OT: poll - What happened to Xantus?
Remember Xantus, the sentient plant who was around a couple of weeks ago? He has disappeared under rather mysterious circumstances. What happened to him, and will he ever return?

Umm... Did you mean to let us select up to 8 choices? 'Cause I did...

Re: OT: poll - What happened to Xantus?
LOL! When I set up the poll, I remember intentionally setting it up so that unlimited selections can be made. (I sort of thought in the back of my mind that in some situations, more than one answer might apply.) I didn't realize that some people will choose ALL of the answers.  In hindsight, it wasn't such a good idea to allow this. Now it's hard to interpret the poll results. I suppose that we might be able to normalize the data by dividing the number for each answer by the total number of answers received. If you selected all eight answers, then your vote would be canceled out.  (Of course, this won't work if everybody voted for all the answers.)
Now there is no way to limit the number of choices, because you can't go back and edit polls. Oh well, I just learned what NOT to do in the next poll...

Kamog, live and learn!
One fun poll. This one.
The next, improved poll. Better and even funnier! I think you might have set it up that. You sly dog!

Re: OT: poll - What happened to Xantus?
So the majority declares Xantus a dead plant as a result from weather changes.
I am rather sure he evolved into an onion
