The Mock-Business Project. And a Polite Request for a Quick Poll.

Good (time of the day), everyone! I have to run a poll, but I am very uncomfortable with stopping people and directly asking.

Actually making myself known - This is a first for me. I will admit to being a lurker, only because I have to gauge the safety level before stepping into anyone's line-of-sight.

So far, this place looks like somewhere I can be heard respectfully.

Uh, I have a hard time communicating, so I apologize in advance for the bizarre speech-patterns, word-choices, and grammar.

One of my classes asked me to gather a poll on 100 people for a simple yes/no question. It is part of a mock-business pitch. I just need about 70 yes/no replies and some kind of (first) name, real or fake. To protect everyone's privacy, I will take any (appropriate) names or initials. Leaving a name like "Chalkboard" with your yes/no is totally fine.

Question: Do you like to show off your pride? (Items, achievements, etc.) Yes or no? +(fake)name (If there is no name left in the post itself, I will simply take note of the forum name.)

Edit: Wow! I'm not invisible here! *kowtows to responses* orz . I don't know how to compensate you all, but I'll send you each a personal thank-you note and loan you my ear, in case you(pl) ever need to someone to hear you(pl).
