POLL : Can you make a roll for existence? closing Dec 10

Postby skythorn on Sat Dec 03, 2011 5:45 am

The question is as it is - and here is an unrelated webcomic link ...

I noticed that there are about 70 or so people who voted in the last poll, and I was thinking, 'is that all the Goblin fans there are?'
'

Update 04 Dec 2011 - we have 14 voting members of Goblins thus far.
Update 05 Dec 2011 - we have 19 voting members of Goblins thus far.
Update 06 Dec 2011 - we have 24 voting members of Goblins thus far.
Update 08 Dec 2011 - we have 41 voting members of Goblins thus far.
Update 09 Dec 2011 - we have 46 voting members of Goblins thus far.
Update 10 Dec 2011 - we have 48 voting members of Goblins thus far.
Closing update - 11 December 2011 - 48 voting members of Goblins.

That is a contradictory poll here.
If someone is NOT voting, there would be no options for "NO". If there are votes for "no", they are lies. So only valid option is "yes". What is the point of poll with just one option?

I do feel that the options here should be:
Yes.
No. Oh, apparently yes.

I protest! I voted No, but only because there was no option which said "Huh? What's a poll?"

Methinks perhaps that was the joke, yes?

no.

A negative response is still a positive.
Logic twists are supurb ;)

35 people have proven that they participate in polls by choosing either option (yes==yes and no==yes; the logic is faultless), so that leaves those of us who do not participate in polls unaccountable! The third option (not to participate) is the only true option for those who do not!

Ooh, there should have been another option: "Yes, but not this one". I would have liked to see the numbers on that. :D

Feel free to create a new poll where your choice can be welcomed <french accent> like the churlish scardey-cat type personsages who wear hobnail boots that you really are ... </french accent>

... and there are 48 people who could be bothered to vote on an utterly uninteresting and pointless poll question.

I think this is the baseline voting level
Any greater results, it's a passion raising poll which attracts Goblins fans.
Any less, it's an offensive poll which repels Goblins fans.

Let the slightly more fascinating polling begin!
