There were like 5-7 different "parties" and they all campaigned and held an election to see who would be in control of the OT, complete with a vote fixing scandal (I'm not kidding). It was pretty wild and was the thing that drew me to the OT... I was like, "What's with this place???"

Spam, spam, and more spam. Plus it wasn't anybody's board except Mark and Dan's. IIRC, it was the election that got the ball rolling as to whether to moderate the OT.

Wait... it wasn't moderated?

How "in control" was the winner planning to be?

None, really. It's not like they would've ended up with admin access to the boards, it was just a bunch of people being goofy, having fun, and it got a bit out of hand.

While I did win one of the elections thanks to GP putting in the ole Chicago fix... it didn't really matter.

I ended up in control anyway

No... MtG go suckered in as part of an April's gag... the gag was that we were making him a mod... but the gag was really on MtG... because he eventually agreed to actually do it after the joke was over

Ming, you are jacking this thread from important ADP business. I'm sorry, but I really feel that you are causing trouble within the ADP, something I cannot put up with. Hence I most kindly ask that you get the thread back on topic. This thread is currently about affirming the greatness of The Reagan, also known as The Holy One, Blessed be He.

Deal with it... because at the end of the day, no matter who is doing what in the ADP, it doesn't really matter.

The authority lies elsewhere...

Hmm. Since you are already in a political party, maybe you can just be some sort of advisor.

ADP Resolutions
1. The Reagan shall be referred to, in all ADP documents, as "The Holy One, Blessed be He."
2. Evil Capitalism is teh w00t.
3. There shall be a weekly Reagan (The Holy One, Blessed be He) Day, which shall occur every Thursday.
4. Minimum wage laws are intolerable and must be eliminated at all costs. They are clearly not teh w00t.

Indeed. There shall be many expensive Government Projects of Dubious worth, provided that none help The Poor.

Thank God. I would like to have the phone book delivery contract, at a mere cost-plus basis (I think 400% would about cover my lifestyle, er, expenses).

However, the AECCP is the one who doesn't want to help the poor. We're different. We realize that we need people to work for us.
