The DaVinci Poll: What %%%???

Ok, there's been much discussion about how the results of a poll are binding, but what percentage vote is required for the concept to become law?

I can help. Let an Italian, using the sort of approach that made Italy great, help decide this once and for all.

Where is the obvious choice of 51% or >50%? Total failure of a poll. Please request lockdown/deletion and start over again. I repeat, this is just a pathetic, horrible failure on so many levels. It cannot be overstated how bad these options are. It's like you weren't even trying to use logic when you came up with these choices. Are you still drunk from St. Patrick's Day?
PS
My god, this is the worst poll I've ever even heard of, and not just GR, but the entire internet. Check that, before the internet as well.

Don't sugarcoat this thing HB. The poll is tripe...dawg.

We also need to establish a predetermined amount of time that a poll should be open. I'll start a poll.

I guarantee this poll was designed to settle this issue absolutely as effectively as any other means. The Roman Empire survived for eons because of this type of situational brilliance. Pull your slide rule and your bf's c.ock out of your anal ass and just pick 55%.

If the poll was strictly for picking which Miami school you went to, then yes, there would only be two options, but they'd be even more confusing.

I've got that taken care of. When the results seem good, I'll close the poll.

My mistake, let me reiterate. AHEM! These % could have been picked randomly by a monkey with Down's Syndrome and they would have made more sense. And for clarification's sake, monkeys with Down's are horribly stupid. Yet, even for their abject stupidity, they would have been able to create poll options better suited to answer the question.
My apologies for not expressing my disdain for these unthinkable poll options more clearly.

I can easily accept you're the expert on how monkey's think and just how stupid they are, with or without Down's syndrome. As something of an aside, people with Down's syndrome typically fall into the top 10% of intelligence in Cincinatti.

Now go iron your skirt, and unbunch your panties.

If those with tiny, defective brains don't kill the poll due to their inability to perceive effect, eventually the brilliance of the poll will become apparent. I certainly don't expect you to understand any of this.

Quit projecting your poll inadequacies on other people. I'm not the one who made 10 poll options and left out the only obvious choice.
And it's spelled "Cincinnati."

Noone cares how Cissynatti is spelled. What appears obvious to each individual person varies greatly with intelligence or absence thereof. I doubt your obviousness account actually has a positive balance.

I'm telling Sara Palin

Surprising to me but so far 50%, 55% and 75% are all tied. Hopefully some seperation will appear before I close the poll.

Since Horseballs has elected not to vote, the good news is the poll's unlikely to be decided by someone mistakenly picking the wrong option.

Well, no sign of HB, so I might as well log out. I wish there was a way I could get alerted whenever he makes a post, someone needs to point out his narcissisticishness and correct his pathetic innacuracies. Maybe if I find out where he lives.

Does anyone else find it confusing that the option 55% is winning with 50%? It takes an intelligent poll to be capable of something like that.

With a meager 4 votes in your poll I'm afraid that Horseballs is way ahead on points on my scorecard. Sorry Zo. :(

It's 5, but you came within one. Probaly closer than average on New Zealand. Ok, maybe I bunched three of the options. Besides, 5 votes will turn into 20 when the aliases show up.

speaking of which...you never addressed % of aliases allowed...don't worry it happens to the best of us.

Aliases, what aliases are you referring too?

Aliases in place for a minimum of 18 months prior to the poll are voters in good standing on GR.

I just want to say great thread, lorenzoinoc (whatever the f.uck that means). I had a hard time deciding between 66.7% and 66.6667%.

I like that you offered the voters such varied and precise percentages. You don't often see something so well thought out.

Wow, thanks Fred3. I don't know that I've ever heard you be complimentary before.

lorenzoinoc is my attempt to simplify my name so others feel at ease pronouncing it (some around here move their lips when they read). My real name, which I'm sure is obvious to you already, is Lore Nzoinoc. For some reason people seem to have a hard time pronouncing that. It in fact sounds just like Ferrari, only with a Z and an N in the beginning and no R-s. My great grandfather, Aldo Nzoinoc, was hung for insulting a baron who he thought had asked him his name. Tragically, the baron had not addressed him. Ever since, we Nzoinocs have displayed our name proudly.

There were 4 options noone had voted for, so I figured I'd just go with one of them. I don't remember which one I picked.

I think it was about being bound. I took some Medimucil last night and this morning I'm not bound anymore.....:cool:

Clearly a poll is needed to determine if any future polls should be allowed on GR. Furthermore, a second poll should be done to determine if the results of ANY of the prior polls should continue to be enforceable by international law. In addition, a third poll should be conducted to determine the validity of the two prior polls relating to the legitimacy or lack of it, regarding polls on GR.

Well, the poll is finally giving us clarity on the correct percentage. It's great after all the dialogue you guys have had about this that the whole thing is settled.

It feels really good.

Let's be diverted to another topic I have been curious about -- Is "Not a German" a username that:

1.) Discriminates against Germans?

2.) Discriminates against all Europeans (I know this is unlikely since Italy is part of Europe)?

3.) Was a name that was derived simply because of the topic of one thread in particular?

Other questions of interest:

1.) Out of all your aliases on this board, which is your favorite?

2.) Why "Not a German"? Why not, "Not a Homeo," or "Not a Hetero," or "Not a Woman," or "Not a Russian?"

3.) Have you been sodomized by a German and therefore the hatred of the username?

4.) Have you ever been to a Turkish prison or seen a grown man naked?

I don't know where NAG is but I may be able to help with some of the answers. Yes, he's been sodomized many times, even by inanimate objects. He's neither Italian nor german, he just hates Germans. But remember, noone hates germans as much as Germans do.

Btw, sorry about the weather there. Today in socal was one of the most beautiful days I've ever seen. Played golf and am having a BBQ at the beach with friends. So I just can't commiserate with you.

It's a fairly recent phenomenon. Getting attention at all cost, whether or not they humiliate themselves. It's as though Jerry Springer found these people wandering the desert and took care of them until YouTube became available.

It's the reality TV / Paris Hilton effect. It's better to be famous for being a retard than not be famous. In the case of Springer guests or even more so with reality TV "stars", I would imagine that being famous, but not rich, would be absolutely fukking, horrible.

But isn't that what college boosters are for?

So, even though I don't hold this poll in high regard because of its blatant lack of acceptable options, even if I did, it would appear we are at a stalemate in the Larry v. Alan poll. A majority believes a poll is binding after 60% or greater.

I almost accepted your apology, but then I realized it's really all about you. A narcisist can recognize when they should apologize, they just can't do it with any sincerity. Because it's all about them.

The poll, through it's curve-like precision, clearly establishes a minimum of 60%.

I forgot to vote. I just voted for 55%, which I believe makes that the most popular option. Whether it puts it at 55% or the previous threshold of 60%, I'm not sure. If my poll regarding poll times wasn't such a failure, this could have possibly been prevented.
How does this affect Larry v. AlanG? I'm confused.

The Larry v. Alan poll is at 57% in favor of Alan.
It's a numbers game at this point. 55% may be the most popular choice, but it hasn't garnered 55% of the vote. See what a terrible poll this was?

This demonstrates how this poll epitomizes democracy. All I've ever heard since I got to this country was: "One Vote Matters." Well, in this instance, Slice moved the standard a full 5%, to its current 55%. Since 57 is greater than 55, the Alan Larry poll results are clear.

Some are too busy pretending their own brilliance to even be aware of what someone else is saying.
