The Twitter message it throws off when you click "Tweet my vote" is completely non-human readable to someone not familiar with the site. It almost looks like spam. You have room to make it more verbose, which could help with virality.

Also, since you're in Chicago, why the hell don't we ever see you guys out?

Agreed, that twitter message looks gross. And I wanted to keep it as short as possible so people felt comfortable adding their own message rather than just leave some redundant default text. Feel free to add a throwdown of what the default message should be? :) We'll think about it more over here too. Thanks for bringing it up.

I don't know why you don't see us :) We are pretty social.

"I voted for Robot for new versus old Yahoo. #nar #hashymchashyhash bit.ly/zombies" That's bizarre, yet descriptive, enough to invite a click. I'd say Ninja is old, Robot is new since you have old on left and new on right.

Pick a night. I'll get shitfaced with you. Ask the Pollers or Thomas or any of the other folks: it's how I roll.
