I know some ppl are hurting cos they were not nominated. Just read the posts and you'll see that almost all the negatives have been by ppl who have not gotten a vote.

Lot of sore egos out there. Get a cure.

Well, if my thread is stupid there sure are a lot of stupids at Apolyton cos the thread sunk in a short time. Why don't you just close your eyes and pretend it's a stupidity contest. BTW I have taken an IQ-test and I'm above avarage. How about you?

Seems that many Americans (and Canadians?) don't like it for some reason while other ppl from for ex. Europe (where ppl are a little more read-up and up to par than Americans) like it.

Americans seem to prefer "name that song uh-oh" and other silly weird stuff.. The A-team and cartoons and what not. I guess this is their intellectual stimulus.

Dr Strangelove was on a paper list I had. Anyways as I wrote before I would spend months just writing down all the names. Do you know how many members Apolyton has? Thousands. And the polls in here don't allow for more than 16.

Did you not see the other category??

I'm sorry, but that post I quoted is perhaps the most ignorant passage I've ever read here on Apolyton. At least with EvC, I think he's joking. You, I fear, were serious.

It seems that you are just sore that people don't like your poll. A poll on who is the smartest on this site is foolishness, and any one could have told you that.

No, Lars, the problem is you don't know most of the people on the site. There's glaring omissions from your list, and there's no real criteria established other than general intelligence. And even then, I have to wonder how you rated some of the people based on intelligence. Some people on your list there are certainly very knowledgeable, but I wouldn't label them as being in the upper echelon of intelligent Apolytoner's.

Are you trying to measure knowledge, crystallized intelligence, or fluid intelligence?
Further, some people are intelligent analytically, some are intelligent creatively, and some practically. Do you distinguish between those? How about savants?

This is a glorified popularity contest, or at the very best a test to see how "well-read" posters are.

Isn't it amazing how everyone takes the IQ test and is above average?
Yes, I've taken an IQ-test (WAIS-III).
And no, I'm not going to tell you what I got, because people always (or most of the time) bullshit what their results were anyway, if they took them at all. I also disagree with how the modern Wechsler tests are run anyway.

Because as much as you go on and on about intellgence and knowing "facts", you seem to be lacking in understanding irony. I've tried before to explain such things to others who have lacked this sense many times, but have come to realize that their mentality is not suited for it, or are so stubborn, that they can't come to change their mind about an embarassing mistake they previously made.

So? There are many Americans in here and naturally a great portion of them will be selected to give them a fair representation.

Omissions? How many would fit into 'Other'?
