Or do you mean explicitly non-human personas?

I can see that Yellow is putting a lot of thought into this. It makes me happy.

I eagerly looked forward to seeing the bar graph change after I voted for "bar graphs."

So, dear bis, what would you like in place of bar graphs? Pie charts? Spreadsheets? No polls at all?

Not really. More like a second primary alias, with how much he did with each.

I voted against fake writers, though I'm fine with the fake/team writers provided they have acceptable grammar. (that's right, pre-brainwashed CATS.)
Now, having multiple aliases is fine. But I think one of the more pathetic things I've seen on the 100 hour board was a few years ago when a writer (who's identity I happened to know) went on a tirade against another alias that was, in fact, himself. To be fair, everyone was annoyed at the alias and my friend probably wanted to distance himself from it, but since I knew they were both one person, it came off pretty sad.

I wanted to vote twice, really. It was a toss-up between writer "teams" and Hobbes.

Wait, shoot, did that say LAMEST? Dang it.

Hobbes, I love you.

Oh, so that's what you meant, bismark. Of course, I should have remembered that other thing. Dang. Now I really don't have anything to vote for.

Wait, wait, who are you? And who was this? Are we talking Drama Queen here?

Uffish, I'm a big fan of yours though I don't think you know me. Apparently you were roommates with a friend of mine, though (Amy M), so that's cool. I think the only current board writer I've met was Katya, and that was through Melyngoch, and I don't think either of them would remember me these days anyways. Petra was a good friend, though, as was Bertie Wooster. It's a shame that now that I have time to look into applying to be a writer, I'm neither a student nor in Provo.
Anywho... It wasn't drama queen. I don't want to say who it was too specifically in case he is still around, but it had to do with a curly haired RM who like to speak in pirate talk. Or was it irish talk? It was something like that. Probably around 2005.

Ah, right. Him. He's after Drama Queen.

I didn't know Bertie too well, (sad, because Wodehouse is my favorite author ever,) but I exchange a couple words with Petra every now and again, which is fun. And yeah, Amy was one of my roommates. Sweet.

So, thanks for being a fan. And, uh, for knowing a lot of the people I know?
