Cmon, we all know....




How about this one then???

To me, this whole election wasn't about winning. There's nothing to win. To me, it was about interacting with my fellow members, and watching how they acted. To watch personalities be presented, whether harsh or kind, was the amazement with which I watched this all unfold.

I want to thank ATS most of all, for allowing our charade to continue, and intrepid, who unwillingly found himself the dictator of a anthill. That position exemplifies the selflessness of the staff, and for that, I am proud to be a member.

The votes have been cast, and the winner just shy of being official. I am not he, but I am his supporter. The policies created by this imaginary election still ring softly in our minds, and the ability to speak our minds still resonates deeply in our souls.

This election has been both an "experiment", and a satisfying venture into politics. We made it realistic, and for that, I thank all the participants. We all knew there can be only one winner, and everyone had a fair chance to express their position. I am content with the results, and I think we will have a fair and just Regent.

I also wish to thank beezzer, the rabbit that got this started, several hundred threads of his own imagination. We made your thoughts into reality, and provided much comedy, much insight, and much reality.

On the eve of the election, I believe ATS has voted for the right choice for Regent.

Druid...this fake Regents election has allowed me to sink deeper into the soft depths of your ever gentle Soul....it's a comfy, warm and homey place. It's been a real privilege, one that has left a lasting impression on me. You'll always be a winner in my book.

Thank you Druid....

You've made me smile, and your words mean more than any tally from an election could. I remain myself, for you, for the world.

It's definitely been great getting to know everyone better, especially for me since I knew so very few folks (ONE) when I first came here (and she's not online much). I feel like I've gained a lot of friends and am much more comfortable in interacting when I see the "familiar avatars" in threads.
Thank you to everyone for this great experience!

I'm just glad this election didn't turn nasty, like the last time I ran for office.

Well, I may not win overall, but it was a heck of a race!!!

As far as Runner Ups go, ... I got this!!

There's still a little time left to vote folks!

Thanks everyone!

I expected the usual screams for recounts and Supreme Court intervention, but beezzer has already certified the vote, so here am I.

I'm done in at the moment, and need to get to my coffin - er, couch - and take a nap before I get cranky(er), but I'll have my press secretary prepare an unofficial official statement to be released later this evening, after the sun sets and I rise.

Until then, party on, and drinks are on the Curmudgeon tab!
