Election Nominations thread (non-party specific)

[Kuciwalker]

Ok, never mind, I'm going for Public Works. Hopefully, the Banana won't beat me (shudders at his horrific luck so far in elections). Anyway, one reason you should vote for me is that I'll likely be less annoying after having been a Minister

[adaMada]

Spiffor, you should run for something if you can... I think you'd be a really good minister.

Uber, you gotta run for SMC (please )... we gotta have a good military advisor if we're gonna survive much longer, especially considering that the AI'll be coming out of REX soon and'll be bloodthursty. No one else has even asked for the job, and it's hard to imagine anyone who'd be much better at it then you've been.

I like a lot of the other names I'm hearing for positions... I think we're well on the way to ahving another great government.

AdaMada :
Sorry to disappoint you, but I'll have very little internet time during all weekdays in September. Therefore, I couldn't be a good minister during this period (I previously ran for economy as an emergency measure, but I've stepped back, now that Donal Graeme candidated)
I might come back to official posts in October, if I feel needed. In the meantime, I shall be a watchful citizen during my weekends.

[adaMada]

Ok . Had to throw forth my support anyway, but I understand the time pressure.

Should you go for an official post in October, you have my support then. Either way, you contribute greatly as a citizen, and I'm happy to see that you'll continue to be able to contribute to our great nation at last as a citizen (part-time, if nothing else) .

It would be a brave man who would step into the shadow of Uber.

Apocalypse and Duddha are both running for Science Dude. Could either of you (Duddha more likely) switch to foreign ministry?

pweeeeaase?

[Apocalypse]

Maybe I'll switch. I'll have to look at what the foreign minister does exactly though. I'll think about it.

[Ninot]

quick question to all candidates

when I make the election polls, would you rather i include party affiliation or not?

[Apocalypse]

I'd decided to stick with minister of science. My schedule might prevent me from being a good foreign minister.

Ninot: I don't give a flying ****.

Well... okay.

* Jonny gets a coin and flips it.

It's heads... that means YES.

[Apocalypse]

Well I commented because you asked in the post before so I didn't want to seem rude. I said "****" to be ironic.

Top list updated - still no SMC candidate

If anyone wants a certain position (at the moment you would be unopposed), then go for it. Doesn't matter how much/little you have played the game, the people make the decisions, and the Ministers (past, present and future) should be more than happy to give advice where it is needed (I'm relying on Trip and Ninot for this! ). If you can't think of strategies to begin with, just ask for help! There is a huge amount of talent in the citizenry here - harness that talent.

No other Presidential candidates!?!?!?! C'mon people. I don't wanna hear any complainin' about turnchats/threads and such afterwards unless someone opposes me.

PS Sorry about the slow update here, I have been rabidly busy. Good news - the upcoming week is my last at Uni before a two week break. Thus I can be online nearly 24 hours some days if necessary, getting all these so far little specified amendments enacted, and by the looks of things aiding UnOrthO in reorganising this monster of a bureaucracy.

I was certain there would be much opposition to me running for President - so where are the naysayers? Let everyone know why I would suck as a President. This is a Democracy - I wanna see some protest speeches! (I am not a party member of any kind, so you actually need a good reason. )

[notyoueither]

Well. Now might be a good time to rush through a law delegating any unfilled/abandoned post's responsibilities to the President to fulfil as he sees fit (make the decisions himself or appoint a minister).

Either that or draft Uber.
