I was just fooling around, wondering if WP:ACE2009 is a blue link. It is, sort of.

What's more interesting is that the discussion page is a blue link. Already before the final votes are in, lessons are being learned for next year.

Shouldn't we have a few more people who (judging by their posts here) believe they know how to run things better than the current ArbCom, such as Victim of Censorship?

There is a family of deer who come into my backyard every now and then to graze on the bushes and to nibble at my neighbor's flowers. They could run things better than Arbcom! ermm.gif

I suppose it would further the conception sometimes expressed on WR that ArbCom is a totalitarian entity, if we were run by a Deer Leader.

I take it that you do MC work for the Elks Club. ermm.gif

Not usually, but in this case, after reading all your horse jokes, I decided to panda to your sense of humor.


Ah, I see you have gone over your joke limit! ohmy.gif
