Suggested rules for Camaro poll

I suggest using this method.

The final list has a limit of 10 cars. The number of slots for each car color should be directly proportional to the number of entries in that color group relative to the total number of cars in the competition. (example: There are 30 cars in the competition. Blue has 10 cars so it gets 30/10 or 3 slots in the final poll.)

However, if it is found that a small color group has an unusually high number of excellent choices, then a substitute may be made by removing the least popular car from the largest color group and giving that slot to the appropriate car from the small color group.

Winner will be chosen from the final top 10 derived from above.

I think that's about it.

I'm having problems with my database and adding the correct tables for the poll. Probably should ask Drew or Dirk to increase the number of tables in use for their polls so we can have more than 10 options. I've gone over my code again and again and for so damn reason i can get to 12 and it starts spitting out errors. Damn PHP

Do you have access to a CGI-Bin?

If so, just do it out of that... can have it done in less than 30min. Tons of poll scripts

If anyone has a CGI-Bin I can access... Virtualave used to do it, but their site won't let me in or let me join anymore. Free or not, I could probably get a poll up in running in no time. Or we could always do the above... Doesn't matter to me.
