current poll on the uscho front page:

Which currently unranked team is the most likely to make the NCAA Tournament AND win at least one game?

Cornell is current tied for 2nd, behind Colorado College.

Already voted.  And once you do, the "vote" button disappears.

What's really funny is that Providence is trailing "I don't give a flying..."  More people cared to vote in the non-vote category than there were Providence fans who wanted to register one for their team.  Let's hope the Friars get paired up with the "...Flyers" and get knocked off in the first round.

if you really care (and you shouldn't), just clear your cookies and you can vote again and again and again.

Actually, clearing your cookies will not allow you to vote again and again and again.  USCHO does not use cookies to track whether you have already voted or not, but instead uses some form of IP logging.  This is why if you have multiple computers sharing a single IP address behind a NAT router, only one person will be able to vote in those front page polls, and the results will show up for anyone else who tries to access the page.  If for some odd reason you really have the urge to stuff one of those votes, your best bet is to hit a public lab and vote once on each of the computers.

That's OK.  I didn't really want to vote multiple times.  It's not like I live in Chicago (early and often, rght?).  Just noting that if you did, you'd have to get around it somehow.  BTW, I haven't cleared my cookies since that bad sushi I had a few weeks ago.

(When do we get the faces back, so I can add the proper sentiment?)

I think we can understand exactly to what sort of "cookie-clearing" bad sushi would lead. :-D

Smileys are obviously back. All the old ones still work, but the "More" smileys page doesn't work yet. If you remember what they were, feel free though. Search works again, too. Getting there...

We appreciate all your hard work, Age. ;-)  Of course, I'm looking forward to the return of the dancing banana. :-P
Is next year here yet?

Indeed, great job.  But dancing bananas on top of bad sushi?  Whoa, too much for me.
