Once agreements have been reached, they can place their label on each item (where it cannot be seen). After the party, you can enjoy their choices and back up their selections with a list.

Eigure 3.6 is very simple. However, it does possess two features worthy of note. First, the person who completes the form is asked to suggest follow-up action. This is a request, not a requirement.
