Forum:Aren't we about due for another sysopping election?
I could have sworn at the beginning of the year, we said we'd do this monthly. 'Course, that didn't work out for Feb. and March because we opped three people in January (and by "we," I mean Chron), but it's lateish April now. Are we good on admins or do we need to hold elections again? —Major Sir Hinoa prepare for trouble • make it double? 13:30, 20 April 2007 (UTC)
- I thought we said we'd review the situation every six months or so? As each election now adds another two or three at a time we don't seem to be in need people as often now. Even when the slackers take a break. -- Sir Mhaille (talk to me)
- I'd vote for an "assessment" sometime in late May, then if we think it's needed, we can go from there. t o m p k i n s blah. ﺞوﻦ וףה ՃՄ ண்ஸ ފއހ วอฏม +տ trade websites 23:11, 20 April 2007 (UTC)
I think we need some new admins now. There needs to be more who can watch recent changes and new pages as too often there isn't enough around. You people who don't actually do anything probably just don't notice. And I should point out that one of the admins most recently opped has left, and isn't coming back any time soon. I think we'd benefit from having another admin or two, and it definitely couldn't do any harm. • Spang • ☃ • talk • 01:13, 21 Apr 2007

- I can do that (along with the Grue Army) without a sysopping, although they might want to be sysopped. --High Gen. Grue 01:24, 21 April 2007 (UTC)
- So how and who gets the nominations going? --Ж Kalir, Crazy Indie Gamer (missile ponies for everyone!) 01:31, 21 April 2007 (UTC)
- Congratulations, you will never be sysopped. Next! -- 06:06, 21 April 2007 (UTC)
We averaged about one a month last year. I think that's a good rate. I think it's a good idea to have plenty of reliable ops, too. I can't say I've really noticed a desperate NEED right now, like I did in January, but then, I just kinda hang out and don't really do anything. (As Braydie once said, "Brad, you're one of the SEXY admins..." :) ).--<<>> 21:09, 22 April 2007 (UTC)
- He said that to you, too? -- Sir Mhaille (talk to me)
- Ah - it's all falling into place. Braydie is cool-and-sexy-admins-IP. I should have known, really, what with all his other suspected sockpuppets (i.e. anyone who begins with B. Umm, including Brad, I guess...?) --Whhhy?Whut?How? *Back from the dead* 23:50, 22 April 2007 (UTC)
- That actually happened. And no, I'm not the cool-and-sexy-admins-IP, but I am a cool and sexy admin. —Braydie 15:32, 23 April 2007 (UTC)
- After all, everyone is gay for Braydie. --Ж Kalir, Crazy Indie Gamer (missile ponies for everyone!) 15:38, 23 April 2007 (UTC)
- Except if I was to say I was gay because of Braydie, it actually wouldn't be a compliment. How ironic. --Whhhy?Whut?How? *Back from the dead* 17:00, 23 April 2007 (UTC)

Time Zone
Actually, I notice there are some gaps during the day when we don't have any active admin and the stalking IPs feast on uncyc's passive veins. Maybe you should choose between good candidates taking in consideration the time zone of them. For instance, how many Australian admins do we have? -- herr doktor needsAcharge [scream!] 17:06, 23 April 2007 (UTC)
I might be mistaken, but I think we only have those damn Nortamericanos and those pesky Europeans. There are some Kiwis and Ausies around to summon to the flag.~ 17:17, 23 April 2007 (UTC)

- Don't be stupid. There are no Aussies on Uncyclopedia. They have no sense of humour. Sir Cs1987 UOTM. t. c 03:57, 25 April 2007 (UTC)

Please don't op me
Really. I know what they do all day. Plus, since this is a trap, I will NEVER BE SYSOPPED! Yay! --High Gen. Grue 17:47, 23 April 2007 (UTC)
- You really don't have to worry, kid...-- herr doktor needsAcharge [scream!] 17:50, 23 April 2007 (UTC)
Rc for admin
He's pretty good. —Braydie 20:59, 23 April 2007 (UTC)
- I would never trust someone who is a fan of Seu Jorge. -- herr doktor needsAcharge [scream!] 21:01, 23 April 2007 (UTC)
- Yeah. But he's really cool. —Braydie 21:01, 23 April 2007 (UTC)
Seu Jorge for admin
Because our count of admins who can record Bowie covers in Portuguese stands at a dismal zero. —rc (t) 21:37, 23 April 2007 (UTC)
- Raising one finger in a very - I mean VERY - discrete way. I didn't said anything!!! But I can record Bowie covers in Portuguese... --- herr doktor needsAcharge [scream!] 21:40, 23 April 2007 (UTC)
- See. This is how cool Rc is. He just takes a stand all the time. —Braydie 21:40, 23 April 2007 (UTC)
- Actually, I can understand what Seu Jorge sung over David Bowie's songs. And, differently from most of my countryfellows, I also can understand what David Bowie said previously... So you may understand why Seu Jorge pisses me so much. -- herr doktor needsAcharge [scream!] 21:45, 23 April 2007 (UTC)
Here we go. It's an untune in itself....

That nonsense. But you have to hear he giving interviews to understand the deepness of his stupidity. But he's a good actor, I give you this. -- herr doktor needsAcharge [scream!] 04:16, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
- (face-ripping giggle) If you want a Brazilian for admin, find one with a, ahem, brain. I know, I know, it's hard to find. Harder than the Giant Sloth of the Amazon. But maybe, in the middle of night, if you don't make a sound, he may be looking at you! (/face-ripping giggle) -- herr doktor needsAcharge [scream!] 04:25, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
