I've just participated in the poll.

Well, in this case I´m refering not to the catholic seven deadly sins, but to the Five Deadly sins of the Project Manager, which are: arrogance, overambition, Rational ignorance, Fraudulence and Abstinence.

Then, I apologize too, when I saw "Which examples of this sins would you like to mention?", my mind directly went to the amount of food and goodies that we prepared for the go-live.

By the way, in the poll, I chose another answer.
