FOPS?! NAY, GOOD SIR! SPORT OF THE NOBLE! EN GARDE! *draws rapier* i shall hold you off until my ally, the great bandito, arrives! have at you!

jammi567 · 09-13-2006, 02:55 PM

Oh, like what happened in 'Die Another Day'.

durinsbane2244 · 09-13-2006, 02:58 PM

well, yes. but they were doing "theatrical fencing", that is, simply for show. lots of unneccesary flourishes and twists, as i'm sure you can imagine. also, they eventually just outright fought with whatever was near at hand. yeah...a bit...bond-sih!

jammi567 · 09-13-2006, 03:04 PM

But surely the basic concept is the same, even if they did add some stuff to it.

hectorberlioz · 09-13-2006, 03:11 PM

1) Nurvingiel was acting President

2) She is my VP, still

3) There's no way she's going to take over the dict...er, presidency.

4) If she runs in 08, I will vote for her, but will distance myself from campaigning because of what Jonathan endured from the support he got from JD...thereby causing Nurvi to win.

jammi567 · 09-13-2006, 03:13 PM

Incidently, do you consider yourself the precident of the whole of Entmoot, or just the cafe?

hectorberlioz · 09-13-2006, 03:21 PM

I was elected President of Entmoot in '04. I had 28 votes compared to SGH's 21...
It was a "real" election, yes. And term limits are four years, each term being that...you get the picture.

Gwaimir Windgem · 09-13-2006, 03:25 PM

Basically, the job of the President seems to be A) be witty B) be pretty C) impose pointless and unobserved taxes D) read blatant lies about himself, and E) be otherwise quite powerless.

Just think, jammi, in only two years, this could be you...

durinsbane2244 · 09-13-2006, 03:25 PM

so you're not going to run again? aw...Nurvy it is, then...

jammi567 · 09-13-2006, 03:29 PM

No, i'll run for it in two years.

Gwaimir Windgem · 09-13-2006, 03:30 PM

I just might run, when the time comes.

I assume the candidates do not vote for themselves?

durinsbane2244 · 09-13-2006, 03:31 PM

i might run in...well, by 2008...who knows, i just might run then...

jammi567 · 09-13-2006, 03:33 PM

It seems the major players of Entmoot will be running.

durinsbane2244 · 09-13-2006, 03:35 PM

MIGHT be running...who knows, in 2 years...

I didn't vote for myself...and Finrod didn't either. But I know the others did.

Oh you'll run alright....far away!

btw, excellent definition of the Presidency. But don't forget that I (with the help of The People) started the Mods and Admins going on the CS Lewis forum...I'm not an absolutely useless President you see...

In two years you'll be beyond "major player", all you have to do is be nice, shake hands (virtual ones) with people, and then spring 'em a surprise they'll never forget

DB: I can see you running, you've got the runner's legs...

jammi567 · 09-13-2006, 03:45 PM

Great tips, thanks.

DB's just a young sprout; look at 'im! Joined in 2005; huff!

jammi567 · 09-13-2006, 04:02 PM

he'll be 16 by then, though.

Gwaimir Windgem · 09-13-2006, 04:05 PM

The point, dear jammi (may I call you Marmalade?

), is not age (though still 16 is pretty sproutish), but Moot-age.
