Those tagged, those that have me blocked, Bsh1 and Virtuoso, thank you for voting me. I mean that sincerely.

I had an idea that this vote would go quite differently from Round 1 to now. I won't say specifically how or why, I am not trying to campaign here, that's not the intention. I am genuinely grateful to realise I'm not the total outcast and loser on here that some have made me come to feel. It sincerely means a lot to me, even if it ends up with another 3 as the winners. The chance in the running given to me by people I thought paid barely any attention to me is honestly testament to the attention I pay to newcomers paying off in some shape or form. I am happy very much for that.

Even if you say 'for now' you can only maximum change one later on, out of the two.

I'll count the three votes, plus a change. Once you've cast three, you can still have one change. Or once you've cast one or two and then changed one of those, you've used up your change.

Yeah, if I get around to it, I was planning on using my one change. I was just voting on the two I felt most strongly about for now.

I'm pretty satisfied with my previous voting (except for threads, I remembered a great one from Imabench which I would totally point someone to every election season, but it's too late now).

USERS:
With the limit of three inductees, I believe the moderators have all earned it, but I am prioritizing just one to give other users recognition outside of that position. Nor would I vote for someone based on bias for their contributions on another website.

  • I’ve done the math, at 27.5% of the active votes, he’s by far our best voter. Nearly all of us have him to thank for not having more unvoted tied debates. He’s basically done to tied debates what the CDC did to measles. For this alone he deserves our highest recognition.
    Additionally, he serves as a vote moderator, greatly decreasing the time he has available to vote, by cleaning up bad votes on our debates.

    As a serious bonus, while always working hard to raise the quality of the site, he's respectful but entertaining.
    ___
  • He's excellence which every member should strive to emulate. Not every user needs to reinvent the wheel (as much as I'm sure he'd accept a debate on better wheel designs). He's a solid and active voter, a damn fine debater able and willing to delve deep into very technical ones (GPS, engine types, etc.). He earned the top slot in the leader-boards, but regularly jeopardizes it with risky debates.

    When playing Mafia against him, I was left arguing against killing him when it made tactical sense, because of how much more fun the game was with his steady analysis (better to lose to the best, than to win against idles).

DEBATES:
  • An excellent troll debate done in jest as if sincere. I am loath to nominate my own debate, but we also have a dire shortage on comedic debates. I even publicly asked but no one pointed to others worth reading; so I am nominating the best offering from the first year or so of the site.
    Endorsements from the comment section: “Oh dear,” “Genius,” and “Goat”!
    ___
  • A fantastic example of what policy debates can be. It came from an exceptionally good starting place of mutual disagreement with the status quo and agreement that either side would be a marked improvement. This was easily among the closest debates I’ve ever graded, with both sides losing some of their points.
    ___
  • An odd addition from me, since [insert elitist talk against rap battles here]. However...

    P1: If the main user base enjoys rap battles, rap battles should be honored the same as any other debate type.
    P2: Various users have contributed to creating literally 75 debates titled *rap battle* (plus an additional 19 with rap otherwise in their title).
    C:  The best rap battle should be honored with induction into the HoF.

    I believe the HoF should include a wide variety in types of offerings, and this one is very distinct from the rest.

    Admittedly, I am in part voting for this as a backdoor vote of support for the two participants (Supa, and presumably BLT).

THREADS:
  • veto
    I know this is meaningless but after reviewing the nominees, the only ones I can imagine being worthwhile to tell new members they must read a year from now, are ones already pinned and thus in no need for extra recognition. This is much like why we did not do a HoF a year ago...
