I would have run for YOUR job, Hydey, but some of the soldiers that heard me started clutching their swords in a rather intimidating manner.
Besides, I would never seek to deprive the Imperium of your prowess.
Nice soldier.  Put the pretty sword down - you wouldn't want to accidentally get it dirty with my blood now would you? Of course no - WHAT'S THAT OVER THERE?!
/me runs like the wind

Strangely, they weren't to be seen.
There was just a single note left in their empty barracks.

I see you have nominated me to run for a position
my computer has some sort of virus and my mother has my xp disks......
I have long considered running and now would likely be a good time to run.
heck i can't even play MP or fix my satelite right now......
Therefore, the only thing left to decide is what to run for
i have only just started spam..er posting in the forums again this week.....for the most part i was non existent..
My name suggests that I should run against Hydey, but I don't want to see that idiot Sparrowhawk in office, so put me down for Science

 well done 
i will run for office, BUT..... and here is where i am worried..... i can't predict whether or not i can receive and/or get the game files working right now.....
if your willing to put up with delays etc....then i will run, if not...then i suggest i hold off runing for office again , until i fix my computer issues.....
sounds a bit like a cop out (sets himself up for flaming) but its just he reality of the situation....
Just out of curiousity..... have the presidents ever felt like they run a better dictatorship than a democracy ?

If shade isn't interested, I'll run... subject to my having to be away part of the month, which makes me a less than ideal president. But then... how long has it been since any real world country was governed by an ideal president?

Though I am unsure if this position normally gets nominated or if you end out giving it to whoever has the talent, time and willingness (in no particular order  ), I did not want to forget about Atomant.
I think everyone who read his history thread got a laugh out of it and in my case, more then a few laughs. So before the nominations close, I just wanted to nominate Atomant, again for the position of Historian, and hope that he again desires the job.

I totaly understand, especially since I've been only sporadicaly present last month.
...the only thing left to do for me now is installing Civ2 on this PC en hope to get ellected (or else I'll be VP of John... in that case I'll make sure there are enough intrigues for everyone )

Sounds to me like you knew this was coming.
Besides, doesn't every forum need someone to pick on...and since Hydey has the army to back him up....

I *was* hoping you would run for office this time, but you'll be ready for that when you're ready. It is a bit of a change from the ordinary responsibilities of playing a game just for yourself, but most everyone survives this new challenge.
Maybe next term... Meanwhile, keep offering your advice and suggestions and get a feel for the requirements of public office during the next month.
