Can I see which parts are missing?

The best times name who can't make each one. Ask singers to put their part in the note, and you'll see it beside their name on your private link.

Why days of the week rather than dates?

Because you're looking for a regular night. Singers answer “Thursdays at 7:30 pm” rather than one particular Thursday.

Can I lock in the night?

Not on a days-of-the-week poll, because there's no date. Close it and tell everyone the night with “Tell people something”.

Choir practice scheduling poll

Find the weeknight most of the choir can make.

A scheduling poll for a weekly choir practice: everyone marks the weeknights they're usually free, and the best time comes out on top. Each one names whoever can't make it, and it's quicker than a show of hands after the service.

How to set it up

Check the nightsIt asks about Monday to Thursday, 6:00 to 9:30 pm in half-hours. Take off any night the building isn't free.
Send it to the choirNobody needs an account, and it works on any phone.
Read the best timesThey show the stretches when the most singers are free, and name who can't make each one. Check the parts are balanced before you choose.
Tell the choirA days-of-the-week poll has no date to lock in. Use “Tell people something” to email everyone the night you chose.

What helps

Look at who's missing from each best time, not just how many. A night without any tenors is a hard night to rehearse.
Ask singers to put their part in the note, so you can check the balance. Notes are only shown to you.
Make sure the director fills it in first. The best time has to be one they can make.
With a free account, a repeating practice lets singers say which weeks they're away, and lays the weeks out once you pick a time.

Something to send with the link

Copy it into a text, an email or the group chat, change what you like, and paste your link at the end.
