So I was creepin around the site and I saw two interesting pictures that I have questions about. http://careers.stackoverflow.com/company/stack-exchange

  1. Which current SE employee is the best at ping pong?

  2. Do you guys ever hold ping pong tournaments? Singles/Doubles?

  3. It seems that the room is pretty long, however it seems there is limited width. So has anyone ever ran into the wall trying to save a shot? Or does it not get that competitive ever?

  4. Which current SE employee is the best at pool?

  5. Do you guys ever hold pool tournaments? Singles/Doubles?

    @LowerClassOverflowian I don't think that comment is helping your case for up votes. Anyway, up voted, I like it

    The amount of time you spend composing a question doesn't guarantee that your question is good, or that it will be well-received by the community. In any event, the [always-friday-in-iceland] tag was banned a long time ago, and you're three days early anyway. We is serious cats here.

    "I had to say something to show the pure bias some people have in their voting habits." - it's not particularly clear a) what bias you're talking about b) in what way you've shown it

    If you think those pictures are interesting, then you have some exploring to do: upstairs, downstairs.

Disclaimer: I'm a remote employee so I'm not in the NY office a lot.

  1. Not sure who the best is. Jarrod, Matt Sherman, and Jay Hanlon are all pretty good.
  2. The last team summit we held a doubles ping-pong tournament.
  3. Not sure about how aggressive people get. When I've played, people take it easy in general.

The pool table is from the London office I believe. There's no pool table in the NYC office.
