Director Election

Our current director is retiring, so we have.... *drumroll* a Director Election!


Director Election

It's that time of the year again, the Director Election!

What is This?

  • This is an election to decide the new director of The 'Shroom. Naturally, the one with the most votes wins the title.
  • If a director retires, then an election is held again in the latest issue of The 'Shroom.
  • An election takes place every December Issue regardless whether an election has already been held that year.
  • The current director may run in elections if they wish.
  • This election will start December 20nd.
  • In the January issue (18:00 Jan. 19), the winner will be announced, and they will have at most a week to announce their Core Staff in the comments section at the bottom of the page, as well as their calendar.
  • There will be a debate between the candidates, please also state when you can participate in the debate in order to get this to work.
  • You must submit your campaign at least a week ({{{2}}}) before the release of the January issue, or else it will be considered invalid and removed by the Core Staff!
It is currently 09:05, May 26th (EST/EDT)

This election ends {{{3}}} (EST/EDT)
Candidate Rules
  • Anyone may run for director during any time of the election (except in Overtime), but they must have a forum account.
  • A user may only run for themselves, another user cannot nominate them.
  • All candidates must say what changes will they make. They can also campaign to promote voting for them.
    • Campaigns must use acceptable grammar (judgment is given to the Core Staff).
    • Campaigns must be original. Nobody is allowed to steal another candidate's ideas. However, if campaigns, for the most part, differ from each other or have key elements to which the candidates disagree on, then sharing a few ideas here and there is allowed.
    • No joke campaigns are allowed to be ran.
    • No bribing voters is allowed.
  • Candidates can also hold debates among them in the comments section at the bottom of the page.
  • This is what a voting section should look like:
===Candidate===
What will you do, etc.
 #'''X'''
 #'''X'''
 #'''X'''

So as you can see, that candidate has three votes.

Voter Rules
  • Voters may vote with their username, no signatures allowed, or they opt to list themselves as X ('''X''') in order for their vote to not be immediately identifiable– note that people may see who voted in such a manner in the page editing history.
  • Anonymous editors (who do not sign in to edit) are not allowed to cast votes. If you have an account and are simply logged out, please sign in to your account. If you want to vote and you do not have an account, simply create one, sign in, and vote!
  • Voters may only cast one vote.
  • Voters may change their vote at any time while the election is in progress.
Ties
  • In the case of a tie, the Core Staff will establish a runoff election for another week between the tying candidates. Ties beyond that will be handled if they come up by a process decided by the Core Staff.
Duties of the Director

This is what you must do if you win, so read carefully.

  • The director must accept or decline all new writers' ideas for sections they want to write.
  • The director assigns a section to users who want to write, but don't know what to write.
  • The director gives out a warning to users who have not yet sent in their sections one week before The 'Shroom is due.
  • The director puts The 'Shroom together, and edits the front page, the single page, the 'Shroombox template, and the Shroom Issue template.
  • The director writes the Director's Notes section, which comments about the month's issue.
  • The director includes the due date of the next 'Shroom in the Director's Notes, and in the Shroomwarning template.
  • The director gets to choose their Core Staff, this is: Fake News, Fun Stuff, Music & Art, Pipe Plaza, Critic Corner directors and Sub-Director.
  • The director must send applications to users who want to become writers.

Looks easy? It is not. So get ready.

Now get out there and go!

FG2, a spammer for director?-- Xpike the hedgehog

Even though Blitzwing is very hated by most, I think he would be the best choice. GrodenE T C El

Yes. Fg2 spams too much. >_>

You guys can't just sign up cuz it'd be cool! Doing this will take alot of responsibility, A role fit for a blitzwing.

Master Crash

Indeed. Everyone else does not seem too trusworthy. 3dhammer.gif 3D, AAAaaaAAAH! 3dhammer.gif

NOT TRUSTWORTHY? What have you seen about me that isn't trustworthy? I mean, sure, FLY_GUY_2 is not trustworthy, but me??? BLOC PARTIER.

He's just... More trustworthy.

Master Crash

Gotcha. Wait... :P BLOC PARTIER.

I have a couple of questions for you, Blitz. Do you know the complex syntax required? Specifically, there's headers & footers for every 'Shroom page to make it "official" (which I created). Sure you can copy & paste, but the author needs to be changed, and noincludes also for the single-page, and full page inclusions using template syntax. Also, would you be able to help get the 'Shroom back on track? It's completely phailing right now; we need to recruit new writers for the old jobs or it will die before 2009 comes around. If I'm elected I plan to ask around again, and explain how simple it is to write for it, it's really just an hour one day a month, for most articles.

That goes for everyone, really – the next director needs to be strong enough that s/he will advertise around the wiki, forums etc. and get either old or new writers to put together a full, not half-issue like XI. Wa Yoshihead.png TC@Y 20:23, 13 January 2008 (EST)

Wayo is a good choice. He is smart, nice, mature, responcible, dedicated, and understands the work put into this, and has been part of the shroom. I feel the reason he is doing this is to help the shroom not for himself. Alphaclaw11

3d: you really can't say that unless you have a good knoledge of that User Because me and InfectedShrom are majorly trusted Who voted FG2 He's like super Spam Man.

My Odd Job

Well like the tittle said I have the odd job of finding glitches and easter eggs for Super Mario Sunshine. Yes that's my job and pretty soon I'll post them I promise.

Glitches

These are some of the glitches that I found for Super Mario Sunshine so enjoy.

Walk Under Water

This is a pretty easy glitch. First go to the Shine Gate pool(The small pound behined the gate) hop into the water and go to the small water fall gate then press B(You Might have to try acouple times) then you'll be under water but well be walking on the bottom of the pool you can also use FLUDD and well have the life bar you have on land. P.S. If you don't go too the pool floor you'll drop into the sewer.

Hole of Death

First go to Gealato Beach then you must go to the part of the hill where you beet ll Pintamo and countinue down the road when you get to the end of the road where the bungie cords are at then get up to the highest cord. Now you can see a alcove filled with water jump as high as you can on the cord then put the Hover Nozzel on and fly towards the cove hold up on the control stick untill you are just floating in midair then let go. You should fall through the hill in to a blue or black room however if you do not keep jumping you well die.

Yoshi in The Water

First go to Gealato Beach episode 6 "Red Coins In The Coral Reef" then get the Yoshi Egg and hatch Yoshi then ride him to The Hole Of Death and get in you still have to jump to stay alive then jump towared the smoothie shack then do a flutter jump you should end up under water but still be walking like your on land and you'll have Yoshi.

Delfino Cam

Still in episode 6 of Gealato Beach get Yoshi Again and go to the thing of yellow goop get rid of it and get off Yoshi now start spraying the dune bud that was under the goop and right when it tranfoarms ground pound your camera should go straight up and start to shake after that you should get a good veiw of isle delfino.

The Book

Ok first go to Noki Bay episode 3 "Red Coins In a Bottle" start the level and go to the area with all the rocks at the bottom search the out side of the rocks untill you fidnd two small caves the end of the caves are grey and brown go into the one that is brown then go in to the Mario Cam at the end of the hall angle the camera untill you can tell that the brown is really a door and if you angle it perfectly you can a BOOK what is the meaning of the book?

Hope you enjoyed the glitches if I find more I'll post them.
