dst Posted June 19, 2010 Author Report Posted June 19, 2010 Ok, I had not made the poll before because i don't want THIS kind of poll. And I had no time for it. But I don't want a secret voting. I want a plain sight one. So, tomorrow (when I will have the time) I will make another topic where you can vote by posting. Just one name from the list. Show you care and you don't vote just because this is another pretty poll that can be voted for. Kyphis the Bard 1

Using a poll system like this is much simpler and easier for everyone to read rather than reading a hundred single name posts and writing down each name with how many people posted them just to see who is winning.[/color]
dst Posted June 19, 2010 Author Report Posted June 19, 2010 You will not need to read anything except the first post.. After a while (a period of time that we'll decide) I will count the votes.

[/quote] [color="#006400"]What if that person wants to know it right then and there during the middle to see if its even worth it, to vote for the person they want, if there is no chance of that person to be chosen with all the votes? Its just simpler to keep it in poll. Saves everyone the trouble and you the extra work.[/color]
dst Posted June 19, 2010 Author Report Posted June 19, 2010 (edited) Blind voting leads to abuses. And you cannot see the votes BEFORE you vote for yourself. ps: I am not afraid of hard work. I am just lazy LE:my bad. Rendril is right. But if you see the votes before you can't vote anyway... Edited June 19, 2010 by dst
Rendril Posted June 19, 2010 Report Posted June 19, 2010 (edited) Is it not possible to see who voted after you cast your own vote? Edit: A seen vote would have less "abuses"? Edited June 19, 2010 by Rendril

You can see votes without voting, but once you voted its permanent. ((Just look at the voting options on the poll.))[/color]
Shadowseeker Posted June 19, 2010 Report Posted June 19, 2010 Assuming you aren't a mod yes. Well, the issue is, this way of voting can be easily accessed by forum alts. So if you think its really safe to go this way...I can also count the votes if needed in another topic, if anyone thinks dst is too involved to be the mod there.
Root Admin Chewett Posted June 19, 2010 Root Admin Report Posted June 19, 2010 Voting abuse by alts will lead to serious punishments Thats all i have to say Kyphis the Bard 1
VertuHonagan Posted June 19, 2010 Report Posted June 19, 2010 [color="#006400"]Well. To even have an alt you have to have that character in game from what I read of the forum rules. So there shouldn't be too much abuse. [/color]
Kyphis the Bard Posted June 20, 2010 Report Posted June 20, 2010 [quote name='Darigan' date='18 June 2010 - 07:00 PM' timestamp='1276848028' post='62172'] Well then how about you Kyphis? you fit all the criteria. [/quote] [quote name='dst' date='18 June 2010 - 08:01 PM' timestamp='1276851671' post='62181'] Kyphis is too popular but I would vote for him nevertheless. [/quote] While I appreciate the consideration, and I am flattered that people would (and have) vote for me, I have no intention of performing this role either in the near or distant future. As such, I would appreciate being removed from the poll. (Also, Grido, you forgot to put Yoshi's name into the poll. Quite a few people want to vote for him)
dst Posted June 20, 2010 Author Report Posted June 20, 2010 So...new voting thread: http://magicduel.invisionzone.com/topic/7336-sunny-bedrrom-voting-thead/ Now, we need a time frame. 1 week? 2 weeks?
Fyrd Argentus Posted June 20, 2010 Report Posted June 20, 2010 (edited) While I appreciate the nomination, and would perform the duty honorably, I am just one player and could dissappear like Elthan. Similarly, the Poll, while nice, is flawed in that it is going to pick one person. We need to find a durable system. Spin it off permanent institutions - either the LHO or the Kings need to be able to magically "fetch" the keys and give them to the (temporary) designated holder. I propose that the Kings vote to select an acceptable neutral administrator and that LHO be given the power to implement the will of the Kings. No tie breaker needed -- if they can't agree on a neutral, let it ride. Edited June 20, 2010 by Fyrd Argentus Kyphis the Bard, dst and apophys 2 1
dst Posted June 20, 2010 Author Report Posted June 20, 2010 (edited) [u][b]Merged posts![/b][/u] So what? Now we cannot make our own decisions without the kings? And LHOs have already a job! Giving them more responsibilities will not help. 1 week it's fine by me. If nobody wants something different then shall be it. Edited June 28, 2010 by dst
dst Posted June 28, 2010 Author Report Posted June 28, 2010 As I already announced in the voting thread:the voting is over. Winner (according to the votes) is Miq. Can someone double check me please?
Yoshi Posted June 28, 2010 Report Posted June 28, 2010 [quote name='apophys' date='28 June 2010 - 10:43 AM' timestamp='1277736217' post='62857'] Yep, you counted right. Miq 14, Yoshi 13. [/quote] Why do you have to rub it in!?! D: Nah I'm just kidding I still find it amusing that nobody even asked me if I wanted the keys in the first place. XD Gratz Miq. Kyphis the Bard and Fenrir Greycloth 2
Miq Posted June 28, 2010 Report Posted June 28, 2010 Let me just express my quite big amazement of your vote. *bows* Thank you, I would have never guessed.
