This poll is uniquely distorted by the multitude of different reasons people might have for not voting, or for voting a certain way. Ideally, "I'm going with my gut" as curi asked. Sometimes "I'm a confident winner, so I'm voting top 5%" Sometimes "It would be arrogant to vote above average; I'll vote average." Sometimes "This poll is dumb. I usually vote but I'll lurk." Sometimes "This poll is hilarious. I usually lurk but I'll vote." Sometimes "This poll is so dumb I'm voting bottom 5% just because I considered voting in it." Sometimes "I'll vote for all options; everybody has good/bad days." Sometimes "Can you really vote more than one? Let me try..." For pg to casually mention a source of error that applies to all news.yc polls is like walking up to someone who's been splattered head to toe by a passing truck and saying, "You've got something next to your mouth, right there."
