"Only those we accept as candidates can be candidates" is more freedom than "if you want to host, you're a candidate"? People were always free to be a candidate without everyone needing to vote whether or not he/she could be, changing that because of one person is a little bit of an overreaction. .

Werloc 3,164 Posted February 11, 2020 #285 Share Posted February 11, 2020 Candidacy works when people are actually voting, so you're mixing two very different concepts. We're talking about a random chance game, deciding something important. And you fully know what I meant. We don't need to scrutinise every candidate, because not a single soul said a single word against any other host in the past, but bestmen was a controversial figure that has done harm to the contest's integrity in the past.

But gosh is that not the outcome that I thought might happen due to his unreliability. Like this is actually the outcome I'm just gonna stay positive and assume he'll be back and host the contest .

Well I can repeat everything I've said before, and you can, and in the end we'll still just disagree about it anyway so I'll save us both the energy .

Mostly I had hoped for there to be a little more time for everyone (mostly himself) to calm down, sort stuff out and get on with it. I know I might have been hoping for too much there, but it dies last, I heard.. Edited February 11, 2020 by heywoodu . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
