Re: Spring 2012 CM Elections: Results

Only about a 500th of all scratchers even USE the forums, so it's impossible to have more than half.

Outts the about 1100 people that use the forums, most active scratchers and very interested new scratchers voted. Which comes out to about 650

Re: Spring 2012 CM Elections: Results

Good points…I would note that as someone who really doesn’t comment to blogs much (in fact, this may be my first post), I don’t think the term “lurker” is very becoming to a non-posting reader. It’s not your fault at all, but perhaps the blogosphere could come up with a better, non-creepy name for the 90% of us that enjoy reading the posts.

Hey Carly1101,

I've never referred to people who read posts and don't comment lurkers and I've never heard the term. Also, this isn't blogging site (which is probably why I've not heard the term). How about "Creepers"? I think that sounds kinda cool, you sit there, watching... waiting... then suddenly your rush up and explode, destroying whatever it was I was working on in minecraft. That's what we're talking about, right? I think I've lost the thread a little and become off-topic, so Sci, I only just realised that the weird thing on the right of your signature is a 4!

Lol, you just realized?!
I notice you updated your sig to say how you won, in a most inconspicuous way. (I'm not being sarcastic. Really.)

My mom got a reply email from the ST, saying they'll call later! I'm so excited! I even looked up Boston area codes so I would know.  tongue

Sparks, Lucario, you know when you'll start?

I don't really see it as winning, I didn't see it as a competition and I don't feel there were any losers either, those who didn't get voted through are still able to help out on the forums which is what I continued to do after not getting the place after the last elections  smile  I really liked my signatures and wanted to keep them, though I obviously couldn't keep them as campaign banners, so I just changed them a bit. If removing your campaign banners is a subtle indication that I'm not campaigning any more, then yes, that's what happened  tongue

I actually got a call from Amos on Friday, the day after the elections and we had a nice chat. He didn't speak to my parents though since I'm 19. He's a cool guy so you should look forward to the call  smile

All I know is that we start some time this week when you and Lucario have been contacted properly  smile
