake of mine...

McCain or Obama, not Bush. But that's an easy mistake to make

Thank you... *hands IanC a Beer*

Wow, 43% less inclined to buy (presumably since last week).

What new stuff did we find out in the last week to reflect this rating drop?

Thought bubbles.

My intentions two weeks from now are the same as they were three weeks from now...as they will be one hour before the game is released.

Nothing has changed.

Well, no point in me doing a copy/paste, then.

I'll continue with SHIII GWX 3.0 and wait until the storm of discontent blows over.

With all the bad things said about SHV, DRM, online only. I fear that this could be the beginning Of the end, will Ubisoft make a Subsim again? I cannot see how sales world wide Will be that good. And all the polls on subsim does not look that good for the out come of the game.
