Why would GooglieGod want to favor one faction against another? I don't argue that different actions taken by a CMN may have different implications for different factions. However if the game has to go on we need somebody who is able to do the ruling to the best of his judgement. And I believe that nobody would do better than Googlie as he has proved to us many times in the past. The fairness of a certain action or ruling could still be argued, and I can understand the feelings of the faction who may have been adversely impacted. However, I hope this will not amount to the distrust of GooglieGod as our CMN, for I don't see any reason why this could be the case, and what we have seen in the past makes me firmly believe in Googlie's integrity.
Think about a ball game, the referee makes the final call, and the players accept it, whether they agree to it or not. This is what ensures the game could go on. Some times the implication could be great. I still remember Maradona's "invisible hand of god". If a referee has to resign whenever a serious dispute happens in the middle of a game, I'm sure the ball games would be a lot different from today.
So what I'm trying to say is, without seeing any evidence against him, I believe in GooglieGod's integrity and I believe he has made and will make rulings to his best judgement. We have given him the right to make judgement rulings when we selected Googlie to be our CMN. We can of course always amend rules to ensure the fairness for everybody as best as we can, but we should accept the fact that there will be times that we are subject to the CMN's ruling. I hope the bitter feelings if there are any will not prolong and when everybody who is involved in this calm down some more, we would reach the agreement that we still need GooglieGod as our CMN. This is only a game afterall.

Just read Flubber's thread. It appears that although there are disagreement as to whether the call is right, nobody really is calling for GooglieGod's resignation. I hope GooglieGod will decide that his love for this game will be so strong that he will stay with us even when there are disagreements toward his rulings.

I just received the horrible news, please don't leave us.
I do not know the details of the situation itself, but from what I had read I would urge you to reconsider your resignation, and echo the words of support already stated by many. The people involved in this game need you, you are an intricate part of this experience, and throughout it has been one of the most involved and resourceful individuals. I would greatly miss your contributions if you do decide to go, as I am certain so would all involved in the ACDG.
You can only curse me to eternal damnation for so long!
I am in full agreement with DBTS, Drogue, Maniac, Hercules, Voltaire, HongHu, and whoever else has posted. You have been one of the most interesting and fun personalities in this game, and we'll all miss you sorely if you leave. Don't let the Hobbitses upset you. You're our precious.

I know players read all threads, but for the record I posted this in Flubber's explanation thread:

If so, then I shall, as the groundswell has been encouraging.
Please, whoever this is... put your grievances behind you so we can have our GooglieGod back.

I would like to ask everyone to join me in a rendition of "A Prayer to GooglieGod":
Our CMN, who art in all forums,
hallowed by thy name.
Should our Faction win,
thy will be done,
on Chiron as it failed on Earth.
Give us this day, our daily data.
And forgive us our experiments,
as we forgive those who experiment upon us.
And lead us not into the fungus,
but deliver us from the Hive.
For thine is the map, the power and and the glory.
For ever and ever. Amen.

Anyway... I was going to write a whole spiel on why Googlie should stay. I think others have covered the issues just fine, though, so in the interest of brevity:
STAY, GGLIE!

Hrmm so that was what that unsual acitivity I was monitoring yesterday. Anyway if this is an game rule dispute I'll neglect telling my team who the involved parties are.
For my two cents. I think that the number of people that really like you Googlie far outweighs the number of people that don't. However, I understand sometimes these kinds of decisions involve more than just the simple majority.
Kody: Look at Flubber's thread on it. They've already named the parties involved.
Can you really tell *that* much from a powergraph?
