4048813 Just out of curiosity... what does an oracle do?
I mean, on an administrative level, there's the admins, who make sure nobody does anything silly like insult a religion or something, then there's me, who takes care of the submissions folder... and that's about it, really.
4049223 You know, Oracles were most often chosen by the gods in mythology. It wasn't a case of people asking to be made conduits to the heavens.
I know that sounded all different kinds of pretentious, but my point is that I'd rather hand-pick who I trust, not give it to the first people who come along. No offense to the first people who came along intended, of course.
4049279 well, those gods from former mythology were killed by me because they were dishonest douchebags who never invited me to their parties
that's why Achilles died. all because i threw in an apple into the mix...
but my point being, those same choices backfired on them because they could not truly help themselves help others. and in the end, it led to me killing them and eating their souls.
4049289 Just sayin'. I'm operating quite well so far: I'm at eleven stories reviewed out of the submissions already. And at this rate, I can go on indefinitely.
4049359 Are you sure that's a good idea? Not everyone who writes decent stories are good admins. And even if I were ridiculously strict, which I'm not, over time you're going to end up with a whole load of admins on your hands, and there's a reason those 'every member becomes an admin' groups never last long.
you get to tell things to the people that only gods can
you also get to be contributors
Can I be one?
4038559 Can I be one? It's not like I really have anything better to do.

4039967 Cool.
Yay! Thank you.

Oracles tell us what is going on around Olympus, say if somepony is fucking up or being a troll
4048846 Seems legit. I can live with that. Well played, Eris.
4048852
lol
also, Oracles can wield angelic powers

If at all possible I would like to be an oracle
4049163
are you up to being able to monitor the group everyday as much as you can?
4049187
Considering work, nevermind
4049196 okay...

I'll leave the recruiting to you.
4049306
damn...
4049319 Well, it's not like they review themselves. I did get help from Black Ultron on two occasions though.
4049336
well, be sure we get through all of them so we can make sure everyone gets a chance
they either get appointed godhood, or some other position if we must make further decisions to decide what they must be

I'm just giving you fair warning.
4049397
I see your point, I'll only appoint admins to those we can truly trust, whether they're gods or not
If you have any positions for oracles still available, I'd be happy to take the job
