- Vouch. Grim deserves a chance to prove to the people of the world that he is in fact a cuddly little teddy bear. 16:57, 5 July 2010 (BST)

- Answer: Only if you made me crat The Grimch U! E! 17:02, 5 July 2010 (BST)
- Well that's my next crat vote sorted. Real Question: Are you even vaugely up to date with wiki-events?--Yonnua Koponen Talk ! Contribs 17:03, 5 July 2010 (BST)
- the only answer to that is "Not in the slightest". Although revenant kept dropping references to it, that sly fucker. should have known he was up to something The Grimch U! E! 18:22, 5 July 2010 (BST)
- Right, I seem to recall you proposing a split of Arbitration in to Arbitration and mediation, for editting and personal conflicts respectively. It's always interested me as a policy, and would you be likely to persue this policy if you hang around?--Yonnua Koponen Talk ! Contribs 18:27, 5 July 2010 (BST)

- Question Upon your last appearance you felt that the wiki, its policies and administration team were inherently broken (probably massively paraphrasing and distorting you here, but hey). Has anything changed in the intervening time, or do you still feel only a complete restructuring of the wiki is the only solution? --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 17:07, 5 July 2010 (BST)
- Against - Too soon. Does not meet criteria. Spam bid. --Thadeous Oakley 17:39, 5 July 2010 (BST)
- You I vaguely remember. Something about fucking sheep. I wouldnt accept your approval anyway The Grimch U! E! 18:00, 5 July 2010 (BST)
- Vouch – Wait, do I have to do this or is it assumed since I made the nomination? ᚱᛁᚹᛖᚾᚨᚾᛏ 18:14, 5 July 2010 (BST)
- Vouch - I'm at your disposal, Dark Overlord of the wiki... -∞ Poodle of Doom ∞ 18:36, 5 July 2010 (BST)
- Vouch - Where do I have to sign for this.--Thari TжFedCom is BFI! 18:40, 5 July 2010 (BST)
- Vouch - No, seriously 100% VOUCH! --Honestmistake 18:48, 5 July 2010 (BST)

- Vouch - Whatever his past, Grim has proven that he cares about this wiki and has its best interests at heart. ~ AphelionT 19:58, 5 July 2010 (BST)

User:Revenant
Two can play at this game. I only accept if revenant accepts. Put that in your pipe and smoke it. The Grimch U! E! 16:49, 5 July 2010 (BST)
- Sigh. But I just archived it. I'll stop editing a while, so you two can come to an understanding. --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 16:52, 5 July 2010 (BST)
Accept – HARH! Fine! You'll rue this day, you bastard. :P ᚱᛁᚹᛖᚾᚨᚾᛏ 16:56, 5 July 2010 (BST)

Any questions? ᚱᛁᚹᛖᚾᚨᚾᛏ 17:13, 5 July 2010 (BST)
Questions, vouches, et cetera
- Vouch. Revenant has shown himself to be commited and dedicated, and has a strong sense of right and left. 16:53, 5 July 2010 (BST)
- Question - Would you do a coup? A coup, would you do?--Yonnua Koponen Talk ! Contribs 17:00, 5 July 2010 (BST)
- Considering I advised against the original, and predicted the result, I'm going to say the answer to this should be self evident. The only method of government overthrow I support is via anarchy/direct democracy, not tyranny. ᚱᛁᚹᛖᚾᚨᚾᛏ 17:05, 5 July 2010 (BST)
- Real Question - What areas of the wiki do you think need imporvement?--Yonnua Koponen Talk ! Contribs 17:06, 5 July 2010 (BST)
- I will answer your question by directing you to my #campaign statement. ᚱᛁᚹᛖᚾᚨᚾᛏ 17:13, 5 July 2010 (BST)

- Abstain - Moar work at the admin sections plz. --Thadeous Oakley 17:41, 5 July 2010 (BST)
- Also does not meet criteria. Spam bid. --Thadeous Oakley 17:44, 5 July 2010 (BST)
- I've been busy. I now have more time on my hands and am getting to work on some projects I've nto had time for. If elected, I will probably work on as many fixes and reforms as I can, and then drop back to a general "maintenance" level of activity. I do already have pretty much the "Drama Pages" watched and know a lot more about wiki software and this wiki in particular than probably half the currently serving sysops. For what that's worth. ᚱᛁᚹᛖᚾᚨᚾᛏ 17:57, 5 July 2010 (BST)
- Also does not meet criteria. Spam bid. --Thadeous Oakley 17:44, 5 July 2010 (BST)
- Vouch – Now we are tied again, fucker. i still haven't forgiven you for this. Expect something epic The Grimch U! E! 18:20, 5 July 2010 (BST)
- Against -∞ Poodle of Doom ∞ 18:37, 5 July 2010 (BST)
- Vouch because bringing Grim back might be just about the most positive thing anyone has done around here since the crotchety old git left ;) --Honestmistake 18:50, 5 July 2010 (BST)
- Vouch - Simply because you are the number one person I love to do voiceover work for when you are drunk and can't figure out a mic.--THE Godfather of Яesensitized, Anime Sucks Yalk | W! U! WMM| CC CPFOAS LOE ZHU | Яezzens 19:17, 5 July 2010 (BST)
- Vouch - I know Revenant well, and I can say that he cares about the rules, not just following them but also questioning and reforming them when necessary. Moreover, he's cool-headed, fair, not afraid to stand up for what he thinks is right, and not afraid to back down when he's wrong. Also, he has extensive wiki experience, not just with the UD wiki but also with other wikis, and as such he can provide an objective outsider's point of view that the sysop team would otherwise lack. In short, he's an excellent choice. ~ AphelionT 19:58, 5 July 2010 (BST)
- Follow them rulz! -∞ Poodle of Doom ∞ 20:06, 5 July 2010 (BST)
- Incidentally, he did follow the rules! If you look at the vandalism policy page, his actions were not in violation, but this is an argument for that page, not this one. ~ AphelionT 20:13, 5 July 2010 (BST)
- For what he was originally charged with. Regardless, he still recieved a warning for vandalism. You can't dispute that. -∞ Poodle of Doom ∞ 20:24, 5 July 2010 (BST)

- What's even funnier is that he recieved a warning for something unrelated to what was originally brought up in A/A. -∞ Poodle of Doom ∞ 20:05, 5 July 2010 (BST)
- I am a political prisoner and the victim of sysop bias. Hence my running against psyop corruption. Consider the source: I have never even been brought to A/VB before, whereas the ruling sysop is not only involved in the case but has a history of being brought there. (Also, as Poodle.) ᚱᛁᚹᛖᚾᚨᚾᛏ 20:11, 5 July 2010 (BST)
