Deviant nomination[edit]

I think this might be a possible deviant nomination by Timwi to get Spottedowl slammed. — oo64eva (Alex) ^{(U | T | C)} @ 18:42, May 8, 2005 (UTC)

I'm not actually sure what you mean, but if you're suggesting that Timwi did this to be nasty, you're very wrong. I was with him when he nominated me. I wasn't too sure about it, but Timwi thought that I deserved the status and that I wouldn't have a problem getting it. We've since found that he was wrong. :)

I haven't accepted the nomination because of the overwhelming opposition. :) Spottedowl 17:51, 17 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Then for future reference, Spottedowl, the better thing would have been for you to politely decline rather than leave it up without acceptance. -- Cecropia | explains it all ® 18:03, 17 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I can see now that it was a hasty conclusion, it just seemed like it since I've seen similar patterns in other deviant nominations. I apologize to Timwi my accusation of wrongdoing. — oo64eva (Alex) ^{(U | T | C)} @ 20:55, May 17, 2005 (UTC)
