About what a notable is. Just thought might be interesting for you to read. So you don't vote Edgy in ;)

ussell says:
same applies still - if I'm being talked about as a potential notable, why would I make up loads of new accounts and wriite crap on them?
Russell says:
it doesn't make sense from any perspective
Stryke and Guy Pearce says:
You wouldn't make the best notable, but you're still a good poster.
Stryke and Guy Pearce says:
Don't take this the wrong way though.
Russell says:
I won't - I admit, there are some posters light years ahead of me - Meka, pb etc
Stryke and Guy Pearce says:
No, you're a great poster on serious stuff. But you're not witty.
Russell says:
Anyway, I think its getting to the stage where the notables are there - to be honest, I think people like Pro Evo and Sniper shouldn't even be there
Stryke and Guy Pearce says:
Please don't take this the wrong way, cos I like you.
Stryke and Guy Pearce says:
Sniper is a gimp
Russell says:
It's ok, everyone's entitled to their own opinion.
Russell says:
As for new notables...natbuc?
Russell says:
Who hell?
Stryke and Guy Pearce says:
i know, I know..
Stryke and Guy Pearce says:
My name gets thrown around a bit at each election these days, but I stand no chance because I'm not a gamer.
Russell says:
my notables are - wookie/your honour, meka, pb, sonic
Stryke and Guy Pearce says:
Sonic, nah
Russell says:
the rest I don't really know or I don't think are worth it
Russell says:
you don't think Sonic's a notable?
Russell says:
surprising..
Stryke and Guy Pearce says:
My notables are: Goaty, SHEEPY (best notable), er-no, Meka, Mr Happy, Mr Nice Guy, RBS.
Stryke and Guy Pearce says:
Being notables not about long posts. It's about being funny.
Stryke and Guy Pearce says:
Oh, and YH
Russell says:
well that's your opinion - I think being funny isn't the be all and end all - Sonic is probably one of the most intelligent, and never spams
Stryke and Guy Pearce says:
Sonic, not spams?
Stryke and Guy Pearce says:
Sigh...
Russell says:
well, relative to teh others
Russell says:
I don't think I've ever seen Sheepy post a serious topic
Stryke and Guy Pearce says:
Exactly.
Stryke and Guy Pearce says:
monkey_man beat Sonic at the last election, and why?
Stryke and Guy Pearce says:
Because he was funny.
Stryke and Guy Pearce says:
Never serious in his life.
Russell says:
Well, undeniably it's an element, but I don't think it should determine the outcome.
Stryke and Guy Pearce says:
I think it should. Grix never makes me laugh. What the hells notable about him? Poncy love poetry? Bah. Sheepy and er-no have made me laugh out loud many times.
Russell says:
true, but I thought you likes Grix. Personally, I don't have much time for him.
Stryke and Guy Pearce says:
He's alright. Used to like him. But thats nothing to do with notability. People take it too seriously. I did at the Yh election. Turned into a gimp for the majority of it.
Russell says:
turned into?
Stryke and Guy Pearce says:
Notable = Someone who's witty. And it helps if they drink a lot. And have amusing tales about sex, like er-no does.
Russell says:
nah, only joking.
Stryke and Guy Pearce says:
Heh.

If you want, but it'll probably be accused of being Shaneo.

Vote Guy Pearce. The Vote Guy campaign would start rolling in about 2 weeks, but I'm going on holiday, so it won 't. Happeeeeeee, do it for me.

Actually, you are on my shortlist.


Damn, I just spilt coffee on it. Ah well, I'm sure the shopping list will compensate.

Can I vote for Coleman's Mustard?

I think only the staff and notables should be allowed to vote on the next notables.

All this voting and choosing people who may or may not deserve it just seems to get blown way out of proportion.

No idea who my vote's gonna be for. Being funny certainly isn't everything, because some things have to be taken seriously. I, like RM18, prefer a mixture, which is why I went for VenomByte in the previous election.

Humm...on the subject of bashing Grix, he's made me laugh many times during FOG Stories so just because he doesn't create 2-line topics full of supposedly 'funny' stuff about mullets and cats, or topics dissing mainstream films because they have well-known actors in them and great special effects, doesn't mean he doesn't deserve to be a Notable.

And why shouldn't people like Natbuc/Sonic be voted for? I'm not voting for Natbuc but if he likes games, and entertains people who like games then why shouldn't they vote for him? I enjoy gaming and of all the posts I've read Sonic's are the most entertaining on that particular subject. Just because they don't have amazing wit (not saying that they don't) or they don't go wild over low-budget foreign films like certain people, doesn't mean they shouldn't be Notable either.

Hey, I'm not particularly witty, I like mostly mainstream films, I like being serious sometimes and writing depressing stuff, and I'm a Christian who likes wrestling! You may as well just replace me now!!

*calms down*

There. My rant done, and I shall now go back to playing with the parfuminous pixie-dust.
