hola gals and guys.
This articulo is basically bits and bats on what i think make a brilliant pick just that little bit extra sparkly...i don't suppose it has any real purpose but hopefully some of tu will find it useful....or a amusing read :)
5. parte superior, arriba tip number five, pick something interesting...I'm pretty certain no one really has an opinion on what color everyone's teapots are o finds the length of your finger nails amusing. It may seem like a obvious thing but don't ask a pick for the sake of just asking a pick. Ask a pick to hear people's opinions o to entertain.
4. parte superior, arriba tip number four, give a good number of decent options. Can't think of más than four? Do some research o why not add that amusing but pointless option e.g. if tu were asking "who's your favorito! tv doctor?" add the option "meh, doctors are over rated, everyone knows the nurses do the real work".
tu can really tell when someone has put a lot of effort in to pick when there's a long lista of decent options and the odd funny option will probably stop people from adding the dreaded link option
3. parte superior, arriba tip number three this is basically a bit about pick series, i think some of them can work really well especially as tu only have a limited amount of space, however pick series for the sake are easy to spot and just seem...pointless
a bit of continuity between picks is always amusing as well e.g. using the same reference
pick series work very well if your making a amount of picks about a fanpop joke, i'm sure chel won't mind me saying her link picks are a good example of this
another way pick series can improve your picks is using them for a más practical reason like link so everyone recognizes it's part of the same competition.
2. parte superior, arriba tip number two, making biased picks can be amusing but it can also be annoying.
a biased pick can go either way, they can turn out funny o really annoying
for example a biased pick in a bad way would be
"Are tu pro life o pro choice" and having the first option "pro life" and the segundo option "pro choice because i don't understand abortion is murder". That's not a fair way for people to express their opinion.
however tu could ask the pregunta on a tv mostrar "If they were to make another season what would be the best storyline" and have one of the options as "i am clearly evil as i don't want another season" and maybe use a image of a baddie from the show. It is a biased pregunta but it's not oppressing anyone's opinion and it's just a bit of fun
1. parte superior, arriba tip number one! imágenes can make all the difference in a good pick, i don't just mean adding images, although just adding them does make a pick better why not add some funny o ironic images.
...okay i'm not explaining this brilliantly so let me use some examples
asking who your think is the closest family in a tv show? why not add some imágenes of each family being dysfunctional
have tu added a ironic option to pick? e.g. asking "what do tu think of adding "all of the above" to picks?" and then having "all of the above" as a option brilliant opportunity for a amusing ironic image
tu can even use imágenes well on yes/no picks e.g. "do tu think beauty matters?" add a image of a volcán (beautiful but deadly) and the ugliest thing tu can think of...or if tu can't think of anything like that why not add a funky yes no. I made some of these earlier on today link the first ones of these, not exactly masterpieces but yes/no ain't much to work with :P
so that's my parte superior, arriba five tips, not the greatest articulo ever written but i had fun babbling away and i hope it was useful o amusing to one of tu guys :D

My latest pick pet peeve is not opinionated picks. They have been popping up frequently and are beginning to irk me almost as much as repeat picks. In case tu don't know what I am talking about, not opinionated picks are picks that ask preguntas to which there is only one answer. These can range from inquiring when the siguiente episode of a mostrar in airing to asking what the full name of a character is.
I assume that the people who create these picks just don't understand the purpose of a pick. Picks are not trivia preguntas nor are they a way to ask for factual information. If tu wish to know when a new episode airs, I suggest posting it as a forum.
I'm sorry if this was at all offensive, but I figured that escritura a soapbox was easier than giving the same spiel to every autor of a not opinionated pick.
Also, I am trying to think of a better name for this variety of picks rather than 'not opinionated picks'. Catchy names were never my forte.
