Apolyton Hall of Fame: August 2002 - Page 2

Jay Bee · August 16, 2002, 16:54

DarkCloud, next time please post an ad in the Spanish forum as well. We have some strong contenders in there. How long since your last post there?

Rasbelin · August 16, 2002, 18:27

This thread and Hall of Shame are still bloody useless. DarkCloud and the rest of you have just got me convinced about it. Is a HoS like this really a good way to have a good community spirit? This HoS is more fractionising the community than working as a uniting activity. Those who want to stick to this system of segregation may do that, but I'm going to avoid it as hell.

Down with this kind of oligarchy!

Ras: I think its time for your medication...

Rasbelin · August 16, 2002, 23:50

Hmmm... I guess your doze of heroine wasn't strong enough.

Since when has Apolyton tried to have a good community spirit?

Technically... it was a violation of site rules for him to post in the Civ III and Community Forum after posting in the OTF.

I did ask permission, you should note.

So... has the voting ended now, and what are the results if so?

DeepO- Chris62 and Sironikov won

I don't know about that- what if you all vote for each other?

Last post- sometime dos meses ago... All I could find were Civ II MP games going on... so I left.

Thank you ming.

Okay, just wondering so what is the consensus:

Post 1 in the OT, 1 in Community and 1 in Civ III
OR
1 in OT, 1 in spanish and 1 in Civ III

or something else?
[I suppose I shouldn't post in more than 3 places

ignore civ3, no one's been around long enough there to enter something called the hall of fame. they've been here less than a year

notyoueither · August 17, 2002, 21:33

Tsk, tsk, tsk. Such elitism H Tower.

Some of the Civ3 regulars have made ventures into OT. Some of them do a good job of it, unlike me.

DC, you should put a satellite thread in each major section of forums, in the busiest spa.. er focal points for discussion, like Civ3 General.

Skanky Burns · August 17, 2002, 23:49

Many of the newer generation started in Civ3, and have since migrated. Civ3 Gen should be included definately.

Rasbelin · August 18, 2002, 03:18

A silent protest...

Mods, please close this thread of these greedy capitalists that want oligarchy.

notyoueither · August 18, 2002, 03:52

I heard you.

look at my start date and you can probably guess where i started posting

Galvatron · August 20, 2002, 18:20

So you just need to have enough posts and get in the hall of fame? Ok I`m working on it

Well, hopefully they'll vote for someone like korn456 or Snowfire (unless he's already in, I must check) someone who worked on The List for Civ III...

By December some of them should be worthy.
I already noticed that gramphos, civman2000 and possibly Trip for their Demogame work, civ III stuff and/or civ stories things do deserve entrance into the hall... Perhaps they'll manage to get elected if I post in the Civ III section as none of them are OTers.

Immortal Wombat · August 21, 2002, 18:40

Snowfire and Yin are in.

I'm still waiting for a CtPer to get in. Locutus almost made it this round.

DarkCloud · August 21, 2002, 18:50

Locutus failed last round as well... I don't think he has that good a chance

But korn isn't in, and he deserves to be in. I vote for him as much as I can...

Nobody remembers that thing. Hell, start a poll on the Civ III thread "Do you remember who Theben was and what his contributions to Apolyton included?" Then list a bunch of different options, like "He was one of the original three administrators, but quit two years ago" and "He used to moderate the Stories forum before splitting away and founding ACOL", and somewhere in the twenty or so options bury in "He worked on the Civ III List." See what the results are. (Use any Threadmaster you like, but Bell and Theben are the only ones I remember very well, not counting migrates like Snowfire and Yin of course.)

Give yourself ten bonus votes (or something) for being "the guy who championed the dubious prospect of an Apolyton hall of fame," and give the bonus votes to Korn. I doubt that anybody will really mind.

Solver · August 22, 2002, 06:01

Actually if I get in, it's also a CtP community guy

.

Rasbelin · August 22, 2002, 11:08

And if I get in, I'm the first one to have a conspiracy against the Hall of Shame.

muxec · August 23, 2002, 07:49

Solver said that i could enter apolyton "hall of shame" or "hall of flame"

I asked you what will occur, if i post on forum my opinion about MarkG and Rah.

I could, but there would be outrage

Mostly held by whoever was bumped because of korn's votes

-
Yes, it's sad, the Civ III people hardly remember their elders.

I used to read the List for hours day upon day.

It was where I first heard of Imran, Theben, Bell, korn, yin, etc.
(I think even S. Kroeze had a few ideas

)
-
I think Bell was still posting as late as Dec 2000... I seem to remeber one or 2 posts by him, but don't remember much else.

Thanks for reminding me about Theben.
If anyone deserves to be in the Hall- it's Theben!

tniem · August 23, 2002, 19:39

So what were the results for those of us not visiting OTF on a regular basis?

Immortal Wombat · August 23, 2002, 19:42

18 posts upwards. Siro and Chris 62 got in.

Ribannah · August 24, 2002, 10:56

I will refuse any votes for me.

Thanks IW, had problems finding it in that post with all the winking going on.

Sirotnikov · August 24, 2002, 12:45

DinoDoc
Sprayber
Sikander

In an unusual step, I decided to vote for Sikander rather than korn469 (who does great in the Civ III area) to show my appriciation for his excellent posts.

Sirotnikov · August 24, 2002, 13:02

Ah, dang.

I dind't notice it on time.

DarkCloud · August 24, 2002, 13:54

Yes Sirotnikov, you are a bit late

But at least you got into the hall

Congratulations
