Some of you may have noticed that the rookie platform TAS, glitchy TAS and speedy TAS polls haven't opened yet. This is because the current phpBB setup only allows for polls with a maximum of ten choices, and each of these categories has more than 10 nominations. Please suggest what you think should be done to remedy this situation.

two topics/category to have all the options of the polls? aka: 6 topics for the 3 categories. I think my option is annoying, but simple. And obviously, they will only stay around for a short time.

Hax teh src. Surely the "problem" is that phpBB has something like
if(pollChoices > 10) { return STUPID_ERROR_MESSAGE; }
Right?

Is this for real? phpBB admin settings plain out has a field for what is the max poll options you would like. I upped it to 1520. Any admin can easily up it to higher than that if need be.
