Blackheart:
I am glad you are so enthousiastic about polling for embassies. But posting polls isn't as easy as it appears. I'm not claiming I can post good polls, but I do have more experience in it.
How I would have posted this poll:
1 - The question you want polled. I think your question: "Where would you like our second (and only our second) embassy to be established?" is too much leaning one way. I would have formulated it less leaning. Something like: "We've set up an embassy with the Iroquois. Do we want to set up more Embassies ?"
2 - Background information. In your poll I'm sailing blindly on what it would cost us, how much money we have to spend, what nations are up on us and what nations are down on us etc.
For instance:
"We have 161 gold, making -2 gpt. We have 7 cities and 3 settlers ready.
Rome has 1 gold, 6 cities, are annoyed with us and are down Polytheism. An Embassy would cost us 30 gold. We have explored their complete capital, so no extra map-info is gained."
Babylon has ...
etc.
3 - Clear and smart options, which answer the question polled, in a logical order.
* No, we don't want more embassies yet.
* Yes, but with only 1 more nation.
* Yes, with 2 more nations.
* Yes, with 3 more nations.
* Yes, with every nation we currently know. This will cost us XXX gold.
* Abstain.
4 - If you choose this setup; only 1 extra poll is needed (let's assume 1,2 or 3 nation - embassy wins). A multiple option poll stating all possible nations we can have an embassy with and the voters are allowed to vote for the number that won. Let's say "Yes, with 3 more nations." won, then in the next poll the citizens can vote for 3 seperate nations.
