Hey, there are still more than twice as many Belgians as there are Norwegians. By the way, the roundabouts in Norway have road sings that say You may only go around 8 times

Wait, what? This is fixed! Isn't it interesting, dear Mooters, that there are no actual ballots that can be recounted or examined? I find that very interesting.

Haha I don't know, I guess it's illegal? I didn't know we had that law
But it's probably around so that whenever Swedes come around they have something to relate to, cuz u know, Swedes need rules and laws and everything. They missed out on the common sense part. And there are signs in Sweden which state 'Don't walk on the grass'
But I shouldn't be talking.. I'm 1/8 Swedish

Yes, but not more than eight times in one direction.

Don't rest on your laurels yet though Hector!

Entmoot Election
Ballot Box

Announcement

It has been brought to my attention that a certain Hector, last name Berlioz, has been bribing officials to rig the latest election in his favour.

It was revealed that certain, rare original music sheets, an historical archive concerning the Kingdom of Arnor, and a strange, closed container from which occasionally emerged the sound 'ribbit' have changed hands to ensure Hector's second term.

This all began to unravel when the items in question each turned out to be fraudulent.

It will be investigated who received these bribes and who is responsible for the false result of the elections.

Hector is therefore stripped of rank. The two real winners of the election, the Sasquatch of Fangorn and Nurvingiel will have a co-presidency instead.

All hail our new overlords!

Only person whom I am surprised stooped to such depths would be Tessar! But I suppose every man has their weakness... Earnie and Val well, unsurprising.

What surprizes me most is that Tessar didn't already have all of the rare music sheets of the world hoarded in that musical dungeon of his. It's well known he only lends them out to museums and such.

Prepare for a full confession on my part tomorrow. I will also indict the admins and mods.

Bribing Earniel with a frog... shame! You know she can't resist them. I'll bet you made sure it was a blackmarket chocolate frog brought over from the HP section too...

I suggest a lynching. Only the mob can possibly sort this out.

confession

Yes, it was a huge conspiracy. As long-time president of Entmoot, power had exercised its...um, power over me. I felt I had to secure my position here at Entmoot, so I bribed all the admins and mods.

Earniel, I knew, would be the most susceptible to bribery. All it took was promises of the land of Chocolate Milk and Honey, and she was on board with my plan.

Tessar was more reluctant, but after I handed over some rare sheet music he was more than willing to join.

And what are you trying to accomplish by confessing this? *raises eyebrow, looking with suspicion*

If you are really going for this in this way, you should take some torches with you and wait for the dark...

You know, I wouldn't mind Hector for four more years. (or one or two or whatever)

I am interested in how many votes each candidate got. Is the Ballot Box willing to post them?
