The Government called, they want their polls back.

He's single-handedly pumping up the federal deficit.

Now I don't have a clue on MLB but have reason to believe that he rules on baseball. However I am too cheap (and probably wouldn't bet big enough to justify) to spring for the paid membership so I was hoping to get the picks some other way...
Secondly I was wondering what the response would be and of course how accurate and valuable that response would be in picking the games today.
At the end of play I'll make a post with the results of the polls collated and we can see how the group did.
That's true man, but come on, you easily could have combined those game polls into one post, instead of spamming all of them just to increase your vBExperience, or as I call it, your e-penis.
Yeah, I think when he made that contest his idea was to generate activity in the forums. Posting one topic for every single poll doesn't really fit that bill haha
Actually I must protest a bit - the idea is a valid one; to use the polling tool to generate a 'group prediction' for each game so it is a valid notion...more than mere 'shilling' for vBExperience points!!!
Happily, it appears that it is possible to glean multiple responses if the options are set correctly so the same sort of thing can be done more economically (i.e. with fewer threads).
I like the idea though, so I'm going to go ahead and do it again, but hopefully it will be a bit more elegant.
