Votes only in this thread, please. I have addressed the comments about a separate category for excluded cards in the main PR thread. Let's talk about it there and feel free to revise your vote if you like.
I believe WoTC's new policy is to make sure that every color can enjoy the exciting gameplay mechanic of making undercosted dudes and then turning them sideways. Clearly the future of magic.

But ideally, a separate voting category for these card types. However if that isn't possible, I'd rather vote on them with other cards than not at all.

This poll is now closed. The community has spoken!
Here are the results:
On Question #1: Should green creatures that produce non-green mana be categorized as GREEN or MULTICOLOR?
The community has voted that they will be categorized as GREEN in this year's Power Rankings by a vote of 26-11 with 1 abstention.
On Question #2: Should cards with Conspiracy in their type line be INCLUDED in or EXCLUDED from this year's Rankings?
The community has voted to EXCLUDE all Conspiracies from this year's Power Rankings by a vote of 20-18. They are not to be voted on in any currently existing category, including the Overall rankings.
On Question #3: Should spell cards that reference drafting be INCLUDED in or EXCLUDED in this year's Rankings?
The community has voted to INCLUDE all spell cards that reference drafting in this year's Power Rankings by a vote of 24-14. They are to be categorized by the color of their casting costs or as Land (i.e. Paliano, the High City) and also considered as candidates for the Overall rankings. Here is &name=+![backdraft]+![downdraft]]a Gatherer link for all cards meeting this criteria.
On Question #4: Should silver-bordered cards from Unglued and Unhinged be INCLUDED in or EXCLUDED from this year's Rankings?
The community has voted to EXCLUDE all spell cards that reference drafting in this year's Power Rankings by a vote of 24-14.
I ask all community members to respect this vote and to evaluate all cards the community has voted to include fairly and honestly as you can based on their ability to contribute to game wins in a traditional cube environment, as well as to refrain from voting on any cards that have been voted as excluded.
As some members have requested a separate category for non-traditional cards including Conspiracies and silver-bordered cards, there will be a 2nd straw poll on that issue in a separate thread.
Thanks to all 38 members who participated in this straw poll, I am looking forward to seeing all of you vote in the Power Rankings!
Feel free to discuss these results here or in the main 2016 Power Rankings thread.

On spoiled card wishlisting and 'should-have-had'-isms:
+1
Exactly this, word for word.
