GoW Emperor Elections.
Since GoW is currently in an Anarchy, I therefore have just as much authority as GF or Panzer.
Having set up no system to deal with ties in our idiocy of a Republic , and since it does not really effect overall GoW policy, I hereby am polling the public forum for our official tie-breaker. (hey, this is Anarchy, I can do whatever I want, what is GF/Panzer going to do?)
So, 3 days, choices are
GhengisFarb
Panzer32
Banana
If GF should see fit to remove me and ban me from the team I also hereby formally request asylum with one of the remaining teams. Anyone in need of a semi-decent ambassador? I have some minor experience in PR as well...

I think a short summation of their respective stances on the issues (particularly GoW's relations with the other teams ) would assist us non-Warmongerers in making a choice.

p.s. oh, and if you do get kicked out, drop me a line

I do believe we have excess wine...
I could maybe find it in my heart to share some of this with those who support me

Suddenly...Ennio Morecone music starts wildly pouring out of nowhere...
In the middle of the hot, dusty graveyard in the heat of the day, a man slowly walks forward, his eyes all squinty, chewing on a little toothpick that he got from...somewhere.
OK...Panzer...where are you?
From behind a gravestone stands a tall, dashing figure, who's eyes are all squinty, and who is chewing on some baccy.
You're ready, eh? Well, Ghengis, I guess it's time...
Ghenghis nods...
Yeaaaah. I reckon.
Panzer nods...
Yep.
Ghengis sniffs...
That's right...
Panzer knocks a bit of dust off his soldier...
Quite.
Then, from out of nowhere, a lone horse rides down a dusty ridge...the rider is obscured by the big, Mexican blanket he has slung over his...shoulders.
Riding up to them, he spits some bacco at their feet, and dismounts...
Settling this like Warmongers, eh? Only if you take me out...
Ghengis and Panzer gasp...the fastest hand in Bob!
Banana strides forward...
Yep. It's me, boys.
Ghengis nervously reaches for his pistol...
Panzer does the same...
Banana eyes both of them...he reaches for his two...
A three-way duel...man, he really hates them...
And so it goes...Ghengis looks around nervously, beads of sweat pouring down his face.
Panzer is quite the same.
Banana remains rather unmoved, not actually having a face to begin with. However, Ghengis and Panzer both believe that they see beads of sweat rolling down his peel...or is it banana juice?
Panzer is getting itchy...one hand slowly goes up, reaching for his brow...
Ghengis becomes tense...is this a ploy... He nervously eyes both his enemies as the music rolls on...
The sun beats down on Banana, his shadow rolling down in that sort of bananaee way... He reaches towards his gun slowly with one cartoon hand, covered by a big white Mickey-Mouse glove...
Panzer plays with the part in his hair slightly...he nervously watches his enemies with both squinty eyes squintily squinting at his two squinting enemies, who are squinting because in this glare everything is all squinty...
Ghengis watches and begins (once again) to slowly reach for his gun...
Banana just stands around like a banana.
Panzer continues to move his hair around...his other hand crawls slowly down his tummy and towards his glinting revolver...
Ghengis once again starts to reach for his gun...no, it is not the editing, he keeps retracting his hand whenever the scene changes so that the suspense can keep up...
Banana just...does something that only bananas do.
The three men (well, the two men and the banana) continue to slowly reach for their guns...
The music reaches a belchy, grunty sort of crescendo.........

Sorry, Unorthodox...this is from the Sergio Leone version, coming out in about 2500 years. It's been updated.

Aparantly in my attempt to roleplay anarchy here in this thread, I may have stepped on some toes?
And here I had envisioned all the GoW members making their own poll and then arguing over who's was 'official'.
If I have indeed stepped on anyone's toes here, I say to you.
Step back a bit and you will see the attempt at humor.
Oh, I also formally declare myself as dictator and sole leader of GoW until the civil war is over.
Master Zen pulls UnOrthOdOx aside
What? what do you mean our Code forbids it. To hell with the code, this is Anarchy!!! I do as I please, that makes ME the leader!!!

Perhaps, UnO, when you visit our fair isle, you can explain to us Stormians the seemingly bizzarre behavior of you Warmongers. I, for one, have no idea what's going on.

Tight election, heated words, dissenting opinions, hurt feelings, and a few people who are just begging me to get angry enough and put an end to it if this does not stop VERY soon.
I am not afraid to take actions for the better of the team, my fellow team mates should know that based on my history in the SPDG. I have called for impeachement there, I am not afraid to take similar actions here if they are needed. At the same time I for one am attempting to still have fun here and DO apologize for the serious nature of this particular post. It is not what I intended for this thread. However, perhaps it's serious nature will reach those to whom it is targetted so that we can get back to what is important. To have to read about people desiring to quit it is clear things have gone too far. Step back, look at the bigger picture, and let's get back to work.
That being said I also realize I have done something as idiotic in the past myself and now must seek out BetaHound to recitfy that situation as much as possible by returning to the ISDG.
If you are asking about IN-GAME, I am indeed sorry. The current situation has precluded my attention to those matters at the moment.
