ELECTION: Term 1 Judge (2 month term)

[Locutus]

This poll is to elect the second Judge of the first term. This Judge will serve as a regular Judge, with the responsibilities that are outlined here (note that our Constitution is not final yet, so minor changes might occur), except that he will serve for 2 (two) rather than 3 (three) months.

This poll will be open for 5 days, until Wednesday 2002-12-11 ~12:15 GMT. The candidates for this position are mapfi, H Tower and redbull.

I hope this will change, but this one might get a hard one

[H Tower]

this is going to be a close election

As a judge I promise that I will perform the duties of my position to the utmost best of my abilities. As I'm sure many of you have noticed, I'm at Apolyton at all times of the day, everyday, so I can respond quickly to any requests made by the citizens of our great nation. I've also participated in the civ2 democracy game since May of this year, and I have observed what would be neccesary of judge and have even lamented on the absence of having a judge in the civ2 game.

I believe that the Court of Lemuria will need to take an active role during early game play to help iron out any bugs that are discovered in the constitution, much like the early Supreme Court of the United States did. And that's my I think I would make an excellent choice for the court, because I, along with many others, helped draft and shape the constitution we have today, so I am already intimately familar with it, which I consider being a key part of being in the court.

Unlike my fellow opponent, I will take the time to deliver a different speech for a completly different position.

I have unofficially followed courts in other Apolyton DGs, and aswell as having studied Accounting at University, I have a grasp of what the law means. I am on Apolyton at times when people are very rarely on (Nighttime in Europe). This postition in New Zealand gives me a neutral status, as I cannot be bias towards any of my fellow countrymen as they are not citizens of Lemuria.

From Hawaii to Oz, you can really vote Red!

What? your accusing me of going to show bias against citizens based upon what their location field says? that will NOT happen, I promise that I'll follow the law, with a blind eye to who I am judging, and will make a decision based soley on the facts.

Nor will I resort to mud slinging in an election, unlike some of my fellow candidates

[Frozzy]

I was not mud-slinging in anyway. I was merely saying that some candidates may choose to vote in favour of people from their countries. However, as no other NZers are Lemurians, I cannot be bias towards them.

Also, in what part did I mention you?

[child of Thor]

Hey this is hotting up!!!!!

Now, to not disapoint, i think you should both 'leek' info and pictures of your most sordid and ugly relationships with members of your cabinet. This is an accepted right of passage and i'll vote for the candidate with the best(or worst depending on your perspective!) portfolio

[mapfi]

Sorry, no ugly pictures that I can provide, at least not with me on them...
As I posted in the thread for the Senior Judge election - I'm more than happy to give that position to H Tower and therefore only really run for this one.

[Devil of Truth]

Hey ! Play nice ! We’re all friends here.

[Locutus]

Congratulations mapfi, you're now an official Lemuria Supreme Court Judge
