Desired Polling Feature Support Apolyton or Terrorists Win

The feature I'd like to see instituted in the Post a Poll feature would be the inclusion of the time the poll is cheduled to end. (Even cooler would be a countdown feature...)

In situations like elections for the demogames, this can be crucial information. (The poster does not always mention the number of days a poll will be open, so looking up the time of the first post is not necessarily informative.)

Prior to demogames, it was seldom that any Poly poll even received an end date. Now they are the norm, with election and game outcomes at stake.

Whattya think, Markos?

Avatar Enlargement: We've got the solution

Doesn't it say: "This poll will close in X days" at the bottom of them.

I can't be sure, but I think I've seen that before.
