2) Generates less discussion.

3) Promotes laziness and if they can't think of a 10th one, most people will just randomly pick one to finish off the poll.

4) It would have to be split up into multiple polls, which doesn't promote what we are after. What are the odds that people are actually going to follow directions and vote for 10 total between the two polls?

I agree.

I would be against going to a poll.
