Queen Holly,
My initial review of Boy Maniacs indicates that the following two do not deserve to be goddesses:
drghfx (that's pretty obvious )
Al Gore (there may be a chance for him to redeem himself but he will have to prove himself worthy)
mcshame...the jury is still out. he questionned the goddess system so I will have to think a bit about his worthiness
Going back to my assignment now.....

nope - because you would have to put them in some order....wouldn't you? or, would you specify what your own title was?
No order because we can't judge or compare on that. We would have to specify ourself. Someone could define his/herself as a 5 km runner even ran a marathon in the past. Mod approval could be necessary or not.
this would make a recreational runner like me feel like i don't belong here.

Al Gore "only" gets Moderator status anyway. of course they do have god/goddess power over all of us.

Oh no...I forgot completely about Al Gore being a Mod
He could banish me forever...okay...I now think that Al Gore will make a perfectly lovely goddess...

Sheesh, is this what I get for answering FP's question on goddesses? Is there a god or goddess of being underappreciated?

Or some of us have weird quotes that we find hilarious but other people really wonder about
I already know what my accomplishments are. It would be nice to have "triathlete" under my name, but I agree that everyone should be made to feel welcome. Besides, being a goddess is way nicer than a measly triathlete
Ooohh I just noticed I am a Venus! Sexy!

you guys don't even need to discuss the accomplishment rankings because they aren't going to happen... for the reasons mentioned and also because I would have to individually set each one (and individually change each one every time someone does a new distance). no thank you. :P
