This is a post for my college teacher to appease him. Thank you for your time, Charles.

Um. It is usually more useful to post a topic of inquiry or some such than posting for no apparent reason.

Did the syllabus say "Make a topic on GarageGames to prove that you understand the basic mechanics of using community forums?"

Maybe he's doing a scientific experiment to educe certain types of behavior. Like the test where a plate of cookies is left on the table with no one watching. Would you eat one?

...mmmm... tasty cookies

Hell, I'd eat the cookies if people WERE watching ;).

I normally demand milk of the room in general
~ "What kind of mean bastard left these cookies out w/out leaving a glass of milk nearby?"

The fun part of the cookie test would be to do it in a break room, and start with a meticulously stacked bunch of cookies. And then start removing them one at a time when people are not in the room, just to see if they decide that "well, others are eating them, why not me..." or "I'd better get one while they're still here!"

Plus it would give researchers and excuse to eat cookies one at a time when no one was around!

That wouldn't work on me, I just grab the entire plate and bring it back to my desk so I don't get caught ;)

Maybe this is one of those crazy new experiments where it is proven that more people are likely to respond to your post when you ask them not to, than when you ask for a response. Interesting tactic. Touch

Could be... or maybe the professor is just checking their profiles for number of posts?

Either way, this is pretty lame.
