Tournament timer - voting: 1: bonus time per battle. 4 polls in one thread!

I also decided to conduct polls and determine the chess timer, but not for the season, but for tournaments, primarily for the "Favorites" tournament, which I plan to run with a timer by default next time.

I will try to do this using the method proposed by Wicc, with a clarification from Dirty_Player.
As far as I know, a bonus of 1 or 2 minutes is added per battle; other times are used very rarely. Since we are interested in a chess timer in this case, there will be no options for the SoD timer.
We will divide the templates into 4 groups, as proposed by Wicc.
That is, you need to choose 4 options - one for each group of templates - 1 or 2 minutes. Do not vote if you have not played on some templates or if you don't care.

Choose 4 answer options for different templates. I prefer that the bonus time per battle is: 94
1 min for XL+U templates (8mm6a, 8xm12a, 6lm10a, Spider, Nostalgia)
2 min for XL+U templates (8mm6a, 8xm12a, 6lm10a, Spider, Nostalgia)
1 min for the Jebus Cross XL-U template
2 min for the Jebus Cross XL-U template
1 min for Diamond, Mini-Nostalgia, Anarchy templates
2 min for Diamond, Mini-Nostalgia, Anarchy templates
1 min for 2SM4d(3), balance, Panic, Terra dei Demoni templates
2 min for 2SM4d(3), balance, Panic, Terra dei Demoni templates

The poll will last 3 weeks. If you accidentally made a mistake and chose something you didn't want, write in the thread, and I will take this into account when summarizing the results.
Summarizing the results.
Theoretically, various options are possible with such polls. We calculate the arithmetic mean: (the number of votes for 1 min multiplied by 60 seconds) + (the number of votes for 2 min multiplied by 120 seconds) and divide by the total number of voters. After that, we round the result to a certain accuracy.
1) if we round to the nearest minute, then we actually get the time based on the absolute majority of votes (i.e., if 41 people voted for 1 min on Jebus, and 40 voted for 2 minutes), then we set the result to 1 minute,
2) we can calculate the result accurately - to 1 second or round to the nearest 10 sec, 20 sec, 30 sec and set this time in the rules.
Based on general considerations, I think we will get approximately 1 minute 20 seconds - 1 minute 30 seconds for different groups of templates. How will we round the result?

1) XL+U (8mm6a, 8xm12a, 6lm10a, Spider, Nostalgia)
2) Jebus
3) Diamond, Mini-Nostalgia, Anarchy
4) CM Balance, Panic, TDD

2) XL-U (Jebus)
3) L+U with comps (Diamond, Mini-Nostalgia, Anarchy)
4)
5) L+U and L-U (CM Balance, Panic, TDD)
