Clock Crew

wavy gravy is trying to become the next mod.

My pathetic ass is gonna try and beat him to it.

I support you mah man

#teamwaffleclock

hey everyone

remember that time we had a new and clueless member called dolphinclock, and just to fuck with him we made him administrator and acted like we wanted him to be administrator until it stopped being funny and then we banned him or something

today's clockcrew.net is a much smaller place so let me spare you the trouble, waffleclock, and tell you it's not happening

it's ok though, being an administrator is mostly about banning people by popular demand, making sure the site doesn't break, figuring out how to stop spambots from registering, not giving a shit unless I have to and fielding members' "oh, no reason" requests to be appointed to positions of power

I don't dislike wavy gravy or think that he was a bad part of the moderation team when he was doing that

OFFICIAL VCR Clock lifetime achievement award for best admin thread

Oh yeah... how did that Dolphin Clock thing end?  I don't remember exactly, did he start banning people for no reason? I feel like he outright deleted a member or two instead of just banning them and it fucked things up real bad, or I might be thinking of something else.

was he even actually given any powers?

my memory is him posting messages explaining to people that they had just been banned, even though actually nothing happened

idk

did you just say the n-word

I did more for the clock crew than you will ever know. A mountain of effort I bled from my veins in my endeavors as admin!

WHAT THE FUCK

Honestly, this was just a joke thread that was not made to offend wavy gravy despite my cocky ass attitude. I'm quite surprised people like miracle fruit and Jamba actually pitched in with their "support". I'm fine with not being a mod btw.

Kudos.

Hold on, ADMIN?!?!?!?

I was referring to being Mod. I can't handle admin. But I can handle mod.

you only THINK you can handle mod
but watch out, the 5 of us can get pretty rowdy sometimes

yeh, wut he said

In order to become a mod, you need a character reference from every existing mod. This is an issue because a lot of them are missing. We also can't change that rule with a 100% 'yes' vote from the other mods, further complicating things. Sometimes they ignore Slurpee's vote and just assume he said no, which makes things even harder. Best of luck.

that's a pretty way of saying the council refuses to honor the terms of my assent

I merely request to bequeath my vote in person, after I and one or more other former or current mods wander hither and yon across a mountainside in mutual silence for a couple of days while contemplating sankhara-dukkha. I don't even demand a particular mountain anymore like I did for Pop-tart

ugh i remember those mountains. i swear i got stuck with the worst one.  did your mountain have cougars? mine had cougars

well neither am i

Can I by chance have references from any of you?

Dear Sir or Madam

Let _________ into your _______.  Never have I had a brighter pupil who has showed such promise in my entire _________ career.  _________ was always prompt, never was late, and was always eager to help guide a project along.  Even more than that, they were always happy to help out others who were perhaps struggling with something that he had undoubtedly understood with ease.  It was truly an honor to work with them, and I know that they will extend that same great honor to you.

Please let me know if there are any questions about _______'s long and illustrious time under my guidance, and I'll be happy to answer them for you.  I'm sure once we've had a chance to talk in person, my enthusiasm for this stellar individual will be more than enough to convince about how serious I am in my recommendation of them.

Now that you've gotten this far, please call 911.  My family has been tied up in a car that is half off of a cliff, and the slightest move by them could send them careening to their deaths.  Now, ordinarily this would be no problem, but apparently they have also unleashed a burlap sack full of scorpions into the car too, and time is very quickly running out.  I have typed this letter under duress, and have not been allowed a bite to eat or anything to drink in well over a week, and I fear I may be dying.  Even if I don't make it, as I have not yet managed to pinpoint the location of the warehouse I am being held captive in, and there are men with guns all around me.  However, I know if you act fast, you can save them.  When you receive this letter, read up to here, look at them, and nod your head and accept them into the school on the spot.  This will stop the timer attached to the bomb under their car, and if the police have reached them in time, they'll be able to get them away from the scorpions.

Tell them that I love them and I'll be watching from heaven.

Once again, your institution would be remiss not to accept _______, as I think their track record more than speaks for itself.  They are, without exaggeration, one of the kindest, fairest, and most commendable people I have ever met in my time on this Earth, and I think you will have a similar opinion of them. If not, then you have met some truly wonderful people and lived a blessed life.

Best regards,
