This is the official thread in which you are to discuss the current election of the LMB Leader (and Deputy Leader). This thread is intended to make general comments about the election process and the candidates.

All candidates must announce their candidacy in this thread for it to be considered official!

See this thread for the rules and for upcoming announcements.

Goodness, looks like all the candidates are biding their time. I haven't seen an announcement of candidacy yet!

Folks, I realize that the idea of following Fanfie and me is a little daunting, but, really, you get to put "Your Leader" or some such as your title for a whole year! It's fun! laugh

Anita, are you not taking this seriously?

I certainly hope you are not. Why do you think I suggested you run in the first place?

Bloody Liberty! Doesn't anyone want to be seduced by absolute power? We need some candidates for leader!

Don't make me make a mockery of this! RobinIII

I swear, I'll run for leader with Nightcrawler as my deputy with the promise to promote him to co-leader! I'll do it!

Actually, I might do that. That could be fun.

The Cobalt Kid / Nightcrawler ticket is officially in business!

The plan:

Cobie runs for leader.
Cobie makes Nighty co-leader
Cobie steps down to become Deputy leader
Nightcrawler ipso facto is elected leader of Legion World! He's too great a guy to ever run himself!

Plus, I get the satisfaction of pulling one over on the other candidates, should they ever exist! And will be recorded as winning an election, if it happens! Yay!

I highly recommend other candidates with similar sneaky plots (I'm looking at you Lash & Ester) find your own heroic running mates to compete. tongue

PS - don't worry, I'll ask Nighty for his permission to be my running mate...after we win and I crown him leader.

That Cobalt Kid thinks he's so smart.

Consolidating the leadership of Legion World and the LMB under a single crown? He calls that political corruption?

I wrote the book on corruption, my friend.


Hmmm... if I were to run... who would my running mate be? I could highlight the absurdity of this political process by simply choosing someone at random, I suppose.

I've always been fond of the number, "247". Let me just consult the Legion World membership directory and see who falls on Page 2, number 47...

Oh!

Oh, that is just delicious!


I, Exnihil, hereby declare my candidacy for LMB Leader, running on a ticket with my close personal friend...

The Election Tyrant!


Now that's corruption.

I already served once! <span style="font-size: 11px;">(And anyway, I don't have a thing to wear to the seduction. Sorry.)</span>

Isn't there a list of former leaders and deputies somewhere? I recall seeing it at some point. There are a few people I'd like to nominate, but only if they haven't already served.

But point of clarity: there is no allowing for nominations. One can only run themselves, not nominate.

Which is why I'm running with Nighty as a running mate with the idea to step down and let him be leader! In other words, I'm circumventing the rules and running on his behalf!

After many years of fixing *cough* administering LMB elections, I think it's only right that I run. I accept Exnihil's offer.

Vote Ex and Tyrant. You don't want to know what will happen if you don't! evil

Being a sporting Tyrant and all, the Election Tyrant reminds all who would enter the election that the deadline to announce candidacy is Saturday evening.

Because YOU demanded it !!

PB & J, the team that sticks together, and to the roof of your mouth, is officially in the race.

For your consideration as leader:

POWER BOY

Because he's got the power and because he's a boy.

His theme song.

For your consideration as deputy leader:

Jerry - Just in case PB breaks a nail in the middle of an awesome battle, has a nervous breakdown mid-term, or just needs a nap.

Bring on the fluffers.


Beauty's where you find it. Not just where you bump and grind it.
