The poll provides support for the notion that most people want Poly out. I does this just because the poll went the way it did. It could have gone the other way, but it didn't, so the proposition's more credible than before the poll was put up.The pro-Dungeon majority is overwhelming (50%). An overwhelming number make the call and only c. 5% more people like Poly than (presumably) can't make the choice. People say ENWorld is an unrepresentative sample, I'm sure that's so - but for the result to be an accident is has to be massively unrepresentative, and I don't think that's credible. Yes it's not perfect, but I'm presuming other changes in the Mag were made without exhaustive prior polling and we don't need a series of double-blind trials done before any decision gets made.That said I don't think both sides throwing (metaphorial) rocks at the other is the solution: the magazine needs to be made much more cohesive and useful. But perhaps that's for another thread...nikolai.</blockquote>
