vroom,
How about making those proposed answers dynamic (monk-generated)?
You could modify your voting booth script to list up to seven most popular answers to date. This would ease your burden in starting a new poll. You would just have to choose and post the quest-ion, and prime it with 2 answers (which would remain at the end of list all the time)

• Don't know
• Other

At the end of poll, monks who first posted the most popular answers could perhaps get some appropriate number of XP.
