that's probably wise.

Also, I would suggest that for all of you who have yet to decide on which creature to vote for, that you should vote for "not hedgehog." The result would be that we would all win our choice of creature, because everything else is "not hedgehog." The only loser would be the cute and prickly hedgehog (and I'm sure we'd find a way around that formality too.)
aha, careful there ! "not a hedgehog" would indeed refer to any animal other than the adorable hedgehog. but ! the "not hedgehog" is actually a specific entity in its own right, and not simply the negation of another entity. specifically, it is the specific entity seen in tirsales' avatar (we're pretty sure that's tirsales himself) ! (and possibly others. we're not actually sure just how many "not hedgehogs" are to be found in the wild, because they are rather shy creatures and don't like to be counted. ) so, a vote for "not hedgehog" is indeed a vote FOR something, and not a vote AGAINST something. clear ?

Oops. So am I voting for anything that's not a hedgehog, or am I voting for a hedgehog that isn't?

okay, we'll meet back here in *looks at watch* two and a half minutes okay ?

further evidence of the kind and honourable nature of the not hedgehog (perhaps i should add a hyphen in the poll, so it would be clearer) :

Echidna? Thats not a not-hedgehog at all! (Or is it?)

Quote:
the goddess fierce Echidna who is half a nymph with glancing eyes and fair cheeks, and half again a huge snake, great and awful, with speckled skin, eating raw flesh beneath the secret parts of the holy earth. And there she has a cave deep down under a hollow rock far from the deathless gods and mortal men. There, then, did the gods appoint her a glorious house to dwell in: and she keeps guard in Arima beneath the earth, grim Echidna, a nymph who dies not nor grows old all her days
