Apolyton Hall of Fame Voting - Page 2

Yes a base for the next one or the one after that. Get the top ones in and off the list, and others can take advantage. EVEN though I think carrying over votes is STUPID>.

Ming · May 14, 2003, 15:59

I think it is too... it has allowed some people to get in who probably might not have. So, the only thing to do is take advantage of the same rules

ColdWizard · May 14, 2003, 16:05

I voted for oedo, scouse gits and War4

War4ever · May 14, 2003, 16:17

how many votes/ points do you need to get in??

rah · May 14, 2003, 17:29

somewhere around 95 points at last check.

You were around 50, so maybe on the next one. It helps that when most of the old timers vote, it's 4 points apiece

War4ever · May 14, 2003, 18:48

yeah but like you said, if we dont' vote as a consensus...noone gets in...the aussies just aren't team players i guess

i am more than happy to take it for the team this time, next time whatever to help vote peeps in

hopefully we can coordinate it better..b/c last time it didnt' work either

Ming · May 14, 2003, 19:01

They may change the rules to give current HOF members 5 votes... every little bit helps

War4ever · May 14, 2003, 20:54

so do the votes from two elections carry over, or are they carried over from last vote due to being the carry over from the previous vote?

does this make sense....

DrSpike · May 15, 2003, 06:25

If it makes you happier I don't get it either War.............I thought the first post in the thread contained carried over votes and then new votes were added on at the end. But there are other brackets to denote subtotals.........perhaps these are from even older votes?

rah · May 15, 2003, 08:13

It seems that previous votes never seem to go away. Silly. It means that a person can be elected by being voted for by the same 8 people over 5 or 6 months. Just plain silly.

Agreed. But since you will rarely be able to get enough votes together for MP'ers such as War to beat the OT'ers it works pretty much in your favour.

rah · May 15, 2003, 09:01

Yes, it could, since the four winners had a good carryover vote

1. Trip- (45) 66---110
2. DinoDoc- (68) 24---92
3. Paul- (50) 39---89
4. Zylka- (38) 43---81

But besides trips 66 votes this time. (and that was due to On-topic voters, the other winners didn't have more than 43 current votes. Most current MP's are original members getting 4 votes each. All it would take is 10 of us to get 40 votes. Not too hard at all.

War4ever · May 15, 2003, 10:36

ah, so maybe i have a shot NEXT time then....

rah · May 15, 2003, 10:45

If not then, then the time after. But we need to get the vote out. Since Paul finally made it, we can do Oedo, you and Berz

War4ever · May 15, 2003, 10:47

or maybe one of the aussies to conjure up some of their support...i am all for supporting someone to get them in if the favour is returned....

if you know what i mean ?

rah · May 15, 2003, 10:55

Yeah, only AH is currently in if IIRC. I'd like to see all the old time MPers in. So anything that can help that happen is good by me.

War4ever · May 15, 2003, 10:58

well we need to organize it then, the last two times have been free for alls...and noone gets in that way...MPers are at a major disadvantage if they are not big OTFers.....

rah · May 15, 2003, 11:00

Paul got in this time. So CIVII old timers can make it. But I agree that we need to be more coordinated.

RAH

War4ever · May 15, 2003, 11:02

did you see what my totals were ? i missed them..and do you only need 80 points to get in?

rah · May 15, 2003, 11:05

This time 81 was the lowest to get in. Everytime it's different, but 80 is probably a good threashold to shoot for. You're currently sitting at 50. SO it shouldn't take that much next time.

War4ever · May 15, 2003, 11:29

kewl thanks for the update.... hm....30 points...that doesn't seem like alot 6 old timers

with new voting system

rah · May 15, 2003, 11:34

Yeah, but others in the mix have been getting up there too, so more than 80 may be needed.

War4ever · May 15, 2003, 11:35

damm...and they only take the top 4?

DrSpike · May 15, 2003, 11:42

Well you can't let everyone in because *then* it would be silly.

rah · May 15, 2003, 12:18

Yeah but the people at the top get in, so it leaves room for the next highest.

Glad you liked it.............thought it might bomb since subtle irony is kinda hard to do in post form.

War4ever · May 15, 2003, 13:51

its all in the delivery spike..... or in the audience

Aussies never go for this hall of fame crap as the voting is always rigged.
