#WenFlight10?

[jongoff]

I change my vote from july to september. 

If I were to reopen the poll, I think I would go with September as well.

What do you guys say:

1- Should I leave the poll as-is and say that "unexpected events should always be part of your calculus when estimating launch dates?"

2- Should I reopen the poll for a week, and enable people to change their votes?
3- Should I start a new poll "WenFlight10_PostS36Kablooey" or something like that to leave the original votes alone, but provide people a chance to update things?

Yes and yes.

Agreed.

Launch date irrelevant for now until setback resolved..

it’s a pretty poor sports bettor who can’t make a bet when there’s any element of ambiguity or chance.

Yeah, I've usually done my launch polls within a few days of the most recent launch attempt for precisely that reason.

Ok, new poll is live here: https://forum.nasaspaceflight.com/index.php?topic=63107.0

I'm going to have it up for 5 days. We may have some info by then, but once again trying to force people to share what they're thinking now before we have all of the data (when it's no longer as fun or interesting).
