| New Poll - Bad Parts of Manga |
For once, we're gonna look at the negative. This week's poll was suggested by our member anandparera. Out of the given choices, which aspect are you most frustrated with in a series? (And I bet someone will complain of no "Other" or "None" choices.)
Edit: For the choice "Bad / weak endings", that also includes the series having no ending at all, including being canceled, axed, rushed, hiatus, etc.

| New Poll - Favorite Activity |
I wanted to do an Olympic poll, but I couldn't think of a good one. And there was only 1 suggested Olympic-related poll, and I didn't like it too much. So we go with this poll suggestion from our member BlackOrion. From the given list of activities, which do you like the most?

| helz0ne Officially Closes |
I was just contacted that helz0ne is officially closing now. Their domain expires in about a week. The good news is that apparently some of their projects will be continued by a new group, but I don't know any specifics.
Goodbye to helz0ne. |

Here's a fun one from nowyat. From the given list, what club would you probably join if you were given this kind of situation? For me personally, I'd totally be in the Computer club. That's one of my passions~ (and my chosen career path)
