The point is we can't argue over it anymore. I won the election.

Ahhh. but the true hero will present themselves in the book. I guess the real determining factor will be who can change all the names of the actual hero to their own name before the book comes out? However, for you sake, I will remove my claim to Hero-ship from my signature.

Thanks :D.

By the way, this was a great experiment which showed how much words can be twisted by both sides of politics. It was very enlightening.

I can't count the number of times I burst out laughing after reading someone's post on something or another. Anyway, congratulations on the hero-ship. I'm going to officially back you as the Hero of Ages.

Anyway, it was getting hard to find ways to twist anything you said. It's probably a good thing that miyabi set this too expire today, I couldn't have held out for much longer.

It really was getting insane. I loved the part in the Heroic Debates where you were saying, "As you can all see, my opponent is delusional and is inventing things to try to confuse you and lend credibility that doesn't exist to himself."

I was laughing too hard I couldn't make a good response to that one... wow... so great.

In all seriousness, though, I think the government I spelled out there wasn't half bad.

I couldn't find too much wrong with it. That's why I had to resort to pretending ignorance of modern terms. It took me almost ten minutes to even think of doing that.

I thought people were going to jump on the concept of the Philosopher King that its pure tyranny, but really, the Council checks his power really well.

Sorry for bumping this to the top again, even though this post has little point, but I just have to say: I CAN'T BELIEVE I MISSED ALL OF THIS!!!!!!
I was away from TWG, for what, a few weeks?  And a whole election happens.  Holy Cow!
Just be warned Chaos, I'm known for planning coups.

I had more than twice the votes of Andrew. To time travel back and change events is to deny democracy!
