Flame Warrior changes

[Joni]

I have been inundated with questions regarding the Flame Warrior system.

Firstly: Individual votes are removed after four months.

After a Nomination is two weeks old, it will be deleted if there are ever 0 votes.


As mentioned: postbit scroll is removed after one month but now if you get the 10 votes to win the FW nomination and your avatar and user title changes, you will not be able to change them back until your votes fall below 10. – We are working on streamlining things. For now that is how it is. I will let you know if it changes.

Lastly – to answer your question Crashe you cannot remove your vote once you have voted for someone. It either expires after 4 months. Or if you vote for someone else in the same category it will be removed from the first person (i.e. you can only vote for one person in each category.

The only answer I don’t have yet is TL Riders (will get back to you)

Guys remember it all in good fun - dont take things too seriously.

:doobey:

Thanks Joni for responding back....

Much appreciated.

Quick question for you.

What was TLRiders question?

Fuck that. (not picking on you sorry Joni)
The concept of the site arbitrarily imposing anything completely blows. Particularly the identity or the representation of the participants.

I take anything that has my name and reputation on it seriously.

See if you can change it - or the option I guess is to just bail till it expires because I don't wish to post under the picture of a nonce.

What happens if someone who is already voted Flame Warrior X gets voted as Flame Warrior Y

eg Sarge is presently voted as Centurion. What happens if, before the Centurion vote expires, we all vote him as Pinko ? (yes, my mind DOES work that way) .

I don't "get" the flame warrior thing. But that's probably some Darwinian thing...

Well obviously someone thinks you earned it. If the shoe fits, wear it with pride :niceone:

No way. You've just confirmed something for me however.

I'm out of here till it changes. Someone send me an email if/when it changes.

DB out for now.

I see that things have changed. Although I get the impression that if you don't make an acceptance speach and even have 10+ nominations for the same flame warrior, that your avator etc does not change? Might want to keep this in mind if true for those who recieve nominations, looks like it might actually be a way around the whole thing...

Just noticed that the above is in fact incorrect. However there is one person who has not had the changes insigated as per everyone else. Kinda makes the whole flame warrior concept a load of bollocks IMO, not that I really care though. Whats the point in having it if it does not aply for everyone? Personally I think its a great laught, not to be taken seriously, at all...

Or it could be a bug. It something is not working the way you think it should, let me know the details so I can fix it.
