Hey Lester,
There is a bug in the Javascript that resets the max number of allowed answers to 1 when you edit a poll and add a new answer. So if you set it to 3, then press Add Answer, the number is reset back to 1, which you will likely not even notice until someone complains.
The JS re-enumerates the dropdown but forgets to reinstate the currently selected option. It should keep it the same if adding answers and drop it down by one if removing.

Confirmed fixed for adding, but removing resets to 1 rather than just keeping it the same, so it's not all fully fixed yet.
Ideally, it would:
- if last position, go to i-1, unless i==1
- if not last position, keep the same index
Hmm I tried removing the answer, it doesn't reset to 1, it still maintain the index.
Set it to the last number, then remove, it shouldn't drop back down to 1, but it does.
There we go, works like a charm now.
