Look who it is! You know what that means, it's time for the Eyes On Elections! It's been over a year since the induction of Rye as Eyes On's President, and AVALANCHE's destruction of the evil Shin-Ra party. Has the forum prospered or sank in this time? Do the winds of change beckon, will you induct more of the same, or is it finally time to vote Nader NeoCracker? Politics and forums, collision course baby. Continue reading for details.
With the rise of Hybrids thanks to the whole Global Warming Climate Change debacle, good ol' boothie decided that a hybrid Election would be the most fitting way to get it done. Like the old fossil fuel burning threads, this round will contain the raw posting numbers that comes with having user made parties. However, like last elections electric one on one encounter, the final voting will between two parties!
The Ballot Schedule
1. The first part of this competition will consist of members starting parties. To make a party you must start a new thread, and then satisfy the following requirements:
Have a party name. (Please include this in the title of the Party's thread also the title of your party thread must end with [Elections]).
Have at least 4 members
Have a motto
Have a slogan
Choose members to run for President and Vice President respectively.
You have around 5 days to organize your parties, when your party is good to go with all of the above, post a link somewhere in this thread to make sure I don't miss you!
At 8PM EST Friday a Primary thread will be posted by yours truly, in which the members of EoFF will vote for which parties they want to head into the super, ultra, mega important, General Election!
2. After the Primary, the General Election begins, pitting the two victors against each other in all out constitutional war! The Parties will need to rally members from whom where once adversaries, not to mention win over the General Eyes on Public. The parties will have to figure find representatives, take part in debates, and of course, wage expensive promotional campaigns! More will be posted about the General Election when we get there. :)
Members, start your parties!

Namely that party threads have [Elections] in the title somewhere just so people don't get confused. Standard procedure, no need to fret!

Marick D. Pauper here, broadcasting to you live from the Eyeson Election Headquarters where we are kicking off this year's election in style. As many of you know, the election, headed by the Election Booth, is done every year with various parties running a myriad of smear campaigns.
Stay tuned for my next broadcast when all the parties are announced and I release an official history of each.

As we can see, the very institutions of this site are constructed to ensure that the status quo is maintained and the membership cannot ever truly elect a candidate who will be effective and can operate on their mandate.
Y'all needn't worry. The Apocalypse Party has the goods, we'll see you through til the very end and make it a cracker of a send off. And you thought Y2K was a damn rocking night? You just want and see the finale of our party.

(marick freaking out doesn't count)
This week, Psychotic, now branded as Necrotic upon becoming a member of the Zombie Party, has smeared the Fat Chocobo Party. Upon request for comment, he was not available.
Marick D. Pauper left a stern remark for the individual about his tone through this campaign against him. The vendetta between these two individuals has grown stronger over time. The origins behind this rivalry has been lost to the annals of Eyeson's history. What the EoFF Post does know, is that this year's election are going to be more divisive than ever.
The EoFF Post, while not being able to speak with Necrotic, one of our readers, who wishes to remain anonymous, sent us this photo of him getting ready for the annual Easter Egg Hunt, set to kick off at Eyeson's own Fat Chocobo Restaurant.
http://www.lucaproductions.com/zombiebob/assets/images/ZombieBobBar.jpg
Fat Chocobo's President, Rubah, and Vice President -N- were also unavailable for contact. However, Press Secretary, Marick D. Pauper commented on the photo to say "We at the Fat Chocobo Restaurant are committed to the highest sense of confidentiality. We won't be commenting on the photo, or on the status of any of our patrons."
The Apocalypse Party did comment however, with their merry band of sandwich-sign wearing members, endorsing drugs in, what they believe is, the final days of Eyeson.
I'm Marick D. Pauper.
You stay classy, Eyes On F.F.
