Legion World Forums LEGION OUTPOST Mission Monitor Board Every 10 Years Forum Is it time for another election?

Here's a little treat to get people excited about the elections: If I was elected leader last time, here would have been my acceptance speech:

Well it makes more sense than that triumvulate nonsense.

Space Whales are far more believeable than you guys on the pillage

Triumvirate NONSENSE? Why, you dare to question my divine being-third-to-post, er, um, RIGHT to co-rule?

Ever been smothered to death by five thousand Starhaven warriors each throwing a feather at you?

... See, Cobie, this is more fun than a boring election

I think the credentials for leader should be solely based on how shapely one's you-know-whats are.

I'd say you're out of your mind, but sure, what the heck.

I'll be the token non-altID candidate.

Miner's nominated himself!

Okay, so that brings the current crop of candidates up to:

Thora
Dr. Mayavale
Umber (& the Boyz)
Koko!
COMPUTO Jr.
"Sir Prize" (true identity unrevealed)
Stoopid Cat
Outdoor Miner

I couldn't tell if the two Double-Headers were actually running or not.

Should be a pretty interesting election nonetheless.

OH MY GAW!! Mr. David, don't forget my boyz.

Well, I can't very well ditch them once I'm elected, can I? *quizzical coo*

Sorry. I fixed it.

Why don't Brock, Ashe, & Cliff ever speak up for themselves?

They're like, too busy watching football games on TV and stuff, but I made them promise to put in an appearance and my Election HQ/Clothing Store to help drum up female and gay voters! *excited chirp!*

Hmm... with all these alt-ID's running, maybe Jinx should give it a go!

I thought Cliff was always watching Queer Eye for the Strait Guy?

And I'm glad Outdoor Miner is running! Now I'm torn between him, Thora and Umber!

Add another name to that list Caron lifeform, you you shall surely be torn limb from unkempt limb.

So speaks COMPUTO Jr.!

Yes, observe closely the mathmatical perfection of my mother board!

[LASH] Jeepers H. Tutu! [/LASH]

With all these alt-ID's running, maybe I actually have a chance this year.

What the heck, I nominate me!!

Uh... not to slow the campaign down or anything, folks, but have we decided if, when, how, or where we're actually having the election?

It doesn't seem that way. I'd really like to hear some feed back from a whole host of others: Fat Cramer, Arachne, He Who Wanders, Stu, Pov, Numf, Abin, Sonnie etc.

From what I can gather so far, it seems like the election has the green light, but with precautions! First of all, the fun level must be the most important aspect of it. The second tempers flare up or people get rude, then the fun is taken right out of it. This shouldn't be serious. To prove my point, allow me to add this

And it seems like self-nominations are the best way to go to get the thing started, although we'll have to give some time for people to privately convince themselves or others to nominate themselves.

As for the election itself, should it be done on the LMB Yahoo group? A lot of people have suggested it, but I wish more people could give some feed back.

And I think that there should definately be voting involved, so everyone can participate (those of us who don't want to be leader) and there should be an agreement that one person gets one vote (in other words, no voting with multiple ID's). I think we're all friends enough not to break this rule, although if anyone is ever revealed to do so, we will all hate you forever .

And I say Alt IDs can run! Who wouldn't be pleased if Umber were elected?

More feedback?

See, there's the problem. Government regulators are always rushing to catch up with the free market and reign it in.

I say, a vote for Obadiah is a vote for Legion World Libertarianism!!

I've been out of touch a lot, and I missed the last election, but I have seen some fun elections in the past. I'd like to try it. I agree that the whole idea is to have fun, after it's not like we're running for President of the US.

That bitch Cammy Johns, for one.

Though you just know someone 'round here is going to ask to be a "hanging Chad" inspector...

I learned how fashionable Straight Jackets are from that show.

Okay, as far as I can tell, these are the people who've declared themselves candidates:

Thora
Dr. Mayavale
Umber (& the Boyz)
Space Tart
Koko!
COMPUTO Jr.
"Sir Prize" (true identity unrevealed)
Stoopid Cat
Outdoor Miner
Obadiah Oldbuck

Cretinous males & tittering trollops, all of you!

There can be only ONE leader-- Thora of Taltar!

Oh my GAW! Torsa, you might have a chance if you, like, had a makeover.
