I asked this the last time I did a poll when someone mentioned it.. I dont get/understand the AndyW joke, maybe I wasn't on here when it all happened etc, but if anyone will explain I will incorporate it (if appropriate) in future.

Ok, a few questions here..
Does AndyW still post on this board? I don't recall seeing any of late from a user with that name.
Why is it AndyW and not Andy?.. was his name actually AndyW? Or is it intended to combine AtW and Andy together in some strange kind of double-person name?
Thanks.The cycle of life: born > learn > work > learn > dead.Comment

Whose poo is that on your avatar's face? Reminds me of a recurrent dream, I am following Dawn French up an escalator when she undergoes a huge bottom explosion. Bliss. What was the question?bloggoth

Andyw (lower-case "w") was banned after a few months. His famous last post and ban caused much amusementOriginally posted by chris79 View PostOk, a few questions here..

Thanks.
If you look through his posts, you can get some idea of why he's become a byword for obnoxious stupidity. Also, you'll see that he never posted after about four in the afternoon, which led to the theory that he was a schoolkid (his posting career was entirely during the summer holidays) who got thrown off the computer when his mother came home from work.
I'm not sure how the tradition of including him as the last option in polls came about, though
