fremfedeliteNIAC Posted August 28, 2003 Posted August 28, 2003 it would be good to have like a tag under ure name if u are the winner of a competition,i.e; nEwT Winner of the Hand Drawn Fan Art Competition
TMA_1 Posted August 28, 2003 Posted August 28, 2003 whoa whoa newt cool down.lol You cant just easily flash this stuff together. first of all I suggest asking the Dune moderators what they think, they probably already have plans brewing. Second, make sure you dont run anybody down. It just seems that maybe you are too zealous to be the captain of this thing. if anybody, I think it should be the moderators, or mahdi. They know the ballpark with this stuff, and with people like mahdi, you have a lot of wisdom since he did the past dunesday.just calm down man.lol
Dunenewt Posted August 28, 2003 Author Posted August 28, 2003 Both of the Moderators and Mahdi will be busy this week. If you have a look at this thread Mahdi has already posted. I have been at this site and posted more than most members so I think I am in a position to organise something like this as I have done stuff for Fed2k in the past and I am fully able to do it again and I have even spoke with Gob about it.I am not being over zealous I am just trying to get things done because I have seen many people suggest another Dunesday in the past with nothing materialising.
TMA_1 Posted August 28, 2003 Posted August 28, 2003 dont want to argue, it is just that othe people have been planning as well, and some of them are in a better position to do so. Talk to andrew and vanguard, they are the ring leaders of this potential dunesday. not even sure it will come to pass, but if it does they are the ones to look to.It has nothing to do with how many posts you have made, it has to do with who is in a higher position of power. the reason why is because they are able to do things that you cant. Now I cant speak for them nad maybe they want you to be the leader of all of this. that is fine if so, just dont jump into it so fast. You also have to understand that people like vanguard know Dune better than almost anyone on this site. Now this is just my opinion and it isnt iron clad, maybe they htik different from me. Still though I think that has to play a part in it.
Dunenewt Posted August 28, 2003 Author Posted August 28, 2003 Read my post - I said that both Van and Andrew will be busy moving back into college this week. I welcome people's contributions but as Mahdi said earlier he will only help we won't run the whole thing so I don't see anyone else who is better placed to organise it. Being a Mod/Landsraad doesn't give you too many special powers.
TMA_1 Posted August 28, 2003 Posted August 28, 2003 it does actually, and it is also a matter of position, I just think we should wait till they are around.
TMA_1 Posted August 28, 2003 Posted August 28, 2003 nothing, it is just a matter of talking to those in power. it is an opinion, and nothing to do with you, your a cool guy and I hope you havent taken offense. you know what I htink so Ill just leave well alone. :)
Andrew Posted August 28, 2003 Posted August 28, 2003 Just thought I would add:Newt is correct that Mahdi Vanguard and I will most likely be busy for a week. Newt's enthusiasm is a good thing that will be needed for Dunesday(and preparation).TMA is correct about the whole mod thingy.Suggestions are always welcome, but they will not always be implemented.Will hopefully make a Dunesday prep thread sometime.
