I think the polls should be updated. Their is currently no way for the creator or a poll that I know of to see the results of their own poll without voting on it.

An example that I have are my two newest polls:

I want to find out what Last Names people liked best for a project I'm working on. I set up my polls not for me to vote on but for others to. Then when I fix it by taking out the names no one voted on and adding a voting spot for me to click on without impacting the results; I got someone clicking on that vote as well even though I clearly typed in their that that option was only for me.

My suggestion is to put and option to do different polls like one where you can see the results or maybe lock votes so no one can click on them as well. This way if you don't decide to make a option for the creator to see the votes they can do what I did without anyone clicking on the "This is for me only. No clicking." option.

If you visit your own userpage in a private tab/as a guest, you can see the results of your poll. :b

Plus I'm pretty sure most of the time we create polls and choose favorable options for us to vote on ourselves so I don't see the point in implementing this suggestion. ^^;;

Title: @-Mal

I see what you mean but that to me seems like a lot of work just to view your own poll unless you vote.

I also don't see that happening too most of the polls I see are people asking others to vote on what they should hunt for next. Like a shiny hunt or a megable.
