I saw something rather cool at another forum (don't think I can post its name... tip: NES game, uses the gun, replace first word with 'ISO'). At the side of the page, among other things, is a poll. It randomly chooses from polls that have been posted anywhere on the board and displays the options there and lets you vote on them. It's kinda neat.

We don't already have enough poll threads?

No, this doesn't create polls. It randomly chooses from a thread that has a poll in it.

Not a bad idea: Except that we'd have to engineer it so that it brought up open, relevant, current, and NON-nonsensical polls, the opposite of which we seem to have an excessive amount of.

EDIT: I'm not making fun of you on this. I think it's a good idea, but it'd be a monster to execute.

Sounds like a good idea.

If you're worried about only having sensible polls, there could be some kind of list from which the thing chooses from at random, kind of like the Item menu is Super Smash Bros. Is that even possible? I'm not good at programming and stuff.

You could add a field to the poll table defining whether to list them or not, but that'd mean adding a DB field (which already kills the idea) and adding a checkbox for staff to select whether it gets listed.
