I forgot to mention that this was done on another project of mine a while ago, and now I have come to the same dilemma. This time I decided to ask if it was a smart thing to do.
Jimbo, the project I did that with was a poll website where it kept track of what specific users voted, so you could see things like how many people voted yes to poll A and poll B. I had the "user_n" tables basically just keep a record of all of their answers. I then had each poll record on the poll table keep a simple tally on the votes, as well as the ID of each user that voted.
And I've actually come up with a better way to do the project I'm currently working on, but I still can't think of a better way I could have done the poll thing. For curiosity's sake, can anyone think of a better way to do that?
