Facebook poll and game

Postby David Bean on Tue Jan 03, 2006 7:21 pm

I have 300+ friends, but most of them added me! :P

BTW, Will, where's the 'Steve Savage' option? I thought all of your polls had to have 'Steve Savage' as one of the options, and in this case it would actually have been relevant, since if my spies are correct, Mr Savage has more Facebook friends than anyone else in the entire university!

In addition, I presume the question related to friends in St Andrews, rather than in total. I have a substantial number of friends called David Bean, as I know you do with people called 'Will Watson'; I believe we both got the idea from the same source (the young lady in question even started randomly adding people with MY name, then messaging them to explain who she was and why she was doing it - bloody medics, you're all insane).

Anyone else been playing this new Facebook 'game'? As you can see, all the cool kids are doing it...

In response... http://standrews.facebook.com/group_pro ... p?gid=8324

And I can't really put Steve in, as none of the polls I suggest involving Sabbs seem to go through anymore (recent highlights you all have missed out on include 'which sabb has the best ass?' and 'most feckless? YOU decide'.

Will...Can I state for the record that I'm not a sabb. Furthermore, I have no intention of ever being a sabb...

And to Mr Bean, your spies got it wrong...Lee does indeed have more friends than I...*damn*

I can't find any other Seth Ewins anywhere.

Maybe that's a good thing.


In regards the person with most friends,
Perhaps the purpose of the 40+ cast of Mr Kane's A Midsummer Night's Dream was to gain more facebook friends. Though I think he already had a significantly high number before that so probably not.

Oh dear Steve - still bitter that you were rated least sexy? (joint last place with Yabroff)

Will: yes, I've seen that thread before - followed the link from Victoria's profile. Bastard. ;)

Steve: I don't think whether you're a sabb or not is exactly the point - Mr Watson merely seems to have an unhealthy obsession with you when it comes to his polls. I think Lee's pole position may be a relatively new thing; I was assured that my information was correct at the time I heard it...

I'm quite impressed you've managed to go a whole thread without saying 'my ass', 'your ass', 'his/her ass' or talking about someone's ass.

Just for that, you can kiss it!

I really don't think I have the most facebook friends in St Andrews, so if anyone can find who does, please post it here.

Also, seth, I do not have a 40+ cast for Midsummer to get more facebook friends. It's simply an artistic thing (you'll see why during rehearsals) and anyway, I had most of them (and others who auditioned) on my list already, yourself included.

I do have 462 (I would like to hit 500 so feel free to add me!) but I am glad to say that I know most, if not all, of them. Perhaps not to go out with for coffee every week, but people I would say hello to in Tesco, ask them how things were going if I saw them in the street, or saunter over to if in a bar. A lot has been said, and written, about my friends list, and how I must be some sad loser to have so many facebook friends. Think that if you wish, but I certainly don't believe it to be true. I am very happy with my social life, and the number of people I know/am friends with. Of course, as we go through life and meet more new people (one of my favourite past times- meeting new people that is) then I assume my friends list will grow normally.

And, for all you other people out there with more than 300 friends, please don't think of it as sad in any way, shape or form. Be proud of your list! We could make badges - "Proud To Be A Facebook Whore!".

I don't know why anyone would think badly of someone who had a large friends list - why wouldn't it be a good thing? :)

You could work on the logic that you would happily buy your friends a drink in a pub, and thus having 300+ friends listed means that you are going to be very poor should they all appear in the same bar at once. And very wasted when they all buy you a pint in return.

I do enjoy causing offence. I must admit, my facebook list bloated after practically all the first year medics added me - but at least I can put names to faces now...

Sod that. I only ever buy drinks for one of my friends and, handily, she only ever drinks water. Well, and the occasional cup of tea, but I can just about stretch to that... ;)

I have 979 friends, though the majority added me. Who am I to turn someone's request down? I guess that makes me a facebook whore.

I still think Lee Kane, even though he's left now, has the most St Andrews friends with 992 and 1218 in total, though having also left the bubble now, I may be wrong...
