Voted, right now it seems about evenly split between No and Yes. More votes needed!!

How does the gamefaq poll show any more justification than the one here?
I just waltzed in,voted, and left.
Anyone can vote on that, even if they don't have the game.
Pro-enders grandmothers can vote for crying out loud.

True, but the difference is that here, most who come are at least interested in the game.  On the gamefaqs front page, that isn't necessarily the case.

This is a terrible poll. It needs the "Yes, it's not a well written ending" option.

I find this poll at least a little unfair. Being on as open a forum as it is, a lot of people will vote having never played ME3 (IE Wii users)/ never heard of the issues and just think the very concept of changing an ending makes us sound entitled.

Another way the poll is unfair -- it is purposely constructed to divide the "yes" vote. It's meant to take the majority of us, slice us into smaller pieces, so that those that vote "no" actually appear to be the majority.

SO remember when you cote on polls such as this, the answer must always be a resounding, unapologetic "yes" in favor of what we want to occur, or your vote doesn't count.

Held that there line, there.

 For the record, gamefaqs polls also showed Kinect to be unpopular right up until launch.  I think we all know how good of a gauge that proved to be.

This poll is flawed. Any "poll" that has shades of grey as options, is invalid. You can have black, white and one shade of grey as choices.

The answers should have been
Yes
Maybe
No

As has already been stated, they make polls with specific wording so that it will tip the balance of the results toward the poll creators preferred outcome.

Option A: I want new endings, but I like to burn kittens with my bic lighter

Option B: Give it to them so they shut up

Option C: I stand by BioWare's artistic integrity, apple pie, and all that is good in this world

 The problem with this poll is there are too many people voting who have not finished the game or never played the game.  Despite that it is still an even split, nevertheless, this poll should be taken for even less of a grain of salt than many of the others.

Yup, agreed. They really needed a "I never played any Mass Effect game" option on the poll. It's like asking someone who doesn't care a bit about politics who they'd vote for and why. Their opinion means nothing.

EDIT: A bad example, but all my mind can come up with this late, but I'll leave the sentiment as it is.

This kind of poll is quite unreasonable....

People who don't know anything about the issue will come and see '' Oh ..some angry fans trying to change a game's ending ?! That is not cool ! '' and they vote in favor for Bioware.

They actually need to make an article and THEN use the poll to see the results....sadly I guess that is too much to ask from News sites these days...

It's their way of saying "Hey, look! We made a poll! It was the minority all along, just as we had said! Our poll was totally unbias!" when they known darn well that the wording of the choices is playing a huge part on how outsiders are voteing. They did a good job in making outsiders believe all that want the ending changed are just whinners and that Bioware is the victim.

[stwu]

Bad poll, but I held the line!

[DarkNova50]

Hold that line, dammit!

[ReavousX]

I'd say polls like this need to get thrown up on the Retake ME facebook page. Stuff like this slips through the cracks. Voted, line has been held.

Also, as others have said, these options are ridiculous.

[pomrink]

Top option is about to overtake bottom lol

[ericjdev]

Voted

[KenbroSlice]

The funny thing is the top 2 (and the middle option to a much lesser degree) are all in favor of a change, and the top is STILL right on the heels of the bottom.

Vocal minority my behind.

[The_Crazy_Hand]

Also for the record folks, since ending fixes will probably come in paid DLC, you don't have to be a majority to get your way. Just a sizable enough audience to warrant a decent sized profit. So even if our option polls lower than the obviously biased no answer, it can still help us.

This doesn't mean we shouldn't keep voting yes of course. We damned well should. Just don't get discouraged if it doesn't go that way. Even if gamefaqs wasn't infamous for having polls that are out of sync with how things actually play out, it wouldn't mean much. 20,000 yes votes is 20,000 garenteed $10-$15 purchases, with a number several times that being highly likely. So numbers, will likely help us more than percentages.

[AlphaDormante]

Not sure if this has been mentioned, but the number of votes for "yes" outweighs the number of votes for "no" when the totals are combined with their respective, not-entirely-committal options.

Even if that weren't the case, the margin of difference between "yes" and "no" is far, far smaller than anyone at BioWare/EA should rightly be comfortable with.

"Absolutely not it's their story, and they decide how it ends."

No, it's OUR story. That's the entire point of Mass Effect. Being able to make decisions to make our OWN story and dictate the ending. People who voted for that probably have never played Mass Effect.

This is where the poll fails. Anyone looking at it just assumes we're acting like entitled 7 year olds.
Its not the case.

Thanks for the link!
