More than 6 people were awarded trixies, its just that most of the '03 winners now have new labels, and aren't listed under the '03 trixie winners.

    Yeah, the Simtropolis Class of '03 did many great things... if not for my Enlightened Ruminant tag, I would have the Trixie Winner 2003 title now as well as many others.

    Not quite.  If not for your Enlightened Ruminant tag, you would now have a Trixie Winner 2007 title.

    The only people who still have a Trixie Winner 2003 title are people who won a trixie in 2003 and never won a trixie after that and never got a custom member label.


    We can inspire others through witness so that one grows together in communicating. But the worst thing of all is religious proselytism, which paralyzes: “I am talking with you in order to persuade you.” No. Each person dialogues, starting with his and her own identity. The church grows by attraction, not proselytizing.    - Pope Francis

    EDIT: While, you're at it, there's a couple key mistakes with your version of the list:

    1) The Chat Op, Moderator, Administator, and Webmaster buttons should come before the text, not after, as that's how they actually appear.

    2) Alphabetically, punctuation comes before numbers, with underscores as the absolute first. So ___idiotbox should come before 2ch.net.simplayer, not after.quote>

    Duke, that third panel from your sprite comic  in the 2008 Election Match-O-Matic thread should actually read:  

    Wrong!   "I have Asperger's Syndrome, so I AM right."   

    ENOUGH ALREADY!!!

    If you'd like the CML List updated to your exact expectations and "on time", then feel free to provide us with a fully formated list that we can just throw up to the Omnibus. Otherwise you will simply have to deal with the slow, plodding SHS team. 4.gif

    Duke, it's being worked on and will probably be done by tomorrow. Who was in whose team was unclear, but now that that is resolved, it's very close to finished.

    Also, thanks for your corrections. I'm constantly asking if anyone sees any errors in the list and yet I don't get any responces... at least I know someone's checking it.

    I feel for you Duke... but the unfortunate fact is that sarcasm just doesn't come across right in written form... even when emotes are used. Whenever I'm unsure I just add a 'jk' to the end of things

    Actually, it was brought to my attention that the issue is more that the joke got stale and was getting annoying. Which, given there's only text and no visual reactions from people can be hard to gauge. Especially since on a forum the reaction is not immediate and a joke can thus be beaten to death before any feedback is even obtained.

    I guess the lesson learned is to just avoid rehashing things in general.

    Still, I guess I'll just say this now, for good measure: If I sound like I'm being pissy or nitpicky about anything related to the site or anyone on it, I guarantee you I'm at least half joking and mean no harm. So try not to take it personally. And if you object to something I'm doing, say so! I can't know anyone has a problem with it if they don't tell me, after all.

    But anyway, yeah, enough off topic- go back to talking about member labels now.

    Well, the new Trixie list was about to be posted; however, we're running into some unusual errors. Anyway, rest assured, it will be figured out soon.

    patfirefghtr, that list looks nice. However, the CMLs that are on the list, whether they are group or individual CMLs, are created by the admins and the admins only. Once the BLaM team has official CMLs, I will be more than glad to add them! 2.gif

    Edit:

    Unusual errors? Care to elaborate?

    Is the server not letting you modify the code outside of rich text or something? quote>

    Not sure. If we knew, we would have repaired it by now. 2.gif

    You know I wouldn't mind seeing a Sims team complete w/ CML's either 31.gif ...  But then again most of the members that could get it aren't members of this site 6.gif...  Oh well, back to the drawing board.   9.gif

    Somehow I think BLaM can forget about getting labeled for a while now. Because you know, the whole "asking for one is a great way to ensure you don't get one" thing....

    Duke that wasnt the point at all... I was pointing out the fact there are other teams out there and there hasnt been any updating at all and that is the real point.... it was for more of hey come on guys please update with current stuff other then whats there for teams of NDEX, BSC, Batt squad and Modd Squad... Like really the only team with cmls in that list that is still active here is NDEX and some BSC members but other then that.... So I then put out the list for the team members and example of cml's... I hope that helps you understand where I am coming from Duke...

    If you really want to indulge in this, then you should probably private message SkiGeek. I don't think they'll have a major problem with you guys thinking of labels for yourself since I don't think you're requesting at all. Your post was just for ideas on how the BLaM labels could be done.

    We usually sort that kind of thing out privately with the team.


    We can inspire others through witness so that one grows together in communicating. But the worst thing of all is religious proselytism, which paralyzes: “I am talking with you in order to persuade you.” No. Each person dialogues, starting with his and her own identity. The church grows by attraction, not proselytizing.    - Pope Francis

    Blondes have it easy; they can being going gray for years before anyone notices.   It's much more noticeable on those of us with dark hair.

    Well, one of two things could happen. Either the existing label is completely scrapped in favor of the new one (it's happened for lesser reasons), or somehow incorporated into the new one. For instance, you could be "BLaM Social Butterfly".
