Uncyclopedia talk:Top10 06

Whenever I try to vote, I type in #{{u|GAMESPOT=666}}, but it shows up on the preview as [[User:{{{1}}}|{{{1}}}]]. What is this, and am I doing everything wrong? --GAMESPOT=666 23:43, 2 January 2007 (UTC)

Hmm, testing... Braydie , [[User:{{{1}}}|{{{1}}}]]. I have no idea why it's doing this. Because it is you can sign the article by typing [[User:GAMESPOT=666|GAMESPOT=666]] —Braydie at 23:50, 2 January 2007 (UTC)

Got it to work, but I had to use #[[User:GAMESPOT=666|GAMESPOT=666]]. --GAMESPOT=666 23:52, 2 January 2007 (UTC)

Ok cool, vote away! —Braydie at 23:54, 2 January 2007 (UTC)

It's trying to assign the parameter {{{GAMESPOT}}} the value 666 and not giving any value to the parameter {{{1}}} which is the one that matters. Use {{u|1=GAMESPOT=666}}: GAMESPOT=666 --Sir Volte KUN Talk (+S NS CM Bur. VFP VFH) 23:56, 2 January 2007 (UTC)

I replaced all of the #[[User:GAMESPOT=666|GAMESPOT=666]]s with {{u|1=GAMESPOT=666}}s, if anyone cares. -- §. | WotM | PLS | T | C | A 17:07, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

Ahh, yeah, good work Volte and Squiggle. —Braydie at 17:09, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

You know what would be weird? Uncyclopedia is the worst winning the best article of 2006. --General Insineratehymn 22:04, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

When does the voting close? --The Acceptable  Cainad  (Fnord) 22:24, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

voting will probably close around the time the PLS starts (Jan 14).--<<>> 22:41, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

Hey, wait -- wasn't Washington and Lafayette featured? Granted, it moved like a sloth with cement shoes . . .--Procopius 14:34, 5 January 2007 (UTC)

10 Votes?

That's it? Madness! I need at least 15, maybe 20.--Sir Modusoperandi ^Boinc! 04:29, 5 January 2007 (UTC)

Yeah, I know. This was incredibly hard. Next year will be worse, however, as we'll have 365 articles to choose from...--<<>> 12:58, 5 January 2007 (UTC)

I try to think positive; maybe I'll be dead by then.--Sir Modusoperandi ^Boinc! 14:18, 5 January 2007 (UTC)

To keep things sane next year, I suggest a requirement for Top Ten nomination, like setting a minimum score of 18 (or 20, or 22, etc.) on VFH to make it to finals. I love Total Fucking Asshole Server, but I can't believe Horton Hires a Ho has only three votes; it was far and away the most popular thing I saw on VFH this year. And it certainly deserves to be in an end-of-the-year list of our best work.--Procopius 14:41, 5 January 2007 (UTC)

I'm a bit shocked as well. But maybe it was one of those articles that's only funny for a week. Dunno. The public has spoken, tho. --Sir Todd GUN WotM MI UotM NotM MDA VFH AotM Bur. AlBur. CM NS PC (talk) 14:46, 5 January 2007 (UTC)

I think putting a minimum requirement based on score would be a bad idea, since scores are naturally going to increase over time as Uncyc gains more and more users. There's also the fact that an article is likely to get a higher score if it just misses being the top score and follows a really funny one, like what happened to UnNews:RIAA CEO discusses the analog hole after MoneySign accidentally featured Voynich Manuscript. A limiter might be a good idea, but not just on score... maybe on rating on the page itself. User:Wehpudicabok/sig 04:27, 16 January 2007 (UTC)

I fink I skrewd up?

I think I screwed up all my votes. . . can I have more votes? #your name

Class of 3000

Somebody added an article to the list that wasn't featured. I took the liberty of taking it out. User:Wehpudicabok/sig 05:33, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for that. —Braydie at 11:57, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
