Mister can you tell me where my love has gone? Elections '08 Results Thread. Oh yes.

[Election Booth]

Elections 2008
It's the end of the line.

This week we saw Barack Obama claim victory in a hard-fought election. Now who will emulate him? Will it be Rye and Avalanche? Or will theundeadhero and his Shinra party emerge victorious?

After weeks of campaigning, we reach the end of our road. It's time.

I'll update this as often as I did the tasks thread, ie, once every 5-60 minutes. The more you post, the more it'll make me want to update! Obviously I'll be doing this in reverse order because it's no fun if you start with the Presidency!

Remember - THE PARTY WITH THE MOST VOTES IS THE ONE THAT WINS. In the event of a tie, it is the party with the most categories won.

So uh...shake your money makers! First up, we've got The World is Square...And Enix. Flying Mullet takes on qwertyxsora. Who do you think will win? Who do you want to win?

WOO QWERTY!

First post

[Psychotic]

Yeah, I want WOO to win too. He's a good guy.

[Freya]

What be you talking about?

[Psychotic]

I can edit your post just as easily as you can, you know.

Gen Squen!

A battle for control of the forums you're too scared to go in. Who is the victor? Well I can tell you it's

Flying Mullet

Flying Mullet....................11
qwertyxsora......................10

First blood: Avalanche! Yeah it was very, very, close, but Mullet has just managed to shade it. A blow for Shinra, the southern forums are their heartland. Still, I'm sure they'll be able to hold onto The Smell of Fear. Right? ...right? Well it's up next, when Aerith's Knight duels with Laddy.

Running count:
Avalanche: 11, 1 category
Shinra: 10

[Freya]

It's ok shinra, we can manage. Go AK!

[demondude]

I already said, the only true winner is Mittopotahis.

[Freya]

I already said, the only true winner is Mittopotahis.

One time I agree with you my friend.

[Momiji]

Whoever wins should be treated by Shinra to the restaurant of their collective choice.



...what, you thought I was done with that?

The Smell of Fear

Shinra were hoping for a strong showing here, and well...

Aerith's Knight

Aerith's Knight...................12
Laddy..............................9


Another close victory, but this time the result is reversed. And now it's all square between the two. Can Aerith's Knight take another FF forum, as him and Fate Fatale square off for control of the Quickening? You're about to find out, folks.

Running count:
Shinra: 22, 1 category
Avalanche: 20, 1 category

[Rye]

I'm on tenterhooks!

[Freya]

YAY you got one AK come on, get it again for us

[Peegee]

*sharpens newbie banning tools*

Woohoo Shinra!

The Quickening

Mmmm, Aeris porn. Mmmm, Quina porn. What a task I set. I will drool over the entries for this many times over the coming months. Oh, right, you want a winning? Here's your freakin' winner.

Aerith's Knight

Aerith's Knight...................11
Fate Fatale.......................10


Good. Gravy. You can clearly see how this thing is going down to the wire here folks. Aerith's Knight scoops the double! Last Final Fantasy section, Nerds in Paradise, coming up, and Shinra will hope to finish well before entering the Avalanche heartland. Can their candidate, qwertyxsora, overcome his disappointment of losing to Flying Mullet to claim victory over Rantzien...?

Running count:
Shinra: 33, 2 categories
Avalanche: 30, 1 category
