Limited data--mostly just if a user is banned currently or not, and whether it's a permanent ban or not, along with aggregate data for the same. I'm heading out shortly, but if there's anything specific you're looking for let me know and I'll see if I can do it or not.

Number of permanent banned users might be interesting if you can get it, even better if you could filter on users with more than 50 posts (to cut out the bots/spammers, lazy/obvious trolls). If I'm making a wish list too, can you pull their backer level if they've set it too?

I'd be interested to see how many High Admirals & Space Marshalls etc have been banned.

Let's do the opposite, because it's hell of a lot easier:
• Not bleeding edge — it may be untested and unstable, but it's actually pretty old, and is more a case of lock-in and over-engineering.
• Design by committee is iffy — it's only one insane guy who constantly changes his mind, but I suppose the community ideas could count.
• Not Peter Principle — no person of any competence is being moved upwards, and the people at the top didn't get there because of what they did at a lower level.

Agreed, plus not cash cow because they haven't put out a product yet. Or analysis paralysis because that implies some design beyond the fever dreams of a human thumb.

Everything else applies

The Woodchuck® Winter Chill Snickerdoodle

The Woodchuck® Winter Chill Snickerdoodle cookie is baked with one of our unique seasonals. Winter Chill is aged with French and American oak and finished with a touch of vanilla. Added to the makings of a Snickerdoodle delight, the cider adds its own sweet spin on the traditional dessert. Ready to test it out? Here’s the recipe for our Woodchuck Winter Chill Snickerdoodle!

The Woodchuck Winter Cider Snickerdoodle

Recipe yields 10-12 cookies (depending on how big you make them!)

Ingredients:

1 1/4 cup of Woodchuck® Limited Release Winter Cider
1/2 cup of sugar
1/4 cup of brown sugar
1/2 cup of unsalted butter
1/2 cup of shortening
1 egg
1 1/2 cup of flour
1 tsp. of cream of tartar
1/2 tsp. of baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 tbsp. cinnamon
3 tbsp. sugar
Recipe:

Preheat the oven to 350° F.

Pour the Woodchuck Winter cider into a saucepan, and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Cook down until the cider is syrupy. This process should take about 10 minutes. Once the cider has boiled down to about several tablespoons, set aside and bring to room temperature.

In a separate bowl, whisk together the brown sugar, sugar, butter, and shortening until fluffy. Once the cider is ready, add the boiled cider and egg to the mixture, and continue to whisk.

In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, cream of tartar, baking soda, and salt. Add the dry ingredients to the whisked mixture and continue to stir until it forms a fluffy dough.

In a small bowl, sift together the 3 tbsp. of sugar, and the 1/2 tbsp. of cinnamon. Take the dough, and roll into balls about 1 ½ inches thick. Take the dough balls, and roll them in the sugar/cinnamon mixture until the exterior of the dough is coated. Place on an ungreased baking sheet.

Bake the cookies for about 12 minutes, or until light golden brown. When the cookies have finished baking, they will still appear dough-like towards the center, but will firm as they cool! Take the cookies out of the oven, and let cool.

Pour your glass of milk, heat up that hot cocoa (or again… hot cider!), take a seat beside the fire and get ready to dunk!

Somebody suggest noddle machine to be server side on the CIG forums, so that people could steal or buy them and attach them to the outer hulls of ships as extra shielding and snack sources.

Are the noodle machines destructible? Has anyone tried? Honest to goodness, if they were server-side and indestructible and you could find a way to get it stuck in your spaceship's geometry (which doesn't seem that hard) you could make an invincible ship covered in vending machines. The imagery is amazing.
