[QUOTE="CleverNickName, post: 4240392, member: 50987"] I wouldn't say that it was intended to be a big joke or anything, but I did want it to be fun. As silly as some of the options sound, they are extrapolations of posts that I have read on these boards at one time or another: "Ask hong" = ask somone on ENWorld for advice. "Demand an apology" = a callback to all those posts about 4E "killing" D&D "Call my attorney" = prepare for legal turmoil (popular during the OGL/SRD debates) "Buy every splatbook" = all those posts about PHB2, PHB3, PHB4... and so on. So the poll really is intended to be serious, but I dialed back some of the more controversial responses to keep the mood light and let everyone have fun with it. I think it worked: while there are both serious and farsical options to vote for, people have voted mostly for the serious ones. It's a pretty good snapshot of how we gamers plan to resolve conflicts in an as-yet-unseen game system. "Houseruling" seems to be the reigning champ (51%), with "Nothing/I can cope" in second place (26%). And hong, I think you need to start an "ask hong" thread or advice column here. [/QUOTE]
