I can't believe a dictionary might actually make it to the next round.

This board should have an option for non-anonymous polls, so we can mock people for how they voted.

Who said voting is anonymous right now? I just reserve the right to mock people for their voting to mods and admins only *nudge*

Let's see, we have Hamlet (not too bad) against a comic book, two lists of words, and the self-described best work of a Nobel laureate in Literature.

Let's see... 3 votes? I'm guessing that means exactly 3 people who've run across this poll have read it. You people suck.

(IS: I have nothing against Watchmen - I'm quite sure I would love it - but Master of Go is altogether unique. Everyone should be forced to read it.)

You don't know? Why did I waste all that donation money on the orientation kits for mods, then? Confused
