      In your list, "Kassiopeia" has 6 votes and "Kassiopea" has 2 votes. It should read that "Kassiopeia" has 8 votes.

      And still they think I shouldn't change my username to a shorter form... pffth.
      Cake and grief counseling will be available at the conclusion of the test. Thank you for helping us help you help us all!

        Oh dear! Are you even sure you answered the questions correctly?) Underneath your confused exterior, you hold fast to your certainties and seek to find the truth about the things you don't know. While you may not be brimming with confidence and energy, you are content with who you are and accepting of both your faults and the faults of others. But while those around you love you deep down, they may find your nonchalance somewhat infuriating. Try to put a bit more thought into what you are doing, and be more aware of your surroundings.

          Excellence can be attained if you Care more than other think is wise, Risk more than others think is safe, Dream more than others think is practical and Expect more than others think is possible.

                  I've said it before and I'll say it again. The "Hall of Fame" is nothing more than an off-topic forum popularity contest.

                    But there are on-topicers in the hall!

                    IT's only predominatntly Off topic because
                    1.) It was 1st held ther
                    2.) More people vote there... hardly anyone votes here
                    3.) They have been around longer and thus, their votes carry more weight.

                      Yes, there are on-topicers (I don't think "topicer" is a word... but whatever ) in the hall. However, the reasons you list are exactly what's wrong with the Hall of Fame.

                      Voting should be held only in the on-topic forums. So what if the vote count is lower this way. While I appreciate the value of the off-topic forum and the depth it gives the community, this is a board designed with games in mind. If we're to have a hall of fame, it should be dedicated to those who further that original purpose.

                        FNBrown,
                        I couldn't agree more. However, DC has no intention of starting from scratch again (and considering the huge amount of labour he put in so far, I can understand that). So the only way to make things better is to vote and to push for reforms, to fight the system from within

                        I, together with others, have already gotten DC to start posting this in the on-topic forums (rather than just in Off Topic and Community) and to make the whole thing a little more newbie-friendly. I and others will continue to press for more changes, until it's truly representative for all of Apolyton (which is still a while away, but every vote brings it a little step closer)...

                            She's a damn good writer, what else should there be? That's more then enough

                              The greatest delight for man is to inflict defeat on his enemies, to drive them before him, to see those dear to them with their faces bathed in tears, to bestride their horses, to crush in his arms their daughters and wives.

                                Hmm, don't forget that the OT is just one forum, while the on-topics have many different, and thus more shared votes...
                                Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing?
