    What order? Frankly this is a ceremonial position, you won't have any power. Don't for a second think otherwise. This has nothing to do with keeping order.

    As for knowledge being connected with power, all I can say is George Bush...

    that's what I said but my post got deleted like twice.

    ragezone interweb presidency is serious business.

    Agreed. This is supposed to be a fun thing. We should brighten this up a bit.

    Exactly. It's like how the President of the United States of America SHOULD know something about America history.

    I would say that's like asking Bush how old Washington was when he signed the constitution. But I guess it's probably something Americans were all taught when they are kids so isn't really relevant? Asking how old Dan was when he *founded* RZ is a bad question because you have to define when it was founded first.

    http://web.archive.org/web/*/http://www.ragezone.com

    Does that mean RZ was created in 1999? That would make us all wrong, and the answer to the first question also wrong

    http://web.archive.org/web/*/http://...zone.com/forum

    Give the impression it was 2002 as phpBB about mir2

    http://web.archive.org/web/*/http://forum.ragezone.com

    vbulletin forum opens. I'd say this is when RZ was really founded


    The only one who can really answer this question would be Dan.

    And I understand this is a pointless election. All I am saying is if nuk wants to have a quiz the answers should have been thoroughly investigated, and the wording in the questions double checked to make sure they can't be interpreted wrongly. I really don't give a flying fk who wins, I just don't want false info being propagated when it doesn't need to be. If you start telling everyone Dan was 14 when he opened RZ when he wasn't it will add flaws into future quizzes or whatever.

    Doesn't it show when Dan joined the forum (which would be CREATING the forum) on his User Profile? And his DoB as well.

    I didn't honestly expect anyone to answer number 2. From memory, I remember people (more than 1 including dan himself) saying he was 14 when he founded the wrestling forum so I just put in 14 as the correct answer.

    Considering when it was first created it didn't even use this software, no. Also if you actually check before speaking you would have realised join dates are editable, hence exys 05-10-1986 join date, and Dans 01-01-2001, and Gohans has been edited as well.

    I don't remember anything of that sort. I do remember people saying Kaoii was 14 when he became a mod/super before he changed it to ~18. That's where I think you got the number 14 from. Frankly I very much doubt the forum was created in 00/early to mid 01 because at that time we would have only just been discovering the internet. I'm mostly going from personal experience of those times so I could be wrong but to me it just sounds wrong.

    I never thought and knew that you could do that. But still, why would they edit the join date?

    How about a 'confrontation', they all have to be in chatbox / something else, people can ask them question why they have to be the 'President' and they have to defend themselves why we should make him the new President. After the conversation, a next voting round with the chat log? So everyone can read the arguments etc..

    Offtopic: lol @ php params on the voting links.

    But in all seriousness, Kerelmans' idea seems good.

    I don't trust real-time chat. People will abuse it. >_>

    But, I could create a thread where people could ask people questions. Good idea.

    So whats so good about being the president? What privilege will he be given? By the way I just eliminated troublemaker111111111 cuz his speech is the shortest so he is more lazy? (No lazy president)

    i'll pity ChronoTrigger78 if he doesn't wins cause I can see he took lots of time into these.. Though I didn't read pass the first paragraph

    @troublemaker, I had that as my custom user title earlier this week.

    @Nuklear, I agree with that idea.

    I know the poll is supposed to end tomorrow at noon (or was it 3?) but since I'll be at an amusement park (yay!) all day tomorrow, so I'll delay the end of the round 2 to whenever I get back
