The Mana World Forums

Why I voted yes:

- I like his attitude to the game, he want to help and he is good at it. He seems a nice person and I never saw him being rude to others just the opposite. If he get elected and choose to contribute he can do it even as a GM, MrGrey is also learning and contributing and he is a GM, he cannot be a developer while he is a GM but he can contribute as much as he want to. So that is not an objection in his case, tux WAS a dev. he is not one right now so there is not problem on that.
- We need an European or Asian GM to cover a different time zone and he happens to fill that. We are 3 active GM in game right now and we are all in about the same time zones.
- He speak German and English so another bilingual GM is also a great addition. (If only we find a Portuguese/Brazilian GM I would be even more happy)

Good luck tux

Moved the discussion about whether or not people should be both GM and developer to a new thread in player talk.

The reasons aren't applicable to ex-developers anyway. But when it comes to ex-developers, you have to keep in mind that the trust relationship between developers and game masters is just as important as the trust relationship between players and game masters. When a developer left the team because they couldn't get along with the rest of the team (or was kicked out), the trust relationship is damaged. Such a person should not become a game master. But when a developer left the dev team on friendly terms, there is no reason why that person should not be a GM.

I do not know any details about how and why tux9th left the development team.

I vote yes because he are a very happy guy, and good player, help much the players. He really deserves this spot.

i vote yes.

Jenalya and Frost quote "the European timezone"
There are a lot off players around that timezone.
I see past years more (new) players from european country's.

I had to remove some posts.

This thread is about tux9th, not about meway.

What more can I say? All good characteristics which have been mentioned I agree with whole heartedly. I have not personally witnessed any impatient or inappropriate behavior at all. tux9th holds the skills and knowledge to be a GM already and cares about new players and the support of activity in all areas including Tulm. Voted Yes ^^

I voted yes, but it appears other players beat me to the punch for reasons why. I have been saying for awhile to some friends ingame that it is ideal to have more GMs that can cover more timezones. It would be best to have a GM on at all times. There are a considerable amount of players in Europe, and it seems to be a growing demographic. So far tux9th has not disappointed me as a friend ingame, I have had no reason to not trust him or his abilities to take on a greater role in TMW. Good luck, tux!

vote yes XD

i vote yes

I choose to yes.

Good luck.

Finally, I've made 20 posts in my new account name. Therefore, what I typed below stands, and my vote has been cast.

Well, I vote yes for tux9th, but I must let you know that I can't tick any box. Can someone get in contact with me and let me know that my vote has been counted? It doesn't show up for me. I'm using a linux, and don't know if it still has buttons to choose yes/no. (no longer a problem)

Also, I have a proxy vote by aelistarr, but if needed, she can be contacted in game. Also a "Thanks" to tux9th from Aelistarr too. I don't know what for, but knowing tux9th, it'd be from being helpful somewhere some time. Hence, why my vote, and Aeli's, is a yes.

It was highlighted to me that it is possible that I could add comments in the forums to up my comments to twenty, and in one sense, I'd like to do this, but isn't the reason I comment. I can't do that for JUST that reason, but if in the chance I reach 20 comments in the process, then I may re-look at this. Best of luck to you, tux9th. I comment because I like to comment, and I enjoy the perspective of others, even if they differ to me . . . well, most of the times . . . ask my sweetheart. lol

I see. Thanks anyway. It's ashame I was away for so long. Life's like that though.

to Speiros, Max and all who have not 20 posts:

This is not an election, this is a poll. So that even if you cannot express your opinion with a +1 in any of the choice, your words have an importance, maybe the most important one.
