Naw, this is pretty much a settled issue. You can see this in the other thread on the subject where you can read the mods discussing it amongst themselves. Doc had to ask for an exemption just to get this thread in. If we were to start comparing the potency of various commercial strains, they'd lock it up.
Which thread is that?

Well, it looks like in the end, the Poll won. I didn't want it to win, but it did.
I wanted a full-on, totally objective, community-wide extraction team like discussed in the Potency Project, but that never happened. No one has a GS machine, or its too expensive, too complicated, or too unorganized to do it.
So, I guess I will just have to settle for this anecdotal poll that I thought was badly worded (sorry Doc_T, just an opinion, like this poll).
At least this got some results, unlike that damn dead-in-the-water Potency Extraction project.
It wasn't pointless after all!  ~ L C ~

Thanks for the comments. It's not like extraction can't happen, maybe this poll will inspire somebody to get the equipment.
Feel free to improve on the poll if you like. I never said it was perfect, just usable.

No prob Doc_T. I try to provide comments where ever I think they will help or provide thought.
Speaking of comments, I just wanted to apologize for criticizing your wording in your questions when I made this early post. I stil feel guilt saying it. I had no right to totally bash your poll. I'm sorry for saying what I said.
But I am going to leave that post as-is, because I like to look back on the things I said, and say "What the hell was I thinking? Why was I such an asshole?". I dont believe posts should be edited a lot, because it ruins that moment of thought when you wrote it. So, its staying, but only as a reminder that I can be a mean person sometimes, and I am try to change that and be more respectful of others opinions and work. As with most things in life, its a process....
As for improving it, do you mean I can add my own questions, or suggest to you to add more questions to the OP? Or both?
I guess I would just add to questions that I think would be helpful & provide a little better picture of PE potency, at least on the personal experience level.
Here's 2 questions, in Poll form. I think these 2 would go best if they were after the first question in your original poll (if you want to edit them in):

I just didn't want to have to use my thread explaining that the guy has constructed a faulty poll. He's set up the question so there can only be one answer- since there is no *confirmatory body* for mushrooms like the AKC for dogs, the only correct answer to both is "never".
If the guy didn't notice, he's neither a skilled pollster nor logician. If he did it on purpose, he's a prick.
Either way, it can go in another thread. Doesn't have to be in Mush Cult. A new poll would give him a chance to add a STAL option as well, as required by Shroomery standards.

Yeah, ya totally lost me. What are you referring to specifically?
Who has the faulty poll? (not being sarcastic, just curious)
And why do you keep saying "the guy" & "he". Why not call him out by his name? Who are you talking about?
I think those questions that I put are important for this thread because with more experience (aka more times eating one type of mushroom), the better experience you have with that mushroom, therefore a better "sample" of the true potency.
For example, if you tried PE once, it could have been the super-dank, ultra-potent batch. But if you've tried say 5 times, you might get variety, therefore you get a better idea of the "standard" potency, or the average.
Just something to think about. It could help in deterimining a correlation between experienced PE users & the real potency of the mushroom.
There's always room for improvement.

It is for someone called sir tokes a lot(STAL) its basiclly an option saying "I dont give a fuck" or "this poll has no relevance for me"

My friend who has eaten more strains than I have says PE is his favorite because it gives more visuals, Although there are still more strains we need to try these are the top on the list:
Oak ridge Lizard King KOH and KOH SS
those are the 3 that may be comparable to PE, not entirely sure, but i heard they are pretty good strains. i have an oak ridge print.
i'd love to get a Psilocybe Quebecensis sample and get some spores going around from that. i'm about 10 hour drive from where they are. the Vallee de Jacques Cartier 20 minute drive North of Quebec city, is where they have been found.

I loved that I actually guessed correctly with STAL - I chose, then decided to google it for urban dictionary. I would have chosen that one anyway
