Too Much Exposition |

I'm finding the community reaction to this interesting enough that I'm willing to vote for Herbie's completion even if I found YourPinup's character repulsive (and I'm about as much of a sucker for alt-sexiness as anyone).
I don't actually think SF0 suffers much in this regard, though: I've gotten four more votes on my player photograph in the six days since I changed it to a picture of a physical disfigurement than in the first seven+ weeks when it was mildly flattering. That's the opposite reaction I'd expect from most communities, and definitely a commendable one.
Yeah, I think it says something that I still love that building despite working in its weirdly-shaped offices for five years. Glad you could join us, Ricky. A shame your wife couldn't make it!
Susy: Thanks! I actually wondered if that measure was too silly and nearly took it out at the last minute, then I thought: who am I kidding? I'm pretty silly.
DA1: Oooh, point taken (and, indeed, a perfect comment). Thanks for eventually getting around to it.
BU: In addition to your ecconomist comparison (which is certainly valid), I'd also hasten to add that, it is neither expected nor necessarily in a population's best interest for an elected official to behave exactly how he would urge his citizens to do. Though in this case the score cited in this report simply applies to the tasks you voted for, not the ones you yourself participated in--but as DA points out below, you may also just be impoverished w/r/t great collaborations for you to vote on.
DA2: A very interesting and credible theory. It would take me a whole lot of brute force calculation to figure out exactly how many of the ~6540 praxis to date have been collaborative, but if the trends from the first 5 pages of praxes hold true, it's probably only 6-10% of them. So if we presume that there have been about 400 collaborative completions and BU voted for 257 of them, that is indeed a pretty impressive percentage.
The rest of you: thank you for honoring my extremely nerdy completion with your votes. I promise that the next and subsequent ones will be more active.
@ ⓜoustache: I am sympathetic. I was (still am) craving migas the entire time I was working on this praxis. And, yes, Spidere is an excellent food model.
