Welcome to the 2008 GameTavern Election (for moderator of Happy Hour)!

The election will be a three step process:

1) Candidate declarations.
2) First election.
3) Runoff election between two top vote getters.

As you can tell, this is step two of the process. This is a private poll in which anyone is able to vote (including the candidates and current GT staff). Voting will be monitored by myself to make sure there is no voter fraud.

Before you vote, please look at the Candidate Q&A (http://www.gametavern.net/forums/showthread.php?t=17871).

Voting ends Friday at 6:00pm CT.

I'm actually not going to vote for myself.

[Fox 6]

No exit poll?

phew...

[BreakABone]

Just for the record.
My vote IS not for sale.
I don't care how much money you offer me via AIM, MSN or a PM.
IT is not for SALE.
So don't message me on the 3 above with a monetary value.
;)

[Bond]

I probably should have foresaw the very real possibility of a tie. We might have to have two runoff elections...

[Fox 6]

No love for the B.C. runners :P

[Swan]

Is there anyway I could get negative votes?


Because that would kick ass

[Bond]

Anything is possible.

And only fourteen votes so far? Come on people, exercise your GT given right.

[Jason1]

Okay ive gotta say, that soundbite that is played upon entering the forums is creepy.

[The Germanator]

Seriously...I didn't know where it was coming from, but I had only one window open...

[GameMaster]

I haven't heard a voice that deep in a long time.

Its a good reminder though.

[Bond]

Please don't sue us for making a threat against your life or anything.

[Fox 6]

Whos voice is this? http://members.shaw.ca/commencer3/ohcrap.png

[GameMaster]

I just asked my Ouija board. It said the voice is Bond's.

[Swan]

Bloody terrifying. Just to spite the voice I shall not vote.


Take that!

[Happydude]

[Fox 6]

[Happydude]

[Bond]

Oh, that's just one of my many voices.

Just wait until tomorrow.

[Swan]

Oh yeah Bond.

You will talk here but not during TF2....


What's the deal with that!?

[Fox 6]

Oh yeah Bond.

just about to ask the same thing

[Dylflon]

Vote for me more, people!

COME ON!

[Angrist]

Ah, I thought that was part of the song I was listening to. I already thought it was weird.

BTW I don't like being threatened.

[Zen]

I want Tay Zonday to be the creepy voice.... i bet that guy's voice scares him in his sleep. http://members.shaw.ca/commencer3/ohcrap.png

[Vampyr]

I was sitting here in my dorm last night around 3AM working a Java program, and I opened up GT, and started hearing a very creepy voice coming from my headphones.

It was very scary. :o

[Fox 6]

That Yoshi, hes crazy I tell you.

[Dyne]

Sorry about the mess up there guys. I'll try to scare him away with a broom after I get my essay done here.

In the meantime, watch out for falling eggs. :sneaky:

[Dyne]

Oh shit watch ou- http://members.shaw.ca/commencer3/ohcrap.png

[The Germanator]

[Seth]

Is there a way to turn it off?
V for Typh cuz he's a local loco.

Damnit to hell.
We are trying to prevent more Canadians from gaining power. :(

[Seth]

Well, our sovereignty as a nation is pretty much out da window so anything we can get helps.

[Bond]

Welcome back, Seth!

P.S. The Yoshi voice is gone now that we got a respectable 22 votes.

[Typhoid]

So does round 2 start today, tomorrow, or is this getting dragged on forever?

[thatmariolover]

Soon.

[Typhoid]

I never admitted to reading the thread.
I WAS UNDER SNIPER FIRE, OKAY!

[BreakABone]

There is still time to turn this around.

A write-in vote for BaB is a write-in vote for the future.
And BaB is the future.

[Fox 6]

Number of the beast!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Happydude]

6661221? :hmm:

[Fox 6]

6661221? :hmm:

well just the 666 :p

[BreakABone]

6661221? :hmm:
Bleh!
See below!

Aladuf is the Devil!

[Aladuf]

6661221? :hmm:

Creepy! I heard about that thing in my World Geo. class recently about the Mayan's believing that the world would end on "12/21/2012"

Seeing '666 12 21' creeped me out. haha

[Swan]

God damn it, right before my birthday.

[Bond]

Voting closes tomorrow. The next election should start on Saturday, but I foresee us having to deal with a few problems, so that might get delayed.

[Swan]

I stilll have my vote, and I shall wait until the last second to turn the tide of this election

[Swan]

YAY!

Two votes!


Take that Jason1!

[Bond]

Since the voting was so close, I think we should have a runoff election with the top three vote getters. If no one disagrees, I'll post the poll tomorrow night.

[GameMaster]

That seems reasonable. Cutting the other four out. Then we can see where those votes will be redirected.

Right now our top three contenders are literally neck-in-neck. It could be anyone's game at this point.

[Bond]

Good good. If there aren't any further objections voting will begin at 6pm CT tonight.
