You were being sarcastic? You'd better be careful what you suggest sarcastically. I might do it.

Well thank you, but my purpose wasn't to boast about increased total popularity but rather to talk about how the sites compare with each other.

However, it might be fun to set up a RinkWorks stock market, where each site has a price (which changes each night) that's based on its current traffic and how many people "own" it. I could have online forms set up for the virtual purchase and sale of stock, and the idea would be that you have to make the most money over a predetermined set period of time. I've seen that kind of contest idea work on other sites. I think it would be cool. I just have to think of an appropriate comic, but legitimate, prize to award the winner.

There.

Your assignment: figure out if the above proposal was sincere, or if it was proposed in the manner in which "I Think" is written.
