RE: Pros and cons of two versions of Steem Proposal System
I'm not comfortable delaying the first poll for too long: I'd like to start it within 24 hours from this post (after we've had enough initial discussion to have informed voting).
But there's a good chance I will want to run more stake-weighted polls in the near future, and if your implementation meets my needs, I'd be very happy to use it. On a related note, it might be a good option to have a way for the poller to specify a "discussion period" before allowing votes (similar to the way I'm delaying the polling post until there's been a chance for everyone to express an opinion here and read other people's ideas).
Also, in case it's not clear, I'm looking for a polling system where people can also read opinions about the poll options from people other than the poller.
I see, current version of dPoll missing 2 features we need:
Both are on to do list and will be deployed upcoming weeks.
Are you thinking it counts the rshares of the votes on said comment or the mvests behind the accounts voting with any %? I've thought about this in the past and the second is obviously better due to voting power never really being at or close to 100% for many accounts on the network.
dpoll doesn't work with upvotes. so the owned vests of the account will be the metric.
Interesting: I didn't know that comments also competed on lists like "hot list" on steemit.
