Those new to the forums may have noticed a heavy pair of boots clicking their heels and the people wearing them are called "Notables". They are easily identified but their Gold Names and invariably (but with one exception perhaps) they tend to be popular characters on the forums.

One new Notable is voted in every three months and here's your chance to vote. BUT DON'T VOTE HERE. See Below.

This thread is to TALK ABOUT THE ELECTION.

One person has one vote. EVERYBODY (including Staff) can vote PROVIDING they were signed up before November 1st 2001. If you just arrived then you'll have to wait for next time - sorry.

Vote as two people and we will exclude you.
Vote more than once and we will exclude both votes.
Don't vote for the Notables.
Don't vote for a Newbie.
Don't vote for a Member of Staff.

You can only vote ONCE for a REGULAR.

What are we voting for:

The person who in your opinion has made the best OVERALL CONTRIBUTION to the forums.

How to vote?

Despite some very good suggestions we will have an open vote in a VOTE THREAD. Commencing NOW and closing at Midnight on November 22nd.

Those interested in being elected should start their campaigns. Good Luck.

Votes need to go in the voting thread, but I'll make sure this one does not get missed.

My first post for a few days, and possibly my last in a few days, unless time does me a few favours:

I vote for Goatboy.

He rules.

Not much more I can say.

Just for something relative to say i'll say this..

Do you think that the notable votes this time round kind of determine the next natable vote winners? You know second place winning it next time?

I know the people who voted the winner this time may vote someone else but it could be no?

Let's stop whining about Democracy and so on... look at it this way:

You put all the special reserve members in a room and ask who is going to vote... Let's assume that it's like General Election voting with a 50% turnout... so you have hlaf the room left to vote, lets say 24% vote for Goatboy and the rest vote for other people. Well that means you have allowed 24% to speak for the majority, which is not democracy. Obviously this applies more to America where George Bush is not speaking for the majority and it now looks like he didn't even win the election anyway. So what does all this mean...

Democracy isn't perfect but it is workable and so I would suggest, no, implore that you VOTE GOAT and make SR a better place.

You know, that looks a lot like you're saying the top three all have the same amount of votes. And if you call that a majority, I can believe you when you say your brain is on holiday ;)

Well, the second and third voted people have the same amount of votes as the first voted, so far.

I would call that a majority.
