Vote #691

Question:

One more week until the holidays and then Christmas will be upon us. Are you looking forward to Christmas in this Covid world?

Results:

No was the clear winner with 67% of the votes from the following selection:

  • Yes (33%)
  • No (67%)

Analysis:

Oooh, most people said no. I answered yes as I'm still looking forward to a break from work. Admittedly it won't be the same as a trip back home. There's something about getting off a plane that really marks the start of a break and helps with that separation from work. Still, there won't be as many emails over the holidays.

Vote #692

Question:

Congrats to Lewis Hamilton for winning sports personality of the year. He's won everything else and thoroughly deserves it. But, is there a sinister element to this? We know that Lewis is faster than everyone else. We also know that he had Covid 19. And now the new variant travels faster than everyone else. Did Lewis Hamilton teach the Corona Virus to drive his Mercedes?

Results:

Yes was the clear winner with 60% of the votes from the following selection:

  • Yes (60%)
  • No (40%)

Analysis:

It does seem that one of the new strains is UK centric, so it is highly possible that Lewis taught it to move quickly.

Vote #693

Question:

Did you realize it was Monday already?

Results:

Yes and No tied with 50% of the votes each from the following:

  • Yes (50%)
  • No (50%)

Analysis:

I don't actually know what happened to this vote question. I didn't forget it, I did set it. Owen pinged me to say it wasn't set because he hadn't got the email, so something must have happened after I set it to stop the email from going out. I couldn't exactly resend the question as it wouldn't have made sense, so I just left it. Perhaps the answer is that even though I knew it was Monday, my computer did not. Anyway, hopefully this one goes out without a hitch and normal service will be resumed. Happy New Year to everyone by the way - I hope you all had a good time and stayed safe which seems to be the saying these days.

Results:

Yes was the clear winner with 67% of the votes from the following selection:

  • Yes (67%)
  • No (33%)

Excellent, that majority of folks think 2021 will be exciting. I have to be honest, I do too. It's off to a pretty interesting start with the shenanigans in the US. Who knows what else is in store for us?

Vote #695

Question:

An educational question, how dare he I hear you say. At the end of the last vote analysis I ended with a rhetorical question. Put a question mark at the end of it, deleted it for a period, then changed the period back to a question mark. I wasn't really sure how to punctuate it. How should a rhetorical question be punctuated?

Results:

Question mark was the clear winner with 100% of the votes from the following selection:

  • Question mark (100%)
  • Period (0%)
  • Exclamation mark (0%)
  • Hash (0%)
  • Ampersand (0%)
  • Eggplant emoji (0%)
  • Poo emoji (0%)

Analysis:

Doesn't look like anyone voted, so I'm assuming you don't know. It's apparently up to the writer how they want to punctuate a rhetorical question. Normally it is done with either a period, question mark or exclamation mark.

  • Yes (60%)
  • No (40%)

Analysis:

It's probably the weather that causes it.

Vote #697

Question:

The first full week of a new president. Do you think we'll have as many tweets with the new president as the last one?

Results:

No was the clear winner with 80% of the votes from the following selection:

  • Yes (20%)
  • No (80%)

Analysis:

Yeah, I somehow doubt that we're going to see as many tweets as we did before. It's like we've got a bland blancmange in the White House after the multi colored dipstick. I'm sure the news organizations are starting to panic about what to do now. It's like they'll have to go out and do their job and fine things that are news worthy as opposed to it being presented to them and they just give their opinions on it.

Vote #698

Question:

Tuesday will start the final week of the Season of the Hunt in Destiny 2 before we get a whole load of new content. Will I be lucky enough to get Eyes of Tomorrow before the end of the season?

Results:

Yes was the clear winner with 67% of the votes from the following selection:

  • Yes (67%)
  • No (33%)

Analysis:

Nope, sadly I was not able to get it. You only have a max of three attempts each week to see if you're lucky enough and none of my attempts were successful. I was, however, extremely pleased with everything else I got done this season. Quite happy with a few of the acheivements.

Vote #699

Question:

Alright, so next week is the start of the new season in Destiny 2, Season of the Chosen. Will Season of the Chosen be exciting?

Results:

Yes was the clear winner with 60% of the votes from the following selection:

  • Yes (60%)
  • No (40%)

Analysis:

Fairly split result with the majority of folks opting for yes, Season of the Chosen will be exciting. It's a little early to actually say as we're in the honeymoon period of new content, so anything's exciting right now. We'll have to see if it lasts the entire season or whether interest starts to wane.
