taken.
A little change is good every now and then, people. I would support a name change that kept the Foundry metaphor alive. The Break Room? Smoking Area?
I am against smoking so Break Room, I will run a poll now

foundry discussion is so... bleh. Anyway, unless it gets 50% + 1 votes, it suggests folks are open to change.

What? That's not what he meant. He said over 50% … which means basically the poll might as well be "Foundry Discussion vs. Any Other Name" (
I AM NOT SAYING TO DO THIS).
Please put Foundry Discussion and/or Foundry Discussion (Mostly) back up there …

I've tried explaining that several times. People seem to not understand it.
sailor might try an experiment of putting "donut" as one of the options. It is usually most picked.

They only go wrong if you keep fiddling with them and changing the questions/options... If you can;t make up your mind what you're asking, then don;t expect to get any proper or meaningful results
