Crown the best Movember mustache with a ranked vote
A Movember mustache contest runs for a whole month, so the judging should be worth the itch. Have every grower send a clean-shaven photo on November 1 and a final photo at the end of the month. Add the final photos to a Rankd, share the link in the group chat or work channel, and let everyone rank every mustache. The winner is the one people ranked high across the group, not the one whose friends cheered loudest at the bar.
- Big Mike’s handlebar
- Tom’s classic chevron
- Raf’s pencil mustache
- Jay’s horseshoe
- Dan’s “still working on it”
- Eli’s walrus
Free. Add your own options (these are just examples), then send one link to your group.
Why ranking beats a regular poll here
- Photos let remote friends and coworkers judge every mustache, not just the ones they see.
- The full order gives the patchy entries their own moment at the reveal.
- Private rankings mean nobody has to tell a friend their mustache came last.
How it works
- Add the question and 3 to 30 options
- Send one private link to the group
- Everyone ranks privately, in about a minute
- You reveal the winner
Tips
- Take every final photo straight on, in good light, against a plain background.
- Make separate Rankds for “best overall” and “most improved” if you want two winners.
- If your group is raising money, handle donations on your fundraising page; Rankd only runs the vote.
Questions
When should we vote?
Collect final photos on the last day of November and set the reveal for the first few days of December, before anyone shaves.
Can people see how I ranked?
No. Each person’s order stays private. Everyone sees the group’s final order and where they personally landed, never anyone else’s individual ranking.
Is it free? Does everyone need the app?
Rankd is free and runs in the browser, so there is nothing to download. Friends open the link from any group chat (iMessage, WhatsApp, Slack, email) and rank in about a minute.
