Now I'm curious how your engagement with the Olympics this year compared to past Olympics competitions

This poll got a lot of comments in its thread. Apparently there's a lot of confusion between criminal vs. civil law. Consider learning what the difference is.

This week's poll was suggested by SaoSurvivor. It's the only forum post he (or she) has ever written, and it's an interesting question, so why not? I'm pretty sure cheating/infidelity is considered illegal in some countries (even if I don't know any off the top of my head)
