Do you ever get stuck choosing a best response?

Usually I try to pick up a best response, if more people have said similar things and they are all good, I usually choose the first of them that posted the answer. I think I can give a 'timing' bonus. Lol

Yes! It seems that some people only chose the first response. I kind of think that is a cop out. I would like to see someone really think about the responses and put as much effort as the writer put into the response.

Yes, I do especiall when I have more that one good answer. I ish we could give more than one best answer, but since we can't, I will take time making sure I pick just the right onw. I will read and reread posts, because it is is easy to miss something in each posts, so by going over them, I will see something that I missed before and then I can pick the best responses. I do wait awhile to give best reaponse as mylot says we are to wait at least a week before we give them, but I have a tendnecy to wait a lot longer, as it give anyone an oportunity to respond that want to. Good luck to you and happy mylotting.

Well, I have never been stuck when choosing a best response. I hardly ever award one, so when I do I will give it to the person who really made the response unique and put a lot of work into it. When I see that one person has gone up and beyond and made an exceptional response that sticks out from the rest then I will award the response. If they all seem the same, I will not reward one even if they are great. If they all impress me equally then it wouldn't be fair to just give the best response to one person, would it?

Hi Skye blue. Yes it's so difficult to chose a best response. But I am sure, that people wouldn't be angry if you chose the answer to another user and not their... Everybody knows that choosing best responses is not easy and no one will be mad on you. :)) It's difficult and needs time to chose the best response and I think that nobody will tell : ' Why her/him response? Why not my?'

I still have a lot of discussions unresolved. But I think I'm gonna give the first person to respond as the best response eventhough its a little unfair, thats the only thing we could do. Thanks for creating the discussion it helped me too. :)

Sometimes I do, but I go back and I reread everything and usually when there are several that I like, something strikes me about one of them that I like a little bit better than the other.

I think most friends here may have met such a ssituation before. Sometimes, it is really a difficult task for us to choose a best response because there are many wonderful answers. Everytime, when my discussion has gotten many responses, then I will face the difficulty to choose a best response, expecially there are several high-quality responses. You see, if I choose one of them as the best one, then it is unfair to others. So, at last, my decision is not to choose any responses as the best response. Although I know it is a little weird, I have no choice but do like that. Happy myLotting!
