I’m seeing 15 off-topic to 3 lounge right now. How is that possible? In http://www.moviecodec.com/topics/34608p1.html it was like 12 pro-lounge to 0 pro-off-topic to 3 “what"s and 1 bka-hangout.
Talk about an upset

Yeah, I’m with Maggot. I’m more in favor of a member’s only section being called the lounge and keeping Off-Topic the same.

You found the poll’s weak point, and did massive damage.
Good job.

Would the voting have been different had I posted this in feedback?
I understand polls can be used for humor too (Bjarne seems to have set the trend with Canada), but I was hoping to get a genuine sense of how the people who make up the bulk of the site felt about the naming of their category.

Off-Topic is better, it explains the point of the forum.

I was going to refer Bjarne to this thread for the final concensus, but given how biased the voting turned out, I’m doubtful of its validity.
Maybe we should just have a normal thread, and count only well-known members' (text) votes? (with regulars reporting aliases/duplicates)
