Was there really 104 bodies in the 14 scenes of the “Prolog”?

Kevan: Concierge he/him

There were a lot of rolls above five.

4+7+10+7+2+10+8+7+6+9+10+4+6+5+9 = 104

Luckily for me, Jupiter voted against a non-existant scene.  RODLAN, not ROLDAN.

Rodlen: Idle

18-03-2009 01:15:52 UTC

Oh, and Kevan, you voted against RODLEN.

Wow.  Typos love me.

Best Scene: The Cops Never Win
(Reason: Could be put together really well, especially if done evasive gun-fu style.)

Worst: Crossfire
(Reason: Almost the same opening premise as The Cops Never Win, but with a poorer execution.)

We’re just “voting on which Scene”, we aren’t “stating the exact title of which Scene”.

Rodlen: Idle

18-03-2009 18:45:47 UTC

However, you have to vote on scenes that actually exist.  As “ROLDAN WUZ HARE” and “RODLEN WUZ HARE” don’t actually exist, they wouldn’t be counted.  And, as obvious typos can only be fixed in the ruleset…

It’s still obious which scene they voted for, whether they spelled it right or not

Influenza: Idle

there are no exact rules on the voting process. It does not state that you have to vote for both parts in one comment, also if ‘RODLAN WUZ HARE’ and ‘RODLEN WUZ HARE’ are not scenes, then they have not yet placed their vote for a worst scene, since they have not voted for a scene to be the worst. in my opinion there is nothing to stop them commenting their vote for worst scene using the ‘correct’ spelling.

Kevan: Concierge he/him

So long as it’s unambiguous which scene the Scripter being voted for, it’s a vote. I could have voted for “that scene with the monocle” - that sort of vote would be a bit annoying to tally, but there’s nothing in the rule that says I have to give the Scene name.

Your own votes of “Too Quiet” (actual scene had a full stop at the end) and “Crossfire.” (actual scene had no full stop) are also fine.

We should have a CfJ about it! I miss the days when Call for Judgement ruled BlogNomic . . . actually I hated several things about those days, especially when anonymous CfJ got abused so much that we had to eliminate him. But it all feels nostalgic now.

Rodlen, the votes against you are valid, else I open a big can of whoop-ass the next time you attempt to create a Scene. You know what I’m saying, people who have read the Ruleset carefully enough.

I declare voting to be closed.

The best scene was Recurring Villain by Gnauga (4). The worst scenes were RODLAN WUZ HARE by Rodlen (4), and Crossfire by SingularByte (4). Adjusting Popularity now…
