Mithoron

Hello

Rubisco

Jello

Hey @Mith, we were mithing you

I mean missing you

Mithoron

Hi @Secret I remember you but you were here a long time ago

@Rubisco really ;)

Rubisco

What do you think about the election and all?

Will you run, or just walk?

Mithoron

Haha :D

Rubisco

7:50 PM

. . .

I guess that's just walk then. :\

Mithoron

And what does mean walk in this context? ;)

Rubisco

Not run

Hey @Jan. I don't remember if I remember, but if you want to choose my name on meta, you have to be the guy that writes the meta post.

Jan

@Rubisco I was thinking of doing that. I’ll do it later today =3

Rubisco

Just saying

Mithoron

You'd like me to candidate?

Rubisco

7:53 PM

@Mithoron YES!

Mithoron

@Rubisco Why?

Yeah I guess I know why

Rubisco

Why?

1. You're really cool

2. You've helped moderate this candyland for quite some time

3. You're really cool

Mithoron

@Rubisco really cool is rather ambiguous ;)

Rubisco

@Mithoron STP

Mithoron

I think you and Loong will do

@Rubisco :D

Rubisco

7:59 PM

@Mithoron Or Loong and Ortho. I don't think I'll get as many votes as Ortho

Which is sad.

Because I won't be able to bully him anymore

orthocresol

@Rubisco :/

We'll see how that goes.

Rubisco

Seriously though, an Ortho-mod would be too cool for the servers to handle. It'd break the system

Oh no, oh no

What's happening to me? I'm being nice to the rivals.

Self-slaps

orthocresol

@Rubisco Loong rubbing off on you?

Rubisco

@orthocresol The guy is contagious

Loong

ugh

Rubisco

8:05 PM

Note to self; write a bunch of FAQ's after the election that you've been procrastinating for some time

Mithoron

@Rubisco Maybe I'll candidate next time... If I'll chill out ;) Also some rep and experience wouldn't hurt

Rubisco

@Mithoron You should start answering homework crap

Erm, I mean misguided queries

Mithoron

@Rubisco Don't scare me ;)

Rubisco

Boo

Jan

Omg, with all those candidates I don’t know who to vote for anymore =C It was simpler when I just had to choose between three =C

Rubisco

8:15 PM

@Jan I know who you should vote for.

This guy. chemistry.stackexchange.com/users/7448/rubisco

He's obviously the best candidate.

Jan

I can’t vote for @Rub, @Loong, @ortho and @pH1 all at the same time Y__Y

Q: How small is the smallest known carbon ring containing only double bonds?

How small is the smallest known carbon ring containing only double bonds? The stress from the double bonds makes small rings impossible to make something like cyclohexahexaene so I want to know how large the ring would need to be so the stress is small enough such that the ring can be made.

organic-chemistry

This question needs tags; I need suggestions!

orthocresol

@Jan carbon-allotropes?

Jan

@orthocresol Good one!

Mithoron

@Rubisco All those poor OP's should tremble in fear if I'd get elected now ;)

Rubisco

. . .

Ow, I thought you ran.

orthocresol

8:25 PM

furiously refreshes

Rubisco

@orthocresol Whoa whoa, this is discrimination against RAM's and browsers.

Mithoron

@Rubisco Haha ;)

Rubisco

Okie dokie, time to sleep.

Goodbye world

8:52 PM

@Jan that’s quite easy ;D

Melanie Shebel

@Loong Yeah, I think I'll be a better candidate when I'm here long, have more rep and experience with editing. :)

Mithoron

@MelanieShebel Well, you were better candidate then gannex...

Melanie Shebel

Do you guys feel weird about accepting your own answer to a question? I posed a question back in March and answered it yesterday. Now it's sitting there like staring at me with that check mark, like "I'm a check mark, click me." I think I ought to wait for more answers. Or more votes on my answer.

@Mithoron There are a lot of really good candidates! :)

Jan

@MelanieShebel I personally wait at least two days before accepting any answer and I double that period for accepting self-answers. But do as you see fit ;)

pH13 - Yet another Philipp

@MelanieShebel if you think your answer is the best, accept it. if someone else writes a better answer, you can change it.

Melanie Shebel

9:05 PM

Yeah, @Jan I think I'll wait. It's an older question so it's had quite a while to garner answers, but my answer pushed the question back into the limelight, so perhaps others will answer.

Melanie Shebel

9:34 PM

Back to the moderator election, I want to wait until I have 2k rep and thus experience with flags before I run as a moderator. That way I'll have more experience under my belt.

2 hours later…

Q: Let’s choose a definite name for our favourite molecule, in case he gets elected as a mod!

We all know this guy who nominated themself for a moderator position in the upcoming election.[1] Over the course of history-of-chemistry, we got to know him under a number of different names.[2] Notice the comments under his nomination post over at the election site. Of if you’re too lazy to fo...
