[Sussudio] My first word
Verzus
Ok, I erase my article before I have published it, and Im kind of pissed of now. Even more coz I am writeing from my mobile phone coz Im on vacation... And as for that reason I will appologise for not so long article and article with out pictures.
So I will try to write all up again.
First of all, let me say that it is an honor to be part of this clash. Clash of titans? Well, not titans, but for sure people who are willing to contribute to a better Canada. Sussudio is an excellent idea and as such it should have good media support. And I am doing my contribution to it.
So, to make this short and sweet, I will close this article with promise that my next will be better 😉

Keep our Media Strong
What I'll do is I'll count this as your official entry, and if you post another one I'll figure both and take the better result of the two as the one I judge. Hope that helps 🙂
Otherwise, thanks for writing mate, and good luck.
someone used voters club 😛
That's exactly what I was afraid of...
I'll allow it. Besides, votes only make 3 of the 8 points he can earn. Unique commentators and quality will be deciding factors in this, it seems. Definitely locked down three points, though. Good strategy 🙂
Personally, I think that's extremely unsportsman like... To both use this "strategy", as well as to allow it.
Lets look at it this way, If He beats his opponent by a margin of 3 or less, then it is directly because someone cheated and bought votes. I say cheating because it is essentially buying the contest.
3/8 may not be much, but It is still 37.5% of the total.
Good thing you are not judge Lelouch. Beside, it it is not forbidden, it is allowed... and why do you think I use it anyway? If/when I would use it would be 200+
Here's the thing, Lelouch. While it certainly is unsportsmanlike, it is literally impossible to accurately judge. I lack any sort of tool to know which votes are valid, and which are from voters club. I can either not judge votes, which would completely negate some credibility in the judging process, or allow voters club. It's a s**tty position to be in, but that's the inherent issue with article judgement.
It's up to the players to play honourably, if they so choose. And here's the thing: InsaneSkillz is right - it's impossible to know whether or not he was the one who bought votes or not. A competitor to reduce legitimacy of the article can buy it, or a supporter of the writer can buy it. I can't know.
Sadly we live in a world where voters club exists, but we must face our reality and accept it. Think of this way, this allows you - or again: your supporters - to buy votes too. It's equal opportunity cheating, I guess you can say. 😉

Something about this was just cute
Always copy/paste your article before you publish it to prevent erep from doing the time out error and losing your article. Or write it in a word doc or something and then copy paste over.
Works fine on PC, not so much on mobile devices.
more reason to copy and paste
*copy before sending/publishing
As mention in article and by Xander, it was writen (and still is) from mobile..
