The poll is beginning to confuse me

Rockruff says that the bottom option is the one for three categories but it says there are two on the poll.

I think LHBB is also right in that the bottom option makes it look like free items are one category and store items are another entirely.

@LHBB I disagree though that it means that all store items, including retired and current.

My interpretation even though i’m finding the poll a little difficult to follow is.

Option 1
Three categories
1) all free items
2) all free items + store items that aren’t retired
3 all free items + all store items, current and retired

Option 2
Two categories
1) all free items
2) all free items + complete store items, current and non retired

The wording for option two 2) makes it look like however that store items will be counted on their and you will not need free items for the complete collection.

correct me if i’m wrong and option two is indeed saying that the store items will be counted independently of free items. Because I would need to change my vote as I believe that store items should only count along side all the free items.

Really sorry about that! Laughably in trying to clarify my own confusing wording I made the mistake of mixing the two up and swapping them around. ^^;

Sorry, yeah you're right. 2) would require all free items AND all complete store items.

Was this how most other people read it? If not I'll change the wording and rerun the poll with the above wording as I think it makes more sense.

Thanks for your patience with my shenanigans everyone!

Thank you for clarifying. I wouldn't see a need to re-poll as people can just change their vote if they want. Maybe instead of saying all in one category say both current & retired.

Im fine with either two or three, it doesnt really matter for me either way because i have a complete collection in both pets and items, retired, store and everything. Anything thats in the archives.

Did the wording on the page change tho? It now reads as ‘exclusing rainbow smoothie flags AND retired store items’ and i dont recall that ever being there (but then again i completed in 2016 so..). If thats the case, it should be changed back to what it was and new categories should be added instead :) afterall, the people on that list have a complete colletion set to the old standards, with everything in the archives in their possesion and the only excluded things are the semi custom items.

the wording change is what sparked this discussion so I'm figuring depending on the final results of this poll that will determine the new wording.

Small correction to my hoard (Largest Litter 2015 dog hoard) : accounts/viewgroup.php?groupid=4597167&userid=567610

I changed my username quite a bit ago but my hoard is still listed under Penguinpapa. If you could update that that'd be rad!
