Re: The Awesome and Cool Poll Thread
Eh, I find serifs make small text harder to read because it looks more cluttered. Though aesthetically, especially with large text, I quite like serifs. In fact whenever I'm bored and doodling, I usually find myself drawing big letters with serifs.
Anyway, I went sans-serif for the readability.
As for a poll suggestion, how about something like "If all books (non-academic), movies, videogames or songs had to be lost forever, which of these mediums would you rather we loose?"

Re: The Awesome and Cool Poll Thread
I think that poll would fare better without books, it's probably the only "millennials are killing..." that's actually true.
Poll: I'm fine either way, but bad handwriting is usually much easier to read if it's simple and not overly scribbly.

Re: The Awesome and Cool Poll Thread
70s texts are the best anyway.
La quenelle se décline en plusieurs tailles, à jauger en fonction du succès de l’action : petite quenelle, quenelle de 12, quenelle de 40, de 175, quenelle épaulée, etc. Plus la quenelle est longue, plus, bien entendu, le bras d’honneur est profond et procure satisfaction à son auteur.

Re: The Awesome and Cool Poll Thread
Hmmmm, I've never really given it much thought over what kind of text is easier to see. I have to ask this though: does anyone use a font size below 10? I'm sure someone has seen a paper with a size 6 font, but I can't really think of a viable way aside from messing around with text to use text with a font size of 6 or 8. But that's just me. Readability wise, I don't think the type of text makes any difference to me anyway, it depends on the situation, I guess. Though I think the serif is nicer looking.

Re: The Awesome and Cool Poll Thread
I used to use small font sizes in tedious second-year lab reports, in which we had to report all our results and that was the only way to make the tables fit on one page!

Re: The Awesome and Cool Poll Thread
No preference. I've honestly never thought about it before, and thinking about it now, I couldn't tell you.

Re: The Awesome and Cool Poll Thread
No preference, and I don't have anything else to add that wasn't said already.

Re: The Awesome and Cool Poll Thread
Hmm.. I'd say favourite console but there's far too many. Maybe either one between PS2, Gamecube and Xbox or else maybe do you prefer 80's 90's 00's or current gen consoles / games as your favourite ones?

Per Keane's suggestion, "If all movies, videogames or songs had to be lost forever, which of these mediums would you rather we loose?"

I don't like auto correct though

Re: The Awesome and Cool Poll Thread
Hold on… Perhaps we could keep books but allow two selections? It's been ages since I've done a poll allowing more than one selection…
Also either way I will obviously correct "loose" to "lose".

Re: The Awesome and Cool Poll Thread
I suppose so, though I’d be interested to see what people would choose out of the prior selection if it really came down to it. It’s not as hard if you can choose two

Re: The Awesome and Cool Poll Thread
Tbh I'm nearly tempted to just do the normal one-option one with books included, to see if it'll really be as close-to-unanimous as one might think. But I'll wait to hear a few more opinions. Pre-poll poll? Ah shut up…

Re: The Awesome and Cool Poll Thread
Well I wouldn’t mind doing the poll with the books, just to see what everyone thinks anyway, but in the end it’s all up to you Plum to decide on the poll. (Pre-poll poll btw???
)

Re: The Awesome and Cool Poll Thread
Well, asking for so many opinions on what version of the poll to run is kinda like a pre-poll poll.

Re: The Awesome and Cool Poll Thread
I would personally pick books without much thought simply based on the fact that I haven't read nearly as many books as I have watched films/played games/listened to music, picking from the other three would be a trickier decision.
Come to think of it your original suggestion of having two options wasn't a bad idea, that way if books do win we can at least see what would have been the popular choice of the other three. I wouldn't mind doing it that way.

Re: The Awesome and Cool Poll Thread
Okay, I'll do that, even if it's a bit awkward and contrived…
EDIT: Wow, I had to completely reword that to get it into the 100-character limit! The irony…

Re: The Awesome and Cool Poll Thread
I went Books and Films. Though I really like a lot of Films and there are some interesting reads out there, I'm not going without my games or music
