I'll give 24 votes to me, and one vote to you Keruvalia, because it still counts as sucking up.

I can vote for myself, right?

Man, I had to cut so many people I respected off this list. 25 seems like a lot, until you get into the numbers. There are so many great posters out there, and so many I have heard great things about that I've not had a chance to meet yet. I kind reminds me why I tool around on the board :).

If I didn't vote for you I'm sorry, chances are I did, but had to make some hard choices later on. Eutrusca and Bottle, I always read your posts closely, so I gave you each another vote.

In lieu of votes, I give :fluffle:'s to those left off my list - I know it's not adequate compensation for the lack of even distribution, but at this point its all I can offer :)

coolness points are awarded for acts of note-worthy coolness. accumulation of points will allow an individual access to such prizes as...

-six additional minutes of control of the remote control during any contested sporting event
-one free "do over" in any regulation game of beer pong
-the right to drink the Last Beer in the cooler
-4 year term as Mayor of Duluth, Minnesota
-automatic "shotgun" for the length of one road trip

if i were to attempt to buy this election--perhaps by paying for votes with cookies, coolness points, or the ever-popular "fluffles"--do you suppose people would have less respect for me, or more? i mean, we are talking about NS General Forum, here...people "respect" some very odd things...:)

Case in point, I'm indicating here that I'm recasting my votes.

Okie let's think about this before voting. Makes my life harder if I gotta go back and check all edits. :D

So, if you do edit, post that you've editted. Thanks, HR. :)
I recommend asking people that, if they want to recast their votes, then they need to post a fresh topic and delete their earlier post.

Just because you haven't heard of them doesn't mean they're not worthy of respect. Also, just because you have not heard of someone doesn't mean nobody else has.

... well, firstly, I figured you'd understand since you... didn't vote for me in the other thread, and all.

Secondly, you'll note I haven't voted for a *bunch* of the people I really like, including Kanabia, TPE and Monkey Pimp, amongst others. Not just you.

Partially that's because I didn't really want to split my votes too many ways, because I *never* like doing that. However, it's mainly because I wanted to avoid voting for people just because I like them.

The only people I'm voting for are the people I respect - mostly I respect people through seeing them debate. Hence why Bottle, Grave, Demi et al are going to get votes - I've been in debates with them before and respect their abilities in that area.

Cog and Myrth get respect-votes since they deal with all the suffering associated with mod-hood and neither have killed anyone yet (to my knowledge, at any rate >.> <.<)

Also, just as most of us in general like to debate and pass around :fluffle: , those in the RP forums enjoy RPing for fun and relaxation. They're not mutant, they're just different. And aren't our differences what makes it all so interesting?

There are some people on NS who never leave the RP forums. Think of those as the NS Sewers ... where the mutants live.

I don't know about that. Obviously they come out of RP once in a while or else they wouldn't have posted on this thread. Also, just as most of us in general like to debate and pass around :fluffle: , those in the RP forums enjoy RPing for fun and relaxation. They're not mutant, they're just different. And isn't our differences what makes it all so interesting?
Differences are OK as long as we're all the same. Otherwise you get anarchy.

i give 25 to Tink because she thinks its cool to have sex in a church. :rolleyes:
And noone else will. :eek:

So ... lemme get this straight ... you're going to give your 25 votes in a "most respected" competition to a person based on an action you don't respect?

If you're serious, ok ... but until you clarify, I'm not adding your votes.

Speaking of cooking, I have to get out of here and do my grocery shopping. I may be one of the very few women who hate shopping...ALL shopping. Think good thoughts for me while I brave the retail chaos. If you don't hear from me within a couple of hours please send out a rescue squad.

I have a hard time appreciating RPers.

Acting is one thing. It's a noble art. RPers, though ... *shudder*. No offense to anyone, but it just isn't my bag. I see it on the same level as furries and cosplay.

Contest note: I will not be updating the first post until the end of Round 1.

It's too annoying to keep up with. I will note the final post at Round 1's official end time and do a total count at that time. Round 2 will begin when I am finished with that count.

Since I am human and prone to mistakes, I would like at least one other person to do a count as well and check my math before I begin round 2.

Any volunteers?

You should probably announce that any voting posts added or edited after the deadline will not be counted. That should (hopefully) keep voting posts static because you're defining an edited post as not being a valid voting post.

I thought about locking the thread for you and suggesting that you start a new topic for the next round, but these sorts of things have to be able to operate normally without Moderator assistance. This is at least the third such competition I've seen in "General", so I'd rather not set a precedent that requires Mod assistance every time a new contest is started.

Keruvalia, I'm counting up votes here and a couple of posts are really vague... namely 41 and 42 so far (I'm up to page 4). They have 'here's a vote' and 'I vote for' in them and name only one person... should these sorts of vote-posts be counted as 25 votes for one person, or just 1 vote for them?

At the moment I'm assuming the latter ('a vote' = 1...), but I thought I'd draw your attention to it and get some sort of official idea.

Cool. It's looking good so far. I've got a a couple of small differences from your interim runnning totals, which could be due to post-hoc edits, and probably not enought to change the order.

(Well done for maintaining the running count as long as you did BTW, it's not a short task!)

I've asked for clarifications on the vague posts you've mentioned. I have gotten a reply on one of them, but not the other.

Keep going: #42 is clarified later. #41 isn't, but it doesn't look enough either way to bring that candidate into the final cut - so probably not worth worrying about IMO.

just for fun i like to point out thisLost in the AmazonLost in the Amazon

The average rating of any book on Amazon.com is four stars. No matter how brilliant or terrible: four stars. The only exceptions are:

* If the book is brand new, its rating is five stars because the only reviews have been secretly written by the author.
* If the book is widely unknown, it has four and a half stars because the only people who have bothered to post reviews are devoted fans.
* If the book gets lots of publicity and everyone says it’s great, it gets three and a half stars because people complain it’s overhyped.

Men shop like its a military mission. We work out what we need, where we're going we get there and get in and out as quick as we can. Women do it like a mission of exploration. They pack up all their stuff and disapear to the shops for a few weeks... You sound like you're caught in the middle.
