(This post is probably going to be moved, no longer that is serves it's purpose here, but eh, whatever, I don't need it anymore).
Hello Minecraft Forums. To get straight to the point, this is for my Algebra 1 class. It's my homework.
I need to take a poll of 60 people, make a pie chart, a table, etc. Now, what better way to do it, then to poll random people around the world? Great idea, right? Never mind, don't answer that.
There are 525,949 minutes in a year, would you Please take just 3 out of that time to take this poll? I would really appreciate it. The question is pretty straightforward. What is your favorite fast-food place? I ONLY NEED 60 PEOPLE POLLED! If you could please not exceed that amount of people, I would be very grateful. It would mess up my data, and that's not good. I thank you all who take place in this, and wish you a happy, healthy, non-creeper filled day!
Its the people who are voting. True, its random people. But it could be possible that people on MCF are probably going to like or hate a majority of something; like how people on the Internet would probably hate Justin Bieber/CoD/other things, but people in real life (sadly) might like those kind of people. So an Internet poll of who likes JB could be 5% like to 95% hate, but in the real world it could be 35% like to 65% hate.
Not to mention, you're giving a poll to people around the world. Some people might live in neighborhoods, cities, or even countries who doesn't even have a few fast-food resturants listed as your poll's choices. (I lived in Taipei for 3 years before and I doubt there's even one Wendy's nor White Castle resturant there. If there was, it'll be extremely rare.) If you say, some of the people from one specific country didn't have one of those resturants, he or she might either vote for the fast-food resturants their neighborhood does have, or probably "Other".
For a more accurate poll, I think you should do a poll in your own neighborhood, with all the fast-food resturants in your neighborhood as choices, and pick anyone at random.
Anyway, I pick "Other". Although I live in California now, I still like Taipei's Laya Burger.
Take 3 minutes out of our life?
You would have to be pretty dumb to have it take up that much time to pick an answer.
I chose 'other'. Chick-Fil-A is best.
Yeah, I was reading some of these, and I can see that some of these resteraunts (White Castle) don't exist in other areas of the world. I have about 3 of them here in Sothern MI. I would have put none, but that wasn't an option. I do understand that this could be biased as well, but, eh, my teacher doesn't care, and neither do I.Also, woohoo! 25 votes! Almost halfway there, and Week 1 isn't even over yet! I have two weeks to get this done. Keep voting, guys! Remember, I'd like to keep the limit at 60!
I don't like these polls much because I'm so indecisive and it will always depend on what I feel like on the day. But, I chose McDonalds because I have had a recent spike of interest in it.
Well, today happens to be collection day, ending on 39 votes! We came close, but I'll just fake the rest =D. I thank all of you who helped me with this. You didn't have to, but you rose above society and were the people that decided to help someone else out, even though you would get no personal gain whatsoever. Once again, thank you.Feel free to continue using this to post your opinions as to what your favorite "fast-food" resteraunt is! It's nice to give your random opinion every now and then, keeps you sane.
Sorry, I lied, collection day was today . We actually ended on 43 votes, as of me officially collecting the ballot. Thank you all (again) for voting, and now this post is just up for public use, I no longer need it, but it's part of the community now! Have a nice day, all!

Oh, and by the way, I'd also appreciate it if you could check out my brother's XBOX 360 Minecraft world, we could use some members.

Clicky clicky!
The only option on that list that is actually edible in a desperate situation is Burger King. Even then it is somewhat foul.
