I can't remember Round 1 well but didn't he already have 200 at the start? I don't remember him having to add more to get in.
You're only a war room poster if it benefits the haters.

Hummer and the rest of the limpwrist cereal killer lookin types only attack is saying something like this. Pathetic, low energy angle.
 
All? Naw just some. Glad to see @irish_thug and @pcptornado doing well. @JDragon is becoming a disappointment. I wanted to have the pleasure of him having to spend his time by himself updating thd POTWR thread...

Unfortunately it looks like he's turned into a low energy Jeb/Hack Sausage type.

Deep State Media would like to make a revision to our previous headline and change the word "all" to "some". By doing this revision, we will not actually change the headline but will point to this as our attempt to fix the inaccuracy.
 
Respect to Lead for the effort he has put into these elections. It's a lot of work.

It's virtually impossible to make everyone happy with these -- so while constructive ideas are welcome, bitching and moaning should be left home. Let's just be thankful that he puts in effort for this and it's been fun; and it's not over yet.
If I were to have a gripe with Sherdog it would be people who shit on content providers.

I'm not saying I'm some shining example of a good poster, but people constantly shit on my threads while making none of their own, or even get half the traffic I bring to some.

Some people need to chill imo.

Stop pretending to be objective, it reeks of bullshit. You're having your fun, and the autists, bless their boring little hateful hearts, seem to enjoy it. But there's already a forum for that.

Failty is CONQUERED.

GTFO!!!

<DisgustingHHH>
 
A few more funny Paint jobs would have easily sealed my vote for Snakedafunky.... but he seems to have disappeared.
 
Noch ein tieferer Tiefpunkt, wie Rudi Völler sagen würde. Ein 4-0 gegen dieses untalentierte Team zu verspielen...peinlicher geht es nicht.
Ausgerechnet gegen Schalke...

For sure.

However, I said that this format was flawed and hugely skewed in favor of ideological outliers from the rip. I’ve been beating this drum ever since the format for these elections was announced.

And while @Lead has said he is open to suggestions, (they are too late for this year).

The bottom line is that a format like this, where you have a ton of candidates and one round of voting to get the top two is absolutely slanted towards whichever candidates are most dissimilar from the pack.

LOL @ the loser lefties whining about the rules, and attacking the master of ceremonies. This is why you will never win anything. This is why you're losing to an OT titposter.

You're all "that guy". Nobody likes "that guy".
 
Even @luckyshot wouldn't vote for cuckyshot!! LOL!! Sad...
@Palis how was your Thanksgiving, bud?

Lots of dark meat I’m sure.

The rules are the rules.

We fucked up by over crowding the field.

Doesn’t change the fact that you still suck.

Also, doesn’t change the fact that a titty Poster is a huge upgrade from utter ass clown.
 
For sure.

I respect your suggestions and do note them. Furthermore, you actually do something on your part to work around them (step down and endorse a candidate positioned close-by yourself). One thing that might be missing here is once Round 1 starts, I pretty much have the rules/criteria laid out at that point so when we move forward, its easier to regulate and not cause scandal in what calls are made. Suggestions are noted for next year when another Round 1 would begin. I think there were a lot of improvements from last year in controlling the registration, etc but I do notice there is more critiques about the election rounds, especially having a possibly middle round (which is being seriously considered). I just want you to know I never was going to change the rules of the current election in progress but I am definitely going to take what went right/wrong this year and adjust accordingly for 2018 if we have one just like I did from 2016 to 2017.

The bottom line is that a format like this, where you have a ton of candidates and one round of voting to get the top two is absolutely slanted towards whichever candidates are most dissimilar from the pack.

This is a common problem with a multi-candidate election in general. Two similar positioned candidates can eat at each others votes. Previously, I think you were mentioning ideological extremes benefiting from this but I agree with the comment above far more. A candidate that is distanced far enough from each group has a good chance at winning. Palis found success in 2016 doing so and irish is doing a similar thing this year.

And this is why within my first 90 days in office I will from a special committee to look into election reform so that we can have fair and balanced elections in the future.

Vote Irish!
 
To put more perspective on how early this race is, the current front runner has 15 votes. I just found there are 37 voters from last year who have no voted yet and voted for left leaning candidates last year. Consider that previous year voters are less than half the voting base and you can see here this primary is still very early to make any calls.

I dunno. Publically repudiate and disavow @HereticBD and @Palis and I think I can get you number of votes in the next round.

Otherwise, I might be on the pcp titty train.
