May Quiz!

[BTs_GhostSniper]

Here it is, the May Quiz!  This month the winner of the quiz will receive a donation in their name to the charity of their choice in the amount of $50.  The quiz will be a general knowledge quiz, and since it's for charity, it might not be quite as hard as last month's quiz. 

Good Luck!

4. What day did I officially join this forum?

5. How many colors could you get the original Ford Model T in?

6. How many *DAMN Admin does it take to screw in a lightbulb (your guess is as good as mine...but make it FUNNY!)?

7. What day did Apple Computer go public on the Stock Exchange?

8. What is the maximum amount of RAM I can put in my Single-Processor 1.8GHz PowerPC G5 Tower (careful, this is a trick question)?

Funny how quickly people's interest drops when it's no longer for their self-benefit.

Eh, I was thinking "None, *DBL Admins do not have the athority to do such important tasks as screwing in light bulbs without discussing it in multiple meetings and in at least a 3 page thread in the admin section, and then seeking aproval from Mauti, who will make the decision without researching the admin discussion at all, and will screw in the lightbulb in such a way that it falls out again after 2 minutes"

[BTs_GhostSniper]

lol

[BFG]

indeed, Admins should do whatever the hell they feel is right, should totally ignore all guidelines and rules and should just throw their weight about without any consideration for the outcome. afterall what is the point in working in a team, its much better just to do whatever you think is best without any discussion -
hang on Typhy which is it, first your complaining that Mauti runs the show and is a dictator, and then your complaining that decisions are made through debate and the input of a group vote... um ?

ps the answer is 6:

1 to announce that the light-bulb must be changed
3 to agree that the light-bulb does indeed need changing and elect a light-bulb changer
1 to change the light-bulb
1 to announce that the light-bulb has been changed



ps nice job nomad

lol...I like it!

I'm commenting that decisions are made in an incredibly inefficent manner, and are often made poorly. I'm also commenting on the fact that in the past, Mauti has totally ignored the conclusions of the admin team and made his own ruling.

Thankfully, I got out of that ineffective shit hole, took my clan and won the BL.

For a task as simple as changing a light bulb, we shouldn't have a bureaucratic process that wastes everyones time.

be a big boy and say the truth... you got kicked from the adminteam for very good reasons.

[BTs_GhostSniper]

Okay guys, take the rest of this argument to the General Gossip, or better yet, the Feedback Box About Admin.[/size]

Forgot that telling the truth, and saying what you think while an admin is a sin.

Mauti sent me a PM, asking if I thought I could work with you. My answer was no.

However you have made your decision very clear, and I thank you for your honesty. As a consequence of course it is better for all of us that you leave the BL team and retire as admin. Thank you very much for the endless constructive hours you have put into this season, and the seasons before, but we are at a point where we have to go to into different directions to reach the same or similiar goal.

You are a now a normal member of this community.

Have a nice day,

Mauti

My grandparents faught against people like you. One of my countries proudest days was VE day, when we defeated your sort.

[BFG]

ffs me and my stupid freaking fingers, i should have known to ignore it and just talk about lightbulbs. leave poor old GS's quizz corner alone, GS if you like feel free to spring clean and wipe my post etc off

ps, Junes coming up... any thoughts yet on the next quiz, i fancy having a decent bash at the fully monty!

[BTs_GhostSniper]

Okay guys, please keep the Quiz Section clean by posting only quiz-related material.  Leave the admin-bashing for one of the other more appropriate forums.

As for the June Quiz, BFG, I'm thinking maybe a movie quiz![/size]

[BFG]

Excellent sounds right up my street
