The "Freeola Customer Forum" forum, which includes Retro Game Reviews, has been archived and is now read-only. You cannot post here or create a new thread or review on this forum.
It's about that time again.
Most of you know how it works by now, but for those who don't - every three months (or so ;)) we hold an election to promote one of our regular members to Notable status. Notable is a position to honour that user's contributions to UKchatforums.com - they don't get any further rights or abilities within the forum, but their status is changed and their name is written in gold to draw the eyes, respect and jealousy of the purple Regulars.
On the day (Thursday 11th August), an official thread will be started by a staffie (most likely me) where every Regular member and Notable will have one vote to cast for who they want to see elevated to such a lofty status. Newbies and JATs will be unable to vote I'm afraid.
Last election we also held a vote to demote someone from their position of notable back down to regular - while this went well, we've not yet decided whether to continue this new, possibly cruel addition to the elections. If you have any thoughts on this, let us know here and we'll make a decision before the day is due.
Til then, mark 11/8/05 in your diaries and make sure you're here for what may be the most important vote you'll ever make.

Bah, I've been voted in as a notable twice (refused the first time). If I get demoted, I don't see making it a third time as a problem. Haven't posted anything of interest in the last few years due to having a job and a lif...well, a job.

We were also just discussing setting up an email address to have a closed voting system, but thought that a) you'd abuse our email address with spam and b) you'd never believe the results.
You're probably right.
Vote KT.

Yes, but FM is a real person that actually exists.
It's funny, there was a lot more resistance last time round to the voting off idea, but clearly you all want to carry on doing it. That's cool. I like Snug's idea of Notables voting off one of their kind, but think that there's just too few of you to make the competition very interesting.
Not seen any electioneering yet, mind.
Vote Pedro.

Woah, Ros is the original person from Hull. She is not allowed to be voted off.
Election day is interesting. People that haven't posted for weeks suddenly pop up out of nowhere.
I voted for KT last time.
He didn't like it, thought I was being all 'ironic'. :(

Im going to vote for SMV
it should be about the quality of posts remember, even if the person only posts 10 times a month.
