The 1.3 Community Project / Re: Poll for Story Writing
December 14, 2009, 02:51:24 AM
The reason why I have it set to be nominations and not volunteers is so that people need to have a pretty solid reason for nominating someone.

For instance, I could nominate you right now, based on the fact that you seem to be pretty level-headed and would be good at playing devil's-advocate.  I won't nominate you, though, simply because I'm running the thing.  If someone else would like to nominate you, based on those two opinions, it would be accepted.

People don't have to have a long, drawn out reason why.  It just should be meaningful.  Also, there is absolutely nothing stopping someone from asking another person to nominate them.

The 1.3 Community Project / Nominations Thread
December 14, 2009, 01:44:57 AM
Post your nominations for who you want to see in the new story committee.  Anyone can be nominated, but you cannot nominate yourself.  When nominated, I will add the nominee's name to this thread and PM them to see if they would like to be on the committee.  If they accept and are vetted by the modding leaders, the name will be moved to "Accepted."  If the nominee declines or is not accepted by the modding leaders, they will be moved to the "Rejected/Declined" section.

Please do not use this thread to discuss nominees.  If someone thinks that a nominee shouldn't be accepted, for whatever reason,

You can nominate more than one person, but please try to use one post, unless you decide to nominate someone after someone has posted in the thread.

If someone is already nominated, accepted, or rejected, please do not resubmit the name.  It will not increase their chances of being accepted.  If anything, it will just annoy the people deciding who is accepted.

Requirements for nominations:
  • Nominee Name
  • Why they should be in the committee.

    I will not automatically reject a nominee based on my opinion of them.  Everyone will get due process.

    Nominated:
    Iron Maiden
    Mr X
    VSMIT
    General Black Dragon
    AHadley
    Zero Angel

    Accepted:

You can nominate anyone, but cannot nominate yourself (hence the "not volunteers" part).

Ok.  What ZA's proposing is what's happening.  No more polls, there will be a thread for nominations (Stress nominations, not volunteers).  Nominees will have the opportunity to decline if they so choose.  If they accept, their name will be circulated around the CP leaders, and a final decision will be made as to their standing in the committee.

Any objections?

Hey, if you're finally done with the story for aRc, does that mean that we can actually start doing stuff on it now?

And I don't think that approach would work well with a CP.  We knew going in that aRc was going to take a really, really, long time.  If we take our time with it like we did with aRc, people will lose interest before we have anything to show.

OM's finalized (I think) his reverter.  You just have to provide proof of ownership or proof of consent from the original creator.

Also known as Veary.  He's been recently banned from the IRC channel.

Adjusting mouse sensitivity under Options\Play helps with the turning.
Didn't do much for me... :-(

Oy, I don't moderate willy-nilly.  The only thing I changed in this thread was the poll to get rid of the unnecessary entries that just made it longer.

Stop the voting until we figure out what's actually going to happen with this project?

Yes?  Yes.
#43
If we were to do this, the third option is definitely the best.  We'd need to make sure that it is impartial, though.

So VSMIT, what your saying is that I am pretty much stupid because I did not see Clavin's models for what you think it is? Do you have something against me seeing someones model differently? I simply got a different impression of the model when I first saw it and now see the resemblance now that I know which way it is susposed to go.
Usually when someone posts a picture of a ship they create, they post a picture of the front of it.  And where have you seen a ship where the front is higher than the back?  I'm not calling you stupid.  I'm calling you unobservant.

Did not remind me of either because the ship went the other way, in that the two talons were engines.
Hey, man, what are you smoking?  Play FE again, then re-enter this conversation.
