It was done for fun, and I thought you would win

Hey but I thought I would be a close second

But alas GA wins hands down...

Hey I guess your #4 and I am #3 so its not far off what I expected...

You really don't understand that it isn't usually a big ego that leads people to write/talk/create a lot, do you?

It very well can be.. If someone writes 3000-5000 posts. Someone might conclude that those people think that everyone wants to hear their opinion. Now is this some sort of rule, not by any means. My remark about the post count was simply a little friendly jab

Actually it's usually just the opposite.

I suggest laying off armchair analysis until you've finished the course.

poke poke.

There are no close seconds in this sort of thing. You can only vote for the perceived biggest ego, so even if the perceived second-biggest ego is close, they still don't get many votes. If the difference is statistically significant, it gets hugely amplified.

What I was more expecting was like 55% for Texrat and 45% for PB

which would be a close second, with close to 1/2 the community think I have a big ego.

I understand what your saying, but I did not forsee the 64% GA with no close seconds...
