Done some cleaning. The latter half was terrible, so I've scrapped it. The conclusion needs the narrator to become more self-obsessed, until he finally admits that you will never be as cool as him. Anyone want to finish it, feel free and it can become half a CW entry for us both. Otherwise I'll get to it later this week. Pup 12:43 14 Mar '12

Yay EGAOEITDOM! An award created by Rangeley which encourages recordings of UnNews articles has rewarded some great recordings. SPIKE put in well over a year providing voice to uncy's news department. It's been dormant for awhile, but it shall, at some point, return in full glory and give voice to the events of our time (and VFD is shirley not the place to destroy a long-established and multi-winner award).

There's been less emphasis on the recording aspect of UnNews and more focus on writing lately. This isn't bad, but it's had the unfortunate consequence of obseletizing the EGAoEitDoM. I've proposed we retire this aard because of its irrelevance in the past before, and now it's far less active than it was even back then, when it was still significantly inactive. It hasn't been edited since November of 2011, and even back when we (read: SPIKE) were creating recordings en masse, the result was often amateurish and hokey. Let's retire this officially, already. --TKFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK 03:40, March 2, 2012 (UTC)

That has got to be the worst line of reasoning I've ever seen on this entire site, focusing on an extremely unlikely "what-if" scenario instead of staying in fucking reality. I tip my hat to you, sir. What the fuck has this place come to. –SirSkullthumper,MD(criticize•writings•formspring) 23:44 Mar 03, 2012
Sycamore pointed out in his Keep vote that most computers have mikes now. Mine doesn't or I'd record some. Recording UnNews just has to catch on again and at some point there would be very creative entries, so I don't see why saying so is a stretch. Aleister 13:30 4-3-'12
If you really feel like defending this award's continued activity, then buy a microphone and actually be active. Right now your vote is rooted entire in implausibility and nostalgia for an era that never existed. --TKFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK 22:18, March 4, 2012 (UTC)
Sycamore: It hasn't been edited for 4 months. If this page were an admin, people would be railing for its removal pretty soon. I appreciate your's and Aleister's optimism, but that's really all it is. Pretty empty optimism on an award that serves a function that no longer is a focus on this site, for better or worse. Keeping it around as "active" is more or less a charade. --TKFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK 21:07, March 2, 2012 (UTC)
As Sycamore and I pointed out, it's had it's day, it's taking a well-earned rest, and it will come roaring back at some point. Everyone who has ears should take a listen to Dexter and Mrthejazz present this piece of hard news to see that UnNews readers have a wide field to play in. Maybe this "nom" (and awards removed on VFD? Huh?) will get people interested in making recordings again. Yay! memory of SPIKE! Aleister 23:53 2-3-'12 p.s. Nobody put a VFD tag on the page, so I did (under protest that an established award should not be huffed on VFD. Huh?) and corrected the clock.
Thank you, Aleister. The rest of you, learn to follow procedure, damn it! Oh, and there is indeed precedent for using VFD to close such things, BUT YOU STILL NEED TO FOLLOW PROCEDURE and tag the things properly. Thank you. 1234~03:06, 3 March 2012
What precedent? What long long established award won 42 times has been huffed on VFD? I still say that this is an invalid nom considering the requirements for VFD, and considering that very few people come to VFD (and so this is hidden among the weeds) and that it should be left as is at a minimum or taken to a forum page. So, what precedent? Thanks. Aleister 23:32 3-3-'12
Lyrithya only cites PoopSmith Lounge as a precedent, which was part of this page and isn't at the same level as a long-established award won 42 times. So LLPOF, NALAATW. Aleister 13:15 4-3-'12

If this is archived, where will the page be moved to? Pup 02:55 04 Mar '12
MrN Closes This Shit Well, this has been here for ages so I'm going to offer a solution which I hope is the right thing to do. I feel totally neutral about this one as I can understand it from both viewpoints, and I hope the guys who want this kept totally active will understand my judgement.... Having read what some of the "keep" voters are saying I think perhaps people thought the award might be deleted completely or maybe moved somewhere. That's not going to happen. All wiki links to this award will also stay where they are. Nothing is going to change other than the page being sysop protected and "Temporarily Suspended". But... we can open it again in the future if we have enough people to make a contest of it. Until then it's still there as an advert to encourage people to get on the mic. If you wanted this kept totally open as it was before I stuck my ugly spanner into the works I suggest you try putting forward a convincing argument in the Village Dump (which is probably where this should IMO have been discussed in the first place).
