    If I see more people that don't read the rules then I'll also have to start drinking. Hehe. [face_tongue]

    Even the most basic forms of English comprehension are bastardized in this thread. No spotlights for anybody. [face_frustrated]

    Shot in the dark here, but your tumblr ID wouldn't happen to be 68calamity, would it?

    A shot and a miss. I don't even have a Tumblr account.

    Not even close. :^O Good lord, people.

    I'll save people some confusion here. You can vote for any regular user on this board that has over 2,500 posts, with the exception of moderators. All Stars who aren't moderators (i.e. woody, chibs) CAN be voted for.

    Just remember to send it to Max-Fischer and I via PM. [face_peace] I'll answer any other questions tomorrow. I just finished watching Summer Wars with @duckandcover and I need sleep. [face_sleep]

    That goddamn gif has over 12k+ reblogs, etc., on the NE Tumblr and it's the one currently logged in on my phone. [face_cry]

    Also, y'all are a bunch of dumb asses if you can't figure out how to work this thing without turning it into the goddamn DFC/AFL drama, voting process, hair care and tire shop. It's not hard and, even if you're wrong, you'll get told and you'll get another chance to vote (I'm assuming, but this doesn't seem as super cereal as the aforementioned dingles).

    I think this should be highlighted as much as possible: PM your vote. They're not to be posted in this thread.

    Great movie. ~o)

    If only people would read the OP before acting on impulse. YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO SEND YOUR VOTES TO EITHER CHIBKEY OR WOODY. What's so hard to understand?


    Now I wait patiently

    Martin is a mod so you can't vote for him. He's just pulling your chain.

    Crazy888 is just joking, so don't listen to him. Hehe. [face_tongue]

    You can see that I don't have the "mod" sign below my icon, so I'm not a moderator. Hehe. [face_tongue]

    I just thought, I'm an alt, aren't I ineligible? IGN is discriminating.

    You can basically choose which one of your accounts that's the main account. OnlyMyRailgun is considered your main account because of how active you've been with that account. But you can only be in the spotlight once regardless of which account you're using, so once you've been chosen then you can't be chosen again.

    People who vote for you may not know that, and they may vote for OnlyMyRailgun instead.

    Around here from a majority point of view I'm not liked or disliked. It's just complete indifference.

    What are you talking about? There's a lot of people that like you at the Anime Board, and that includes me.

    This community nomination for the spotlight is unfortunately a popularity contest like a lot of other things at the Anime Board.

    All the most deserving people around here are already mods or all-stars, sadly.


    You're terrible at publicity.

    That's an interesting statement, but not entirely true. I can think of one more person that deserves the spotlight, but you'll never guess who.
    I don't seek publicity, Mawgs. I'm merely speaking the truth.

    Tbh the spotlighted user will be a Vesti or GCB user, they have a greater representation after all.

    Regarding MwG's comment, most of them are mod/all-stars not all.

    lol. This board is based off the community's vote. Those of you in the community are deciding on the pick. Yes, generally you have to have a presence on the board, so people knowing who you are kind of goes hand in hand with people voting for you. There are plenty of great users here that aren't mods. Users from other boards aren't really voting here, so I don't know why it would matter how popular someone was elsewhere.

    We select the account that gets voted, whether it's an alt or not, it's the one people most identify the user with at this time.
    > spends two pages asking for votes
    > laments it being a popularity contest

    Pick one.
