Choose wisely.........................

You have plenty of time to contemplate your decision before you vote, it is a very simple poll.

You can't change your vote after you've dropped your ballot in the election box so I see no reason anyone should be allowed to change their vote here.

Besides, just be happy you live in sunny Florida.

Well, I clicked "Bob" and then "Vote", and like it does a couple of tiems, I just wind up back here on same page (reloaded tho) with no view of the votes. So I vote Bob again and it sez I've already voted, go back.

Is this a problem? Have I voted?

Bob is the way to go! Remember how decisive we were in the last few(?) threads about this topic? We all said, "BOB!" We need to recognize that the PtW DG is a very unique place deserving a unique name! God Bless Apolyton, but name the planet BOB! For only Bob is original, Apolyton is just a straight ripoff. Bob will prevent confusions of the masses, and everything! VOTE BOB! VOTE BOB! VOTE FOR BOB, THE PROTECTOR OF YOUR LIBERTIES! VOTE FOR BOB, THE ALMIGHTY!

BOB! BOB! BOB!
[/campaigning]
[campaigning]

Please, people, vote Bob! Apolyton needs to lend itself to induviduality, and Bob is the ultimate expression of individuality!

Well it may be true that naming the planet Abstain is a little silly (but I still prefer it to the other choices), but I urge you, if you are yet to vote, PLEASE don't make us live on a planet called "Bob". if you vote and don't want Abstain, go for Apolyton.

(sigh)

Thank you.

I'm all for Abstain.

We've already got Apolyton, Apolytonia, and variations upon such. And, to be honest, I really don't buy the whole 'bob' thing. So -- let's go with "Abstain". What could be more creative, and it'd be a great inside joke for the end of the game (if it ever ends...)

52 voters, people are more concerned with this than the map preferences.

I think a lot of people couldn't understand the map preferences poll. Heck, most of us still don't understand it or what won.

Tired of ads?

No one answered my question (sorry for being such a whiner, but this is an VERY important poll! Think! Every single document referencing the ground we stand on will be affected by it!):

quote:
Well, I clicked "Bob" and then "Vote", and like it does a couple of tiems, I just wind up back here on same page (reloaded tho) with no view of the votes. So I vote Bob again and it sez I've already voted, go back.

Is this a problem? Have I voted?


And, ah, yes, once one nation conquers the world (if that happens) then can it rename the planet on its own? And purge all traces of calling it anything else ?

And IMO Bob will be a better inside joke than "Abstain."

What about just referring the planet to simply crazy off the wall concept like "world" and "planet"?
