No multiple votes with multiple accounts, and the nominees can vote for themselves. Which is why I expect to get 0 votes.

Our nominees are as shown.

Oh wait, Tom, the Captain's already a Nazi.

I'll declare the winner in oh I dunno. I'll talk it over with Tom.

???

And I'd give the poll until...Wednesday.
G-Spark
Thursday. I might not be availible on Wednesday. Sides polls like this need time. I'm actually pushing for Saturday.

I say Saturday.
JacaByte
I vote for pp0u20e8.

He's not on often enough. The Grammar Nazi must be on duty on a regular basis. I mean, we're electing someone to do a job that some people think makes him/her comparable to a Nazi. This is a huge responsibility.

Hmm...I wonder if we could get a real Nazi...

I can't believe you're actually taking this seriously.

I can't believe you're actually taking this seriously. (Ok, you're probably not.)

Not the first time I've (tried to) used someone's sig against them (meaning this is the second time).

I've heard that before. I still don't know what it means...I'm assuming it's "laid-off", but that wouldn't make any sense.

Considering it's a quote from PARANOIA, no I don't.

*facepalm*

"Get laid" means "find someone to have sex with."
Sponge Tom
Oh. Well that's nice. Would you care to vote now?
Lektor
Nope smile.gif
Rickton
Not really. Like I said, I find Grammar Naziism annoying, and even if I did approve I'd think of it as a job for the community at large anyway, not for a single person.
Sponge Tom
Lektor: Then you will be at the mercy of whoever we, not you, elect to correct your grammar problems.

Rickton: What if we restrict Grammar Nazism to ATT and B&B? And there is a purpose for a Grammar Nazi. Normal individuals are less influential. Who would you listen to? Me, or someone designated by the members as the Official Grammar Nazi?
Rickton
Oh no! Whatever shall I do? rolleyes.gif

Can I point out, one of the people in your 'poll' hasn't posted for years, the other very rarely posts here, and only occasionally in the B&B. Next you have a guy that will post once in a blue moon, here or the B&B. Archon I don't know, so therefore I'm lead to believe he either doesn't post here, or is so unremarkable a member, I haven't noticed him. The less said about Sparky the better, and finally I'm not saying that a guy from the Nova boards who's been so lazy he's named himself after a Sci Fi character with an added 'Captain' at the front of his name would be a rubbish choice, I, well, actually, that's exactly what I'm saying.

Also, who died and made you God?
G-Spark
Archon's the guy who made the plug Anathema for Nova. I:

1. Nominated him mostly for work in the Nova boards.
2. Have almost no idea who the rest of the candidates are.
4. Will keep the naziing to the Escape Velocity boards where it's possibly needed instead of where no one cares as much.
5. Don't know what I have a 5 for.

And seriously, who voted for me?
The Journalist
Wait, I'm on this list?

More "have sex with someone you've found," I should think.

Of course you are. None of these other chumps have what it takes.
Lektor
To be fair, TJ, you're the only one I'd vote for! The fact that you post here gives you soemthing of an edge over the other ones. Besides, this pole has a serious lack of Taz.

You are a journalist!
mrxak
I'm voting for Micah L for the same reason why I nominated him. He has years of experience in holding positions without being around for them, and I think that's exactly what we need right now for a grammar nazi, somebody who doesn't post.
Shlimazel
The Journalist is a smart guy. Plus he doesn't often post. The perfect canidate!
Rickton
QUOTE(Shlimazel @ Feb 17 2008, 07:23 PM) *

Maybe not by your standards...
Lektor
But his standard of not posting is 'doesn't transcribe every meaningless, stupid and inane thought that enters his head in to text'.
The Journalist
I lurk like mad. Lately I just havn't had much to say.
Pufer
How's Idaho working out for you?

-Pufer
Captain Zaphod Beeblebrox
So, if I lose, do I still get to be a Grammer Nazi?
Pufer
No. You'll have to turn in your armband and Luger to the front desk by the end of the business day when you lose.

-Pufer
Captain Zaphod Beeblebrox
Okay, but whoever wins will be recieving my constant nagging about people's grammer. (I'm real picky.) smile.gif

I'm actually back in Reno, have been for quite some time. Idaho didn't quite pan out.
Sponge Tom
The Grammar Nazi has the responsibility of appointing an Assistant Grammar Nazi.
Captain Zaphod Beeblebrox
Sweet!

Fantastically excellent smile.gif.

Ok, so Micah L is technically the winner, but I looked him up and found this:

Can I vote for The Journalist again? No? Dangit.

Shlimazel, have you noticed that you quoted yourself three times in your signature? That bothers me, but it probably wouldn't if you were someone more interesting. Magically turn into Judgefloro and it will be acceptable.

That's the stupidest thing ever. If you didn't check the 'last seen' before putting him on the poll, that's your fault. He is intitled to being the Grammar Nazi even if he doesn't log in any more. Don't make him pay for your ignorance.

No no no. He was nominated and voted for by people that knew exactly his activity level. A vote for Micah L was a vote for Micah L, not whoever came in second.

Amen. Let the results stand as they are.

That's, "entitled".

And I didn't put him on the poll.
G-Spark
Then some one became a nazi and we all rolled over and died.

No one cares!

But I don't need your interest. I already have the interest of EVN plugin developers.

Nope, I meant intitled, as in, the past tense of 'in title'. I type exactly what I mean.

And I don't care. He still won. The decision stands until he declines in a public post in this topic.
