Anyway, here's the simple question. Do
you keep your MOCs together after posting
them, or do you scrap them for parts and
build something else?

I'd like to hear your comments.

I'm with David. I don't know what "yes" means. The better answers might have
been

- I never build MOCS so the poll doesn't apply to me
- Keep them together
- scrap them for parts
- Keep them together for some significant period then scrap them
- Some of each, it depends
- Something else not listed as an answer

Just a bare "yes" doesn't make sense as an answer.

To all Poll writers:

You might want to consider running your poll question and the answers by
others (your friends via email or chat, or perhaps here via post) to see if
they hang together, before you create the poll. I'm guilty of this too, my
polls are far from poerfect, but it just seems that with the irrevocableness
of LUGNET polls, you really want to try to get them right on the first try.

Yes, I know, polls are just for fun, don't have real meaning, etc. But why
do them at all if you're not going to try to get them to make *some* sense?

(...) As is your speeling 8?) FWIW, I also can't answer Matt's poll, as my answer would be "yes and no" for instance I still have all my minifig scale cranes, but larger MOCs (e.g. my big bridge) I just can't afford to keep. ROSCO (21 years ago, 25-Feb-03, to lugnet.general)
