I would imagine that vote assignment is permanent.
Really? But I would have done things differently if this was mentioned in the first post, or had I of gotten an answer the day I asked. Is that a definite "no"?
Well then you shouldn't have voted and asked the question in the same post.

Here's the deal with vote assignment - you can always assign more votes to people, but you can't take away votes. Stughalf can assign five votes to Alec and then 10 to Thuryl two days later, as long as he doesn't take away those five from Alec.

I propose that all other candidates shift their votes to me. I desire to be a moderator so that I can have the title Blademaster. My cause is clearly the most noble and most beneficial to the most people.

*Sigh*

Alright, fair enough, so it is my own fault; lesson learned.

The funny thing is the votes were originally elsewhere, so technically I should have to put it back the way it was :P

On the internet, nobody knows you're an invertibrate. Specific racism is as much of a problem as you choose to make it.

People named Alex clearly need better representation on the boards. Although, I have to wonder, what does racial representation have to do with moderating? It's not like the mods take race into account when they lock a thread or give a warning.

You've been taking some of the things I've been saying a bit too seriously, Alex. :P You're quite right that my race shouldn't and won't affect my moderating work.

As I am a diligent reader of signatures, I have noted that Alorael is purple rather than white. Rather than insult him by questioning the veracity of the statement, I simply accept it.

As such, my advice would be for Alex to call upon purple and white brothers for moderatorial assistance.

Not being purple, I cannot call upon the purple people to aid me. I also think that perhaps Alo should fear Smuckers, lest he be made into purple goo.

And the race divide is exposed as the crippling effect it surely is. You will wait, alone and fearful of further insult ladden statements, for a white brother, rather than reach for the extended, and goo-laden, hand of the moderator of the hour.

Shame. Shame.

Unless you have a medical condition which requires you to avoid purple goo. I mean Alorael. Oh whatever. Go back and re-read the naked thuryl thread again.

Oh, but how do you know that Zeviz isn't going to decide to have some fun and give all his votes to Alec? :P

By the way, if any candidates are interested, I have at least 24 votes for sale. :)

With the remaining 3 toprunners, the chief remaining concern is that the winner will have time to act in a timely manner for the forseeable future and will step back rather than cling to his task when he is under temporary overload.
Am i right, or can you, Aran, Stug, and Thuryl imagine a situation on the forum when you would not act in a similar way - except dependent on the time you have available in your personal schedule?

I object. Any short-term concerns that you may have concerning my schedule or my free time will be over by the time the final round of the election even commences, as you well know. :rolleyes: Read: I'll have my exam prep done in time, so don't you pesker me with it here.

I don't take kindly to implied threats about being turned into goo. Reread the CoC. That's an infraction and will be treated as such.

I am sorry, if I may have appeared to pesker anybody - honestly, I did not mean too.
I was just curious whether our three great candidates - the spiderweb community may be proud of all three, imho - perceive themselves as being as similar as I did - with differences being more of a technical nature.
I still consider to vote in the final round, BTW, if this is allowed for anybody who skipped the first because I did get a little wiser meanwhile.
