Verdict: JUSTICE and LAW

[Montmorency]

Why are the results hidden? I demand that an inquiry of this matter be launched immediately.

[Andres]

Why are the results hidden?

So that TinCow can abuse his tech admin powers to influence the poll results unnoticed.

Of course, the intelligent members of this forum already know that I have more knowledge than TinCow. And not just in law, if I may add.

[Populus Romanus]

Awesome, my name turns pink? I always wanted a special color.

[TinCow]

So that TinCow can abuse his tech admin powers to influence the poll results unnoticed.

The Tech Admin position exists to solve problems and fix errors. It would be impossible for you to win this poll normally, so if you did win it would have to be as the result of a forum software bug. Under such circumstances, I would be duty-bound to fix the error. That's the kind of dedication I have to the Org.

O tempora, O mores!

Not only is this man capable of abusing his power. No. On top of that, he's not even ashamed to admit he will do so.

Impossible for me to win this poll normally? If I did, it's a bug? What sort of misinformation is this? Lies that are so obvious that you could as well say "well yes, if you win, I'll just change it so that I win."



What a sad day this is.

And all of that because an honest and prudent man like me pointed out a silly mistake in a forum post.

[Populus Romanus]

I would like to point out that black is not the same color as pink. I believe this is of vital importance as, though the LAW stipulates that those members who select the poll option ANDRES shall have the color of their name changed to pink, and though I have selected the poll option ANDRES therefore fulfilling all given requirements for my name being changed to the color pink, my name is still 100% black. This is of vital importance because it appears that Tincow has in fact come up with the notion that black and pink are the same color. This is however untrue, one can tell simply by looking at them that they are very different. Pink is the color red mixed with white, whereas black is just black. I demand that my name changed at one, or Tincow is breaking the LAW.

hear hear! Sue the lot of them!

[Reenk Roink]

I have hidden the votes because this isn't a game show, this is a matter of LAW. On Wednesday, August 31, at 17:00 EST, I will reveal the verdict.

Actually painters don't use just red and white to make pink. But lying TinCow did!

What kind of a Kangaroo Court do you think this is? We do not punish people until they have been found guilty of breaking the law. Your trial date has not even been set yet.

I'll have my trial tomorrow at 1:00, and I plead GUILTY.

[Fisherking]

Why is Andres misrepresenting himself like this?

I think that most of the staff knows TinCow’s legal abilities after his encounter with one UK ambulance chaser…not to mention BG’s aptitude for, umm, however you want to phrase that little issue…

I can hardly wait to see who turns pink!

I would assume Andres will be first.

In short:
Bow-chicka-bow-wow

[Reenk Roink]

Sorry I'm late, I was delayed by a pair of Belgian assassins, no doubt hired by Andres to stop me from giving the verdict: TinCow wins

It was closer in votes than the lopsided debate indicated though, 12-10. Interestingly GAH only mustered 9 votes. Org spirit must be low.

[Kralizec]

This verdict is a travesty of justice; even Joseph Stalin would be too ashamed to call this a trial

[TinCow]

I agree! There's no way 10 people would have voted for Andres if this was done legitimately!

[Veho Nex]

It was close, but I believe the voting was rigged.

[rajpoot]

It is true then, the world is ending.

I don't believe you, since you can't show us the results. I will not believe until I see the actual results.

[Secura]

As per Reenk's post, I've closed the poll and changed the results to public.

[Arjos]

Quite obviously most votes for TinCow and Andres were missclicked GAHs :)

[Secura]

I voted GAH, can I have my name turned Purple?

Only if you join the Creative Assembly staff! :P

Why are the results hidden?

They're hidden to me when I try to view them normally, but when I go to edit the original post... :P

[Gregoshi]

Lawyer canabalism...excellent!



TinCow, there is a problem in your methods: if everyone who votes for Andres has their name turned pink, we will have a visual confirmation of just how many voted for Andres despite any monkeying around with the poll numbers you may do. This flaw shows inferior critical thinking so important to a lawyer. Andres is shown superior to you by default...though how he fairs against "Gah!" is uncertain.

[Moros]

What we need is a judge however. As Secura has jerusdiction here and clearly is following the case and using her powers, she would be the logical choice.

I can tell you that twenty-five people have voted thus far (I haven't, heh), and that the results are very close.

[Reenk Roink]

You are abusing your executive powers and making a mockery of the LAW. I am the jury foreman, as well as judge, plaintiff, and defendant of this particular case.

Now, GO TINCOW GO!

[Secura]

Hahaha, I think you'll find the new poll does that just fine; a shame that you had to call my impartiality into question! :P

I do not 'monkey' with poll numbers. I fix bugs. That's my job. Nowhere in my job description does it say "Tech Admins may abuse the absolutely unlimited power they have to influence the fates of each and every person on the Org." Not even in the super-secret invisible fine print that only Tech Admins can so. No, not even there. That text says something quite different.
