Presidential election

[atawa]

Who shall bring our nation one step closer to victory?

You have 3 days for all polls.

[Ben Kenobi]

No, no Jedi mind tricks needed.

:ahem:

/me clears throat, and grabs podium

Over the past years, we have been blessed with many exceptional and diligent leaders who have taken a small peoples of 10 thousand souls, and cobbled an Empire now encompassing nearly 70 cities.

We have overcome the bizarre terrain of this truly odd planet, our fledgling geologists still puzzle the workings of our plate tectonics to produce such scattered mountains just where they are most inconvenient. Many have in fact believed this was all a part of a master plan, so carefully have these mountains been assembled.

However, I am not here today to laud my predecessors, but to take this Empire forward into our most glorious years. Though I must acknowledge my debt, I have many plans of improvement.

First, I hope to have every city celebrating, through the investment in marketplaces, and the improvement of terrain.

Secondly, I hope to complete the Great Railway, of which there are still cities of our own unconnected, even apart from the cities of our enemies to where our troops must go. To do this, I want to increase the number of Engineers to double their current proportion.

Thirdly, I hope to cripple the so-called Heathen Alliance, through the deployment of our courageous calvary and the engagement of our diligent diplomats, using the diplomats to knock down the cowardly walls, our foes hide behind, and then to crush their remaining garrison with the calvary.

Such are my plans, I ask each of you to vote for the candidate you feel will most suit our empire, both in drive and capacity.

Let us now hear from shade.

Good speech. We can never have too many Engineers, IMO.

[atawa]

I agree on the engineers, not on cavalry, what does our other candidate have to say?

[Ljube]

Thanks for your PM Ben

Now your mailbox is full and I can't reply

Please clean it up

[Ben Kenobi]

Thanks for the reminder.

7-0 now, Shade should really make a statement.

[shade]

I'm still alive
(had some probs connecting to poly...server didn't like me )

First off all : I look forward to the Job of VP( unless our voterbase just trippled and 2/3 of them still have to vote)
I'll do anything to help our Jedi out as good as I can by chasing away possible opponents and taking care of distracting groupies.(and if necessary atempt a coup in name of my hegemony...democracy )

I also wish to thank the 2 pll who made sure I atleast got as many votes as an average Banana

[Ben Kenobi]

taking care of distracting groupies.

You don't mean my amazons, eh?

[cavebear]

I voted for Ben Kenobi.

My respect for Shade is immense. I know he will do a great job of any position he attempts. He has experience and has shown his many skills in many governmental positions. I would trust him to get us out of any prediciment.

But Ben Kenobi has also served in our games long and ably. He has expressed his desire to lead us as our President. He was right about the celebrations when he was a lone voice in the wilderness. I have confidence in *his* abilities to lead us to victory as well.

It is a great thing to have 2 very qualified candidates for President. But let this be Ben Kenobi's time to serve the Apolyton Imperium. We want to have as many people experienced at all levels of government as possible.

I look forward to future success with either candidate, but let's see what Ben Kenobi can do as President.
