I've got an idea...

What if we had a SaabNet contest to see who could most accurately identify the average Saaber response? We'd need some technical work, but this is what I'm envisioning: You just take topics, ask the reader to list his/her responses, and then guess what the most and least popular responses on Saabnet would be. You would get scored on the proportion to which your guesses correlated with the actual responses and the collective guesses. Plus, we'd be able to 'paint' the average Saaber tastes. 'Course if a markting co. got ahold of this data... <shudder>

EG:

TOPIC: Sports participated in:

You: (me) Cycling, hiking, tennis, basketball

Popular guess: swimming, hiking, cyling, martial arts, running, hockey, lacrosse, crew, sailing, fishing.

Unpopular guess: sumo, football, hunting, bowling, hot dog eating

TOPIC: Favorite Pop/Rock Artists

You (me): The Smiths, Snoop Dogg, Tupac, Social Distortion, Pixies, Concrete Blonde, Bad Religion, Black Flag, Coldplay, Radiohead, Metallica, Weezer, Rolling Stones, Who, Curtis Mayfield, Specials

Popular Guess: Pink Floyd, Radiohead, Rush, Tragically Hip, TMGB, BNL, Pixies

Unpopular Guess; Mariah Carey, Kid Rock, Avril Lavigne

Scott has the means to prevent ballot stuffing (see ballot-stuffing attempts on TSN 2000 election poll for a hilarous commentary on the parties' respective integrity)
