What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I was wondering what happened to that question. Oops.

Yeah. I was looking forward to seeing the answers to that one.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Another poll!

Wait, we should vote on whether we need another poll.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

Yes because COMM was left off the essential threads list. I have a top two and then about a seven-way-tie for third.

Er...do you maybe want to explain what the heck the poll is?

Cause honestly, I don't normally read bureaucracy. And just suddenly saw msbelle spamming everywhere saying "Take the poll!" and not saying what it was or why, and was very confused?

It's a poll to gauge people's board usage because we're having a Culture Crisis because of people's desires for more TV threads.

Yeah, I read back in Bureau, and took the poll, but....maybe to go back and edit some of those (especially the one in press) to ahve a little more info than just "Take the poll!"? For people who don't read here, and may not have time to go check it? Or may not REALIZE that bureaucrazy is the place to get more info? If you have no idea what it's about (and perhaps are fearsome of clicking on links for something you don't know what it's about), you might just surf right on by.

If we're actually re-doing the poll, can we have an option to click more than three threads as "essential"? Like, maybe, these three, and then I frequent these other five? Because, f'instance, when a Tim show is airing, Minearverse becomes essential. When it's the soaps and crafts thread, NSM. (Not that there's anything wrong with that.)

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

we are not re-doing the poll, at least I am not. It was up for comment already. I know it is not perfect, but it's better than nothing for what we wanted.
