After going to the Dinkermeet and meeting some awesome Dinkers... Here's some Pollocracy to soothe your mind. (Or you could look up the pictures and then return here to soothe your mind.)

For those of you who don't yet know what Pollocracy is: It is me, metatarasal, posting some of the things people commented on the poll. If you didn't know already, now you know: Anything posted in the 'any comments?' box below each poll is fair game for Pollocracy.

See the comments to read the entire article.

Since it has been half a year since the last pollocracy was posted we have slightly more polls than on average. It is also the reason why the first poll goes back all the way to christmas...

Anyway, here are a selection of the best comments from polls #175-#187:

Poll 175: Most important Christmas attribute?

3) Metatarasal's christmas polls!!
2) Sleeping pills: You don't want the pillbugs to interrupt you while celebrateing
1) Fat man with a beard... that's right, I am the most important Christmas attribute.

Poll 176: Happy new year?

3) Wait... it's a new year? :/
2) I checked my lottery ticket before answering this poll. It didn't affect my answer, unfortunately
1) There's been a real problem with the polls recently. Every one of them lacks the option "banana" and I for one find that inexcusable and will not be subscribing to your newsletter forthwith,

Poll 177: I spend my Dink time:

3) Criticizing others work and never doing anything myself.
2) Peeling banana the right way? You mean.. there's more than one way? I must know!! TELL MEEEEE!!
1) The word 'duck' has gained it's way into my everday vocabulary as a curse word...

Poll 178: The most annoying limitation in Dink is the maximum amount of:

3) Global variables! I don't know what the max amount is, but each time something doesn't work without reason debug shows it doesn't know the global value! Arrrgghhh!
2) bananas and Talporn
1) It's annoying that you can only get maximum of zero naked chicks in Dink. Unless you play SimonK's D-Mods! SIMONK YOU RULE!!

Poll 179: Favorite fruit?

3) I feel that the banana lobby is underrepresented in this poll.
2) Woah! Several options!!
1) I had to think really hard for this poll but ultimately I think banana is the right answer

Poll 180: Best Dinknetwork feature?

3) The broken ratings system.
2) It's partnership with Talporn.
1) I always come to this site for the news, but usually I only concern myself with the poll!

Poll 181: Blood or gore?

3) HIPPIES!! WOO YEAH!! FREE LOVE FOR ALL, AND ALL THAT JAZZ!!
2) Flowers... strewn on the mutilated, disembowelled hippie corpses!
1) Blood and gore are out of style, you clearly make it so when enemies are slashed they drop chocolate sauce and licorice. That way cannibalism is okay.

Poll 182: Favourite thread?

2) Pizza thread.
1) And especially if those nyon Threads keep gloves y=tgether on the hands of deadly babes.(in that I can't even avert my eyes of them babes)

Poll 183: Which of these sites would you like to come back most?

3) We need nothing different than Dink Network >
2) Dink Squad, so I can stalk people >
1) Dink Squad without a doubt. There's nothing more enjoyable than perving on pictures of fellow dinkers.

Poll 184: Best prize for the Carnage contest?

3) Undies signed by Dink Smallwood himself.
2) hey would conceal my slayer while it shapeshifted! Get it?! Because the slayer...and my...oh nevermind.
1) Diamond encrusted undies of manly powers.

Poll 185: Best title for a carnage DMOD?

1) "Your mom's coming our way!"

Poll 186: Sleep is:

3) Sleeping is awesome.
2) Sucks valuable time off my forum trolling - I mean come on - who wants to waste time on sleep?
1) If only they could develop caffine pills that didn't leave you halusinating after a few days...

Poll 187: Are you coming to the Dinkermeet?

3) Those Dinkers have MURDER in their eyes, and bananas in their hands.
2) Dinker meat? Sounds tasty...
1) Where's the "Moo, I don't want to"?

Hope you guys enjoyed this. I plan to get Pollocracy ten done a bit more quickly after this.

And remember, everything posted in the 'Any Comments?' box is fair game for Pollocracy.

I'm simply a distraction. 
I looked at the dink meet pictures and I views every empty chair as a place for me were I could drink healthy things like vodka. Maybe when the next dink meet comes up my job would have given me everything I needed to ship something over there with me in it of course.

well Scratcher for me it is due to only 3 of all that come will be chosen to be displayed so is a matter of being proud your's was chosen.

so "yay one or more of mine were chosen" and not "i'm so much better because mine were chosen"

I can see you point though but aren't you proud if one of yours are chosen? well some like sharing theirs was included and like sharing it .

Because people enjoy it and because that's one of the few points of Pollocracy?

merder: I guess there is that, and it's not so bad when it doesn't come off as dickery. Personally I have zero interest in knowing who said what and would rather just concentrate on the comments themselves. It's like some deeper meaning was missed somewhere along the way, when pointing out a funny comment is readily perceived as coup d'equote instead.

Skull: To you, everything is a pissing contest.

It's a tradition, not a pissing contest!

EDIT: And do you really think people wanna read your pathetic attempts at insulting me, rather than what are peoples' comments, on a Pollocracy thread?

Yeah, it's about time for #10. The main reason it isn't here yet is that I haven't actually done that many polls recently. I aim for a minimum of 8 polls for a pollocracy, so since there have been only 9 polls since the last pollocracy I'm not really that far overdue.

Hey what's up with the ones that have less than three answers chosen?
Does that mean there where only one (or two) comments or that it was only one (or two) worth of featuring?
