The elections for the 1st term of Council elders will be held from August 8th till August 11th 23:59 shard time. The details for voting will be posted here together with the list of candidates.
Council members: Please post here by August 7th if you wish to be on the ballot. You may also write a little about you and why people should vote for you.
Two council members may submit their candidacy as a pair, meaning that points for both candidates will be summed up.

Greetings! 'Tis I, Llexa, your future Council Elder! (lol)
I don't really like writing about myself, so, if you think me worthy of being an Elder, then vote for me

If you consider me to be kind, honest, and fair, then vote for me. If you hate me, vote for me anyways, b/c I don't hate back! (lol)
love,
Llexa
Oh yeah, I am a shard veteran as well

I would 2nd the motion for Llexa, she has always been fair and just! I just haven't had the time the last couple of months, otherwise I would 2nd Llexa anyway!

Llexa's candidacy approved, everybody please hold on to your hats - we will vote after August 7th.
I'm still inviting other Council members to enter the race as Llexa's running mates.

Please note that each can pick another Council Member to have as partner. Sort of like a vice president. Also if someone votes for the partner, the votes are combined.
I also need to state that the first term of Council Elders might not last the full 3 months - still deciding whether the terms should start on Jan,Apr,Jul,Oct which would be the regular yearly quarter period, or whether they should start on Feb,May,Aug,Nov, which would be the quarter in accordance with the fact that the shard was started on Feb 1st.

But hopefully he will run!

I support Llexa, as I don't have the time to run at this point.

"If drafted, I will not run; if nominated, I will not accept; If elected, I will not serve;" If........bah, the heck with it, of course I'll do it! If Llexa ask me to be her running mate, it is an honor I cannot refuse. I will gladly do it. Just bear in mind that I will be away the my computer from August 16th thru 24th. Other than that, my presence wil be here as much as humanly possible.
On a side note, how many people know who I was quoting?
5 ed to the first person to reply to my question with the correct answer.
(Kinda feel like Colibri here ;] )

"I shall not seek, and I will not accept, the nomination of my party for another term as your president."
The first I thought of was LBJ, and he said what was in my quote. The one who said your quote was someone else, but I looked it up to double check so I won't be answering.

- Your short unihandle. The unihandle can be obtained by typing [account in the game.
4. Drop the blue book inside the green ballot box.
5. When i recieve the vote, I will send you a PM that will serve as a confirmation.
