Aris are you getting this weird thing where everything works fine until you hit submit and then it never really loads so you hit it again and again and realize it went through the first time? I'm posting on my phone too and I've been getting that tonight.

I seriously didn't try to steer anything and you know it. This is personal and I know I won't change your mind. This is sad though.

For what it's worth: I was not influenced by shotty when I made my nth, and disagree with the call that he steered the title. It was Persivul's idea, and as someone who was there to see the game in question happen, I happen to agree with his nomination.

Same, if I hadn't forgotten about this thread, I might have nominated it myself. I was also in the game, found it hilarious.

So sorry about the multiposts!
Also, regardless of Shotty's input, I think it was a good Nom. And I feel like you know it..

Also, the rule is worded subjectively, which makes it a shitty rule.
I argue that your ruling be overturned, as it is arguable that he did not steer discussion, and that the rule be changed to say that "a user may not engage in discussion about their own nominations on potential titles."
This way it is explicit in the future, yet follows the current rules.

I, too, would
