THIS IS A TEST!

This is a test of the polling system. Please vote, especially if you are outside of beige.party. I'm trying to prove a theory that since v4.3.4 polls with more than 4 options only record votes from the local instance. This poll is the control.

What's your favorite temper?

Edit: Adding this here for visibility. This was not a bug in the Mastodon code, but rather the result of me increasing the max poll options on the web server but not on the server running the sidekiq processes.

@theropologist

I cannot vote in the poll with more than four options because it requires that I log in with beige.party credentials or create a beige.party account.

@theropologist Not on beige.party; saw the poll; voted malice. As of this post was the only participant so this may be a valuable data point for you.

@theropologist I was going to vote dread until I noticed you asked for favorite, not most common

@theropologist something seems wrong for me. I tried to vote frolic and it wouldn’t go through. Must have accidentally touched malice because it was checked when I tried to vote again. Then got a message saying I had already voted the total votes didn’t go up.

@theropologist I only see four options. Are there supposed to be more?

@theropologist Should this one only have 4 responses? (I see 4: woe, frolic, dread and malice)

@lordmortis @theropologist ah I was also confused until I looked at his profile - this is the control with 4 options, the test option is this toot: https://beige.party/@theropologist/114491751797540008

Frolic, really, but for the sake of creating valid statistics from my existence outside Beige.party, I'll help boost malice, the ickiest one.

@theropologist Is there anything we can do from the viewer end for feedback, or can you get all the data you need by looking at results on your end?
