Vote Brendocon for fascist board dictator

If the Ivory Tower is the brain of the board, and the Transformers discussion is its heart, then General Discussions is the waste disposal pipe. Or kidney. Or something suitably pulpy and soft, like 4 week old bananas.

Moderators:Best First, spiderfrommars, IronHide

Who should not be in command of the board?

Brendocon

Vote Brendocon for fascist board dictator

Post by Brendocon » Tue Jul 06, 2004 12:24 pm

New streamlined approach to revolution!

Just everybody do as you're told and this will be over with minimal fuss.

Step 1: Everybody votes for me.

Step 2: The administration hands control over to me.

Step 3: I rule the board.

See? Nice and simple - and much less hassle than all my previous approaches.

Now, get to it!
Grrr. Argh.

I'm confused, why do you need to vote to rule a board that you already rule? :eyebrow:

How so? This includes an extra step- The actual voting itself!

Buuuuuuut I will admit, I am rather tired of the current facist regime. Quickly, before our box-headed boss returns... you hold Compy down, I'll slap headphones on him and play him a few of Dubya's Greatest Hits 'til he goes insane. Plan?

Did any of my instructions say "ask questions"? I don't think so. Just vote, already.

Yes.

But it eliminates the actual "convincing people" and "fighting the authority" steps. It's nice and simple - people accept my rule unconditionally, and the easily-manipulated Computron accedes to the people's wishes.

No fuss, no muss.

No plan of mine will ever involve me holding down Computron. Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to go and poke out my mind's eye.

VOTE!!
Grrr. Argh.

but isn't voting for Brend voting for ourselves? if brend is us and we're all brend, then if we vote him in as our new dictator, then won't we all become our very own dictators? :twisted:

Right. If the board's government is in this poor a state I think it's time to dig out the old Guy Fawkes costume and start blowing things up again.

Just call me V...

Are people even reading the poll question Brend put up?

He's one damn good puppetmaster.

You should all be ashamed.

I am ashamed.

Not because of Brend but because I'm drunk.

Again.

All the more reason why I should be in command of the staff here! You are all but mere puppets of Mr First. I have the credentials to lead.

People should always read the small print!

And, if I may point out the state of the chatroom: http://www.transfans.net/phpBB2/chat/

See? Brokeded! This is what happens when Computron is left in charge. Vote for me! Vote for me!

Your definition of broken is clearly er...broken.

The chat is fine. You type things in and chat. Now admittedly what you type doesn't appear on screen, but is that really such a bad thing?

I say it isn't. If Chewbacca isn't on Endor you must acquit.

The server's reached its disk quota—the only reason the board is still functional is because it's stored in SQL system. I'm not sure it's 100% safe to be running currently....

I can't fix the chat until the disk quota is increased or someone deletes some files which actually take up space.

And so we have Brendocon takeover attempt #....uh, we're in the thousands now, right? Oh, never mind. Call me when our boxed overseer returns to wreak a bloody vengeance and start the burnings. I'll start gathering the kindling.
