This poll is based on the results of the Moderators - Immortal Machines (http://www.colonyofgamers.com/cogforums/showthread.php?t=5166) thread. Please vote for who you believe would be best suited for moderating the PC Gaming areas of Immortal Machines @ Colony of Gamers. The primary responsiblity of the moderators would be to keep the front page of Immortal Machines relevant by moving threads into the specified forums.

-PC Gaming News
-IM Features
-IM Podcast

You would also be responsible for keeping the five forums nice and clean.

We have room for 3 moderators, one has already been selected by me. The remaining 2 slots will be given to the top results of this poll.

Well, that isn't looking too promising, haha.

Were all these people even willing to be moderators, or just who we thought would be good?

I'm not sure this is a race you really want to win! That being said, what changes will you bring if you are elected? Whats your stance on RIAA vs the People? XKCD or Penny Arcade? Intel or AMD? Nvidia or ATI?

I was too late to vote for myself. So I voted for the Maltese Falcon instead.

So how come is it that I'm finding out about this TODAY? :confused:

P.S. : Voted for Gnome, because I hate him the least outta allaya. (Myself included)

I think its hilarious that Random is on this poll when he clearly did NOT want to be a mod. Then again, I seconded his nomination, I guess I have no one to blame but myself. :p

I'm bummed LiquidRain isn't on this list, him and Violent would make excellent additions to IM. As of now Violent gets my vote.

If this was a multi-option poll, he was next, but I did not want to potentially "waste" my vote on somone that does not want to do it. :)

I voted for violent because he is one of the most level-headed members on these forums.

Nvidia or ATI?Oh I fully know what I'm getting into. As I said in the other thread, I modded for over 5 years at VNBoards. I'm more of a lazy mod, I tend to let things sit unless it's really blatant, like spam, severe trolling, etc. So I don't see anything I do changing much of how things work right now at all.

Violent, LR, and H Bogard are my top three (not in order). I'm not sure why R51 or Mag is on there.

Quite right. Would you like to remove yourself from nominations then?

There were a few others that nominated him but nobody has voted for him.

I agree but nobody nominated him and he also didn't volunteer...

Yeah, no doubt. I suppose it would have been better to have step #2 of "Do you accept your nomination?" Whops! :)

Violent, LR, and H Bogard are my top three (not in order). I'm not sure why R51 or Mag is on there.
While R51 isn't willing to be Moderator nowhere did Mag say he wasn't. Then again, with Mag's nomination it is hard to tell if it is serious or not. :|

It's quite unfortunate, I would be a most forgiving overlord. However, I don't think my ego could accept the 0 votes, or worse 1.

It's gotta be Bogard and Violent. I'm guessing J Arcane made another account and voted for himself twice.

I voted Goronmon, and would have voted Violent second if there were two votes.

I don't even have an idea what would be required of me.

I have no problems with posting news as far as that goes. I don't want to deal with deleting/monitoring douchebaggy posts though (in case that's what this is all about), that would be serious business. :D

I voted for you! You have previous experience moderating, and you seem very serious about wanting to contribute. I think you'd do a great job.

A vote for Goronmon is a vote for... moderation!? :)

LiquidRain

Thanks for all the "write-in" votes for me. Makes me feel all warm and fuzzy. :o

I also write in vote for Liquid. He is a stand up guy.

I would write-in for Liquid if I didn't already know he doesn't want the task :p

While I thought certain feelings were applicable to my persona, faith never dawned as one. Thanks for the support.

Also, I voted for Random.

Based on the results of this poll, we are going to have a 2nd poll for the 3rd moderator slot. When I put that one up it will be you, LiquidRain, MagGnome and Goronmon; assuming that Violent wins this poll.

Voodoo, I think you should PM all the nominated parties (I can do it if you don't have the time) to make sure they are interested and then create another poll tomorrow morning based on the responses. That being said I would like to nominate Slacker and Torrefaction.

Quite right. I seemed to have skipped right over that post. I guess that means less competition for you. ;)

Yeah, I've got my hands full with running stuff over at Rainwave. I love you guys, but I don't have the time to run over every thread/post made here at COG in the PC forum, or I would do it. :)

That would be great if you did. Include those two and Cit, he was an hour late.

Violent will make a great mod.

I'd go J Arcane and Bogard.

I don't think I've ever seen them get heated over any discussion anywhere. And they seem to know their stuff. Those are far and away my top two choices. I'm going to stay diplomatic (and relevant) and not say who I think is the worst nominee.

I responded, sorry for the delayed reply.

Polls are closed. The second poll will be up soon. :) This last poll will determine who will be the third moderator.
