OMB you guys I can't contain all my vibes rn I just got my food stamps in the mail and they screwed up and sent me three months' worth instead of 1! #?radiatingpositivity. Bought all my nephews chips with the extra $$$ and sold the rest to a nice younger homeless couple to feed their sick dog some #?kraftcheese slices and get a nickelbag of nuggy mids. With that cash I got a couple pick threes and a #?fatstack of sweet cherry scratch-offs. None of my picks hit but the vibes are only phatter now that I hooked those residence-challenged up. #radiatingpositivity #?hadtoshare #?roosted #?stayrooedupfromthebootup !!!!!!!!!!!!

Just for the record, my comment was strictly observation, not a mod callout or opinion on any of the vagaries of civic duty, statistical polling, the law, the education system, naming use and copyrights, or humor and irony. Which actually, under different agendas, could have made for interesting forum discussion topics.
Since it's my field and the world's slowest day at work I just wanted to share some quick fun facts about the poll. Let's assume nobody voted twice (I think the two accounts bit has been discussed once or twice here), and that nobody's voted affected anyone else's. As it stands at the time of me starting to do the work the vote stands at 70-17 in favour of the Capp Dogg's reinstatement.
That's 70/87 or roughly 80% to 20%. A 99% credible interval (basically a confidence interval but roided up computation) is bounded at [69.5%, 91.4%]. This means any reasonable test, say 50% to find a majority, would show statistically significant evidence to support the hypothesis that Inforoo wants the Capp Dog back. Reject the null all that, you don't want to see that part.
Here's that fact visualized in a probability distribution. The implied distribution is in black and this absurd 50% of people might still not want the Capp Dog back assumption is in red. Doesn't look like it fits.
More numbers! If it were a 50/50 split on opinion about Capp Dog, the odds of us seeing a 70-17 vote (or more dramatic in the "yea" column) is 9.78E-08. That's 0.000000098%, or roughly 1 in 10.2 million. It's close to the odds you'll get Ebola in the next year (assuming you live in the US of A) at 1 in 13.3 million, and those of North Korea winning the next World Cup.
Here's that fact visualized in a probability distribution. The assumed distribution is in black and our place on that is red. Doesn't look like it fits.
As for this idea that we'd need 21,000 people to vote to make it valid,or 10,500 yeas, I think that's a bit silly. People aren't contesting election results because they don't have 100% turnout. In every US presidential election (I know electoral college, let's pretend it's a popular vote) since 1828 the result has been decided by a margin slimmer than the remainder of the voter turnout. So if you want to be pedantic about this, then there's no real true democratically elected president in the US in 200 years.
I voted yes. Capp Dogg adds value to the forum which is more than can be said of most of 20,999 other members. Will do a survey analysis on that if you want.
"Hey Will, I know you're the most bankable movie star on the planet, you've sold over 20 million albums in the last two decades, and this is your first show in more than 10 years. So what we're going to do is put you in the Other Tent opposite the Superjam, Bassnectar and DFA1979. Oh, but you have to be off stage by 1:30 for Big Grizmatik."
And the radio silence from RedFrog continues. Serious question: does anyone work over there, anyone at all? Like at their staff meeting this morning, did maybe even just one person suggest, "Hey, guys, so maybe today we should give a date or an apology or an explanation or something...." And then everyone else gave the thumbs down, exited the staff meeting, and resumed the ping pong championship game.
I've been following this thread like a stripper follows dollar bills for two weeks now. I just wanted to express my extreme gratitude for saving my sanity on a daily basis. You people are all fantastic. I laughed so hard this morning and imagined a RedFrog staff meeting comprised of a ping pong tournament. I'm sure this whole issue has been that they promised themselves they wouldn't release the lineup until they had a office ping pong champion. I think thats the obvious explanation.
Kind of wish they'd snag Will Butler (lead singer of Arcade Fire). He just announced more tour dates and they're almost all places with no more than a couple thousand people, but I'm thinking the scheudle is too far along for that. To see him recreate the dancing in this video alone would be a source of infinite amusement.
The early part of the 2010s decade saw sweeping reform in the LGBT movement. Marriage equality went from only being allowed in a few states to being allowed in the majority of states by 2014. However; it was in early 2015 when Tranter said "Gaytriots" that the real social progress took place. Homophobia was eliminated through the land. People saw that the best way to eliminate hate in the world through the satire of a 16 year old. There was great rejoicing. Tranter was voted to state senate, the first child of incest to ever hold a public office.
