Rocky and I need your help. We're a bit stuck finalizing the topic for the CULT shirt top 10 list.
By Andrew Pollack on 11/25/2008 at 01:33 PM ESTSince I took over the production side of the C.U.L.T. shirt in 2004, I don't recall ever having so much trouble picking out a top ten list. We'd really like to get it posted out there but need some help. Here are some ideas that Rocky and I came up with. We think some are close, but none ring the bell.
The goal for these is:
1. Must be fun, and lead to some good funny entries.
2. Must be in good spirit, though a little bit of a poke isn't out of the question.
3. Must not be too "insider"
4. Must be fun. See rule 1.
Some ideas:
- T10 Rejected Lotus Product Ideas
- T10 Signs of Post Lotusphere Stress Syndrome
- T10 Agile Personae that Didn't Make The Cut
- T10 Lotusphere Rookie Mistakes
- T10 Things you Still Can't Do with Domino
I think some of these get close, but none quite make it.

What do you think? Do you like one of these or have ideas of your own?

I liked T10 Lotusphere Rookie Mistakes
As I was one of the rookies at LS2008 it could be interesting to see how many
of these mistakes I actually did :)

I like "T10 Agile Personae that Didn't Make The Cut"
JOEY. Joey works in the receiving department of Universal Exports. He is
socially and hygienically challenged and spends most of the day trying to work
out how to get out of doing his job. He uses Lotus Notes offline mail support
to delete the return receipts from mails he doesn't want anyone to read, uses
the calendaring functions to calculate his sick days to two decimal digits, and
has become an expert at locking his password so that IT cannot recover it and
are forced to delete his mail file with all his work orders in it...
