No more a waste of time and space, but a hell of a lot more fun and telling.
So how bout it? the VP for Trolls' Bane position totally has your name on it Lotesse.

Wasn't it because Masterano, or something like that, tried to crash entmoot with a flood of poll threads? Silly git... Anyways.

Like I said Lotesse, the president thing is only symbolic. Just a way to keep this board somewhat floating since most of the talk on LOTR has died, and most of the political/religion debates end up scaring people who erroniously try to use logic, and dont beat down their opponents with endless roundabout posts, away.

It isn't, I was just responding to your words:

tHIS MESSAGE BOARD HAS THE CAPABILITIES TO PUT UP a votable poll; why have I never seen one?
I should have been more careful about exactly what I quoted in your post; my apologies.

Quote:
There is nothing irrelevant about the democratic process of the vote
Most polls have nothing to do with democratic process, just with surveys. It does make sense to use one for the Election, I agree, but even then, it's a rather dubious use of the word "democratic". Although...it does make you wonder to what extent we qualify as a Micronation.

She turned it down before. It's still there, though.

And if that's a resounding "no" on her part, then it's either Hobbit Beta, Hobbit Gamma, Elanor's Angel, or you, with almost everyone else I could possibly have selected now founding their own party.

Perhaps I should have kept my mouth shut. After all, this is all my fault.

(But because I know that will be quoted to make me look bad as elections draw near, I would like to add that, if it weren't for it being my fault, probably the very person quoting this to make me look bad wouldn't be running, so they ought to give me honorable mention. )

Aw, thanks Rohirrim!! What an awesomely sweet & cool post; thanks baby. But I must respectfully decline your lovely nomination offer, simply because I just don't have the time, at all. In fact, I shouldn't even be online right now, I need to be finishing this pile of writing for my English class which is due tomorrow, which is why I'm here right now - procrastinating. And plus, I spend a lot of my spare time more at a couple other boards, I'm simply not at Entmoot enough to be of any use to anyone in this particular campaign thingie you all got goin' on here. But thanks again for thinking of me, baby! Very cool.

Well, maybe next time around you can run for president, but if I remember right there was some discussion that indicated that the world was to end in 2012, so I might very well be the last President of Entmoot.

Yeah, shame that. But then, why does it have to end there? Britain hosts the olympics, loses, and then we'll dies. That's a great memory to die on. I feel kind of depressed now.

Well, at least you could die with at least hosting the Olympics... But who says that it will end there? Never know. It could end 2013...

Are you questioning the inerrancy of ancient Mayan astrologers? HERETIC!

Oh booger to the Mayans. The world will end when it has a mind to, so far there have been a few wrong guesses.
