See the comments to read the rest.
As you might have noticed I took over the polls about half a year ago. So hereby I also take over the position of posting the best comments from them.
How does this work?
Well, in a democratic country it is the voters who decide. Now the dinknetwork has never been a democracy, but sometimes voters still have an opinion. If this opinion is related to the poll we like to hear it, just use the little box labeled 'Any Comments?'next to the poll. If your comment is witty, useful or just plain weird I might post it here for others to enjoy. You have been warned. I rank these comments according to fully objective criteria, so resistance is futile.
Okay, so this first installment will cover the best comments for the last 24 polls. So, if you have been missing the comments: Enjoy!
Note that any [text between square brackets] is mine, {text within the curly brackets} is the option the commenter voted for (if I think it's relevant).
Poll 91: When is the last time you played Dink (or a D-Mod) for fun?
5) this game rocks better than link

2) I Took the question as a challenge
1) I will find Charlie, I swear!

1) Boxers. But not if they have spongebob squarepants on them. That's just...wrong.
Poll 96 was never held.
Poll 97: Ennui?
3) OMG, Dink is still alive!
2) So what's a Ennui??
1) Facts are stubborn things; and whatever may be our wishes, our inclinations, or the dictates of our passion, they cannot alter the state of facts [Your point being?]

2) {Search for the random household item} loo brush? [Just use your hands, works perfectly, believe me.]

Poll 110: Why has only one new DMOD been released this year?
3) there's 2 [Yeah, people started releasing DMODs the moment I posted this poll. It's a conspiracy]
2) I'd chalk it to lack of new members in general. Seeing how small the community has always been, though, I'm surprised there ever was a time when several dmods were released every month. [I'm surprised such an elaborate response even fits inside that box...]

Poll 114: You find a dragon carcass, what do you do?
3) Get it? In the game there was a Dead Dragon Carcass cult, and if it's a dead dragon, and a carcass, it's a dead dragon carcass. hehe. [I am totally in awe of your logic.]
2) {Confirm it is a dead dragon carcass} And if so, ride said dead dragon carcass like a mechanical bull.
1) Dead Dragon Carcass, I love you !
I'll try posting the comments slightly more frequently from now on. So, start commenting!
