Date poll
Propose the dates, everyone ticks all that fit, and the most-voted one wins by itself. No more “I can't make that day” threads.
Who it's for: Team dinners, meetings, meetups, training sessions: any plan involving more than three calendars.

When to use it
- You're six or more people and “when shall we meet?” has been bouncing around the group for three days.
- You run a recurring session (training, rehearsal, club) and want to fix the day with data, not with whoever shouts loudest.
- You're planning ahead (holiday dinner, offsite) and need real availability before booking anything.
What's inside and why
- Your name
- So you know who hasn't answered yet and who can't make the winning date — without names you can't close the plan.
- Which dates work for you? (multi)
- Multi-select on purpose: ticking ALL workable dates (not just the favorite) is what makes the common date emerge. It's the Doodle mechanic — without accounts or ads.
- Comment (optional)
- The nuance that saves plans: “I can make it but arrive at 9pm” changes the decision without polluting the tally.
Tips to get the most out of it
- Edit the options with YOUR real dates (day + time slot): “Saturday 18 · morning” decides better than plain “Saturday 18”.
- Offer 3 to 6 dates: two gives no flexibility, ten gets skimmed — six is the useful maximum.
- Set a deadline (“answer by Thursday”) and share the live results: seeing “Saturday evening” in the lead nudges the undecided.
Frequently asked questions
How is this different from Doodle?
Same mechanic (everyone ticks the dates that work; the most-ticked wins), but free with unlimited participants, no ads, no sign-up to vote, and live results on a shareable link.
Do participants see who voted what?
They see the live per-date tally (how many can make each day). Individual answers with names are visible to you in the dashboard — enough to chase whoever's missing.
What if two dates tie?
The board shows the tie, and comments usually break it (“I'd arrive late that day”). If not, cut it short: pick the one that suits the organizer — you're the one making the plan happen.
