Ugly sweater contest voting with a QR code

Give every sweater a number, put one QR code on the screen, and let the whole party vote from their phones instead of judging by the loudest cheer.

Make one poll per category, list the contestants as options, and close voting before the prize is handed out.

Tips from running these live

  • Use numbers, not names, at work parties where not everyone knows each other.
  • Choose results after close if you want to keep the tally hidden until voting ends.
  • Run a lights-and-bells category separately so the quietly ugly sweaters still have a chance.
  • Test duplicate-vote controls before the event. The default uses a device cookie, so guests sharing Wi-Fi can vote separately. Clearing cookies or using another browser can allow another vote; voter identity is not verified.
