Are you going to give me those things you promised a long time ago? 😍 And all those saved bits I ended up missing 🙂

Americans 😲

hiddennomad60 said:I just realized I have some of that heritage too; on my mom's side, it's pure Midwesterner 😁 I think I knew about him before, but it only recently clicked what his background actually meant 😬

I'm mostly New Yorker and Brooklynite, though I had a bit of a Scandinavian vibe once, too 😁

they’re all actually from small-town Ohio😁

Anthony Nguyen81, I just finally wrapped my head around what you wrote earlier. I was completely out of the loop... honestly, I think I might be getting old.

hiddennomad60 said:Morning! :ro fl: :rof l:
I just realized I have those same roots as Nata—on my mom's side, it's pure Midwest heritage :D I mean, I knew about him before, but it only recently clicked what Nata's heritage actually implies :zub o:

Blood is thicker than water😬

Drew Ross2 said:Wiki, do you think you could survive a total massacre at the end of the world? 😁 😁

I could.😁

You put it perfectly.👍

Where was that? 😁

Nothing special 😁

I pulled too many votes during the contest, so they disqualified me from the running 😁

Look—my story wasn't exactly a masterpiece, and most of the votes came from my own friends. There’s a logical reason why some people are feeling salty about it, but still 😬

Difference in perception.
A closed society versus the outsiders.

Anthony Nguyen81 said:You put that pretty well 👍

I get the same impression—it’s just a closed circle of people voting for one another. It isn't even about how good the story is; it's more about who puts in the effort or who they happen to like personally.
And look, that's fine, I guess—but then why act surprised when your own followers vote using that exact same logic? 🤷

Drew Ross2 said:That’s the vibe I get—they’re just a closed circle, voting amongst themselves. It isn't even about who has the best argument; it’s more about who put in the most effort or who they simply like better.
And hey, that's fine—but then why act shocked when your own followers vote using those exact same principles? 🤷

Exactly. 👍

All you have to do is glance at the comment sections, where people are busy apologizing for why they didn't vote for someone...

Since we're all being funny and stuff, just so you know, I don't have a wife or kids to back me up here, but hey, I've got grandkids!☕

Drew Ross2 said:that’s basically the vibe I get. They’re such a tight-knit clique, just voting among themselves. It isn't even about who has the best takes; it's more about who they think "deserves" it because they try hard or they're just buddies.
And look, fine, whatever, but why act all shocked when your own followers start voting using that exact same logic? 🤷

Honestly, people can be so clueless. Like, obviously 90% of the voters are just skimming the highlights from the few posters they actually recognize. They just drop a vote and call it a day. Ugh, Americans and their voting habits... when has it ever actually worked out for the better?☕

You can't have a forum without a little drama 😁

Zachary Bennett and his grandkids 😂

Anthony Nguyen81 said:Exactly 👍

You only need to glance at the comments where people are busy apologizing for why they didn't vote for someone...

They treated you the same way they did to Nives when they stripped her of the Cyclops 😁

Zachary Bennett said:Since we’re being lighthearted—just to be clear, I don't have a wife or kids to back me up, but I do have grandkids.☕

Honestly, it's just foolishness. I suppose it's perfectly normal that 90% of voters only read what their favorite forum trolls tell them to. They just post their opinions without any actual votes and call it a day. Americans and voting... it rarely ends well.☕

Either way, they claim winning doesn't matter to them, then they throw a fit because Wiki won.😁
If that's the case, man, just admit you want to win—then maybe you'll get some respect. Instead, it's always, "Oh, it doesn't matter to me, I just can't let him win!"

Drew Ross2 said:They basically pulled the same stunt they did to Nives when they stripped her of the Cyclops : D

Pretty much🤣
Good, very good 😬

Drew Ross2 said:And yet, they still claim the votes and the win don't matter—then they lose their minds just because Wikipedia won : D
Look, man, just admit you want to win. You’d actually earn my respect if you did. Instead, it's always, "Oh, winning isn't everything," while simultaneously seething because they can't win!!

👍
What an absolute joke. 😁

Kimberly Rodriguez51 said:Can't have a forum without some drama, right? 😁

Zachary Bennett and his whole crew 😂

I've only got one so far, been at it for over six months now. But hey, if God wills it, there'll be more coming. ☕

Drew Ross2 said:They act all high and mighty like winning and having a voice doesn't even matter, then they lose their minds just because Wikipedia won. 😁
Look, man, just admit you want to win and you'll get my respect. Don't do this "oh, I don't care" routine when deep down you're fuming that they pulled ahead!

Classic American jealousy ☕

Zachary Bennett said:Honestly, they’re just complete idiots. It’s common sense—90% of the people heading to the polls only bother reading the snippets posted by the few forum users they actually trust. They just cast their ballots and call it a day. Americans and voting... honestly, when has that ever actually worked out for the better?☕

And then—as expected—some drama broke out. 😲

Kimberly Rodriguez51 said:You can't have a forum without a little drama — :D
Zachary Bennett and his grandkids :lo l:

Je 😬
A 🤣

Drew Ross2 said:I got that exact vibe. They’re just a tight-knit clique voting for each other, not based on who actually has good takes, but just because they're buddies and think they deserve it.
Which is fine, but then why complain when your own voters play by those same rules? 🤷

If you actually read the whole thing, the drama started because someone went on a massive PEM rant yesterday, spamming everyone from Politics to Off to push for one specific person. It wouldn't even be an issue if their friends had just shown up on their own merit.
Same goes for how Letec could've won—just look at that rigged philosophy poll where they pulled 20+ votes instantly. Not like I'm trying to start beef with Beljkija over it :to do list: 😁

E: oops, thread's banned 😳 feel free to move it

Why didn't I get my PEM?🙂

It’s the same story with Letec—she could have won easily, much like how she crushed that rigged philosophy poll where she pulled in over 20 votes instantly. I haven't decided whether to go after Beljkija for that yet. My to-do list is: 😁

Lady, you are in the wrong chat room.🙂 😁

So what if he called in his crew to vote? I already said it—that's really the only way an outsider stands a chance there, since they have this habit of voting for their own based on merit or just plain old favoritism.
They should probably add a rule stating that only active contributors who actually participate in the contests can vote. Period.😁

Now, please, just head back to your own chat.🙂

I think I voted for Belgium back then—even though I don't really post there—mostly just because of all the hype surrounding the poll. I suppose I just wanted to be part of the drama.😁
