Start with Micro, and just append "Willy" to it, as in the character from MM/JSW. It's progression, it's Speccy-centric.

Re: Forum ranks poll
Surely you can't be suggesting that having the highest post count on a forum is some sort of childish dick waving contest?

Re: Forum ranks poll
Maybe we should consider a completely different system. Maybe one based on how useful each persons introduction post is? Or failing that, how many letters (characters) long their post is...

Times the number of odd hours in a day before the post was made, minus the number of vowels in the poster’s nick name squared. Hey, I think we’re onto something here!

A penultimate bump before Friday, assuming I remember to bump it again.

This road appears to be full of pot holes and bumps. Maybe it's a track way and not a road???

Anybody know of a hack to manipulate poll results? Asking for a friend.

Last bump.
Poll closes tomorrow 12.00 UTC.
Looks like a close one, the berks currently have it.

Oh bloody hell, 13 all, it's never simple is it. I'm sure you lot do it on purpose.
If it's still a draw at midday UTC let's give it another week.
If it's still a draw then....dunno.

Re: Forum ranks poll
In case of final draw we might ask for a qualified vote, a casting vote.
Does anyone know Clive Sinclair's email?

Re: Forum ranks poll
Ahh! The wonderful world of community democracy
Admins make a decision and divide the community, and those who are upset shout out at the Admins because they are wrong.
So, you give the community the choice, and instead it equally divides itself...
Welcome to the world of being wrong!

Re: Forum ranks poll
I don't recognise this description of events. Looks more like you're itching to draw parallels that aren't there to me.

Re: Forum ranks poll
Not trying to draw parallels to anything. My comments just reflect my own experiences of how, sometimes, events don't go the way that is expected.
And for the record, I'm just watching, as I already voted weeks ago.
Anyway, since you posted that it's currently a draw, there has been another vote

Re: Forum ranks poll
Still level pegging.
I guess if it's still a draw on Friday 12 UTC we just keep the current ranks but leave the poll open and forget about it for a while, maybe in weeks or months something will pull ahead.

Re: Forum ranks poll
Still level pegging? Is there a minimum percentage for it not to be level pegging?
Re: Forum ranks poll
No it was 14 all when I posted. 1 vote would be enough.
Re: Forum ranks poll
That happened last Friday.
