I was going to leave it up to Sticky to clarify, but this deserves more context, Stickymayhem made a joke that SoS took exception to.

I have a questions about the voting system.

Is there anyone that cannot vote?
What type of voting will this be (for example True Proportional representation with a single vote)?

Anyone who is banned cannot vote.

I'm thinking the easiest would be an initial vote, then holding a run off vote with the top 3 or so (depending on how the distribution ends up).

It was a joke that we found funny at the time but got out of hand pretty quick.

I never expected anyone to donate, but people are cool I guess.

paprika wrote:I'm fairly certain it also has to do with his indiegogo and 'le edit posters' shenanigans

It was entirely to do with the dumb comment I made. That wasn't a joke though.

Headmins can't "make" coderbus do anything.

Which is funny, since coderbus wants to be autonomous they shouldn't get any representation in adminbus in the slightest. They want representation? Lose some of that autonomy and you can get representation. I don't want some country in china to run my county when I can't do shit to affect them; so why the fuck do coderbus get to vote for a headmin?

It's my opinion that Sticky wouldn't be a good fit as head admin. There wasn't any single event that brought this about.

Posted: **Tue Oct 21, 2014 5:46 pm**

Might want to take a second look at some of the other candidates if you really feel that way SoS.

I nominate the guy who was playing Cuban Pete. I belive he is not banned.

Nomination period is over.

Posted: **Tue Oct 21, 2014 10:12 pm**

Cuban Pete is denied his rightful role as Headmin of SpaceMansStationTegee13, the voting has been set up! But fear not, because next time Cuban Pete will succeed!

Posted: **Wed Oct 22, 2014 12:51 am**

See the OP for when the vote(s) will be happening.

Admins are GMs, GMs generally haven't had much of a say over the actual content of the game.

In our case, gamemins and headmins are kinda limited in their powers, they don't control the code, they don't control the content of the game, they don't control the web site, they don't control the forums.

They control the game, or rather the round. They control the round, who's allowed to participate in it and how they are allowed to participate.

Posted: **Thu Oct 23, 2014 6:38 am**

Tle was head coder and head admin, pretty sure xsi was too

Posted: **Thu Oct 23, 2014 7:03 am**

Admins deal with the card's they are given, coders/mappers are the one's to decide on game content.

The only real stop there is if SoS decides to not update the server files.

This is what occurs when you separate the departments/areas into separate entities. There are advantages, but the disadvantage is that game balance is held in the hands of a small group that don't have to actually associate themselves with the server (Even though for all intents and purposes they are).

Read the notice on the main web page or the OP...

Anyways, on the subject of coders and representation. Admins are almost always the first ones to sound the alarm on negatively game changes. I would think that with SoS giving his choice to the coders that he's hoping to have the coders be held more accountable, but also have more input beyond just what they code.

Hidden until run off vote.

Posted: **Sat Oct 25, 2014 1:30 pm**

So where DO we vote? It's not that clear... or maybe I'm just not that awake yet...

Nevermind, just worked it out. In-game poll. Log in to the game to play vote

So perhaps a complete separation of powers is what is needed.

Because that happened before, we lost two forums, literally all of coderbus at least three times and most of the good admins.

Integrated power structure 2015.

Round 1 unofficial results:

Code: Select all

+-------+-------------+
| votes | candidate   |
+-------+-------------+
|    45 | AN0n3       |
|    41 | Bluespace   |
|    39 | Ikarrus     |
|    39 | Hornygranny |
|    23 | Pandarsenic |
|    13 | MisterStaub |
|     4 | Comrade Leo |
+-------+-------------+

Per-request i will be running a query to detect and ignore multiple votes by one user and will be updating this with the results.

A run off vote is currently queued to run with the top 4 people, and will show up in the game server once sos adds it.

Posted: **Mon Oct 27, 2014 5:33 am**

Wow, that's a lot of votes for just the weekend, I'm impressed. I'm betting on an0n3/ikarrus/HG which is not that bad of a headmin team the more I think about it. They're all super oldfag.

Posted: **Mon Oct 27, 2014 5:39 am**

EDIT: Whoops I think I misconstrued what you're talking about.

If you're talking about a TOTAL prediction of

Player vote: AN0n3
Admin vote: Ikarrus
Coder vote: HornyGranny

Then yeah I can see that happening and working out really well.

Posted: **Mon Oct 27, 2014 5:48 am**

I'd like to formally request that anyone who voted for me vote for Ikarrus in the runoff.

Posted: **Mon Oct 27, 2014 6:25 am**

Toss the democracy out we already got good results.

Posted: **Mon Oct 27, 2014 7:16 am**

Go Team Oldfag!

Posted: **Mon Oct 27, 2014 8:08 am**

Looks like I have a shot.
Bluespace for a better future!

Posted: **Mon Oct 27, 2014 8:12 am**

If only this was glorious preferences based voting it would already be sorted, oh well.

Posted: **Mon Oct 27, 2014 8:15 am**

I stand by my opinion that voting for bluespace is a bad idea.

Posted: **Mon Oct 27, 2014 12:40 pm**

I stand by my opinion that voting for Ikkarus is voting for heavy handed "roleplay" and "play my way" administration.

Hornygranny is HBL v2.

Bluespace wont get any respect from anyone in current administration and will have little impact.

Also find it hilarious that out of 7 candidates 4(!) are going to second round. Over half. Democracy ho, that tied vote.

Posted: **Mon Oct 27, 2014 1:17 pm**

I included Pandarsenic's endorsement in the candidate list. If Staub and Leo would like to endorse anyone please let us know soon.

Posted: **Mon Oct 27, 2014 1:30 pm**

I offer no endorsements, but I will say in the interests of both the admin team and playerbase, of which their respective headmins are meant to represent, do not vote HG for player headmin and create a coderbus majority over all headmin decisions.

Posted: **Mon Oct 27, 2014 4:03 pm**

Well, technically speaking we aren't sure it's a two-way tie for 3rd.

If even one person used a second ckey to vote for either candidate twice it breaks the tie and we'll have a proper runoff between the top 3.

Hell for all we yet know all of my votes could've come from a very enthusiastic Tonto.

Posted: **Mon Oct 27, 2014 6:31 pm**

Vote for Ikarrus if you were going to vote for me, I am bowing out.

Posted: **Mon Oct 27, 2014 8:52 pm**

>39 votes for HG

I don't even.
