A Land Far Away

No, you may not.

TL;DC

Are you a serious candidate or are you running for your own amusement?

can i vote for you

He'd get my vote.

The internetz is serious business.

Are you, or have you ever been, a jagoff?

MShady - I am as serious as I need to be.

Kestenvarn - Can you? Apparently. Should you? Thats up to you.

Psycho_Leo - Yes, it contributes a significant portion to the GDP.

Burt - I feel that identifying myself as a registered member of the Jagoff community would violate my rights to personal privacy. Not to mention that if I did identify myself as a member, it would likely outrage Jagoffs everywhere. *keeps an eye on the Swift-Ball Jagoffs for Truth*

When you inevitably win, what will you do to the lifeless husks that were once the bodies of your fellow competing candidates?

Well as everyone knows, people, even the lifeless husks which remain, can be valuable resources and should not be completely wasted. Often times remains can be recycled, either organically or through various other decompositional practices. I believe that, once their existence has met its peak marginal value, they should be reincarnated and reintegrated into categories which best suit their new personal advantages so that they may once more become an asset to the organization. For some, this could mean assistant positions, research gathering, critics for alternating perspectives, dog food, or ashtrays.

Have these elections turned into one big joke? Are the Admins just a shadow?

When you have an election where one person wins, then they quit because they don't get along with the other admin, then the election is held again, and they run again, and they win again, and then somebody demands a recount, and then they win nigh unanimously, and then they are again placed in a position by the other admin where they feel they should quit for good, How can anyone take it seriously. I mean, look at this. These elections and administrator positions look to the common player like they've been choreographed by the director of The Benny Hill Show.

Are the admin just a shadow? Well, should an administrator do their job correctly, yes they would very much resemble a shadow. It would be a situation where the feelings they express and the rules they set into motion seem so natural that we barely even remember they are there. But if we ever needed them, all we would have to do is throw up a light.

Administrative positions aren't for people who want authority, as true authority belongs to the player base. The DMA position is simply a task for somebody who can occasionally lend a creative and experienced hand into pending details of a story, and know whether that story will be good or bad for the setting.
