Hmm, I was thinking of actually campaigning for this job (I would give most excellent Wanax writeups), but if shlin wants it, he may have it. :bow:
Unelect
Elect: shlin28
I request my followers to do the same and thank the ones with good intentions (think it is 9-7 shlin now).
Shh... :sweatdrop:Quote:

Out of nowhere, immediately after the voting started for the position of Chief of Police, two candidates immediately pulled out fancy signs, music players, and started distributing flyers promoting their candidacy. Upon seeing the other do the exact same thing, both campaigns sadly turned negative and they spent the rest of the day mudslinging each other, forming the basest of attacks. This entire process would have made for a decent story, were it not for the fact that nobody else was paying them the slightest of attention.
Instead, there was a lot of self-voting going on for a while, until two more campaigns formed: a grassroots "draft" movement and an effective self-campaign targeting the common people of the Gameroom. What added to both campaigns' popularity was the fact that, aside from some threatening going on, they both remained positive.
Eventually, near the close of voting, shlin28's main competitor dropped out of the race, awarding shlin with the title of Gameroom Chief of Police. This announcement was met with cheers and even a "huzzah!" or two.
Eventually, shlin, outfitted with a police hat that was far too big for him and a beer in one hand, blew his new police whistle shrilly and got the crowd's attention.
"All right people," he said, pausing to take a big swig of the victory drink, "As your new Chief of Police, I shall do my very best to preserve order in this little town of ours." Taking another drink and picking up his shiny new police revolver in his other hand, he paused and fired five shots in the air.
"There," he said, "I think I have done a sufficient enough job to scare the mafia," he said to the shocked crowd. "Tomorrow we shall see if it worked."

The Detective will now randomly assigned. PMs please. This includes shlin - I need a lynching method.
Night will last for around 24 hours.
This is just another demonstration of how the current two-party political system keeps the third party representative from participating in effective governance. I demand proportional representation! It is only fair that I act as Chief of Police for 2 out of every 26 turns. To do anything less is to disenfranchise my entire constituency. I demand a recount! There was clearly vote-rigging going on here, probably from the Baby-Eating Industrial Complex and their myriad of lobbyists! Fraud, fraud I say! The people won't stand for it!
:laugh4:
How can I be part of the two party system? 12 hours ago I only got one vote... and thats from me. :embarassed:
Anyway, now I can rule this town with an iron fist! YEEHAW!
*scraps campaign promises*

Unless you plan to steal them to aid you in your dastardly murders... Tevash is mafia!!!! LYNCH HIM!
I vote that we use this humane killing device to lynch our suspects:

How about a public hanging? Old-fashioned but still does the job, plus it doesn't make such a mess... :shrug:
Hmmm....We could dunk them in water, till they die Salem style:yes:Quote:

YLC to be lynched!!
ZOMBIES!! ZOMBIES!! :furious3:
I heard the mafia occasionally drown people by giving them "concrete shoes" so maybe we should use a guillotine...
I think shlin's shots into the air did the trick anyway... i did hear some disturbing news about zombies though...
Zombies? Nonsense! However, I would like to direct the town to the free cake I wish to hand out in the light of shlin's surprise election.
Don't talk to me about zombies, I've just spent the past two hours watching my floormate play Dead Space. Close enough. ~:eek:
Ah, zombies....
While we're off topic, I can't wait for Resident Evil 5 to be released. The demo has me drooling already...
The cake is a lie...Quote:

How terrible of me, allow me to apologize properly
With all the rampant anthropophagism going on here, we may as well move the setting to Easter Island.
Good luck Shlin. Uneasy rests the head and all that piffle.
Touche sir, and congratulations on your election win. Let us hope that you are able to do a convincing job.Quote:

I'm so terribly unpopular... boo hoo...
I still get to vote! BWAHAHAHAHAHAA!!!! :evil:
I'll try to get back before the vote closes, but it will be an extra trip home on my off-day. Thought I'd be here when the vote opened, but that's 8 hours or so away, and I can't stay.
So, you're here during the night and invent excuses to be away during the day?Quote:

Two can play that game. :smartass:
He said the same thing in either the Ephesus or Chicago game (I can't remember which). The gist was that his schedule is inconvenient for day phases. That said, our man doth protest too much. Despite his complaints, he never seemed to have any shortage of activity time in either day or night phases.Quote:
