Kloreep · January 5, 2003, 21:48

7 days away; I think it's time for this.

I'll edit in candidates as they announce themselves. (And I can also edit you out if you withdraw, but you don't want to do that, now do you?

)

President:
Arnelos
Aro
Aggie

Domestic Minister:
joncnunn

Supreme Military Commander:
Meshelic
mrmitchell

Foreign Affairs Minister:
Shiber
Thud

Meshelic · January 5, 2003, 21:59

I nominate Shiber for FAM!

E_T · January 5, 2003, 23:07

I am announcing that I will NOT be running for any position in the next Term. Nor Will I accept any other position in the Government. It is time for me to just be a plain Senator for a while.

Thank You Aploytonia, for Allowing me to have made several Contributions to this Great Nation.

The Roleplay Team from the PtWDG cheers!

Since the number of citizens willing to be Regional Administers had such an impact last time on the Domestic Minister nominees, I thought I'd mention that I would be happy to serve the next DM as well, preferably in Old France.

Hey, I still need to get the darn Game....

And It won't be for quite a while

But I can still be the Wandering Entertainer that you all know & love so well (Hey, who called me a Gypsy...)

Spiffor · January 6, 2003, 04:08

I will NOT run for any official position next term. Being DM this term was too damn time consuming, and I didn't even do the third E_T did during his time.

Thanks for the early vote of confidence!!

Yes, I would like to run for FAM.

I recommend that Meshelic and Roadcage run for SMC. Both are excellent strategists, and this could be a close and interesting race.

Meshelic · January 6, 2003, 05:58

If it was possible, I would definetely enjoy a Joint-SMC position with Roadcage.

But I must decide on my availability until I confirm whether I'll run for SMC. Lately I haven't been of much use at all to E_T, the current SMC, mostly because I've been out of action most of the time, but also due to availability. However, I may be willing to run for SMC.

I still think roadcage and I would make an excellent team......

Kloreep · January 6, 2003, 15:28

I also plan to apply for a RA position.

Panzer32 · January 6, 2003, 16:42

I would probably still want to be an RA.

I second that.

I also will not be running for another position next term (nor accepting poisitions). Although I have enjoyed the being FAM, RL will be demanding much of my time so I will not be able to do it any justice. Besides, I support shiber.

Shiber · January 6, 2003, 18:18

Thanks!

Meshelic · January 6, 2003, 19:53

Well I guess I've got two nominations (again!!) so this is the part where I announce that I shall run for SMC this term. Good luck to any who might run in opposition, and anyone else.

Meshelic

PS All you Labor Party members should look for a position to run for (if you have the time of course).....just to encourage you a bit.

Who knows, if Shiber and I win then the ALP is 1/2 of the government.....besides the Senate of course...

Kloreep · January 6, 2003, 21:53

Go Meshelic! Go Shiber!

Now, will there be any DIA candidates?

As the Current SMC and formerly in Opposition to Meshelic (during the last election), I think that he will make a great SMC. When he has had the time, he has made some valuable contributions to my tenure as SMC and will fully support him in his quest for this Office.

Although, I fear that most of his term will be involved with the training of his troops for the War against England, He will still make a great peacetime SMC, too.

Meshelic, make sure that you work closely with the DM.RA's as to what you will require for your troops.

I thank you for your support E_T, although you may exaggerate my input a little bit....

Aro · January 7, 2003, 04:31

Meshelic and Shiber... I'm proud of you, guys!

Shiber · January 7, 2003, 05:12

Thank you everyone! All this support I'm getting really warms my heart, and I'm sure Meshelic feels the same.

Indeed.

Thanks all!

Now who's going to run against me? C'mon someone do it, I'd rather lose a race than win an uncontested election!

Shiber · January 7, 2003, 08:27

Same here really. Winning or losing makes no difference to me - if I lose the race I can always be RA and keep myself busy until next term.

GhengisFarb™ · January 7, 2003, 10:43

I nominate donegeal for Domestic Minister.

Aidun · January 7, 2003, 19:50

I would like to nominate myself for RA.

Aidun

Meshelic · January 7, 2003, 21:50

No Presidential or Domestic Minister volunteers?

[Joke Veiled Threat]
Don't make me impose a military dictatorship! No Prez and that's what you'll get!
[end of the joking vieled threat]

really i'm just kidding, don't hold it against me in the elections!

Kloreep · January 7, 2003, 23:51

Come on, we need a Prez!

And we need a Domestic Minister, too. Remember, there are several RAs lined up already:
dejon
Kloreep
Panzer32
Aidun

That means there's already RAs for all but one of the current provinces. And if Shiber loses, looks like he'd be an RA too.

Panzer32 · January 8, 2003, 00:56

maybe we could have a domestic ministry made up of RAs without a leader, if worst came to worst... we would also need a PW person though...

Kloreep · January 8, 2003, 01:05

If we could just get two more people on board (another RA and a PW person), we could essentially have that; someone would need to run for DM and make the appointments, but there wouldn't be too much fuss after that. (Basically how this term operated.)

nz_upy · January 8, 2003, 01:57

Is this legal?

Shiber · January 8, 2003, 02:42

IMHO there'll be little work left for the DM next term. After most of the PWs are done, all the DM will have to do is to go over RA orders, which he doesn't really have to. Instead the DM can go over the orders of a random region before each turnchat to assure that the empire-wide needs are fulfilled (sort of like random inspections).
