Numerous post-ers have mentioned having a FanLax Forum Poll and many have expressed an interest in being involved. The broad brushstrokes involve submitting a weekly poll (with rationale) which will be amalgamated to create a FanLax Forum Poll. All other details (e.g. How many teams, etc.) are To Be Determined. Who wants in? Post below or message me.

Current thinking:

#1 - The POST-ER POLLS be Top Tens. There will also be a "FORUM POLL" which will be an amalgamate of all the POST-ER POLLS. So each of the POST-ER POLLS will be Top Tens but the FORUM POLL (unless every Post-er Poll has the same 10 teams) will be more.
#2 - The polls will be due on Monday night and will be posted on Tuesday by noon.
#3 - We'll be posting the FORUM and POST-ER POLLS within the website with a link to a thread within the relevant Forum. (e.g. D1 Men Forum, D1 Women Forum, D3 Men Forum, etc.) Within the relevant Forum, the Post-ers who submitted Polls will have an opportunity to explain their Poll as well as to add more teams if they felt limited by the Top Ten. And, of course, all post-ers will have an opportunity to offer support, ask questions, deride and ridicule the Poll Post-ers for their weak choices, etc.

That's the thinking for now.

I created the Forum Poll Page (for the D1 Men) to collect the Polls from the individual Forum Poll Post-ers.
Take a look. I'm going to do the same for you all but wanted to pause before doing this to get feedback on this first iteration.

As shown on the page, minimum of Top 10, maximum of Top 25. All picks will contribute to the cumulative FORUM POLL with #1 picks getting the most weight, the #25 pick getting the least. Let me know if you have any thoughts, questions, etc. Otherwise, enjoy making your picks. And, of course, let me know if you want to join the fun.

This is where the D3 Men Forum Poll Poll-ers will make their picks. Poll-ers should submit a minimum of Top 10 teams and a maximum of Top 25. The first (Preseason) Poll is due on February 3rd by midnight. If you want to submit a weekly Poll and you're not on the Post-er list, just let us know and we'll set you up. Also, you'll notice that we don't have every D3 team listed. There are a lot of D3 Men teams so we only included the Top 100 (from last season). If at any point you need to add a team, just let us know and we'll add it.

For obvious and less obvious reasons, I've added Password Protection to the Poll Submission page. If you're a Forum Poll-er, message (or e-mail) me and I'll send you the password.

Dehuntshigwa’es (and all poll-ers, as an announcement), I received 2 polls from you. They happen to be the exact same so there's no questions but, in the future, when someone submits two, e-mail/pm me or I'll assume the 2nd is the better one.

Dehunt, trying to slip in TWO #1 votes for W&L? Slick, very slick ;)

I personally look forward to hearing from all the contrarians, who are “too busy” to take part and place their weekly votes, but WILL find the time weekly to pick apart the educated guess work of others.

I am interested in giving it a try! I could use a good reason to keep up with the broader D3 landscape and watch some games from new teams!
