Hi!


It's either me being unclear on the meaning of this expression or
something that remained in the docs from an older version. In the POT
file for the Poll module I find the string (it's the 2nd):
Users can create a poll. The title of the poll should be the question,
then enter the answers and the \"base\" vote counts. You can also choose
the time period over which the vote will run.The <a
href=\"@poll\">poll</a> item in the navigation menu will take you to a
page where you can see all the current polls, vote on them (if you
haven't already) and view the results.


Now, what on earth means /\"base\" vote/? Can't find any such thing in
the poll's interface.

It looks to me that you can set the number of votes each option will
begin with when the poll is created. I have no idea how this would
actually be useful, but who knows. When creating a poll, the base votes
are in the "Votes for Choice X" text entry box.
