:::I would say that both should be selected since both nominations received the same number of votes. As for which one is featured now versus next month, that could be chosen at random. -- '''[[User:LostInRiverview|<font color="navy">LostInRiverview</font>]]<sup> [[User_talk:LostInRiverview|<font color="green">talk</font>]] • [[User_blog:LostInRiverview|<font color="green">blog</font>]] • [[Special:Contributions/LostInRiverview|<font color="green">contribs</font>]]</sup>''' 13:54, September 1, 2015 (UTC)
::::'''''2¢''''' I'm inclined to say that the ''oldest'' nomination gets selected sooner rather than later. This is the philosophy I use for selecting battles nominations that have tied. --I am [[User:K6ka|'''<span style="color:#0040FF">k6ka</span>''']] [[User talk:K6ka|<span style="color:#0080FF"><sup>Talk to me!</sup></span>]] [[Special:Contributions/K6ka|<span style="color:#0B4C5F"><sub>See what I have done</sub></span>]] 13:59, September 1, 2015 (UTC)
:::::Still, the users who are nominated are tied. So I suggest Sapphire is going to be featured editor for this month. And I'm going to be featured editor for the next month.

:::::: I'm fine with whatever everyone wants since I know you will all make sure it is fair. Either choosing the oldest nomination or random choosing is fine by me. Whoever doesn't get it this month will more than likely get Featured Editor next month, so there is no worries on that.

So... wait a minute. Why is Sims2Player up for nomination again? I thought the idea was that both Sapphire and S2P would be featured back-to-back. -- '''[[User:LostInRiverview|<font color="navy">LostInRiverview</font>]]<sup> [[User_talk:LostInRiverview|<font color="green">talk</font>]] • [[User_blog:LostInRiverview|<font color="green">blog</font>]] • [[Special:Contributions/LostInRiverview|<font color="green">contribs</font>]]</sup>''' 20:58, September 2, 2015 (UTC)
:::::::: I'm confused as to what is going on too. The votes have been reset and so we are revoting for Sims2Player. I dunno what happened. Maybe someone can clarify? Thank you so much.

From what I saw, Sapphire was selected to be September's featured editor and not S2P. There is no featured editor queue, like there is a featured article queue, and in practice the votes for every nominee is reset after each voting period. The votes were thus reset. --I am [[User:K6ka|'''<span style="color:#0040FF">k6ka</span>''']] [[User talk:K6ka|<span style="color:#0080FF"><sup>Talk to me!</sup></span>]] [[Special:Contributions/K6ka|<span style="color:#0B4C5F"><sub>See what I have done</sub></span>]] 21:13, September 2, 2015 (UTC)
:Since they tied, it seems like it would be unfair to have Sims2Player up for nomination again. I mean, it seems likely that they'll win this time around, but that's not a guarantee. So I'd rather we just pull Sims2Player's nomination, have him as the FE in October, and then increase the voting time on this month's nominations to last through October instead of September. -- '''[[User:LostInRiverview|<font color="navy">LostInRiverview</font>]]<sup> [[User_talk:LostInRiverview|<font color="green">talk</font>]] • [[User_blog:LostInRiverview|<font color="green">blog</font>]] • [[Special:Contributions/LostInRiverview|<font color="green">contribs</font>]]</sup>''' 21:16, September 2, 2015 (UTC)
::Or we should create a queue to list winning nominees in so this confusion (since there is no policy or guideline governing what happens during a tie) doesn't happen again. It would also help in reducing the months where we miss featured editor listings because nobody bothered to nominate themselves during a specified voting period. --I am [[User:K6ka|'''<span style="color:#0040FF">k6ka</span>''']] [[User talk:K6ka|<span style="color:#0080FF"><sup>Talk to me!</sup></span>]] [[Special:Contributions/K6ka|<span style="color:#0B4C5F"><sub>See what I have done</sub></span>]] 21:22, September 2, 2015 (UTC)
:::I think that is a wonderful idea. Sounds like this is the first time a tie happened, so I think some rules should be implemented just in case this happens again. A queue would solve the problem, as k6ka stated. - [[User:Sapphire Moondust|<span style="text-shadow:purple 0px 2px 2px;color:purple">Sapphire</span>]] [[User:Sapphire Moondust|<span style="text-shadow:blue 0px 2px 2px;color:blue">Moondust</span>]] <sup>([[User talk:Sapphire Moondust|<font color="#0000CD">'''talk'''</font>]])</sup> 21:26, September 2, 2015 (UTC)
::::I definitely support the idea of having Sims2Player be the next month's featured editor. I definitely noticed that Sapphire and Sims2Player were tied for this month's featured editor. But we haven't actually drawn out two featured editors in one month before. I knew that Sims2Player definitely deserved to be featured editor as well, which probably explains why I didn't reset the votes. I know that I was technically supposed to reset the votes, but it would have left me with a bad feeling if I had. ― '''[[User:C.Syde65|<font color="maroon">C.Syde</font>]]''' ([[User talk:C.Syde65|<font color="black">talk</font>]] | [[:Special:Contributions/C.Syde65|<font color="black">contribs</font>]]) 03:29, September 3, 2015 (UTC)
