I note some of my confusion that might have been shared by others. I initially had thought that the option from users was between binary “agree” and “disagree” and thought the method by which a user could choose was by dragging to one side or another. I see now that this would signify maximal agreement/disagreement, although maybe users like me might have done so in error. Perhaps something that could indicate this more clearly would be helpful to others.
Thanks Brad, I didn’t foresee that! (Agree react Brad’s comment if you experienced the same thing). Would it have helped if we had marked increments along the slider? Like the below but prettier? (our designer is on holiday)
Yeah, if there were markers like “neutral”, “slightly agree”, “moderately agree”, “strongly agree”, etc. that might make it clearer.
After the decision by the user registers, a visual display that states something like “you’ve indicated that you strongly agree with the statement X. Redrag if this does not reflect your view or if something changes your mind and check out where the rest of the community falls on this question by clicking here.”

Another idea could be to ask, “How many EA resources should go do this, per year, for the next 10 years?”
Options could be things like,
“$0″, “$100k”, “1M”, “100M”, etc.
Also, maybe there could be a second question for, “How sure are you about this?”
Interesting. Certainty could also be a Y-axis, but I think that trades off against simplicity for a banner.
