Correction:

The title of the thread sucks. You should obviously read 'Let's give' I suppose.

Now to my personal comments.

I think the following people have been underestimated:

Tripledoc: very, ahem, special. But despite his strange views, even in the eyes of leftists, he takes the time to bring facts to the table, and he's much more cultured than people seem to think.

Whaleboy: exceedingly annoying moral relativism, but we must grant him that he usually defends it with some competence.

Agathon: if he can bring a debate to a conceptual level, he will win it, almost certainly.

[DinoDoc]

I vote for the real Boris.

I was about to put you in my underestimated list, but seeing you got 3 votes, well... I let yourself be the victim of an even greater punishment.

Nope. Apart from the obvious joke nominations, people seem to have picked pretty well.

The majority of my posts are sarcastic or scatological and too many of them are trolls - that rules me out as a serious candidate.

I wonder why someone still takes that seriously

I voted for you on the grounds of your knowledge of Marx, which is unparalled on this board.

Someone's bitter that no one voted for him.

[chequita guevara]

I personally like tripledoc.

[BeBMan]

Yeah, of course, I don't get the big prize

[Boris Godunov]

Is the prize Zylka's banana?

[BeBMan]

Certainly

[chequita guevara]

I want out.
