I agree. Sometimes, I think I know how the show is going, so I go ahead and vote. Then I turn out to be wrong. The show is much better/worse than I originally believed. I have changed my mind about the set. Rats. I wish I could change my vote.

I dont think its polite to have a bucket option in DJ's mixes I prefer to have the option Thanks not my style instead of it to be honest!
I just think its rude

Maybe. But "not my style" does not mean "I hate it". It means it's not your style. And since there are about 100 different styles of EDM, it's a valid choice for THAT particular meaning.
"Pretty bad" is the opposite of "Good". We have NO opposite for MASSIVE! We really need one. Not having one is, let's face it, gutless. I don't care what it says, as long as it is the same in strength and exactly opposite in meaning to MASSIVE!.
We need something to express "I hate it". It needs to be just like MASSIVE!, in UPPERCASE with the "!" on the end for the emphasis.
What word or phrase would you all believe is appropriate for the weak-kneed among us to us? I liked BUCKET!. It got the point across, and it didn't say, " I HATE IT, YOU SUCK!", which I do agree would be a bit over the top. (Even if that is what I think of Marcus Schossow.)
If BUCKET! is too honest for you all, then suggest something else in the same intensity and opposite meaning as MASSIVE!. That's all I'm really asking for here.

"Not my style" only means those things if you completely forget about language and what the words actually mean.
Uplift, Epic, Melodic, and Progressive ARE MY STYLES. Those are the ones that I love the most. In moderation, I also like Psy/Goa, Hardstyle, Chill, and some House and some Vocal.
Techno, Tribal, Drum & Bass, Electro House, Pop, Ambient, most Vocal, most House, Eurodance, Hardcore, Breaks and Gabber are NOT MY STYLES. Generally speaking, if those come on, I go, "Barf, puke, not my style!", and then I go listen to 100p.nl for something COMPLETELY different until something that IS my style comes back on. .
But if it is my style, but it has been ruined by bad track selection, bad transitions, bad behavior by the DJ, whatever, then "Not my style" just doesn't apply. "Pretty bad" comes the closest, but it's the opposite of "Good". "Decent" is perfect for the "middle of the road". Not bad, not good, just so-so. It doesn't need an "opposite", it's the center.
MASSIVE! has NO opposite. Clearly, logically, it does not.
Come on folks, suggest an opposite for MASSIVE! It has to be in this format: UPPERCASE!

and there lies ur answer...
imo its pretty pointless...and unprofessional to have an offensive like term be added as a vote option that is represented to be hatred towards a DJs set. (especially the term, BUCKET)
if u don't like something, simply tune out and go listen to something else as u mentioned and let the poll run in the normal fashion it has always been running. The poll is just fine as it is. PERIOD.
The End.
PS: However, a change vote option for the polls would be a good option to have in the future.

I'll give everyone to the end of the week to suggest an opposite to MASSIVE!, then close this Thread. I will announce the official Poll results then in my SIG, as if they aren't obvious already. Ha!

Honestly I don't see the need for an opposite to MASSIVE!.. seeing as most of the sets here are fairly good to amazing..
besides I think people would abuse the new option since it's filled with emotion ( if you yell something like "BUCKET" at a standup comedian..it hurts more than just telling him you didn't like it very much")

The way it is
I might not like a DJ/track, but would never say it should be canned.

We have a winner
Okay. The people have spoken.
Leave it the way that it is is the clear winner of this poll.
However, Dan, if you read this, it has been expressed that people would like to be able to change their mind, or to correct a misclick in the polls. Me too. I occasionally blow it myself. Is it possible to get that feature? It would be a very welcome one. Thank you, Dan. (kiss) 
Alrighty then, how do I delete this poll? Once you read this post, I have no further use for it. I don't see where I do that. Granted, I might just be totally out of it and just not see. Can you or a Mod tell me how to do that? Thank you very much.

Also in regards to changing the poll results well i looked into that and there is no VB option to do that, as people would be editing their results.
