your sirens need work
 <Roy_Koopa> 
they do?
 <Roy_Koopa> 
huh
 <Roy_Koopa> 
I wonder where a good siren shop is around here
 
Chiaki_Nanami exists.
 <Lakituthequick> 
nintendo sells wii u's
 <Roy_Koopa> 
hello pi
 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
I probably won't be awake enough to survive the entire meeting but I'll see what I can do.
 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
Unless, of course, this meeting is going to cover 'Shroom Awards, in which case I need to attend.
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
we're hopefully finishing the review so yeah
 <Roy_Koopa> 
22 did a pretty good job last week anton
 
Anton{Politoed} gives 22 a treat
 <SHOUTMON> 
...
 
Anton{Politoed} scratches under your chin
 <Uniju> 
oh are we doing shroom awards
 <Uniju> 
time to launch minecraft
 <Roy_Koopa> 
is 22 a cat now
 <Lakituthequick>

Hi Edo
 <Gabumon> 
hi
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
it's time
 <Roy_Koopa> 
I was about to say "anton thats your cue"
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
so hey here we are at potentially the last real AC meeting unless we panic later on and realize that we forgot something
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
because after this review every decision is made by the core staff or can be quickly OK'd on the forum
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
so, !
 <Meta_Knight> 
hype
 <Roy_Koopa> 
get hyped everyone
 <SonicMario> 
last meeting hype?
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
with that, we continue where we left off; it looks like U6 was finished so we're onto U7
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
Favorite Community LPer (Dragonfreak, Crocodile Dippy, Edo, Freakworld, GBAToad, LN1, NEXandGBX, Puddin, Vommack)
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
this award is entirely new
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
I have all links to each nominee's stuff and it will be included in the dossier to view alongside the polls
 <Uniju> 
did we standardize what we call edo
 <Roy_Koopa> 
for consistency should it be Edofenrir or just stay Edo
 <Uniju> 
i remember something about that last week
 <Roy_Koopa> 
ninja'd
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
yeah I saw it as Mr. Edo, but, edo's here this week to say which one is gr8
 <Lakituthequick> 
Last week we said Mr. Edo i think
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
also, F* for df
 <Gabumon> 
Mr. Edo works fine
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
ok
 <Roy_Koopa> 
and there we have it
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
are there any other concerns about this award
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
any other nominees that we may have looked over, etc.
 <Meta_Knight> 
nah
 <Lakituthequick> 
not atm
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
onto U8 then
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
Favorite Mafia Game 2015-2016 (Awards Mafia V (Superchao, MCD, Smasher), Roy's Mafia (Roy), Oracle of Seasons Mafia (BMB), Undertale Mafia (Nysic & Stargazing), The Longest Day, The Shortest Mafia (GBAToad), One Base, No Toppings (Tantusar), Paper Mafia 64 (Meta Knight), The Longest Day, The Shortest Mafia 2 (GBAToad), Everyone Is Mafia Mafia 2 (Roy),
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
'Shroom Mafia III (Stooben), Nyrie's Meme(ish) Mafia (Marie))
 <Lakituthequick> 
probably go for full host names
 <Roy_Koopa> 
woo I'm in there
 <Lakituthequick> 
you are
 <Tailmon> 
oh i'm here
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
even for BMB who never goes by Baby Mario Bloops anymore?
 <Lakituthequick> 
he doesn't?
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
not that I'm aware of
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
I think it's just a flat acronym now
 <Lakituthequick> 
when did that happen
 <Roy_Koopa> 
nobody calls him baby mario bloops anymore
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
I vaguely remember it from like months ago
 <turb> 
hasnt it been years by now
 <Lakituthequick> 
well its just shorter yeah but
 <turb> 
that he just goes by the acronym and doesnt like the full thing
 <Lakituthequick> 
ah
 <Roy_Koopa> 
and since I'm here could I be Roy Koopa since I kinda go by that sometimes
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
ok
 <Roy_Koopa> 
Roy is more like my nickname not my actual name
 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
Marie should be Nyrie.
 <Lakituthequick> 
but MCD still is MrConcreteDonkey so
 <Lakituthequick> 
Marie and Nysic -> Nyrie
 <Lakituthequick> 
also
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
is that a confirmed name change
 <Lakituthequick> 
Stooben -> Stooben Rooben
 <Toadbert> 
yeah but i cant remember anyone calling him rooben in year
 <Toadbert> 
s
 <Uniju> 
his forum name is just stooben too
 <mcd> 
i think mcd is still easy enough to understand
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
yeah, the Rooben hasn't been tacked onto anything else so far
 <Roy_Koopa> 
I'm pretty sure he goes by just stooben nowadays
 <Lakituthequick> 
nyrie is pretty much the name since she announced her being trans i think
 <mcd> 
anyone who's voting on the award should know who everyone is
 <Tailmon> 
i think nyrie pretty much just goes by that now
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
ok
 <Lakituthequick> 
stooben and stooben rooben are used interchangeably on other awards too
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
this is pretty much already all-inclusive
 <Tailmon> 
and i can't remember the last time i saw rooben tacked on to stooben's name
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
bsg mafia potentially could end before polls really start up
 <Lakituthequick> 
so pick one i guess
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
so if that happens I'll just slap it on
 <Tailmon> 
i'd just change all of the stooben roobens to stooben

Mode #mwikiawards +o SMB by ChanServ
 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
Per the notion of changing every instance of 'Stooben Rooben' to 'Stooben'.
 <Roy_Koopa> 
I'm guessing this is going to become a vote but that's just me
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
moving on to U9 then
 <SMB> 
Sorry I'm late... I am going to be a bit awayish at various points throughout the meeting.
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
hi
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
Wiki Contributor Award 2016 (Mister Wu, Time Turner, Toa 95, Walkazo, Baby Luigi, LeftyGreenMario, Niiue, Megadardery, Borp, Lindsay151, Mario jc, Tucayo, Glowsquid, LinkTheLefty, RandomYoshi)
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
everyone's mario wiki pages will be linked in the dossier
 <Lakituthequick> 
LeftyGreenMario is Bazooka Mario on the wiki but LGM on every other venue
 <Roy_Koopa> 
Lindsay151 > L151
 <Lakituthequick> 
L151
 <Gabumon> 
uh
 <Gabumon> 
that sounds less recognizable than before
 <Tailmon> 
did she really change her name to that
 <Roy_Koopa> 
yes
 <turb> 
has she completely dropped usage of the old name
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
| [[User:L151|Lindsay151]] ||
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
is how I have it on the dossier
 <turb> 
i would be ok with that to be hoenst
 <Tailmon> 
iiiiiiiiin this case i would be ok with that
 <Lakituthequick> 
che changed it in 2013
 <SMB> 
I agree with that formatting
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
| [[User:Bazooka Mario|LeftyGreenMario]] ||
 <Roy_Koopa> 
her forum name is still Lindsay151 but she's barely on there
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
also for recognizability
 <Tailmon> 
idk i still find lindsay151 more recognizable
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
drawing out the names like this isn't just to be pedantic
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
it's so people know who they're voting for
 <SMB> 
I agree with all of that
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
which is why lgm is staying lgm
 <Tailmon> 
you could still just click the link to find out who it is but
 <Tailmon> 
___________
 
Meta_Knight has left irc.darkmyst.org:6697 (Remote host closed the connection)
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
and in all instances anyways if those individuals want to be listed as something different they are free to contact us and change it
 <Tailmon> 
for now i'm fine with leaving those two as is
 <Roy_Koopa> 
the way it's written in the dossier seems fine
 
Meta_Knight has joined #mwikiawards
  
Mode #mwikiawards +o Meta_Knight by ChanServ
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
additionally, we're also looking over whether the nominees are solid and we're not missing anything
 <Lakituthequick> 
i do say change it in the future though
 <Tailmon> 
i might not be here now
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
I'm taking that as U9 is fine, so, !
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
U10
 <turb> 
i wouldn't change it in the future unless the individuals contact us tbh
 <turb> 
anyway u10
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
Outstanding Community Achievement Award (Porplemontage, Super Mario Bros., Twentytwofiftyseven, Walkazo, Gamefreak75, Turboo, Crocodile Dippy, Anton, Superchao, Smasher, Yoshi876, Mario4Ever, Stooben, RandomYoshi, Tucayo)
 <Lakituthequick> 
also a thing on 2257 vs Twentytwofiftyseven
 <Lakituthequick> 
which differs across the awards
 <Roy_Koopa> 
Twentytwofiftyseven is his username but we call him 2257
 <Roy_Koopa> 
which takes precedence
 <Lakituthequick> 
22 is here
 <SHOUTMON> 
uh
 <SHOUTMON> 
its fine to write it 2257
 <Lakituthequick> 
also in s10
 <Lakituthequick> 
next is tucayo
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
Tucayo is Tucayo
 <Lakituthequick> 
who's henry tucayo clay on the wiki
 <Lakituthequick> 
but the former is used everywhere else awahin
 <Lakituthequick> 
*again
 <Roy_Koopa> 
henry tucayo clay is his username, but we all call him tucayo
 <Roy_Koopa> 
again, which takes precedence
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
so what's the standard
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
what are we doing
 <SMB> 
I'd bet that he'd probably want to go with Tucayo
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
ok
 <turb> 
is there even a standard
 <Roy_Koopa> 
the only person who calls him htc is wildgoosespeeder
 <turb> 
i just assumed we were going with whatever the individual preferred in most cases
 <Lakituthequick> 
seems like henry is not used anywhere in the awards list
 <Roy_Koopa> 
everyone else uses tucayo
 <Lakituthequick> 
so
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
is the award solid
 <Uniju> 
was there ever even a point when people called him anything other than tucayo
 <turb> 
or just goign with their most recognizable name if they arent around
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
are the nominees fine
 <turb> 
i think it's solid
 <Lakituthequick> 
just tucayo it is
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
can we focus on that a little more
 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
The nominees are fine.
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
gr8
 <Lakituthequick> 
anton vs hypnotoad
 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
Wait, wait!
 <turb> 
no one needs to be removed i don't think
 <turb> 
beyond m4e who's already gone
 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
What about MCD?
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
last meeting it was about making the names full
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
now it's user preference
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
what's the standard
 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
MCD is not a nominee.
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
if we're going to draw this full review which takes typically 2 meetings into lasting like 6
 <Tailmon> 
ok i'm here again
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
we need to know what we're doing to make it take this long
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
what are we doing
 <Toadbert> 
will be gone
 
Rick_Sanchez appears
 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
What I'm saying is that I think that MCD should be added.
 <Tailmon> 
i was going to suggest mcd but last time he didn't even want on i think?
 <Rick_Sanchez> 
so are we like
 <turb> 
i know
 <turb> 
i thought we were uh
 <Rick_Sanchez> 
adding nominees at this point
 <Tailmon> 
i do think he's a good choice for the award though
 <turb> 
focusing on the standard right now
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
ok but let's address my questions first
 <turb> 
and not mcd
 <turb> 
idk what we're doing honestly
 <Roy_Koopa> 
we're kinda doing a lot of things atm
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
if no one knows what we're doing regarding this I'll just go through the list myself and make sure everyone who's on multiple awards is listed by the same name on each
 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
In that case, the award is solid and well-defined, and everyone who is currently a nominee deserves to be a nominee.
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
since that seems to be the base standard
 <turb> 
i guess that's fine
 <Tailmon> 
sorry i'm lagging a bit
 <mcd> 
i felt like i hadn't really done much last year, yeah
 <Rick_Sanchez> 
yeah the nominees are fine
 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
You became a forum moderator this year, though.
 <turb> 
it's like "user preference takes priority, defaulting to full name if not specified from them"
 <turb> 
or soemhting
 <mcd> 
yeah
 <Rick_Sanchez> 
but like i have the feeling that we're not supposed to be adding any in the full review?
 <mcd> 
i dont really mind either way
 <turb> 
honestly as long as everyone has the same name on every award it's good enough
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
that's a good standard turb
 <turb> 
thanks
 <turb> 
also iirc the opposition to adding nominees to the full review last(?) meeting
 <turb> 
was because we had like -2 people here and voting on things
 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
Okay!
 <Raiko_Chaorikawa> 
hi
 <turb> 
its up to anton/edo/22 ultimately though
 <Raiko_Chaorikawa> 
sorry, got caught up in stuff
 <Raiko_Chaorikawa> 
i'm here now
 <Tailmon> 
i think that was just because like four people attended last week
 <Meta_Knight> 
i had to feed my stupid dog
 <Meta_Knight> 
i'm back though
 <Lakituthequick> 
your dog is not stupid for wanting food though
 <Lakituthequick> 
anyway
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
so about mcd
 <Roy_Koopa> 
there were actually like 10 people but it was very quiet last week
 <Tailmon> 
there seems to be more this week so we could make actual decisions now i think
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
the previous year he opted to be taken off this award
 <Rick_Sanchez> 
fake news director forum moderator community's favorite hat
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
has there been anything in this last year that changes his mind on being included
 <Rick_Sanchez> 
or ex fake news director i dunno
 <Tailmon> 
he became a forum mod
 
Stooben has joined #mwikiawards
  
Mode #mwikiawards +o Stooben by ChanServ
 <Roy_Koopa> 
no he's still the director
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
I mean I'm sure I can draft a list, but, spitballing
 <Tailmon> 
and just said he was fine either way two minutes ago
 <Rick_Sanchez> 
mcd
 <Rick_Sanchez> 
Speak.
 <Meta_Knight> 
he's a forum mod now but i don't know if that changed his mind
 <Raiko_Chaorikawa> 
mcd will never stop being the fake news director
 <Raiko_Chaorikawa> 
he'll have the job in 2020
 <mcd> 
you're probably right
 <Raiko_Chaorikawa> 
fake news is under his lifetime rule
 <Rick_Sanchez> 
about what
 
Anton{Politoed} sits on stooben
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
anyways I think we can vote:
 <mcd> 
i enjoy directing it too much
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
Vote: Add MrConcreteDonkey to U10 Outstanding Community Achievement Award? (y/n/a)
 <Raiko_Chaorikawa>

a
 <Tailmon> 
y
 <Rick_Sanchez> 
y
 <turb>

 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
y
 <Lakituthequick> 
i in all honesty dont know much about what he did recently so
 <Lakituthequick> 
a
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
"aaa" -Francis
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
(y_
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
)*
 <Tailmon> 
6-0-5
 <turb>

 <Tailmon> 
7-0-4
 <Stooben>

 <Stooben> 
but i'll vote y
 <Gabumon>

 <Anton{Politoed}>

 <Tailmon> 
9-0-4
 <mcd>

 <Tailmon> 
you did it mcd
 <Gabumon> 
wait, im dead, I cant vote
 <Gabumon> 
*leaves*
 <Stooben> 
rip gaiusmon
 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
That's okay Edo, that's okay.
 
Tailmon buries gabumon
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
don't worry i'll revive you
 <turb> 
awards meeting lounge thread
 <mcd> 
:)
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
anyways I believe that's it for U10
 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
:)
 <Tailmon> 
:)
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
are there any huge concerns regarding User Awards as a whole?
 <SMB> 
Yes
 <Lakituthequick> 
i had one note
 <Tailmon> 
i'm not on every award
 <Lakituthequick> 
let me fetch it
 <Tailmon> 
(nothing comes to mind for me)
 <Roy_Koopa> 
did we see the updated mafia award
 <Lakituthequick> 
u6
 <Lakituthequick> 
tfp
 <SMB> 
Oh, my "yes" was a vote for MCD's inclusion, not a concern.
 <Roy_Koopa> 
which I believe was U8
 <Lakituthequick> 
thefreshprince or TheFreshPrince
 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
Is this still going to be called 'User Awards IX', or will this be called 'User Awards I'?
 <Lakituthequick> 
(small but still)
 <Gabumon> 
the latter looks more defined
 <Tailmon> 
ok nowi will be away for awhile
 <Rick_Sanchez> 
why would it be called user awards I
 <Tailmon> 
now i
 <Tailmon> 
also per edo
 <Roy_Koopa> 
per bonesy
 <Rick_Sanchez> 
did i miss something
 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
It used to be called 'Userpedia Awards', but it is now called 'User Awards'.
 <Rick_Sanchez> 
oh wait
 <Rick_Sanchez> 
yeah
 <Rick_Sanchez> 
ok
 <Lakituthequick> 
its the same thing
 <Tailmon> 
it's the first time it's called user awards but it has most of the same awards as before
 <Lakituthequick> 
just wider
 <Lakituthequick> 
?
 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
So do we reset the counter or do we resume at IX?
 <Gabumon> 
its just a simple name change
 <Raiko_Chaorikawa> 
resume at 9
 <Tailmon> 
so i think it should still be ix
 <Roy_Koopa> 
if it were me I'd keep it IX because it's just a different name
 <Gabumon> 
it doesnt affect the content
 <mcd> 
i think it should still be ix
 <Raiko_Chaorikawa> 
it seems silly to reset the counter for just a name change
 <Tailmon> 
ok bye for now
 <Meta_Knight> 
i think it should be ix still
 <Gabumon> 
so the numbering system stays untouched
 <Rick_Sanchez> 
i don't have an opinion on this
 <turb> 
keep it at 9
 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
Okay!
 <SMB> 
I agree with keeping it at IX for continuity reasons.
 <Lakituthequick> 
keep 9
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
anything else for User Awards?
 <Rick_Sanchez> 
yes
 <Rick_Sanchez> 
ish
 <Rick_Sanchez> 
was "U1" discussed during the last meeting
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
yeah, but briefly given what's going on with it
 <Rick_Sanchez> 
ok
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
but that reminds me
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
I had a concern
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
with Issue 111 being dedicated to Walkazo, is it still viable for the separate topic for dedications to be made there?
 <Rick_Sanchez> 
the shroom thing?
 <Raiko_Chaorikawa> 
i don't see why not
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
what with the shroom advertising to use Issue 111 for that
 <Raiko_Chaorikawa> 
i'm sure - oh
 <Raiko_Chaorikawa> 
hmm
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
my concern is I don't want to make a thread and have it get 2 replies
 <Gabumon> 
ive been thinking the same thing
 <Lakituthequick> 
that would suck yeah
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
I have no problem deferring to the Shroom for this sorta thing
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
I just wanted to make sure people were ok with it
 <Gabumon> 
like, it'd be kind of strange that we're doing the same thing the shroom was doing
 <Rick_Sanchez> 
how exactly does the shroom work
 <Rick_Sanchez> 
like
 <Rick_Sanchez> 
can anyone contact you guys and be ike
 <Lakituthequick> 
didnt we discuss with shroom people about this in a past meeting
 <Gabumon> 
its an open contribution issue
 <Rick_Sanchez> 
"i made this thing"
 <Rick_Sanchez> 
and you'll be like
 <Rick_Sanchez> 
"ok"
 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
Hang on.
 <Gabumon> 
like
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
Dippy's bit will be granted extra time, longer than what a regular presentation slot would get, so people can easily use that time and space to make their own commentary regarding the dedication
 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
We have this: http://www.marioboards.com/index.php?topic=36815.0
 <Gabumon> 
people were invited to write dedications
 <Rick_Sanchez> 
so the only ones allowed to are the invited people
 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
No, this is an open invite.
 <SMB> 
No, it is open invitation.
 <Rick_Sanchez> 
oh
 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
Everybody can contribute, unless they are banned.
 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
Sorry, *anyone can contribute
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
is everyone ok with this decision?
 <Rick_Sanchez> 
okay since the shroom wants to do the same thing i guess we have no choice
 <Meta_Knight> 
yes
 
Rick_Sanchez murders SMB and dave
 <Rick_Sanchez> 
we can do the thread now
 
Chiaki_Nanami bans you from The 'Shroom.
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
ok
 <SMB> 
:'(
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
so, !
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
with that done we can transition into Shroom Awards
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
which, an intermediary bit
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
quickly
 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
Do you want me to take over for this?
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
pidgey mentioning bans reminded me (no) that this happened
 <Rick_Sanchez> 
you're dead you can't
 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
Okay.
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
Viper pulled quite a trick with the Shroom the other week
 <Gamefreak75> 
shit im here now
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
and as a result we (edo, 22, and I) agreed to bar him from doing presentations
 <Rick_Sanchez> 
?
 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
What happened does not need to be known by everybody.
 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
In short, he was a shit.
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
tl;dr he disrespected the staff and his position
 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
That's all you need to know.
 <Rick_Sanchez> 
okaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay
 <Raiko_Chaorikawa> 
pretty much
 <Meta_Knight> 
anyway
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
which lost trust in him being able to effectively create a presentation without ripping our hair out
 <Raiko_Chaorikawa> 
also, because of that
 <Raiko_Chaorikawa> 
viper was removed from all shroom awards he qualifed for
 <Raiko_Chaorikawa> 
that's automatic
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
this bar is only for this year, which can be discussed later on between staff
 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
Please don't pay more attention to this than necessary.
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
but this is basically just a notice
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
to let people know "hey this is a thing"
 <Rick_Sanchez> 
okay
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
so, !!!!!!!!!
 <Anton{Politoed}>

 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
No changes here.
 <SMB> 
ugh that smb guy
 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
Ugh, that RandomYoshi guy.
 <Lakituthequick> 
👍
 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
Why won't he stop?
 <Meta_Knight> 
what do you prefer to be called by
 <SMB> 
Lel
 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
RandomYoshi is fine since that's my wiki username.
 <Meta_Knight> 
okay
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
S2
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
Favorite Team (Fake News, Fun Stuff, Palette Swap, Pipe Plaza, Critic Corner, Strategy Wing)

 <Anton{Politoed}> 
crocodile dippy
 <Lakituthequick> 
👍
 <Lakituthequick> 
shoey though
 <Rick_Sanchez> 
for consistency's sake
 <SMB> 
I was going to say,
 <Rick_Sanchez> 
we should probably SMB S1 or Super Mario Bros S3
 <Lakituthequick> 
shoey/raven effect/goombas shoe15/marshal dan troop
 <SMB> 
I honestly think we should default to the most known name.
 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
Shoey is the most known name.
 <SMB> 
Not specifically the official user name, since we have more of a chance of people... actually knowing who the nominee /is/.
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
I'll say go with Shoey
 <Roy_Koopa> 
shoey is the only really common name I think
 <Stooben> 
i feel like most of the active community just calls him that so 'shoey' is a safe bet
 <Meta_Knight> 
i agree with shoey
 <SMB> 
As for me, I'd prefer to go with "Super Mario Bros." since that is what I use to sign anything 'Shroom-related.
 <Lakituthequick> 
smb is simply an abbreviation
 <SMB> 
Director's Notes, private message responses, etc.
 <Lakituthequick> 
like ltq for me
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
are all of the nominees ok
 <Anton{Politoed}>

 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
No, nobody is missing.

Paper_Yoshi or Paper Yoshi
 <Roy_Koopa> 
does paper yoshi have an underscore in it
 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
Paper_Yoshi has an underscore character.
 <Gabumon> 
I feel like it does
 <Roy_Koopa> 
oh
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
yeah I always remember having to type out "P_Y" when talking to him
 <Gabumon> 
like, isnt his abbreviation p_y
 <Rick_Sanchez> 
yeah
 <Rick_Sanchez> 
it's p_y

do you remember it
 <SHOUTMON> 
yeah
 <turb> 
didnt we want to retitle this
 <turb> 
or was that 22's thought
 <SHOUTMON> 
but i talked about it with the shroom
 <SHOUTMON>

 <Anton{Politoed}> 
ok
 <SHOUTMON> 
"

 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
Actually hang on, I need to ask something.
 <mcd> 
yes
 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
The question is relevant to the award.
 
Roy_Koopa has left #mwikiawards
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
ok
 
Roy_Koopa has joined #mwikiawards
 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
It's a question that I have to ask Packy.
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
so do that
 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
I'm doing it right now.
 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
He just generates his Word Searches through a site.
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
ok so let's behead him
 <Meta_Knight> 
y
 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
y
 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
What I'm saying is that generating something through a site is not the same thing as actually making the image yourself.
 <Gabumon> 
his wording just now though was "used to"
 <Gabumon> 
what does he mean by that
 
Packy has joined #mwikiawards
 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
Hey Packy, we're talking about your Word Searches.
 <Packy> 
YES
 <Packy> 
MY BABIES
 <Packy> 
What's up?
 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
And about how they don't belong on Best Use of Images.
 <Packy> 
Oh :'(
 <Gabumon> 
what do you mean by you "used to" do them through an external site
 <Gabumon> 
are you not doing that anymore
 <Packy> 
I don't write the section anymore :C
 <Meta_Knight> 
oh
 <Gabumon> 
...oh
 <Gabumon> 
ok
 <Meta_Knight> 
who does
 <Gabumon> 
that explains things
 <Packy> 
I was removed after I disappeared lol
 <Tailmon> 
rip packy
 <Packy> 
I think someone took over but I forget who
 <Packy> 
I want to say Viper?
 <Lakituthequick> 
viper
 <Gamefreak75> 
lol
 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
Viper is banned now anyway.
 <Uniju> 
Lol
 <SonicMario> 
Hey Packy
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
are there any more concerns with this award?
 <mcd> 
not anymore
 <Packy> 
SONICMARIO
 <Tailmon> 
good replacement
 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
I vote we remove this if it was simply generated by an algorithm.
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
I already did
 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
Okay!
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
no need for a vote
 <Packy> 
rip my babies
 <mcd> 
can we add the algorithm to the award
 <Tailmon> 
bye packy
 <Tailmon> 
favorite algorithm
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
S8
 <Packy> 
pi's favorite award
 <Chiaki_Nanami>

Packy: How's my Escape From the Kitty buddy?
 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
This is a fantastic award and I have no qualms with it.
 <Lakituthequick> 
i had a note on this but it disappeared over the course of the meeting so
 <Meta_Knight> 
it looks fine to me
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
gr8
 <Tailmon> 
grs8
 <SMB> 
Wait,
 <Packy> 
I'm doing pretty good, rowl buddy ヽ( ◕ヮ◕)ノ How are you doing?
 <Gabumon> 
sorry for being late to the party but I have to ask
 <Packy> 
And I don't have any problems with this one I think
 <Lakituthequick> 
* record scratch *
 <Gabumon> 
why is antons section both on this and on the image award?
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
it's a written advice column along with art
 <Lakituthequick> 
both writen and an image?
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
was my understanding
 <Gabumon> 
ok
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
because S7 and S8 aren't a dichotomy it effectively fits into both
 <Gabumon> 
makes sense
 <SMB> 
It may not apply directly this year, but perhaps it is important to clarify: which award would a section like Word Search actually qualify for if nominated?
 <Gabumon> 
ok, carry on

Roy_Koopa has joined #mwikiawards
 <Roy_Koopa> 
sorry connection died
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
there's no shroom award that it can fit into
 <SMB> 
That's something that might have to be kept in mind in future years in case this becomes a bigger problem.
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
what's the problem, though
 
Smg2daisy has joined #mwikiawards
 <SMB> 
Not specifically a "problem," there's probably a better way to put it, but... something to keep in consideration
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
ok
 
Roy_Koopa has left irc.darkmyst.org:6697 (Client Quit)

Favorite Special Issue (Issue XXX (30), Holiday Issue 2009, Holiday Issue XLV (45), Issue L (50), Issue 64, Holiday Issue LXIX (69), Issue LXXV (75), Holiday Issue LXXXI (81), Issue LXXXVIII (88), Awards Issue XC (90), Holiday Issue XCIII (93), Issue 100, Holiday Issue 105, Issue 107, Issue 111)
 <Lakituthequick> 
identifiers on why some are special right
 <Lakituthequick> 
64, 75, 107, 111,
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
that never got done
 <Rick_Sanchez> 
Okay i was kind of waiting for this
 <Rick_Sanchez> 
were the nominees' names changed
 <Lakituthequick> 
64 = nintendo 64, 75 = gamefreak75, 107 = zeldamon, 111 = walkazo
 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
Don't forget 88 = Mario Kart 8
 <Rick_Sanchez> 
this is a question for the shroom people specifically btw
 <Lakituthequick> 
oh right
 <Lakituthequick> 
88 = mario kart 8
 <Lakituthequick> 
:yoshi:
 <Tailmon> 
mario kart 88
 <Gamefreak75> 
:doge:
 <Lakituthequick> 
in stores summer 2056
 <Rick_Sanchez> 
soooooooooo uhh
 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
Bonsey: they are going to be changed in the dossier.
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
does anyone have the renames ready and handy
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
are they going to be changed for the award
 <SMB> 
RandomYoshi, wasn't there some sort of discussion on this entire award in one of the meetings?
 <Rick_Sanchez> 
they kind of need to be changed now
 <Rick_Sanchez> 
before the dossier thing
 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
Yes, we had a discussion on this award.
 <Rick_Sanchez> 
i think?
 <SMB> 
We actually did discuss identifiers and everything in a 'Shroom Staff meeting
 <Rick_Sanchez> 
and?
 <SonicMario> 
Smasher & LTQ: If they continued the numbers that far. It'd get awkward once they reach 64
 <SonicMario> 
Heh
 <Gabumon> 
so what I'm getting out of this is
 <Lakituthequick> 
They'll just slam the console abbreviation on it.
 <Gabumon> 
the alternative names are going to be featured on the dossier
 <Tailmon> 
the 64th mk game will be called mk64
 <Tailmon> 
er
 <Tailmon> 
mk65
 <Gabumon> 
and the award will keep its current names
 <SMB> 
What I remember
 <Gabumon> 
is that correct
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
that's the questions I asked and was waiting for an answer on, yes
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
-s
 <SMB> 
Is that we actually discussed two things,
 <Lakituthequick> 
it probably is easier if the poll also includes a one or two word name
 <SMB> 
Firstly, the identifiers, and also a potential change regarding Holiday Issues being listed
 <Rick_Sanchez> 
aaaaaaand
 <SMB> 
Regarding identifiers, I think we were agreed on doing something like
 
Shy_Guy has left #mwikiawards
 <SMB> 
Issue 64 (Nintendo 64 theme)
 <Rick_Sanchez> 
yes wonderful idea
 <SMB> 
Issue 75 (Gamefreak75 theme)
 <SMB> 
erm
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
are we doing this for the award though
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
if it's just the dossier we can move on
 <Rick_Sanchez> 
tbh
 <Rick_Sanchez> 
i prefer doing it to the award as well
 <Rick_Sanchez> 
IIIIIIIIIIF everything's ready
 <Lakituthequick> 
per
 <SMB> 
Issue LXXV (Gamefreak75 theme)
 <SMB> 
I think the idea is that it would be consistent between the Dossier and the polls
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
are they all ready to go then
 <SMB> 
I don't want to speak on behalf of Pi though, because he's the one in charge of the whole 'Shroom Awards operation.
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
if so, is there a list that can be copy/pasted
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
because tick tock
 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
I could provide the themes for you right now if you want.
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
yes
 <Gabumon> 
please do
 <Rick_Sanchez> 
yeah that'd be the greatest thing ever
 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
Whilst I do this, could you bring up the other thing, SMB?
 <SMB> 
Sure,
 <SMB> 
The other thing is regarding the sheer amount of Holiday issues on this poll.
 <SMB> 
We were considering reducing it down to just the most recent Holiday issue, for a variety of reasons.
 <SMB> 
Firstly, there's really... no good identifier to distinguish all of the separate Holiday editions, since the theme is always the same each year. It's a holiday theme.
 <Rick_Sanchez> 
fair enough
 <Gabumon> 
so
 <Gabumon> 
are you considering it, or have you done so
 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
It's something I want to see happen.
 <SMB> 
I think most of the staff was on board, but
 <Gabumon> 
like, can you name the ones you want axed
 <SMB> 
All Holiday issues save the most recent one.
 <Gabumon> 
ok
 <Rick_Sanchez> 
so keep the 105 one
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
Favorite Special Issue (Issue XXX (30), Issue L (50), Issue 64, Issue LXXV (75), Issue LXXXVIII (88), Awards Issue XC (90), Issue 100, Holiday Issue 105, Issue 107, Issue 111)
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
is what it would be knocked down to
 <SMB> 
Yes.
 <Stooben> 
seems solid to me
 <SMB> 
The other reason is that it avoids the situation that would have happened next year
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
was it considered that any particular holiday issue was better than the others
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
or are we just blankly taking the most recent
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
I'm fine with either so long as it's been considered
 <SMB> 
which is actually running above the hard limit for nominees
 <SMB> 
I recommended it since it was the most recent, and was a pretty good Holiday issue anyway.
 <SMB> 
People are more likely to remember the most recent one of these.
 <Gabumon> 
ok
 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
So right now the full list is: Issue XXX (30), Issue L (50), Issue 64 (Nintendo 64 theme), Issue LXXV (Gamefreak75 theme), Issue LXXXVIII (Mario Kart 8 theme), Awards Issue XC (90), Issue 100, Holiday Issue 105, Issue 107 (Zeldámon theme), Issue 111 (Walkazo theme)
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
gr8
 <Lakituthequick> 
this remves 6 issies right
 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
Issues 30, 50 and 100 have no theme other than 'wow fancy number base ten!!!!'
 <Lakituthequick> 
Zeldámon is with á, okay.
 <Rick_Sanchez> 
okay
 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
Yes, Zeldámon.
 <Meta_Knight> 
looks good
 <SMB> 
May I recommend one more, probably minor, change?
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
I'll update the full list with that eventually
 <SMB> 
Instead of "Walkazo theme," I'd recommend "Walkazo tribute"
 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
Okay, I'm on board with that idea.
 <Stooben> 
yes please
 <Lakituthequick> 
is 'theme' needed in the others
 <Tailmon> 
good change
 <Lakituthequick> 
also yes to tribute
 <Gabumon> 
lets keep the theme for the others
 <Lakituthequick> 
okay
 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
I like the word 'theme' because I wrote it there and the IKEA-effect is srong.
 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
*strong
 <Lakituthequick> 
ikea effect?
 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
I can explain more after the meeting.
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
S10
 <Lakituthequick> 
no i know what that is but how it relates to this
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
'Shroom Person of the Year 2015-2016 (Super Mario Bros., Yoshi876, Crocodile Dippy, Mr. Edo, Anton, FunkyK38, MrConcreteDonkey, Palkia47, Toadbert101, Tucayo, Stooben, Andymii, RandomYoshi, 2257, Master Crash)
 <Lakituthequick> 
good award
 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
tl;dr you like a thing you've assembled yourself when it's in its assembled state but when you disassemble it you don't like it as much.
 <Gamefreak75> 
KALLAX
 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
Also, good award.
 <Gamefreak75> 
also the award is fine
 <Packy> 
pls pick me to win ok thank u
 <Lakituthequick> 
ah @ikea
 <Gamefreak75> 
i need to go to IKEA again some day actually
 <Packy> 
Award is A-OK with me though
 <Gamefreak75> 
i like going there
 <Tailmon> 
remove packy for being too fat
 <Tailmon> 
(this award is fine)
 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
Remove Smasher for exploding too much.
 <Gabumon> 
wow
 <Stooben> 
well...he DID eat the shroom
 <Gabumon> 
fat-shaming
 <Tailmon> 
i'm not even on the award
 <Packy> 
:'(
 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
That's why you need to be removed, Smasher.
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
is there any other concern for Shroom Awards overall
 <Tailmon> 
remove me from an award i'm not on
 <Gabumon> 
anyway, award seems fine
 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
There is one thing I want to do with the dossier.
 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
In the section of the dossier that pertains to S9, I had an idea of making it so that we have different backgrounds for the different table cells describing the special issues.
 <SonicMario> 
Make a S1(0)1 Best Smasher only to vote on exploding it
 <Lakituthequick> 
is entirely possible
 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
These backgrounds would be the backgrounds of the special issues themselves.
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
sure go for it so long as it doesn't look disgusting
 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
Okay!
 <Tailmon> 
best smasher was already shot down
 <Tailmon> 
depressing
 <Gabumon> 
wow
 <Lakituthequick> 
as was dial-up kong
 <Gabumon> 
background-shaming
 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
Edo please take a look at the dossier beforehand and if it looks disgusting please shout at me.
 <Gamefreak75> 
gavumons job isnt to shout
 <Lakituthequick> 
those backgrounds worked at the time of the issues to why wouldnt they work here
 <Gamefreak75> 
gabumons
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
User Awards dossier is almost complete, too
 <Gabumon> 
If I think it looks disgusting, I need to shout at myself first considering theyre mostly my backgrounds anyway
 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
No, that's not my concern, Ltq.
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
Chiaki_Nanami: Polls go up like a day or so before the issue goes up
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
each year the dossiers are put up when they need to be, rather than waiting for the shroom
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
is that ok again this year
 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
If this background idea is to work then we need to upload a background for Issue 111 and make some necessary changes to the .css to ensure the wiki can output the correct background. As long as we get this thing done before the polls go up, I'm fine with this.
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
polls open June 17th
 <SMB> 
Don't we already do this with the calendar template?
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
shroom goes up literally the next day
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
so
 <SMB> 
It should work to have the backgrounds from the different issues.
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
it'll just be a day before
 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
Okay!
 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
Then this is fine by me.
 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
You may proceed as usual.
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
edo, 22, and I will work on the main page polls as well, conferring with the Poll Committee as necessary
 <SMB> 
Also, I'm in support of publishing the Dossiers on the day polls go up as well.
 <Lakituthequick> 
just add background-image:url(/images/3/35/Shroomwinter.png) and its good
 <Lakituthequick> 
as style on the cells
 <SHOUTMON> 
no
 <SHOUTMON> 
wiki doesnt allow that
 <SHOUTMON> 
it has to be done through the css pages
 <Lakituthequick> 
?
 <SHOUTMON> 
you can't set background images directly in wikitext
 <SHOUTMON> 
well, you couldn't
 <SHOUTMON> 
that was like 6 years ago when i tried to do it
 <SHOUTMON> 
maybe it's changed by now
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
as for another topic, for tournaments
 <Lakituthequick> 
yeah i'm getting 'style="/* insecure input */"' so
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
it's been slowly creeping up that multiple people want to host tournaments for the same game
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
the one right now that we need help on solving is Dippy/Packy and Cirdec each wanting to host the Pokemon tournament
 <Uniju> 
im awake im awake
 <Meta_Knight> 
what do you propose we do to sort this out
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
as of now what I've told dippy and packy is to draft up a tournament stuff like we've requested of all hosts
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
and that if they do it, they get it
 <Gabumon> 
Dippy and Packy co-hosting one, cirdec hosting the other, to clarify
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
that's a thing, too
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
there's usually only 1 tournament
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
a solution would be to have 2 of them
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
but ??? do we need that
 <Packy> 
I will try to get to work with Dippy asap as soon as possible on our draft once the weekend rolls around and I am free
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
but that also brings the issue of scorning cirdec who's offered to do it before dippy/packy have
 <Lakituthequick> 
if its different gqames that it could work
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
conflict resolution, etc.
 <Gabumon> 
an idea
 <Gabumon> 
couldnt we just
 <Uniju> 
as a tournament host myself id like to say that we shouldnt allow multiple tournaments of the same game so that nobody can compete with me
 <Smg2daisy> 
Can't one of them do the Pokken, another one go for the pokemon?
 <Gabumon> 
let the people decide
 <Packy> 
i
 <Meta_Knight> 
there's not enough people for pokken anyway
 <Packy> 
actually like that idea, Edo
 <Meta_Knight> 
i've already asked in the general topic and anton made a thread
 <Lakituthequick> 
pokkdn is seperate either way though
 <Meta_Knight> 
there was like no concern for it
 <Packy> 
it's an edoa ha ha ha ha
 <Gabumon> 
like, people can decide for themselves which setup they like more
 <Packy> 
but yeah
 <Packy> 
both sides can do a draft
 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
Hey Anton I'm feeling super tired can I sleep.
 <Gabumon> 
and the one that gets the most approval gets to be "the one"
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
go for it
 <Packy> 
and have it submitted for public voting on what side works best
 <Chiaki_Nanami> 
Yay!
  
Chiaki_Nanami is now known as slepi
 <Rick_Sanchez> 
yeah letting people decide is a good idea
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
that can work
 <Rick_Sanchez> 
let's do that
 <Meta_Knight> 
that's a good idea
 <Lakituthequick> 
sleepi would work better
 <slepi> 
I know.
  
slepi is now known as sleepi
 <Lakituthequick> 
okay
 <Lakituthequick> 
yay!
 <sleepi> 
I just forgot the extra 'e'.
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
packy are there any intentions on doing a dual tournament like last year
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
Singles and then Doubles
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
or anything like that
 <Lakituthequick> 
g'night pi
 <Packy> 
should we set like a due date for the drafts or does it just have to be like whenever we can as soon as possible
 <Packy> 
Uhhhhhh
 
Shy_Guy has joined #mwikiawards
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
tournaments start in june but idk I'll say a hard limit is
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
July 1st
 <Packy> 
We haven't discussed that just yet, we were deciding on rules and stuff yesterday
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
because if anyone starts thinking about doing a tournament by that time, it's already took late to get it running
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
too*
 <Packy> 
on what stuff is banned and whatnot
 <Packy> 
as soon as I can get a hold of her I'll ask Dippy and see what she thinks
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
it generally should take a couple weeks to get sign-ups
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
then a couple more to see the tournament through
 <Meta_Knight> 
yeah
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
so long as that fits in before the end of August, gr8
 <Packy> 
we can definitely do that then
 <Packy> 
:)
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
hooray
 <Packy> 
hooray
 
Packy spews confetti all over Anton
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
another quick thing I wanted to bring up
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
http://www.marioboards.com/index.php?topic=34155.msg1656677#msg1656677
 
Anton{Politoed} is killed
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
the ceremony day schedule
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
the only changes to that that I see fit are swapping User and Shroom awards slots, which is simple enough
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
and then granting Dippy as much time as she needs
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
which I planned for just having her post it as early as she felt like
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
but I still need to talk to her about her plans for it
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
otherwise are there any wild concerns for the timing of the ceremony that should make us rethink it for this year
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
I believe this is the best we can do to accommodate having a global audience
 <Lakituthequick> 
there have been ideas to move it an hour early
 <Lakituthequick> 
the past few years
 <Lakituthequick> 
but never took off
 <Lakituthequick> 
is that still a thing or
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
we can discuss it
 <Lakituthequick> 
like it doesnt affect america and australia
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
what time did the ceremony end last year for the europeans
 <Meta_Knight> 
ehh i like it where it is but time zones
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
generally
 <Lakituthequick> 
about 4am
 <Lakituthequick> 
i think
 <Lakituthequick> 
lemme check
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
I know there's a few time zones to work with but ____
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
19:30 PDT
 <Gabumon> 
to be honest
 <Lakituthequick> 
it ended 4:35 in CEST
 <Gabumon> 
4am and 3am doesnt make too much of a difference
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
yeah that was the point last year
 <SMB> 
the host stuff on 'Shroom Awards should be changed to Pi, btw
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
this is last year's listing
 <SMB> 
oh
 <Rick_Sanchez> 
it might to some people
 <SMB> 
lel
 <Rick_Sanchez> 
i mean
 <Rick_Sanchez> 
as a vampire
 <Lakituthequick> 
its that hour of extra sleep though
 <Rick_Sanchez> 
this doesn't inconvenience me
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
like, the concern here is to accommodate large-scale
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
not make sure that one person can see the end before they have to go to bed
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
we need to consider that
 <SMB> 
« on: January 31, 2015, 08:20:16 AM »
 <Rick_Sanchez> 
well
 <SMB> 
should have looked at that first
 <Lakituthequick> 
i'm in germany at the time so i'm not affected either way
 <Rick_Sanchez> 
do we have enough people with the 4 am ending time thing
 <Lakituthequick> 
like entire europe
 <Lakituthequick> 
userpedia is down but otherwise template:users could give an indication
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
again
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
gross
 <Lakituthequick> 
yeah the database is dead
 <Rick_Sanchez> 
you know what
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
it just needs to be refreshed
 <Rick_Sanchez> 
why don't we just poll it
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
it's been happening lately
 <Rick_Sanchez> 
wouldn't that like
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
poll where
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
staff board or public
 <Lakituthequick> 
public probably
 <Rick_Sanchez> 
public would probably be better
 <Rick_Sanchez> 
if we want like
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
ok
 <Rick_Sanchez> 
maximum input
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
is it only an hour earlier than last year
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
or are there any other options being presented
 <Rick_Sanchez> 
i think an hour is fine
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
ok
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
I'll shit out a poll eventually
 <Rick_Sanchez> 
i dunno is there a limit to this
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
there's no rush on it but I won't delay
 <Lakituthequick> 
i dont know how two hours would affect los angeles so one is a good start
 <Rick_Sanchez> 
we don't want to move this to a point where like
 <Meta_Knight> 
it would be 10am
 <Rick_Sanchez> 
we have the opposite problem
 <Rick_Sanchez> 
or something
 <Meta_Knight> 
which honestly tbh feels too early
 <Meta_Knight> 
but 11am would be okay
 <Lakituthequick> 
10am and too early
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
are there any other concerns regarding like
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
anything
 <Lakituthequick> 
i remeber that
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
literally anything
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
there will be no E3 meeting
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
unless nintendo surprises us and unveils like 18 new mario games
 <Meta_Knight> 
unlikely
 <Rick_Sanchez> 
that'd be hilarious
 <Uniju> 
i'm concerned that i havent done enough work on miencraft games but im just going to blame tb for that
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
tb's been busy graduating so yeah it's completely his fault
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
I'll deduct tokens from him accordingly
 <Tailmon> 
18 new mini mario games
 <SonicMario> 
I don't care either way. But should the Mario minecraft thing be a consideration for a quick addition to Favorite DLC? Or is that not count since it's a free thing
 <Lakituthequick> 
dlc can be both free and paid so
 <Lakituthequick> 
if its optional
 <Tailmon> 
is it optional or part of an update
 <Lakituthequick> 
it can get in
 <Tailmon> 
if it's the former it counts
 <Lakituthequick> 
https://twitter.com/NintendoEurope/status/729645476987871232
 <Lakituthequick> 
So many blocks to punch! Mario and the gang are coming to #Minecraft #WiiU Edition as A free update on 18/05!
 <Lakituthequick> 
"A free update"
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
does it have a formal name
 <Tailmon> 
rip
 <Lakituthequick> 
it has
 <Lakituthequick> 
but doesnt matter
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
Super Mario Mash-Up Pack DLC
 <Lakituthequick> 
yes
 <Lakituthequick> 
its an update so
 <Lakituthequick> 
that seems to be it i think
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
I can't remember, did we include those
 <Tailmon> 
we didn't
 <Lakituthequick> 
updates are not dlc so no
 <Tailmon> 
they don't count as dlc
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
ok
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
I was looking at the list and didn't see any but I wanted to be sure
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
so gr8
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
aaaaaaaanything else?
 <Lakituthequick> 
nopes
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
well
 <Lakituthequick> 
wedidit
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
I think that's it, then
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
regular AC Meetings are concluded for this year
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
we did it
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
if there's absolutely anything else that needs to be addressed, it will be done so on the forum
 <Uniju> 
gg
 
Packy spews more confetti all over the place
 <Lakituthequick> 
:clap:
 
Packy chokes on the confetti
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
and if another meeting is ever required a mass PM will be sent about it as per usual
 
Packy falls over
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
edo, 22, and I will be working on creating the polls
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
dossiers will be getting finished up
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
tournament hosts should be getting their shit rolling out
 <Anton{Politoed}> 
everything is on track well enough
