I say this because I notice some of these questions are not really answerable at the moment, yet they are worthy of discussion. It seems to me creating a chat room would allow for a more relaxed atmosphere where various "theories" can be pondered upon.

I have no clue what x and y are.

From Casey's answer below, I forked one of the queries to perform this rough draft:

-- Questions with high score and high viewcount yet unanswered
-- Unanswered means any question that has not been formally accepted (there could be answers). 
select top 500 Id as [Post Link], Score, ViewCount from Posts 
where Score > 10 and ViewCount > 100 and ParentId is null and AcceptedAnswerId is null
order by ViewCount desc

There are probably better ways to do this. Let me know what you think.
