general

I wanted to do it at the start of December but the weather was so bad with storms I was stuck in Taupo waiting for it to clear but had to move on since I’m on a tight schedule

That would’ve been cool genuinely, but I fly out of Christchurch in 3 days :(((

Wellington was a cool city imo

Auckland kinda meh

My ferry got delayed too

Oh nice, yeah I'm only doing the north island and I am not touching Auckland lol

I hiked the Tararuas, took a train over to Masterton and walked 10 miles to the trailhead and then proceeded to get fucked over by weather for three days and I couldn't summit Mitre peak.

For the 5 days in Welly, I'll be doing local hikes and going to the museum n stuff

Ahh nice yeah I think I probably should’ve just focused on one instead of squeezing things in. Missed out Taranaki and Tongoriro which were the only things I really wanted to do there. South Island is going better tho nothing gone wrong yet

Nice stuff

WTF that’s mental 10 miles haha

Did you sign up for the great walk uhh

Milford?

I don't know what to do in the southern island since I didn't look anything up at all from there, expect I am told the Milford pass or hike or trek idk is like suuuuper pretty, but you need to book out way far in advance

Anyway, hope you have a good time in Christchurch! Seems like Tuesday is a big storm, so you might be missing that even!

Yeah I hope you like it and the weather isn’t too bad, it’s small but nice imo. Do you fly out of Wellington then?

Denver -> LAX -> Auckland -> Wellington, yeah

Brutal fuckin flight

Yikes

Denver tho

Goated

I want to go to Colorado that has some great nature

Kribbles, you better hurry and become a Denver expert, despite just moving there

I'll probably be out there in January, and expect you to know all the insider local recs

Well I know which apartment to not get lol

only two viable options here

this should be select multiple

^

any number of eyes less than the total amount is a partial blink

just one open is also a partial blink

the first option does not make sense

it is 2 or 5

I think that for it to be a wink, there needs to be a current subset of two eyes that are able to catch the focus of an observer, and then one of them needs to close

so it depends on the arrangement of eyes

I asked my sister this to annoy her

then thought it would be a good poll

we need some christmas themed polls next week

3 isn't a real choice, I agree with Bob that it's realistically either 2 or 5 (ignoring the word exact because that's dumb)

but yeah I think that for a wink to happen, you need to meet these conditions: -Need to be a set of two eyes that can gain focus and trigger the "these are human eyes" response -# (alternatively, any set of arrangements that can trigger that response, like a 👁️👁️👃 👁️👁️ type thing. ) -One eye, or one eye representative needs to fully close and then anything that happens to the eyes outside of that subset don't matter. they can do whatever. it doesn't change anything

I closed my eyes and thought of a sexy spider girl winking at me and that's how I decided my answer.

I see

what about a medusea Pirate

with a forehead 3rd eye

that's what I was trying to reason around, when it's symmetrically imbalanced

the 3rd eye isn't in the question, unless you're at an angle where you only see it and one other eye

I think a third, central eye doesn't count for winking. If it's closed, you don't think about it.

I showed my family your answer Polu

my sister was amused

2 is the cloest to my answer so I'm voting for that but for the record doesn't accurately refelct my opinions

now that I think about it, the real answer is "any emphasized closing of an eye or eyes"

I think in my mind winking is explicitly the closing of one eye

I think if they're blinking with anymore its just some kind of strat to not get killed by that one scp

"I think we are all still picturing sexy spiders" - my mom, during the walk home

I am glad the poll is so split. Now that I am home, I agree that 3 of the answers do not make much sense, but I wanted to include edge cases in case someone happened to agree with them

If I could redo the poll, I would have included "all eyes on one half of the face" as an option

I will ammend my answer slightly

If the eyes are stacked on one side like that, and that close togetrher

I think all of them would need to be closed to wink

Yeah I think considering symmetry or not changes the answer

how is it still tied?!

Curse your despicable centrism leg you're costing my side a victory

I like how every tme I look back, 2 new votes are added, perfectly split

its really funny

Why is the poll winking

I can hear the small ones running from the snow

's poll If you had more than 2 eyes, how many could you close and have it be classified as winking. has closed.

I found a crazy stat in Discord

my account has logged into Discord (across Desktop, mobile, and web) a total of 47 times

I've migrated desktops twice, phones twice, and laptop once in that time, so at minimum that's where 5 came from

so I've restarted my devices ~42 total times in (almost) 10 years

where did you see that stat?

You know, mine is probably not that dissimilar

you shut your computer off every night I thought Pika

and Tiny, I did one of those data package export things from Discord

Oh, does it count actually relogging in, I have it set to auto log in. I thought you meant just manually entering your information to log in

ahh gotcha

then nevermind
