Probably wont make a difference, but if it's the 269-269 scenario she'll actually only get 268.

"Go home GH, you're drunk" was about right. | ||

Moreover, the thread does all my anti-KwarK propaganda for me, so I have more time to shitpost elsewhere. | ||

Basically everyone in that thread has been warned in the last five pages (I got two in a row for completely unsubstantial posting, can't really argue). Looks like rules have drastically changed in the last 24 hours. My guess is that mods are simply bracing for impact. | ||

The weeks before that hovered around 0.25%. My prediction is that the thread can reach 5% in the aftermath of the election. | ||

Tried to delete a couple pages (unsuccessfully), tried to vandalize the main page, and had a double account. Combining that with both accounts being less than 2 hours old, easy perm ^^ | ||

Also I have a friend who was a mod on Wikipedia and knew the system well enough to know how to fabricate stuff and get away with it. A very obscure made up story he made lasted about a week - the longest I've seen an act of Wikipedia vandalism survive. | ||
