Has anyone noticed a problem with the proposal voting in Groups at the moment?
A few days ago, I posted a proposal and voted in it myself. I could see the next day that I had voted and I know others in my group voted also. Today it was meant to be ended, and I've not received a message. Moreover, looking in the proposal list, there are no active proposals and no archives proposals....which to me is puzzling since I've definitely voted in one!
I've even checked my email and there are no forwarded IMs from the group about the proposal ending and the results.
Leo Mission is confused!
Is this a known issue? I cant' see mention of it in the section in the forums about those. Many thanks for any ideas.

It may be that if you set it up for a certain number of votes, and you did not get that number of votes, then it vanished because of that, it was never calculated, and just died because the time limit was up and it did not meet criteria.
This happened two times for a vote we did at a club I work at.

I am just giving you the experience I observed personally, because when the deadline hit, there was no message, and the vote simply vanished like it had never been made. It was a rather important vote, so my boss ended up sending the staff a notecard and we did the vote like that, but at least we managed to get it done.

From: Brenda Connolly I had a vanishing proposal once in RL..........he proposed, then vanished. Did you then cage and orbit him in retaliation?

Speaking of proposals...is there somewhere that explains how to set a poll up?
