    If I ask I choose it's just good etiquette! :)

    I don't think the the "regulars" do that , but maybe people trying out YA or maybe people ask so many they forget certain ones....I try to choose BA with in a 24 hour period.

    I have seen the numerous questions that ppl haven't chosen a BA to, it is kind of crazy that there are that many.

    Not to make excuses, but sometimes when I ask a question a lot of the answers are not quite what I expected. Some of the answers are similar to the other answers of the question. To be fair, I let the voters choose so it won't look like I'm playing favorites.

    I'll be watching to see if there are ANY good answers to this one!!!

    It is irritating when someone thinks your answer is good/interesting enough that they email you for more info - and they don't bother to pick ANY BA?

    Because i like reading the answers i get to it. It makes me laugh or makes me think or it teaches me something. I choose BA's but sometimes i forget to.

    I've hated it too, but when you say something funny or quippy it gets the voters on my side!.

    BA isn't all just 'luck', ya know?

    cuz sometimes ppl are not sure which answer to pick, theres sometimes more than one best answer and it hard to decide. other thing is, sometimes ppl forget they posted a question.
