So what's up with the highscore boards?

Hiya. This is the wrong place to put this, or even at all. Talk to the person who suggested this idea in the first place, or talk to one of the staff about it in IM, but posting about how you never got a position won't solve anything, especially in a place where said creator can't do anything
Best regards

From what I understand, ZM intended the original thread as a gauge of interest. I'm honestly a bit confused as to why he deleted it afterwards though. I figured it would be been useful as a reference for the future if we need more managers.

It's the feedback board. I cannot comprehend your line of logic, or lack-thereof.

To sum it up before I explain anything, it was ZM's fault. Kind of. It was a misunderstanding between ZM and Zig.

When Zig originally suggested the scoreboard, he had in mind that only a few people would take care of it, as it is done on MotK. It's a format that works well, as long as those person don't get lazy. However, ZM misunderstood that, opened the thread for the "volunteers", but later realized his mistake (hence the deletion of it), as that situation would have turned much into a problem like the shmupsfarm has, where everyone opens a thread and then half of those threads never get updated. I don't know exactly what ZM and Zig talked about precisely, but I assume it was, among others, choosing people from the "volunteers" who seemed like they would stick with updating the scoreboard. I assume they chose Zengeku, Mino and Yoishi because they know them personally rather well and were sure that they wouldn't just stop updating the scoreboards. There was probably more, but I don't want to speculate too much. And apparently, as ZM said in here, the situation isn't completely resolved yet. Idk what's still missing though. I am, after all, just an outsider in this matter with a little more knowledge than most others.

In the first place, having multiple people for one scoreboard (as was the case with the volunteers) makes no sense because if you're not the OP, you can't edit the scoreboard, which means you would need to be a moderator. And having 15 extra mods for the sake of the scoreboard is just a tad ridiculous. Only a little bit. I hope I could clear up whatever questions you had regarding this. Don't feel bad about not being chosen as one of the people for the scoreboards, I assure you it's a work so boring you will fall asleep doing it.

Are you going to post the rest of your boards then?

  This post is for what happened with the highscore board incident recently, and how many opportunities were unfairly taken away. Please comment on what is right about this situation, as in, is it right to remain like tihs, to make something different perhaps? Please post on what you yourself think about this incident. This goes beyond an operating program, it goes onto what a fair program is, and this is something you'll decide.



EDIT: Meant to post on Kalas' thread

The management of the applicants was something I and ZM didn't speak about at first due to a misunderstanding, nobody that applied was qualified and showed any qualifications back then. We aren't unfairly taking away what wouldn't be given anyways, simply because this kind of management would never have passed so this kind of insinuation you're making is not just more than stupid, it's smearing wounds in a mistake 2 people made. But if you're willing to be this ego-centered then that's fine.

Your complaint is basically saying that we wanted to have a chaotic board in which anyone can do whatever board they want with 2-3 people while they wouldn't be able to edit each other's OP or they'd make multiple threads, besides this is not about giving experience or getting experience, but having experience. Which the team which was later on spoken about with me and ZM does have. We aren't saying that the earlier applicants didn't have any of this, but how we assemble the management is our business and not yours. It's also not yours to make silly insinuations and to 'boycott' an entire section, but that doesn't matter since honestly, there're many people who understand how something should be managed; who're thankfull for what we're doing so far. It's not a job but it's a task you must still have the qualifications for.

Besides, what makes you think of 'a fair' program actually? This wasn't an educating program for managing things, this was about people who already had experience; people I wanted to assemble in a list with ZM before the mistakingly, not to be taken seriously thread in question was posted. The only reason that you're acting like this is because you didn't get the moderation of the HRtP thread, which, you're not qualified for and I'll guarantree you that your childish acts so far won't ever get you a moderation role in my team. 



I agree to what Relick said about the management having been poor, but there hasn't been any bias towards any group, ZM and I only want a group which is capable of getting things around and the people I assembled all have knowledge on how scoreboards work as well as the management of them, even if the people came from specific groups their stance remains entirely neutral simply because this is a board that's open to the entire forum to post in, not one that's limited to any specific group. 

There's no 'unfair' there's only 'that's sad to hear' in the worst case, I can understand that people may not like it to hear they aren't assigned to a task here but if you got a company you want your workers to do a good job, so they have to be qualified and rated. This process is one that of course can't be seen as benefitable for everyone, simply saying it's 'unfair' because you didn't get a role means you're a hypocrite. Honestly a hypocrite, saying that you find it sad to hear that you didn't get the assignment is of course only reasonable, but if you're only aiming for a specific kind of power then you should, not in any way, be allowed to partake. Simply because this is about a working system and not about a system giving 'roles of power' away to other people. that's arrogant and selfish to think and whoever thought this way should seriously be ashamed of theirself. 

To finish it, I can post the logs I had in a private convo with you here and show exactly on what you were aiming Vex, don't be hypocrite.

If there is one thing I am not it's a hypocrite, post those logs away Zig, but if you do you better not miss a part, I've never done anything for myself, apart from eating and breathing, this is for fairness and for everyone else who was booted.

Please be civil while on the forum. Rule number 1 of the code of conduct is as follows:



If there is one thing here, it was not mutual respect. Further rule infringements will not be appreciated.
