2024 Moderation Election ***Update***

[AndrewGrant]

Speaking of gossip...

Seems pretty clear that our glorious leaders have no intent on running any fair elections. First they hold out and delay the process as long as possible; Then they start throwing around false bans against those who they disagree with; And now we have some disgusting attempt at credentialism. Next we'll just get to select between Kang and Kodos.

Add "removing valid voters who will vote against the established rule" to my list? Very lame.

Weird. I’ll check the software processing.

Hello, my name was also on the original list and now removed. Could you check it along with the others?

Cheers!

Will do.

indeed of removing computer chess politics altogether, and not having this election thing.

For the time being, I trust Ed*s words on how he is going to proceed.

Yes, Andrew, I understand you ascribe terrible bad motives to those you don't like and big yourself up as the greatest but unrecognised genius ever to have walked the planet. This involves a lot of lying, embellishing, omitting and/or twisting facts etc. etc. The me-good, others bad stuff is a sure sign of narcissism and the lying that goes with it, a sign of Machiavellianism. The bullying you organise against out-people is a sign of psychopathy. If you learn all this behaviour whilst still a youth, one dreads to imagine the sort of adult you'll turn into. My advice is to exit computer chess, just treat it as a bad formative experience in a (for some reason) dysfunctional space and try starting again elsewhere. Honest, if brutal attempt at help, btw.

Can you please re-add me as well? Maybe a general cross-check between the first list and the updated one would be good.

Yup, will do. I think the problem is/was that I got bored with all the nasty critique and bad motive accusations and didn't actually check any output at all for sense. Hence the bundles of apparent errors. I'm not exactly motivated to continue working (voluntarily) for what appears to be a lot of nasty people, with very obvious mental health disorders, to be hurling abuse at every turn.

My advice is to run a fair election or be an open dictator, but not pretend a middle-ground.

Understandable. I'll cross-check the lists and post the results, ok?

Someone kindly sent me that list, apparently Ed and HGM got left out too. I'll take another shot at it tomorrow probably.
