Except for mine where I was RPing you throwing various pillows at me to keep me from revealing what it is :)

Yes I found that quite amusing!

Why does it say there are 0 votes? I am certain I voted for something.

Hey guys this poll ends in 15 minutes!  I'm closing it early so that the results will be hidden and you will have to hear them from Toady's mouth in a teaser!  Tell your buddies to vote now!

Can we at least know the percentage of votes for the Mauling? 30%? 56%? 95%?

Bad move hiding the results unless they are revealed today...

It made following this thread in the end pointless and now I am a bit ticked.

It is the sort of thing you say in advance.

I think its safe to say that there were 398 or so total voters (Duke already said there are almost 400 anyway) and the number for the scamps thing was 71 or so and the other two were well past 140. So I think you can get a good idea of the percentage from that.

Yes I did see the answer, but ain't gonna be revealed over my !!!corpse!!!.

I agree with Neonivek in that its something you say in advance.

I wasn't trying to start a controversy, sorry, sorry!  Just trying to figure out how to make this thing exciting for the community while unveiling it in a fun way.  We will be posting the announcement tonight!

so, about 18%

But I can safely say that no, Scamps did not win, nor was he ever close to winning.  Poor Scamps.   :-\   The ratio for him was like 2:2:1.

Well don't worry about it too much. I was only ticked not angry. (Though I am sure that they are the same by definition... the difference is that I was ticked at the situation rather then angry at you)

My only concern now is the question period.

Note on teaser 4, intro music is a little loud to start, or doesn't fade fast enough. Also, its posted, and thus you can probably put the announcement back in this thread.

Oddly enough I kinda liked the music a bit more then the classical guitar... I know the guitar is supposed to be DF themed but it was always a bit too soothing for the discussion and clashed with what was supposed to be otherwise exciting :P

I got 2/3 correct! I actually lost to the last question.

ANNOUNCEMENT

Congrats, Neo!

... Also, here is the announcement for those who don't listen to the teasers:  World Gen has won, we will be doing a small segment on the Trades, and Scamps has decided to forgive Toady and has promised to be good for podcast #4.
