Poll 2: Who won't be Ted?

[wHATcOLOR]

that was a close one! Nimrod's Son was eliminated. this poll will be open for 24 hours. i'm going to be out of town this weekend, back on sunday. if its possible to make a saturday poll, i will, but if not, i thank you in advance for your understanding.

[celluloid_love]

I'm pretty certain that mxzombie won't be Ted so I'll just vote now instead of waiting till later

[wHATcOLOR]

i was suprised Dead got so many votes in the first poll, i think Dead --> Ted would be great.

"i'm not Ted! I don't even look like a Ted! wah wah wah!"

however this turns out, its gonna be good.

[celluloid_love]

there's too much hostility towards Dead for him to ever truly be Ted

Ted is someone that should be well-liked by all

I just can't see Dead becoming Ted. sorry

[celluloid_love]

also, Dead posts too often to be Ted

I have a feeling it's going to come down to wally and duovamp but this is just a hunch

[neopryn]

Dead will not be Ted.

Obviously we all have different interpretations of what qualities Ted should possess, but for me, Ted is someone I respect and have either an amicable or unfamiliar relationship with.

just not feasible.

[celluloid_love]

Ted is generally a quiet, humble and respectable guy

for this reason it cannot be Dead

[neopryn]

Agreed, Dead is too abrasive to be Ted.

I'm surprised DeviousJ wasn't *******d. It's difficult not to like that guy.\

anyway, I'm only talking about the ideal Ted. If we strive for anythign less we're just leaving this whole thing open to problems laterr on

did you not see the original thread where we generated the candidates? im not sure if people agreed or not, but i said i felt strongly that certain posters who've been around are too longstanding and majestic to simply be renamed. that's why i don't like wally as a candidate, or mxzombie.

everyone can decide waht they like, those are just my views on the topic. but renaming someone isn't something to be done lightly, and it just doesn't seem right to rename most people who've been here for years. to rename devious j would be sacrilege.

[ted]

I still can't believe this

[ted]

in case anyone cares, it will be given up

[tcm]

mxzombie is majestic? i feel like i'm too uninformed to be voting at all.

I missed the thread, and you're right on that account

I was trying to think of boarders who were well-liked by the majority

you know wHATcOlor, you'd make a pretty good Ted.

[dean_r_koontz]

if it's all down to being well-liked, why didn't I, dean_r_koontz make the poll? this is insanity.

fuck, i don't know. everyone vote as you please. my thought was that you don't just go and rename someone who's been here a long time (dead being an exception in my mind).

[wally]

And you hide the dead while my friends head to die in your name.

[wally]

what a great fucking song

[tcm]

i think the well-liked thing misses the mark. posters like DeviousJ and wHATcOLOR and mxzombie are the big hitters and quarterbacks. Ted will be like the mascot. or i don't know, i'm not really into sports.

i was listening to it on the way to work. i fucking LOVE it

[neopryn]

i think that belongs on the Two Gallants board, wally.

[wally]

I can't stop listening to it. Thanks to you, I found this song/band/album. Cheers!

i hear you, i'm just saying... i don't know mxzombie at all.

[wally]

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to wHATcOLOR again.

I didn't really mean well-liked so much as I meant generally respected

can we agree that Ted should carry this trait?

no, i don't think we should. it seems to me that we all vote however we'd like, without necessarily even trying to agree upon those methods or criteria, and the person standing at the end defines what it is to be netphoria's Ted..

[celluloid_love]

well, to me it's just something that comes with the name

I can't imagine a world where Ted isn't something that's respected

names like that are reserved for people called things like Simon and Lloyd

[wally]

what happens if after a month, the general consensus is one of vast disappointment in what Ted ended up being like?
