Just succumb to the masses. I did like 2 somewhat unconventional polls while I was doing LRs and got so many PMs about it, so I just did the standard Yes No If you have time.
or OR you go for Good, Bad and Ugly
Or totally random it and be all "Fanta, Alligators, Chicken Salad"

The polls are more helpful for people who want to see interesting games to learn about the game/players etc. I might be wrong, but it sounds odd to me that people care enough to avoid being spoiled and still only watch games voted to be "worth watching".
Yes, it's exactly how I do it when I look at polls. I even look at the winner, but I want to know if the game is interesting or not. A 5 option "funny" poll doesn't really help in this case. I don't know if it was ridiculously bad or ridiculously good.
I have never EVER done a 5 option "funny" poll. That much I assure you
Yes I'm exaggerating a bit. But I can probably find one with four
Nope. I never go past 4. I also never leave out "no" and "if you have time".

Match 4: Game Two Bomber vs Curious Belshir Beach Bomber spawning at 11 o'clock, Curious spawning at 5 o'clock.
3:00 One rax expand from Bomber, Hatch first for Curious.
4:00 Early reactor on the Barracks, pumping a few extra marines before swapping it over to the factory, a roach warren already on the way for Curious.
6:30 Curious making 7 Roaches, a scan reveals the roach warren and now bomber is throwing up several bunkers.
8:00 The roaches force Bomber's expansion to lift momentarily but doesn't do a ton of damage otherwise. Stim finishing.
9:30 Curious getting a macro hatch before his 3rd, and pumping out a good number of zerglings.
11:00 Bomber pushing down with a tiny marine marauder ball, but gets caught by Curious' lings. He lifts them up in the Medivac and retreats with them.
12:30 Big ling counter attack runs strait into Bomber's main with all of the supply depots left unraised, and does a ton of damage, but Bomber is able to take out Curious' 3rd in the meantime.
14:30 Curious catches some tanks with his mutas, and then cleans up a big Bomber army that was pushing down the map with banelings. Bomber is 30 harvesters down.

Just make normal polls with "yes", "no", "if you have time" and nobody would complain. It was always like that and it's not a bad thing. There are a lot of people who can't watch GSL live and don't have the time to watch all the games so they pick only the best vods. In your polls it's sometimes hard to see if this game is recommended or not. And sometimes you write things like "OMG what a game etc" when the game wasn't that awesome.
So I think the best idea is to stay with the old format and when there is a really REALLY fucking awesome game (like Nestea vs sC) then it's ok imo to write other things! But these games are rare!
Don't take it personal when guys want normal polls! You're doing an fantastic job with your LR threads and you are even LRing often. Everyone appreciates this! <3

Or...
DO IT IN KOREAN.
(DO IT)
THIS.
This has to be done...or do it with K-Pop titles.
Just replace the entire poll with K-pop cuties, people who look at it will be forced to watch all the games.
