I guess Everquest must be last century. Did I blow that one.
Wait, WHAT? I’m in 22nd place? Living with programmers my entire life has finally paid off!
Damn, still not into the top half, but close this time.
I shall keep trying (you do know I’m supposed to be working . . .).
Me too! 
I’m not last! I’m not last! 
Thanks again, Dolores and Scarlett67 for another fun feud.
Wow- I thought I had this one in the top ten!
Oh well…
Next feud?
You either have very easy-going bosses or they’re a bit slow!
Or you work from home and have no discipline.
(I’m in the 2nd category).
Thanks again for putting in the time on this.
Yay! My best finish ever.
Okay, this is just wrong. How can Jobs get 13 times as many votes as Wozniak? Not to mention that Jobs, Dell, Cray, and Gates (and arguably Woz and Sinclair) aren’t even in the same pioneering class as Turing, Babbage, Lovelace, Boole, and Hopper.
And that’s the beauty of this game! It’s bizarre, ain’t it?
Nah - it’s a “real” job in a cubefarm. I’ve just been here a long time, and I get my work done. Working the spreadsheet kinda looks like work, anyway!
Whoohoo! New feud tonight? Hoping it’s something I can take part in this time.
Number five. WOOHOO!!! I really expected to be bottom feeding on this one.
I did pretty well. If only I had said CTRL instead of ~, then I’d be in the top ten!
