Can the number of entries in a Poll be increased to 30?

Hi,
I've run two photography contests and would like to ask if the number of poll entries in a thread could be increased to 30. That way we could have just one contest instead of having three ten image polls and then another with the top ten images. Perhaps a poll over 10 could be restricted some way that only authorized individuals could conduct them.

Not a big deal, but it would be nice.

Regards,
PuppyBismark
