Still can't vote.

Can we have another poll for the number of attempts it takes to get this poll right?

Can someone with more brains and ability than me sort it?

6000 for the last set and 5000 for the set before that. The people paying for them are getting a bit tired of it apparently

10 - 12 as a daily driver, it would be a lot less if it was just a weekend tool.
