[01:34] <Rayquaza2233> We voted on who won the contest.
01[01:35] <Providence> I never really thought my nomination would be seen by anyone but the person I submitted it to
01[01:35] <Providence> hahahaha
[01:35] <Rayquaza2233> there's approximately one mod that talks casually to the community on the forums and on IRC and you know I won't tell anyone.
01[01:35] <Providence> Yeah, I know
01[01:36] <Providence> was mine tearjerking?
01[01:36] <Providence> 2 thumbs up by Ebert and Roeper?
[01:36] <Rayquaza2233> Would've won if the entire thing wasn't covered in bureaucracy.
01[01:36] <Providence> That'd have been cool
[01:37] <Rayquaza2233> You got nominated too.
[01:37] <Rayquaza2233> XD
01[01:37] <Providence> honestly, I just wanted her to have it because I know she doesn't really get to celebrate Christmas like most people
01[01:37] <Providence> I know, she nominated me
01[01:37] <Providence> xd
[01:37] <Rayquaza2233> Eos basically said outright "ok providence is not winning this competition under any circumstances"
01[01:38] <Providence> You mean the nomination that I wrote?
01[01:38] <Providence> or the one about me
[01:38] <Rayquaza2233> Rick basically said outright "ok sarah is not winning this competition under any circumstances"
[01:38] <Rayquaza2233> The one about you.
01[01:38] <Providence> hahaha
[01:38] <Rayquaza2233> Someone nominated GREG
01[01:38] <Providence> XD
01[01:39] <Providence> I didn't know Rick and Sarah didn't get along
[01:39] <Rayquaza2233> Yeah, the Germans and Jews "didn't get along"
01[01:39] <Providence> woahhh
01[01:39] <Providence> That's why they never speak to each other on irc hahah
[01:40] <Rayquaza2233> the amount of pull Rick has is insane, I have next to no idea how that happened.
01[01:40] <Providence> jeez
[01:40] <Rayquaza2233> He's basically the chief of moderation.
[01:40] <Rayquaza2233> Pretty much the only reason Mark isn't banned.
01[01:41] <Providence> That's kinda messed up though, and I'm not saying anything about Rick
01[01:41] <Providence> but it shouldn't come down to your own feelings about the user
[01:41] <Rayquaza2233> There's two reasons why Rick is a mod now, and I'm one of them.
[01:41] <Rayquaza2233> I should've never brought it up.
01[01:41] <Providence> you actually do a good job maintaining a lack of bias
[01:42] <Rayquaza2233> I try to, anyway.
[01:42] <Rayquaza2233> So does Bentuar, so does XL.
1[01:42] <Providence> Yeah
[01:43] <Rayquaza2233> Sadly only one of us actively gives out infractions.
01[01:43] <Providence> I didn't even know Eos disliked me XD
01[01:43] <Providence> I thought he was just like that with everyone
[01:43] <Rayquaza2233> ...
[01:43] <Rayquaza2233> And when he does post it's to destabilize the forums by railing against me half the time, since I've been Admin, so he certainly gets no support from me.
[01:43] <Rayquaza2233> This is what he thinks of you.
01[01:44] <Providence> ...when do I do that?
[01:44] <Rayquaza2233> And this is what Rick thinks of Sarah.
[01:44] <Rayquaza2233> I didn't vote Sarah because it's favourite Southperrian, not favourite person on Southperry. While Sarah does a lot of things here, I actually believe she does it because she doesn't sleep and needs something to do in the meantime. She has said on several occasions that the majority of Southperry don't matter in the slightest to her. Sarah's a cool person, Zelkova is a better Southperrian.
[01:44] <Rayquaza2233> You did it like, once.
[01:44] <Rayquaza2233> Eos also vetoed you winning the most heartfelt nomination award too.
01[01:45] <Providence> haha, what an ass
[01:45] <Rayquaza2233> He holds grudges, that's basically what it boils down to,
[01:45] <Rayquaza2233> Eos and Rick are alike so Rick rises to the top of Eos's favour.
[01:46] <Rayquaza2233> We're nowhere near as bad as SW management was but we're getting there.
01[01:46] <Providence> I'm not sure that Rick was even right in that situation, either
01[01:46] <Providence> last I checked, it specifically claimed not to be a popularity contest
[01:46] <Rayquaza2233> Eos said the same thing.
[01:46] <Rayquaza2233> Or no, Talia did.
01[01:46] <Providence> and asked only for the "best reason"
01[01:46] <Providence> Exactly
01[01:47] <Providence> That's sad, then
01[01:47] <Providence> I guess keep up the good fight
[01:48] <Rayquaza2233> I need Bentuar for that and he's busy all the time >:(
01[01:48] <Providence> :\
[01:49] <Rayquaza2233> XL and I could plot a coup d'etat or something, he lives maybe 20 minutes away from where I live on weekdays.
[01:49] <Rayquaza2233> clearly the best option.
01[01:49] <Providence> hahaha
01[01:50] <Providence> I'd like to think things were never that sneaky before
01[01:50] <Providence> Fiel was open with goings-on
01[01:50] <Providence> as was Isaac
[01:51] <Rayquaza2233> I never did end up on Fiel's good side so I can't comment.
01[01:52] <Providence> Ah well, c'est la vie
01[01:52] <Providence> Maria is cool nonetheless
01[01:57] <Providence> kinda sucks to know that regardless of whatever amount of time one puts into trying to make a place just a little bit more sane, they can be so easily discarded
[01:58] <Rayquaza2233> Well, ignored.
[01:59] <Rayquaza2233> Not so much discarded, that's more what Sleepywood does when someone crosses Adura.
