  • Poly's very own 'Six Degrees of Separation'

    The Atlanta meet got me thinking about this...

    Having met Victor in London a while back, it would mean that I am two degrees separated from JohnT, Imran, Sprawbow and Q Cubed...

    Now I know JohnT has also met Che, so that would be three degrees and I think (IIRC) he has met Ming - which would make me separated from Ming by four degrees...

    The real question is: Is everyone that has met someone on Poly attached in some way?

    For example the Austin meets would be linked to the UK by David Floyd who would have met a number of people who would have met Victor etc, etc...

    What about the guys in San Diego the other day - have any of them met anyone else linked to this web?

    I've got the main Aussie posters covered (AH & Finbar) and they have other Aussie posters covered...

    Can we connect everyone who has ever met anyone on Poly!!?
    Is it me, or is MOBIUS a horrible person?

    Well I don't think so... you have those people who haven't met anyone... they'd be hard to connect .

          I haven't met anyone from Poly yet.
          I'm building a wagon! On some other part of the internets, obviously (but not that other site).

              Streach your mind a little. What happens when two posters who have met haven't met anyone else?

                GP has made the rounds... I've had drinks with him twice.

                And I think Adam Smith has met others, and I had drinks with him in O'Hare as he was laying over.

                And yes... Che made the Friday night meet... as well as HTower and Loinburger...

                There has to be some connections somewhere

                  Well aside from the Atlanta meet, I've met GP as well.

                    Hmm.. well all of the people who went to either the London or DC Apolyton meets are connected by two degrees of seperation through me.

                        Well obviously. Perhaps the question should be "has this happened?"

                          Well, I THINK this was the case at the first Austin meet.
