If anyone wishes to discuss my guide, I'm open to discussing any or all of my recommendations. WormTT(talk) 16:00, 21 November 2014 (UTC)Reply

Hey Dave! I just saw your view of me and given my past RfA's I can certainly see why you made the recommendation that you did. I just answered your question and hope that perhaps that may change your viewpoint. If not, I certainly respect that and it won't change the large amount of respect that I have for you. I can assure you that while I feel I have a slim chance at winning a seat, I will not be impacted in the slightest at failure. I sincerely do wish those past RfA's could be deleted and not exist any longer as they don't accurately reflect who I am now and who I want to be.

Hi Dusti. Your answer is indeed a very good indication that you've grown a lot since 2011. I still see your skills elsewhere though. That said, I've put your name on another list (a project for when I leave Arbcom), and might be giving you a shout in the new year. WormTT(talk) 10:00, 25 November 2014 (UTC)Reply

Courcelles

(If it's possible without violating private discussions et. al.) can you give a concrete example of how Courcelles thinking differs from yours? NE Ent 14:01, 25 November 2014 (UTC)Reply

Good question. I'll see if I can find one. WormTT(talk) 15:17, 25 November 2014 (UTC)Reply
An example on wiki would be this ban proposal. I saw a lot of different factors that suggested the individual should not be banned. Courcelles saw it differently. To my recollection, I disagreed with a number of his emails off wiki over similar topics (generally if it's worth trying something more, or just accepting the inevitable and banning) and I believe he disagreed with a number of mine. User:Courcelles is welcome to comment on my perception of that. To be clear, he was right as often as I was - it's important to have people who are firm on the "enough is enough" point of view.

I think the implication is clear -- next year we just let you pick the committee, saving the rest of us from having to spend all that time thinking about it and voting. NE Ent 10:39, 18 December 2014 (UTC)Reply

Worm hath spake. My will be done. :D I've got to say, I was surprised how accurate I was! WormTT(talk) 10:40, 18 December 2014 (UTC)Reply
My analysis gave Go Phightins!’s guide the best percentage (100), in terms of supported candidates getting in and opposed not, but it’s evidently incomplete. There might well be something to the candidate-evaluation system used there, though … Your guide (at 91%) was followed closely by those of HJ Mitchell (90%) and Rschen7754 (87%). Taking the twelve guide-writers for a sample electorate, your collective accuracy was 85%, the misses being the choice of Ks0stm over DeltaQuad and the assignment of the short term to Guerillero instead of Thryduulf (which latter I gave half the weight of the former).—Odysseus1479 23:20, 24 December 2014 (UTC)Reply
Ahem! I was rather accurate myself, with only one inaccuracy, so I should be the one picking the committee. (Well, I might, eh, have used the election guides just a bit, you know...) --Biblioworm 15:04, 20 December 2014 (UTC)Reply
Thanks for your support, Worm. Dougweller (talk) 18:03, 20 December 2014 (UTC)Reply
Thanks? It's not clear to me Dougweller properly understands the election results -- as top vote getter, he's now stuck in the Sisyphian Hell known as arbitration committee. Did you notice how, when Worm was busy writing his voter guide, he was also busy not running for re-election? NE Ent 22:45, 21 December 2014 (UTC)Reply
