QUOTE(Herschelkrustofsky @ Wed 21st February 2007, 1:17am)  Did the title influence the voting? I don't think we'll ever really know. I doubt it influenced the voting, but we might be accused of general-purpose sexism just for calling it that, I suppose. Women are always under more scrutiny for personal behavior than men - men are expected to be aggressive, whereas women are expected to be... I think the word is "demure," no? So we might be helping to perpetuate the cultural imbalance, maybe. Having said that, you actually left out User:Pschemp, who is female and might have gotten a vote or two! Also, Kelly Martin isn't an admin anymore...?

I am going to propose that we end the voting this Sunday, so we can make a bombastic announcement of the results, and offer nerds from all over the world a wholesome alternative to watching the Oscars. It looks like SlimVirgin is going to take the honors once again, with a strong showing by Cyde. Past favorite Snowspinner has apparently left the field, unable to sustain the kind of vigorous and robust asininity that made him such a formidable contender in last year's competition.
After Kelly Martin was disqualified, as she is not presently an admin, there seems to be nothing holding SlimVirgin back from a stunning victory in the Miss Incongeniality Pageant. The only cliffhanger is the Straight Shooter competition, with Tawker and Ashibaka running neck and neck. Cast your votes now! The excitement is building!

Well, it's late and second thought, but Yanksox should likely be on the list.

In which category? I presume he's an admin? The "Martyr" one which he wins by acclimation.

Intertainment Tonight presents... A View from the Red CarpetThe final results are in for the 2007 WP:DICK of Distinction polling. In an amazing eleventh-hour upset victory, Cyde (17 points) takes the honors, with SlimVirgin (16 points) making a strong showing in the runner-up position. Third place goes to Will Beback (5 points,) with Zoe in the fourth position and Jayjg in fifth. And this year's "Jimbo" goes to... Cyde!  Despite her narrow loss to Cyde, SlimVirgin has continued to be a real juggernaut in the WP:DICK competition, with a unique style and an aggressive, take-no-prisoners sportsmanship that has inspired numerous Fan Sites like this one. The buzz around tinseltown is that next year Jayjg may be up for a Best Supporting Admin, due to his acclaimed work with SlimVirgin in the tag-team POV Pushing events. Critics are comparing their interplay to some of the all-time great "buddy movies" like "Lethal Weapon." Hey, look! Wikipedia actually has an article on buddy cop movies!SlimVirgin also swept the Miss Incongeniality Pageant, after Kelly Martin was disqualified for not being a current admin, in a move that brought inevitable comparisons to East German olympic athletes. The competition for second place was intense, ending in a three-way tie between Will Beback, Radiant and Fred Bauder. The Straight Shooter Award, for admins that actually try to play a constructive role, this year was awarded jointly to Ashibaka and Tawker, who received equal votes in the polling. Mailer Diablo came in second, with Honorable Mention for Antadrus, FCYTravis, Firsfron, and Rama's Arrow.

Miss Incongeniality... Last minute addition to consider.... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:JzG MISS JzG.... Some little gems from this true paragon of politeness and civility... "And if the trolls get nasty, I get ultra-violent with the banhammer. Guy (Help!) 22:17, 2 March 2007 (UTC)" or this... This is in regards to your edit to User talk:SPmilkshakeGuru8. Also, you used the f-word which is generally considered to be in violation of Wikipedia:Civility. I know it is easy to get frustrated, but it helps everyone if we can all manage to remain civil. If you don't trust your own words, you can use any one of numerous templates to warn users about vandalism. That's what I do, goodness knows it can be hard to put things in your own words and remain civil! Thanks, and good luck with your editing! Mermaid from the Baltic Sea 23:12, 11 March 2007 (UTC) * Barber - User:JB196 - has been blocked more times than I can count, he is banned and that account was yet another sockpuppet. He can, in short, fuck off. Trust me, I have a very good command of the English language, and what I said was exactly what I mean. The talk page is nto relevant to building the encyclopaedia, consisting as it does only of warnings which are superseded by the account's indefinite block as a sockpuppet of User:JB196. Guy (Help!) 23:25, 11 March 2007 (UTC Guy or Jzg is the most polite wikidick there is. thanks

No relation, of course IF YOU ARE THIS CHAP (Jzg), DON'T EVER COME TO the Western Suburbs of Chicago. As far as I'm concerned , Wikipedia Jzg is a Marxists cyber thug with delusions of grandeur and allusions of elitism which knows no bounds - Drunk with power - without having to answer to anybody or anything. The worst kind of evil there is. Put it very simply, his behavior on Wikipedia, is likened to a brutal, Stalinist thug, and deserves little if no respect. He's part of a cadre of lying administrators which creates and encourage a toxic editing environment where distortions and revisionist history is the predominant culture. A culture that is no different then the Outer party drones in Orwell's nightmare 1984. In fact, Wikipedia could be the cyber equivalent of the dynamics outline and played out in that book. It would be my humble opinion, that Wikipedia should be either shutdown or sued out of existence by those who are hurt by its lies and slander and defamation as well as those whose work is stolen by Wikipedia. Wikipedia is a parasitic leech that takes and gives back nothing - not unlike a Las Vegas casino.
