[Dixonary] [OT] Group Email Settings -- please vote
Originally, I changed the email settings as a test, with the idea that I'd
gather feedback later. Of course, then I got distracted and feedback was sparse. But it seemed most were at least content with the change and while I know it's hard to learn new things, I figured it'd be relearned soon enough, and that the impact of accidental private votes was a far less severe problem than the impact of public definitions (Dixons) or occasional public DQs revealing the def. Of course, the confusion of this last round (and the difficulty with Cory, of which I am a fellow user) has highlighted that perhaps having things public by default is a preferred option. Plus, Judy probably has a surplus of crowns in her closet and would really like to get rid of them, so perhaps the Dixon behavior isn't that bad after all? So can we put this to a vote? Where do we want replies sent? Please reply with one of the below two options, or optionally abstain or indicate you're happy with what the plurality of voters say. *Option 1: "To the group". * This was the previous setting that we've had for years, where both "reply" and "reply all" will be forced to the group email address. Pro: We've been playing that way for years and are used to it Votes are public by default Easier for others to doublecheck dealer score errors Email format that Coryphaeus expects Matches the behavior of "public discussion" mailing lists Matches original TAPCIS forum behavior where replies were public by default and users had to take specific action to send private email Con: Increases the chance of a Dixon or public DQ The group takes away choice from both the sender and recipient of emails on configuring replies Different reply-to behavior than normal email *Option 2: "Users decide where their replies are sent".* This is the current setting, where "Reply" goes to the author and "Reply All" goes to both the author and the recipient(s), in this case the group. Pro: Behaves like most email and email lists that aren't "public discussion" lists. Gives the dealer a choice of configuring replies (The dealer could (optionally) set the reply to the group to prevent private votes) Gives recipients a choice of replies (public "NAD" private defs by default) Reduces the chance of Dixons or public DQs Con: Not what we're used to Increases the chance of private votes and subsequent scoring confusion Not compatible with Coryphaeus Your votes? *Option 1: "To the group". * *Option 2: "Users decide where their replies are sent".* *Option 3: "It's just a game, the only votes I want to cast are for fake defs."* -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Dixonary" group.
