And we need to cut down some whopping big trees (sorry, Nurv!) to break the gates of the sinister Castle Dra...er...Berlioz.

MY STARS! You should about be banned for that! Here at ENTMOOT, the TREES themselves will march on the castle - and bring down its gates. After doing in Orthanc, Castle DraBerlioz will be a breeze! Cutting down the trees would only be counter-productive.

Let me be the first one to congratulate Nurvingiel and the Sasquatch of Fangorn on their co-presidency!
*Fanfares* I think a co-presidency is a great idea! Sorry Hector, reinstalling you was just the second best solution in my mind Nice job you admins and mods! What a hilarious way to end an election

Fascinating! I shall have to study this more closely... |

WE use C through B, but clearly, elves use a twenty-six tone scale. Very, very subtle music.

I hereby confer the title of President of Entmoot to Sasquatch of Fangorn and Nurvingiel. Now if Earniel would add "Emeritus" to my title, and give Nurv and Sas their respective titles .

ANNOUNCEMENT - ON PRESIDENTIAL TERMS AND FUTURE ELECTIONS:
We discussed this among the Mod/Admin staff, and we plan to make some changes. Here's what we're thinking: 1. Presidential terms will henceforth be two years (more or less). 2. Elections will generally be either end March/start April - or end April/start May. Sorry - but this will have to totally depend on how 'on the ball' the staff is that particular year (we admit we weren't all that much this year ). 3. Because we felt the early campaigning took so much steam out of the election itself, campaigning will now be restricted to the last few months preceding the election. Specifically, candidates must wait until all time zones have cleared JRR Tolkien's birthday before they are allowed to campaign. Good Rules?

Nurv, Sas - do you want 'Co-President of Entmoot' in your title? Please specify just how, or with what else. You can do it in the appropriate thread, and then either Earniel or I - or some other Admin, can take care of it.

We really should put up a poll: was the Hectorberlioz presidency a failure or success?

Hector! *tackles Hector and gives him a hug* You've been away too long!
But about that poll... are you sure you want that question answered? ...

Good rules, Val. (but we have yet to decide what we do in case of a draw.)
Sasquatch, Nurvingiel, my congratulations!

Otherwise I'm okay with Val's and the admins'/mods' rules. I just wonder if anyone will be eager to campaign in two years, when there are no upcoming presidential elections in the US? The primaries are what sparked the Entmoot elections back in 2000, 2004 and this year. I doubt the midterm elections in 2010 will generate the same enthusiasm...

Well, maybe not, but still you have to agree that four years did damage to my pysche. No president can withstand the heat that long, unless they have a will of iron.
