Today, we close the 300th poll on this blog. I just want to take a moment to thank everyone that's participated in this blog. I genuinely didn't know if I could sustain this when it started.
Soon we'll be coming up on the 1 or anniversary here and the 2yr anniversary for @bts-polls. I've absolutely made some mistakes with these but I'm beyond thrilled to know that I've never missed a day!
Here's some tidbits for anyone wondering:
Every trivia question has had 7 response options. I purposefully decided to do this because I KNEW there would be polls with each of the members as an option. And I wanted to eliminate as much of the question-method-implication as possible (there's a term for this but I'm blanking right now)
I believe there's only one poll (so far) that ended up having 2 correct answers.
That's a total of 2,100 responses options (just of closed polls today)
Often, the hardest part of crafting a poll is determining possible fake answers. Professionally, I've been creating training materials and exams for over 15 yrs so I knew this was something I could do, but 6 incorrect answers on some polls is a stretch. (That's why sometimes you'll see some options like 'none of the above'. Usually, that means I was struggling for possible answers. I dont promise to never have that be the correct answer, but it's not what I gravitate toward. There's your hint moving forward for any that took the time to read this!)
Once again, thank you to everyone that's voted, liked, and/or reblogged. Y'all have been amazing supporters of these silly little blogs!
