Demanding an election for the Town Elder?? I thought we already have a town elder... why, I thought you were the Town Elder...???
Well I hereby announce my campaign for Town Elder of Futility. Let it be known that, if elected, I will honour all previous agreements reached to the best of my ability, in terms of settler placement, for our upcoming suburbs. Futhermore, let it be known that, if elected, I will not serve as an autocrat, I will not base all of my decisions on my own personal gain, but I will consider the wants, needs, opinions, suggestions of all of our citizens, to the fullest!!!

Tsk, Tsk, Bismarck, the USP does not exist in these lands! 
So why exactly are you demanding an election??? Should we not, as citizens, establish, I don't know, proper protocol for, what you might say, term limits, or not necessarily term limits, but term lengths (such as two trading sessions OR 4 game turn sessions) for the amount of time that a Town Elder may serve as Town Elder uncontestd. And also, perhaps, if a town elder abuses his "power" in any way, shape, or form, any willing citizen may demand a new election to remove the Town Elder from his current position.

I am announcing my campaign for Town Elder. Uber Krux and I were working together as a team, until he decided to be self-centered, and forget the interests of the citizens of Feudality. I will work towards enhancing this city to the best of my ability. That includes, helping the shield community, the commerce community, and the food community. As we can see, Uber only seems to want to help himself, as best he can. He accuses me of being "confused" and being indirect and confusing. Yet that is not so. He points out two different times, which I will show you.
Turn Session-Orders for Feudality
We were discussing worker turns, more specifically, if it would waste a worker turn to do a certain action. I stated that I may be wrong, and that he should check to make sure. How is that being confused, confusing, and indirect?
A deal
We were discussing a deal between the two of us. I said to him "Let's make a deal." We discussed a bit, and then he asks me "What was your deal?" I had absolutely no clue about what he was talking about. He then gave me a snarky comment. I said "Seriously, I'm not being sarcastic, what are you talking about?" He then accused me of being a confusing, and indirect person. How am I supposed to read his mind? I really did not have a clue what he was talking about. It seems, Uber likes to throw out insults, just for the fun of it.
My Plans as Town Elder
I am going to set up extremely strict pillage laws. This is something that must be done for the sake of Feudality. As Town Elder, I will make a well balanced city. If it is possible, I will try to improve people who do not have very good tiles, for example, if they only produce one or two goods.
Vote Nuclear Master for Town Elder!

I will not withdraw. I may be looked upon by some as an outsider here because I am new; but that should not diminish what I have contributed to this game so far, nor should it qualify me as unworthy. There are those here, such as Bismarck, Zone, Esoteric and Toraradical that know me as Locus, Officer of the Military of the Noitazilivic D-game. They know I have what it takes to be an effective leader in these here D-games. They also know that I am a champion of the people, that when I am in charge, no voice goes unheard, no matter how small. They can vouch for me. Bismarck already has. I will not be withdrawing to throw my support towards a fellow gem-monger, when I whole-heartedly feel that I am the right man for the job.
As a current citizen I have been in negotiations with current town elder, NM, to try and get a road put through my mountain tile. He has not been able to give me a commitment one way or another. They best I've gotten is "I'll try or I'll see what I can do." Let me just say that if I am elected, I will not pursue this road in the immediate future, because I realize there are greater needs for the town of Futility so that our town can grow and compete with the other cities of our great Mayan empire; for when Futility wins, we all win!!! I also realize that there are citizins of Futility that aren't as fortunate to have a mountain full of gems or a floodplain full of food. Thus I will not look to increase my wealth in the immediate future, by building a road and/or mine on my mountain, but instead make a push to help out those less endowed citizens of Futility.
A wise man once said "If you give a man a fish,' as NM proposes to do, "he will eat for a day. But if you teach a man to fish, he will eat for a lifetime."
And that, my friends, is what I am all about.
I am General Locus, for Town Elder of Futility, and I approve this message.

So far Uber Krux appears to be the most pro-active at addressing my needs.

I have already laid out the groundwork for three possible suburbs of Feudality, and proposed a plan that would make every citizen of our great city extremely rich. By making the suburbs specialized markets controlled by the will of Feudality, we could easily create a market for commerce, another for food, and another for shields. Each city could be controlled by "voting blocks" of similair-good'ed people.
The Gem-mongers could have a city where everyone votes 100% commerce, and could then sell their goods there for an enormous profit. The shield-producers will also find themselves with a suburb specifically designed to pad their pockets. And yes, the many food-whores will also have a place of their own to sell their goods.
My plan was laid out long ago, before the rise of tariffs in our empire. Such talk only makes my plan more appealing, since there will NEVER be a tarrif on any citizen of Feudality in ANY suburb of Feudality, so long as I am acting Town Elder.
I am responsible, trustworthy, and diligent. I will work hard to plan the best possible course for Feudality, while doing my best to improve the lives of each of our citizens.
