i think TDC needs other gotw admins. it's not about being lazy in this thing, but much of us have a job. so i think there should be a new gotw admin, what do you guys think?
Visit Sciisoft Support Forum! This is totally new and cool!
Updating the GOTW is fun for the first couple of weeks, but it gets extremely tedious to do it every week (at least for me anyway). So I don't think hiring "GOTW Admins" will solve any problems we have with updating the GOTW. If we hire another admin to do the GOTW then I think they'll probably get bored of updating it eventually and then the problem isn't really solved.
I'd much rather see a new system in place to make updating the GOTW quicker and easier for admins - but that depends on whether the other admins agree, and whether Clubby has enough time to do it (I can't do it as I didn't introduce the GOTW in the first place so I don't know how the system works exactly). That's just my opinion really.
GOTW doesn't take too long, it's just extremely annoying to do. I'd do it now, heck I'd do it a few days ago, but my internet is running at 2.5 Kbps download, and surprisingly about 10Kbps upload. Do you know how annoying it is to open a page at 2.5 Kbps, much less the dozens of pages needed to open GOTW?
(Amusing irony was that while doing the poll, my net connection messed it up and all three replies were "Not at all" for 5 minutes )

Of course it is. We're just delaying it for suspense.

its more epic when theres close calls like lets say treasure hunt is 31(which it is) and bullet widget is 30(which is not) just a few votes can change the out come! but in this case like i said, treasure hunt has it in the bag, its to easy. cant wait to see how my game does.

some one blows there nose and YOU want to keep it!
Couldn't the current admins just take turns doing the GOTW? Like each person does it every 3 or 4 weeks (or however many admins there are), on a rotation?
Pretty sure we're waiting till Sunday to update GOTW so we can get back on the normal schedule this week, instead of having the updates at random times throughout the week. Yes, I will agree GOTW is tedious however. I'll update it tomorrow guys!
We do kinda do it on rotation, but since my bandwith quota ran out (and these fricking exams) and Circy went idle for a while, it's taking a while for the others to do it
