Election 2008 Official Nomination Topic

#1

Post by Sean P Kelly » Thu Sep 25, 2008 1:44 pm

I will probably relaunch the site tomorrow, but here is the official nomination thread for the NC Elections.

If you already threw your name in the hat in the last topic, your space is safe, just repost here.

All you have to do post your candiate and the party the candidate will represent.

The Neglectocrats is already taken with Churro (with running mate Citrus Man) running for re-election.

As such available parties are:
  • Retro Activists (likes older games better)
  • Subconians (SMB 2 characters)
  • Radical Extremists (radical characters)
  • Bill Moose (Bill's party)
  • Nintendoites (New party for non-Mario Characters - created so MetalMan can run as himself as planned)
To start things off, here is my nomination.

Candidate: Dr. Crackle
Party: Radical Extremists

We's do the nominations for about 2 weeks before starting the primaries.

EDIT: Going through the old topic here is what I can gather:


-MM (Himself)
-Crazyswordsman (as Lemmy Koopa)
-Panfan
-X-3 (Extremely Large Goomba)
-Jay (as Churro, Bill)
-MC
-Jigglypuffer (as Koopa 3-3)
-L007
-DarthButcher (Donez)
-Young Edsel(Iggy)
-JaredThaJAsWelch (Stanley the Bugman)
-vanherrmann (Lord Crump)
-Sandcastle Disco(Booster)
-Romplayer (Yoshi)

Reply to comfirm/pick a party (and in some cases, a character)

Okay, Wario will probably just exploit him anyway.

Extremely Large Goomba has dropped out of the race due to publicity over the affair he was having with an underaged Koopa worker.

Suddenly, a challenger appears! Larry Koopa! You know, that guy who was the first boss in SMB3? And second-last in SMW? No? Don't blame you, he's been rather hidden from the public eye.

Until now.

I'm not sure someone whose only been registered this month is good enough to manage the main NC character

I think the best party for Lemmy is Radical Extremists. Do you disagree?

For the Bill Moose party, I nominate Bill.

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

The election page is now up.

(on the technical note, while I like ROMPlayer's design, it has many redundancies in the code making it tricky to edit -- could have used SSI)

OK, I thought I would do a quick sort of all the registered candidates into their most likely party to see how many party slots we have left.

Neglectocrats
  • Churro (CM - Jay)
Bill Moose Party
  • Bill (CM - CaptHayFever)
Retro Activists
  • Koopa 3-3 (CM - Jigglypuffer)
  • Stanley the Bugman (CM - JaredThaJAsWelch)
  • Yoshi (CM - Romplayer)
Subconians
  • Donez (CM - DarthButcher)
  • Hawkman (CM - Dark Zero)
Radical Extremists
  • Dr. Crackle (CM - Me)
  • Lord Crump (CM - vanherrmann)
  • Booster (CM- Sandcastle Disco)
  • Lemmy (CM - Crazyswordsman)
  • Iggy (CM - Young Edsel)
  • Wario (CM - MushMan)
  • Larry (CM - X-3)
Nintendoites
  • MetalMan (CM - himself)
Alright, so at this point, the Radical Extremists are nearly full with room for one more candidate. Neglectocrats and Bill Moose are also spoken for.

The rest of the parties have plenty of room (up to eight). Just a note, the Nintendoites party can feature NC characters that were previously members of the Neglectocrats.

OK, I created the campaign topics, so candidates can start campaigning there immediately and save this topic for nominations.
