We should probably do live updates on the results page
Having to rely on hitting refresh is kind of not cool
Probably do something more complicated than call refresh, though.

Landing page slug entry area should incorporate validity checking

Also, the api point slug_is_valid is returning false if the slug already exists, even if it is valid

Right now, typing in something like "askr.xyz/some space separated name" will bring you to the poll creation page for that poll, but if you try to submit, you are just brought to that same poll creation page again - probably because poll creation fails

We should either allow spaces in names or bring the user to some sort of error page

Moreover, going to something like "askr.xyz/poll.name" is valid, but "askr.xyz/pollname.html" will bring up some rails default error page. Probably should be consistent here.

One suggestion would be to add some static numbers to the left of each option in the draggable poll response page, to show what ranking value the user will be assigning the item they're dragging.

Another option would be having one line underneath the poll question that says "Drag choices in order of preference (highest at the top)", or something to that effect.

If we put in exessively long text into the option field the application will generate an error instead of showing the voting page.

This should be either fixed by updating the option validation code or by accomodating for longer option text on the backend

If we have excessively long option text, it just kind of breaks through the side of the voting option
This text should wrap, up to increasing the height of the button

Right now when a user enters a slug that matches an existing poll, the app simply takes them to the voting page for that poll, which is confusing behaviour, as to get there, the user clicks on the "Start a New Poll" button, and not a "Navigate to this URL" button.

I have student loans to pay and need big $$$
Please figure out how we can wring every single penny from this project.

To me, "sort" is developer-speak. Users might better understand a wording like "rank choices". My 2¢.
