It is that time again, attack helicopters and gentle---oh who am I kidding, you're not gentleman, but we like you just the way you are.
So here is how this glorious display of democracy works. Every half year we elect a leader to be our President of the Off-topic Republic. They will stay in power for roughly 6 months, at which time they can renew their campaign if they can win the next election.
Most of you are familiar with this already, but it never hurts to recap.
[i]For this year's election. [b]In order for them to be eligible, they have to get five bumps, one of those bumps can be their own.
In order to nominate someone (you can nominate yourself) make a post with the #offtopicelection tag and state your nominee. If you can collect 5 unique bumps (not likes) then you are officially in the running!
**Girraffalope is exempt from this as she is the previous president and has instant nomination if she wishes to run again.**
Those Bumps have to be unique, for example. If user A bumps user B, user A cannot bump user C.[/b] You are not required to vote for the candidate you nominate/bump.[/i]
The official polls and voting will start roughly a week after this post to allow everyone a chance of participation.
Good luck, everyone and may the best candidate win!

Editado por Sylver: 11/14/2020 4:11:35 AMSir DeedSinger, I would like to put forth a proposition. Although Aifos was not the previous president, as last term’s runner-up candidate, he should earn an advance eigibility. I say this entirely out of the independent care for the well-being of the sub that resides within my beating heart.
