Many public announcements Support Apolyton, pre-order Civilization IV

First, due to RL situations, I will no longer be able to put out the Gazette. I authorize anyone to use the name and continue if they so desire.

Second, I hereby drop any attempt to impeach Thud. While I still maintain that there is grounds for it, and feel he should be, I don't have time to carry it out, and by the time any trial and poll was held it would be rather pointless at this stage since the elections would be over. Perhaps the court should look at ways to streamline the process? It's been nearly a week and it never even became an official court case...

Third, I have had allot of fun and thank everyone for allowing me to participate in this game. I will be around when possible, but not very often. Good luck, and don't let this game die out.

finally, I wish everyone a happy holiday season

Unorthodox:
I hope everything turns out well. This is all seems pretty abrupt and I assume relativly serious. Good luck, enjoy the holidays if you can and I wish you and your family health and good fortune.

We will miss you;

So the general populace does not have distorted view of the facts, unfortunately for Thud, he lives in a magical land where occassionally there are great thunderstorms, and lightening strikes and power surges occur. Somtimes in this mysterious place, hard drives crash and get ruined. Sometimes in this land they celebrate a holiday and getting a replacement computer is impossible until after this strange holiday. And then, sometimes replacement computers are @$#%, and despite assistance from tech support, IRC can't be accessed. On top of all this, sometimes deputy ministers are hard to come by.

Thank goodness Aggie, Togas, and the Ministers were a bit more understanding.

Thud would not have been impeached, and no Removal from Office hearing would have been necessary.

I know this because he had the best lawyer in all the land - me.

Support Apolyton or Terrorists Win

jd, no offense, but had the court actually acted upon this, I would have mopped the floor with you. None of that exempts the fact that he never did his job, and also publicly stated he was considering resignition because of it as well. Yes, sad things happen, that does not mean you should keep your position. But like I said, it is pointless now since the term is over.

Oh yeah, as if - -

By the way, he never said anything about resignation publicly, perhaps he did in PMs to you, but I can't find any public record of it.

In any event, contemplation of anything is not admission of guilt, and he never did resign.

Thud has always served us well here and RL happens. Most people would have given him the benefit of the doubt, if the Court allowed for the Removal of Office hearing, which I doubt they would have. I think we all deserve that kind of consideration.

Remember this is a game for fun, the rules and legal peripheral stuff we created here is not as important. Its also about teamwork and coming together to win the Game as a group, not about impeaching someone who had a horribly bad week. We all should remember that.

In any event, Good Luck with your RL situation that calls you away,

You are right on one thing. There is no public record of resignation consideration, it has been conveniently editted away. you all know my feelings on THAT issue...what is it with the DIA leaders and editing away anyway?

It's really too bad I don't have time to argue this with you.

I do not see how the court could have denied a hearing, but do not deny the poll may have come out in Thud's favor.

Sorry, love a good debate, especially when I believe in it strongly, as in this case.

Damn, your on to us. We delete all our posts.
I remind you again Thud never did resign, nor should he have.

OK I'm done on this.

adaMada was the right man for the job when unorthodox left the first time. Maybe he will do it again?

Or maybe someone will have to start a different newspaper....
