And now I understand why my post sometimes start randomly with a skyblue colour-tag.

It's emp...
*changes sorting-date*
Well goddamit.
Hm... January 2002?
Is it time? :D
Aye, 'tis time.
It's usually started in December--at least that's when Mindfart came up with the original idea.
That is true, but there have been so many other things, and we've just forgotten.
BoB sez we should wait until the Thriathlon is over, though. We listen to BoB.
EDIT:
I dun wanna do it this year, let.. Umm... Someone ELSE do it! >=O
I want to lead my Newbie Party to VICTORY!
Alright, I'll put up an announcement.
I'm gonna have a party, man. And this time I'll at least pretend to do something. Yup.
Let'em use the Election Booth. =) Remember, Election Booth means Election! And Booth!
Truely, you are the master of definitions.
I might run, if I see a party that I like.
I wouldn't mind doing it... I happen to have about 0 credentials except an obsession with politics, and a willingness to make it work.
I'll do it, even if noone knows me, and I, like Bennator0, have no credentials. But, hey, why not. I apply.
I can do it, but I ain't that popular here, tho'. =(
Sure you are, Spidey.
Alright, since bennator applied first, I'm for appointing him election officer.
I'd like to get that ratified by another Staff member, though, 'cause I might run (although I don't know for what party), and I'd hate to be accused of trying to swing the vote by selecting an election officer that might be sympathetic to me. (Fact is though, I'm not smart enough to know who to pick, not knowing what party I'll run in, if I run, or even what parties there'll be)
EDIT:
Citizen Bleys: Oh, btw, we have an election officer, possibly.
DanieLoony: neat
Citizen Bleys: We got 3 applicants, and I said we should go for bennator0, since he applied first, but I want to have that ratified by another staff member.
Citizen Bleys: Such as you.
Citizen Bleys: (hint hint)
Citizen Bleys: Unless you object, in which case you can raise a fuss and we can pretend to hate each other :p
DanieLoony: who else?
Citizen Bleys: Angered Roach and The Amazing Spiderman.
Citizen Bleys: Nobody really well known.
DanieLoony: bennator0.
DanieLoony: but wait a while
Citizen Bleys: ok.
DanieLoony: We have time, coz of the Triathlon
Citizen Bleys: Yeah, I guess.
DanieLoony: and the announcement has been up less than half a day ;-)
DanieLoony: ...let alone a quarter
So, in short, we'll still accept nominations until the Triathalon is over, just in case we get someone the Staff knows better or something. *shrug*
I object. I'm sick of your backhanded political tactics, Bleys. I won't stand for it.
so how do you apply for this?
Bleh, now I feel the need to push the EoFF Triathlon through completion so I'm not stalling the election. *sigh*
I'd apply, but I really don't care. :P
I might just join every party and then, through bribes and some key assasinations, suddenly become the leader of ALL the parties, and then rule the world!!!...or at least EoFF.
Meh.
I missed the last one, hmm, might be interesting...
I hereby volunteer for the Elections Officer position.
Cheers.
*applies* xP Not many of the original International Penguins Party *cough* defending champions so to speak *cough* are still around and active and I don't fancy running my party without my old members... *misses them* I'd still like to participate though so... *fills in an application form with... a big smiley face* here ya go. :D
If Raistlin becomes the Elections Officer, I'm deleting General Chat.
Really?
In that case:
*applies* >=P
I'm trying to remember all the crap I need to get sorted out for leading Goatsecs this year... *starts working on a campaign song* XD

Holy crap, a campaign son! Yes... Must.
Nait's reformed Noob Party scares me.
Okay, the current purpose of this thread is for people to apply for the position of Election Officer.
Will the Knights please delete any further posts relating to individual parties? I will be doing so.
(Yeah, I know, I started it, but we have to keep on track here)
(You killed it, Bleys).
When are we allowed to open our campaign-threads? :)
After the triathlon. Seriously, the entire election is really those threads. The final votes don't mean NOTHING.
"The final votes don't mean NOTHING."
Reread that a couple times, BoB.
He means that votes mean everything. :p
The final votes don't mean something, anything, nothing or everything.
They don't even MEAN, man.
It's his regional dialect. If you ask any linguist, they can tell you that he clearly stated a double negative intended as a negative emphasis, as per african-american dialects in the USA. Correctly stated, though, it should have been "The final votes don' mean nothin'."
Thank you for the translation, Spuuky. We really would be lost without you.
You don't know how much that means to me.
Sakura Yume gets to be Election Booth if she wants it. Nait, IM her with the password.
Tammy, don't forget to change it ;)

Done and done.
Wait... am I supposed to change it or not? Nait said not to, Danny says does... 0.- Also Kristian, could you send me the equations you used calculated results last year?
So is this thing getting started?
1) You HAVE to change the password - Nait isn't allowed to access Election Booth if he's in a party, let alone not counting the votes.Quote:

2) Ahh, TamTam, try and think up new ideas for how the voting will be done, too. Variety is a great thing. *nods*
Or maybe think up old ideas. Y'know, like different from previous years, but things that have actually been put into practice in existing political systems. (I favor first past the post to determine who gets the slot, but you can go for proportional representation this time around, for instance)
It helps if you've taken a poli sci course. I could do it, but I'm probably going to run this time around, if I see a party I like.
