This week’s question
Alright, so this coming Friday I'm supposed to be going to the Star Trek pre-release of the Magic the Gathering set at my local card shop. I've been to the shop to see what it was all about, but honestly have no idea what to expect. I presume it's going to be full of idiots like me, but I have no idea what age they will be. Pre-release night is supposed to be super casual, which is good as I really don't know what I'm doing. I'm kind of worried I'm going to annoy folks as I'm going to be asking what's going on most of the time, but given it's a new set, I'm told others will be doing the same. Also, given it's Star Trek, there's a high likelihood that there will be others there like me that are going because it's Star Trek and not Magic. Will I go to the Star Trek MTG pre-release and will I enjoy it?

How the Votes Have Been Cast
Discussion on Current Vote:
You've found the EastBayRag vote page. Here, you get the opportunity to let us know what you think. Each week, we will have votes on important issues. Well, probably not important issues, more like trivial things that come to mind on a Sunday morning after a belly full of beer from a Saturday night.
This week's current vote is shown above. After the votes are in, EBR will provide in depth analysis of the results so you can find out if you are running with the crowd or if you're out there on your own. You never know, you may even learn something, but that's highly unlikely. Analysis of last week's vote is shown below. If you want to see historic votes, checkout the vote archives.
Oh! And the cool thing before I forget, the graphs update as you vote ...... Wow! And what's more, the colors are allocated randomly, so each time you refresh the page, you will see different colors on the graphs. (F5 is normally the shortcut key to refresh, but may depend on your browser.) Go on .... try it.

Analysis:
Well, nobody got it right - the answer was 37 and nobody picked the 31-40 range. I went higher as I had 55 I think the first year here, but it was down last year, maybe in the twenties. Anyway, I did the doorbell montage if you want to take a look and count. 18 kids came in the first 10 minutes with their being a large group of 10 at one point. It slowed down after though. The good news is that Zaphod kind of ignored it. He was on my dining chair. He did look up the first couple of times the doorbell went, but he soon started to ignore it. Didn't even make the effort to come to the door and certainly didn't try to escape which is what I was worried about.
