hmm, i am not very sure that these selections will give clearer results, maybe you're right though...

Dieter, what is your opinion regarding the poll selections/ options i should offer

i really want the polls to be as useful as possible for Doepfer (although, i strongly suggest that Dieter should also follow his own instinct regarding which module should be manufactured and which not).

btw, if more people cared to vote (and not only 50, out of more than 1200 members! ) then the polls would give much clearer results for sure. but...

the actual polls are Not useless, they are MADE rather useless, when only 50 people care to vote. IMHO.

Hello Bakis



> and i have to admit that i am one to blame for some misleading poll results...

I think this tells us, that the questions asked in the polls are not good.



For future polls you should always provide selections like that:



1.) I will buy this module

2.) I think this module is useful, but I won't buy it (at least not now)

3.) I think Doepfer should NOT offer this module

4.) I have no opinion on this module



Selection 1 should result in the minimum sales Dieter will have



Selection 2 will show a general positive direction. Modules with this

voting will assumingly have an allover chance of success, though the

affirmation within the is not that good.



Selection 3 will separate the "no"s caused by individual aversion ("this

module is only useful for techno and I hate techno") from more general

signs of unsuccessfulness.



Selection 4 sounds not very expressive, but this may be the most clear

signal to not produce this module.



We already had some polls with those selections, and they always showed

a much clearer (often less affirmative) picture.
