December Phoro Contest - preliminary polls

The 3 preliminary polls are up in General Discussion. That's right, I said 3! we ended up with 21 entries, because I forgot to lock the thread once there were 20, so I made 3 polls with 7 entriies each.

I apologize for the delay. i expected to have them up earlier today, but was thwarted by computer problems. I ended up having to make the polls on my husband's desktop computer, which I'm not used to, so it took a lot longer than it should have.

If you notice any errors, please post a comment in here and I'll fix them.

Here are the links:

Thanks for all the great entries! Please keep these kicked!

I am really proud of you. The first time is always the hardest and you came through with flying colors!

I spotted one tiny error: In the third poll, the time left states "unlimited." It's a minor error and many of us have made that one. No worries, but it should be changed.

If that's the only real error I made, I'm thrilled to hear it! I do want to fix it, only I can't figure out how.

Evidently the clock starts running when the post goes up, based on what you select when making the poll. I can't see any way to change it after the fact.

Be that as it may, I feel pretty good about how things turned out overall, and I couldn't have done it without your help!

As for the edit, I would tap the edit button on that third poll and see if doing that allows you to reset the time remaining.
