Various Updates

First, yes I know my nickname for Krusty is krap. But the guy's from Denmark! What else can I do? Call him Hamlet? There's not much to work with here! And Eliza Dushku shouldn't be on that list anyway. On that list, apart from Eliza, I've heard of Viggo Mortensen (only 1/2 Danish), Brigitte Nielsen, Sandi Toksvig (who doesn't count because she sounds more English than I do these days), plus more than I care to admit from the "models" list. I'm stuck. Please send in alternative suggestions.

Second, yes I know Elliot the Obnoxiously Thick voted "neutral" rather than "Oppose" but I'm sure he will come around. The only reason he has been editing again at UESP is because he got blocked at Wikipedia (about time too). The "questions" he posed for Herschel were pretty transparent anyway and boiled down to EtOT asking "This is what I want to happen. You agree with me, don't you?"

Third, see previous point. I know he got blocked again and I know he responded in a typically childish way. Look people, head on over to WP and laugh at EtOT's contributions. I may highlight the funnier examples of EtOT being a moron but it's only more of what we have all come to know and love about the world's biggest idiot.

Fourth, I mean it - I won't be voting on the admin election. I don't post on UESP and I am not going to break that vow now somebody capable of doing the job has come up for election.

Still not Interested?

Question for the day: In the light of Herschel's admin nomination, is the Masked Template Guru regretting his decision to deny wanting to be an admin? Surely he would have been first choice without that post and without his Joram excursion?

Wow - that second link is to my second ever post. How time flies!

Herschel for Admin?

Wow. I had been about to post another "stop being quiet" post (and yes, I know Aliana came back and was annoying again but she's already gone away again so there's no point). Instead, Southern Belle nominates Herschel for admin!

First, in case anybody hasn't got it, "Herschel" refers to "Herschel Shmoikel Pinchas Yerucham Krustofski", which is Krusty the Clown's full name (from The Simpsons). It's a shit nickname and I hope to come up with something funnier, but there are no famous Danish clowns - something I hope Krusty doesn't rectify.

Two "yay" votes so far. Southern Belle obviously voted yes as nominator, and Corevette789 decided to vote without waiting for Herschel's responses to the questions - not that they are likely to tell us anything we don't already know. Except the recipe one.

I won't be voting, but if I did it would be a "yes". Krusty obviously knows what he is doing and has spent more time checking stuff than anybody with the possible exceptions of TGD and Pious. The one concern is over his standard of English, but that was more a concern for the patroller role than admin, where the emphasis is on trustworthiness and sense than spelling.

He is certain to be confirmed. The only "nay" vote will come from EtOT, and even he might not bother since the result is a foregone conclusion.

Anarchasshole

I feel I ought to say that two of Anarchasshole's posts were deleted with extreme prejudice yesterday. I don't like censorship but after 10 minutes trying to work out what the fuck he was trying to say, I gave up.

AA - either learn to write or fuck off.

Actually, just fuck off. Thanks.

Not Interested

Okay people, note the title of the blog. UESP Watch. Despite my earlier comment I'm not renaming it to Elliot Watch so please stop sending me details about him getting blocked and spanked on Wikipedia.

Yes, it was very funny and yes he's exactly the same over there as he is at UESP and here but it's not relevant. I'm posting this once to make sure you know I won't be posting again.

For those of you interested, all I'm going to say is that I've told you his WP name once before so you can go and see for yourselves.
