Hello, and welcome to the "New Administrator Nominations" voting page. Here, Registered Users will be able to nominate current users for an administrative position. On April 26 all users receiving a nomination accompanied by at least two supporting votes will be transferred to a separate voting page where administrators will be eligible to vote on who we will op at this time.
Please keep in mind that any votes placed on this page will NOT be transferred to the final voting page, and therefore you should vote even if you don't necessarily want the user to be adminned. You may vote for up to three people max (if you nominate a user, that will count as a for and you will only be allowed 2 more for votes). There should be only one nomination for each user, and for God's sake, don't nominate yourself, you narcissistic prick. Sysops votes will count twice as much as registered users (as they will better know, from experience, which users have the qualities required to be a successful sysop). In the score counter, this will show up as 2 points per admin vote, and 1 point for user votes. If an op wishes to vote for moer than three users, they may split votes in half using weak for for two users each. Only administrators will vote on the final page for opping. A lot of thought has gone into the voting process this time around (even more than last time!).--<<>> 21:01, 23 April 2007 (UTC)
Voting closed. it's April 26 in England, and Starnestommy told me it was ok to go ahead and close it now (seriously, though, I think we've gotten a good list of candidates at this point, so it should be good).--<<>> 00:50, 26 April 2007 (UTC)
For - I think that if I was a girl and living in Canada, not necessarily in that order, I would have probably be courting him now. ~ 08:56, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
For, because I already thought he was an admin before, and it would only make sense. --TKFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK 20:54, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
Nomination: been here for quite some time and puts a lot of effort into cleaning up Uncyclopedia through the VFD and such. Probably has three testicles. --Hotadmin4u69[TALK] 21:08, 23 April 2007 (UTC)
Three testicles is confirmed. —Braydie 21:10, 23 April 2007 (UTC)
What? /me counts testicles. Oh, right. Carry on then. SirCs1987UOTM.t.c 02:32, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
Before voting For Mordillo, I pondered as to whether or not we should let another Jew (see: Zombiebaron) take a powerful position in Uncyclopedia. But then I realized he had an awesome Ninjastar of David for a signature, and I was inclined to say yes. --Hotadmin4u69[TALK] 21:50, 23 April 2007 (UTC)
For. I think it's well-known that I admire this user, given my campaign to get him UotM.--<<>> 21:29, 23 April 2007 (UTC)
For, but they're all so good. Except that one bastard.../me looks in mirror. Oh, I can't stay mad at you!...But back on topic; OEJ is the best. He's got a World's Greatest Dad mug and everything. --SirModusoperandiBoinc! 23:14, 23 April 2007 (UTC)
For We need a relaxed admin for a change :) ~ 08:57, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
Nomination. Communism worked for Soviet Russia; it can work here too. Plus his moustache tickles when he kisses. --SirModusoperandiBoinc! 00:07, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
For. And that's my third vote. Don't be jealous, I love you all equal. -- herrdoktorneedsApistol[scream!] 02:32, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
Nomination & For - She reverts, she VFDs, she ICUs, yeah, she does pretty much everything here. She has also made more edits than anyone except Braydie for the past month. Seriously. SirCs1987UOTM.t.c 02:31, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
For the same reasons I think she is eligible for UotM. She's just all over the place. Plus, I have a grave suspicion that she smells better than Spang. ~ 08:59, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
For He already fits all of the requirements of being an admin, except the +sysop flag. --Starnestommy (Talk • Contribs • FFS • WP) 19:13, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
For. Whenenver I see some vandalism and get ready to revert it, Insinerate always beats me to the punch. --TKFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK 20:54, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
FOR, This man has been with me since the dawn of creation. We were the same amoeba, I split from him, and naturally we hit it off. Ever since then we've been together. I bared his children, he stayed with me during the helsinky episode of 1915, and lord remembers that. He taught me everything, and more. "I taught him everything he knows, and more" He told me that special day, and for that, he needs to be the president. Or what ever he got nominated for! -Paniking Undead 00:07, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
For e|m|c is one of the better writers here. He knows what's crap and what's not. --Starnestommy (Talk • Contribs • FFS • WP) 19:54, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
N&F He started an anti-vandalism, anti-crap, and user help group. He might as well be an admin. MarshalUncyclopedian!Talk to me! 03:01, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
For I will be helping Uncy, that's what matters.. But let the votes decide. If I am voted for, i'll do it. --High Gen. Grue 03:31, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
Against <HanSolo> If I become a sysop i'm gonna ban all of you ... Maybe he's not 'old' enough yet. He/she/it may be a nice person, but doesn't have what it takes and doesn't deserve it... yet, anyways. so sayeth Sliferjam ~ Talk*Sock*Jam*Gallery*Fearless Fosdick? 15:49, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
For. I think he'd be a good admin, since he's committed to stuff, er, something like that. yeah. --Math Poet 16:20, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
Against. Opping him would be kind of queue jumping; also, not sure he's ready for it yet. -- Sir CodeineK·H·P·B·M·N·C·U·Bu. · (Harangue) 18:56, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
Against - This person has about as much of a sense of humour as a corpse. He might have become a good WP admin, but not Uncyc. Dark Apostrophe(Click here to bitch. :)) 20:50, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
Nom and For. Lots of edits, lots of reverts and lots and lots of voting; general all round good guy who would benefit from the absolute POWARRRR extra admin functions. -- Sir CodeineK·H·P·B·M·N·C·U·Bu. · (Harangue) 15:01, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
For. i like him, so i thought i'd vote for him.--Math Poet 16:24, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
Nom and For. A generally nice guy, his articles are great and having spoken to him, he seems happy to chip in... I think :) --OliproAnchorKUN (Harass) 17:46, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
That's not how ya "!!!!!!1111!!!!", it's like: SQUIGGLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11111111111111!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!oneoneoneoneoneoneoneoneoneoneoneone. —Braydie 20:44, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
Miscasted votes/comments and other general insanity
Nomination. I haven't made my mind yet (Modus is also a strong candidate), so I'm just nominating for now.. For. Nov I've saw I have the right to two votes.
As I said in the edit summary, your nom counts as a for. You have three fors total.--<<>> 21:35, 23 April 2007 (UTC)
invalid nom: "only one nomination per user". This is really just a formality to make sure no one else does this. I'm pretty sure that someone else will nom OEJ soon.--<<>> 21:22, 23 April 2007 (UTC)
*Nom+for. Possibly the best thing that has happened on the site so far. He not only writes Fantastic articles, he also makes the site a generally better place to be. I honestly don't understand why is not a sysop, or even beauracrat already.--» >ZEROTROUSERS!!!EAT ME!!!!CRAZY PERSON!SMELLY!!!ILLOGIC, BEHOLD!!!!~» 06:39, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
*Braydie crosses another off the list* —Braydie 07:11, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
Invalid. "Don't nominate yourself".--<<>> 12:50, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
Nomination I nominate myself, in defiance of the nominating rules but in accordance with the Ignorable Policies policy. This is all based on the fact that I am more qualified than G.W. Bush or Dick Cheney, and look where they've gotten themselves! --Ekashp 03:41, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
That was quick! It was a joke nom to begin with, stemming from the IRC discussion that everybody on the list will advance to the next round of voting, as it sits currently. --Ekashp 04:04, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
Nomination suggestions from those who already nominated/voted
Tom Mayfair - zealous user, despite not writing so much - but this doesn't make any difference for an admin. -- herrdoktorneedsApistol[scream!] 23:50, 23 April 2007 (UTC)
(Raising finger with a Hellboy's blush) Me. Well, if Insineratehymn could do this and managed to receive votes... Actually, maybe not. We have stronger candidates - and too many of them. But, just in case I have a secret admirator... From Russia with love, HerrDok. -- herrdoktorneedsApistol[scream!] 17:54, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
Can we get more votes?
/me counts on fingers. Un, too, fwee just aren't enough. --SirModusoperandiBoinc! 02:38, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
You realise up there at the top it says "...all users receiving a nomination accompanied by at least two supporting votes will be transferred to a separate voting page where the entire community will be eligible to vote." So everyone nominated so far is going to be put to that second page for voting anyway. How many more votes can you need?
However, I also feel the need to point out that the rules also state: "Only administrators will vote on the final page for opping." So I wouldn't trust these rules too much. As much thought as Brad claims to have put into this voting system, it could have maybe done with a quick read-over before saving, eh? ;)
So some clarification there would be nice, though it makes sense that the next step in admin-only, so we can cherry pick those who were going to be opped all along. Also if everyone's going to be allowed to vote again, having a second round makes no sense in the first place, as it would be exactly the same as the first. Anyway, didn't we agree last time to agree on a voting system before the next sysopping vote? Perhaps we should do that after this one, this time. •Spang•☃•talk• 03:34, 25 Apr 2007
Hey, don't rain on my sunny day with your <airquotes>rules</airquotes> and <airquotes>logic</airquotes>. I just needed more votes to spread more love. Are you against love, Spang? --SirModusoperandiBoinc! 03:38, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
I get the feeling that this page was really just supposed to be a nominations page, and nobody was really supposed to get any more than three votes. Giving people additional votes now seems pointless. Leave that for the next round. SirCs1987UOTM.t.c 04:33, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
And nobody is giving against votes, which sucks and is completely insincere, but quite comprehensible. -- herrdoktorneedsApistol[scream!] 04:37, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
To elaborate; being a sysop is never about love. •Spang•☃•talk• 04:57, 25 Apr 2007
Um, yeah... About everyone being able to vote next round... I kinda copied this from the previous page where only ops could nom so um... yeah, I suck. I'm going to fix that now. Only ops will vote on the final vote.--<<>> 12:46, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
And regarding the "we'll op the people we were going to op anyway" thing, the reason we have this nom page first where all the users nom and give reasons is so that the users can bring up good ideas (like the one about Cs1987 being an Aussie, and us having a shortage of ops from that timezone). So it's not QUITE so conspiratorial as it probably should have been.--<<>> 12:53, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
Waitaminit...
From the rules above: "On April 26 all users receiving a nomination accompanied by at least two supporting votes will be transferred to a separate voting page where administrators will be eligible to vote on who we will op at this time." Two seems awfully low, considering that everyone's voting on admins right now. Is this another example of a bad copy-paste job or are we really going to transfer everyone over to the admin voting? —MajorSirHinoaprepare for trouble • make it double? 16:33, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
Well, I was going for people will support... if you think that's too little, or needs to be modified (like at least 25% of the leader) works, if you like that better. I'm cool with changing it. It WAS kinda what I was going with right now...--<<>> 16:41, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
How about the top four? And subtract one from everyone, because I'm too lazy to vote against everything, every time. SirFamine,Gun♣Petition»04/25 21:25
