will you be running? who will win? will goof secure his 2021 victory and finally control our democracy as a paradise for the proletariat? will coconut continue into his unprecedented fourth term?

True! And remember to vote me

i wish i could refuse to put a candidate on my list so i could leave only people who i know on it

Flatulent wrote:i wish i could refuse to put a candidate on my list so i could leave only people who i know on it

You can just not vote, and then you'd be excluding all candidates, including the ones you'd refuse to put on your list if you could.

i just don’t want to accidentally vote against a guy i dont know but who may be a great dude otherwise

"i only vote for my friends"

no timonk i only vote for those who i know aren’t lying in their campaigns

Who's a spicy liar flat who is it who is it spill the tea

well i think arcanemusic isnt being sincere about being able to be in touch as hes finishing his degree “this spring” which would make it ~9 months from now and finishing bachelors usually entails making a bachelors dissertation
I realise that he says he has limited free time, but I think he really underestimates the amount of time a quality dissertation can take from you.
i also suspect many mrp admins will definetly push their policy views on lrp after they get their own headmin and i don’t think melbert is going to keep his word on staying neutral on the matter

I don't think Lepi's gonna win player vote so probably gonna be a manuelmin which will be interesting.

no one wants to nuke lrp we just want you to pretend you're on a space station and stop using the n-word so much ok

i like lrp i only play lrp its where the good memes are you can just do it without calling any character with a non albino complexion a slur

mso and oranges explicitly state mrp every time you ask for their opinion on this.
and sticky nobody is calling non albino characters on terry with the n word, its used against everyone equally. surely you’d know this by now?

they more sublimate the racism and transphobia they'll imply they have if it ever comes up into their treatment of people playing non-human characters

they view all social interactions through the lens of a hierarchy based on identity and you get the sense depressingly it's not even due to a lack of intelligence necessarily they've just been conditioned to think this way i guess through a combination of the influence of the shitholes they grew up in and 4chan. i don't even think it's a european thing specifically i think it's just a class thing or perhaps how they're raised

This is a very good point and I think we should do a global ban on anyone from these "shithole" countries or states. The entire Southern half of the US can go as well as ex-soviet satellite states.

shithole countries and shithole game such as ss14 do well together

It's weird not having a debate question to ask because I can't really think of any hot button administration issues that i think need addressing this term.

like im sitting here nitpicking candidates policy wording specifics because there's just a good selection of sensible picks that havent go anything wrong with them.

And goofball but he might as well not be running tbh

I still have no clue if that was like even a thing or not. I was only aware of 2 people being part of it, and one was the representative

goof was not the representative he just said he was and nobody said anything

i think they had an actual candidate in mind to be the representative but reportedly I pissed them off enough by running under the Free Manuel Party that they got pissed off about it and didn't run

Cimika has incredible activity levels and Mr Melbert seems to be the more consistent one around, constant activity with very few breaks.
This election has quite a lot of very good candidates, it's hard to pick. I'm hopeful for next headmin term.

Cimika and Melbert both scare me because I was adminned a little bit before them and they are already running for headmin and everything, it makes me look bad in comparison

In here you suggest removing rule 11, in favor of it being part of rule 1:
https://tgstation13.org/phpBB/viewtopic ... 52&t=29755

From my perspective, when it was so there was absolutely zero enforcement of it. I'd rather not return to those days.
I prefer friendlier environments, in where I can delude myself about not being surrounded by edgy teens and antisocial individuals who have a hard time following the basic social norms.

I agree fully, I just think that rule 11 has been rife with odd enforcement that almost always leaves the appealing player feeling like they're being accused of bigotry they don't see or it gets overturned and the admin feels like they're getting zero support on the rule they're supposed to support. It's kinda delegated to seeing what MSO thinks of every bigotry ban and I'd much prefer if we used rule 1 to not accuse people of things they'll react incredibly poorly to and instead uphold a general good environment. In that way i'm not saying remove rule 11 but i'm saying we don't need so many different rules to convey the same idea, especially if the duplication of rules is going to lead to weird enforcement

I see, I see. If not removing rule 11, what would you do? Merge it with 1 by expanding that one? Just leave it implied? Reword it..?

Expand rule 1, but honestly cut some text that isn't needed out of rule 1 and cut some other rules that are also rule 1. And cut silicon policy in half. The rules page is gonna be shorter by the end!

armhulen is it ok if i vote for you

cutting silicon policy in half will only double the amount of silicon players this is a bad idea

the hardest choices require the strongest wills

As a former silicon player i don't care except in edge cases where common sense doesn't apply to silicon policy but less rules sounds good

There's a billion candidates but only a handful of them even care enough to post in debate threads in any meaningful manner, what a sad state of affairs

And that is why I am going to win

I dig it.

I think that the headmin we elect should and also let me code for tgmc

“we don’t want to ban slurs” they said when rule 11 was just introduced
lets see how long will that hold up after this election.

also naloac really has to catch up on candidate debates

naloac has been on vacation

I know. It’s in their thread.

Oh we Germans just know too good about this

"We have no intention to build a wall"
They built one
"We never had any intention on introducing upload filters"
They pushed upload filters during the Europe Championship this year

I think it'd be funny if all pink haired felind players won.

Also I think it'd be hilarious if everyone went and wishlisted Space Station 14 on Steam.
