Not from OT discussion, from OT thread titles. Looking for inspiration, I just picked them. I haven't read the discussions on them. However I don't think they'll answer the same, that's certainly not what's happening. I do see your point, but I thought questions on current 'Poly topics means that they're accessable to everyone, as opposed to geocentric or personal things of mine that wouldn't be accessable to everyone.

You could say that many of the early questions, revolving around poly members (member most likely to... etc.) are also biased to those that have been here longer, or those that browse certain forums. It is impossible to be completely unbiased, so I try to make sure all the questions can be answered by everyone at poly, as much as possible.

I can also assure you that I haven't read many of the threads in questions, yet I wouldn't feel disadvantaged. People are not answering in blocks who have read the certain threads, or at least I can't see any pattern at all in the answers.

Also, I hadn't thought of posting it here when I made the questions

The same sort of threads keep reappearing in the OT anyway, so you can't say that everyone agrees with the topics all the time.

No idea, a lot of my posts don't register for bumping threads Oh well. Haven't got a reply from Snowfire about hosting the next one yet, so I'm presuming if BC wants to host it, it'd be ok?
