best good better preference polls opinion poll favorite favourite bestbot	<reply> Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots.	LjL Added on: 2006-07-21 01:18:13 Last edited by LjL Last modified: 2008-04-03 17:11:44 Requested 3316 times

nickfork-#ubuntu-offtopic	<deleted>a silly little game for offtopic channels ONLY. The way it works is you pick out a random nick from the /names list (works best if they're idle), have a bunch of people switch to something similar (scrambles, reverse, 1337speak), and see how long it takes for the real person to catch on.
