With regards to the elections, I'd love to do something for them, but I'm unsure if we have the bandwidth to be perfectly honest.

I'll speak with a few people next week.


If I could help in any way, I'd love to.

"Presidential candidate revealed as drone impersonator !"
"Candidate spotted at pleasure hub ! approval ratings from exotic dancers soar !"
"Rivals accuse each other of being soft on defence! Mannar voters despise both!"

Etc.

Please let's not bring RL politics to the game. I come here to get away from that madness.

Bad enough the federation is threatened by "one of those" politicians who will be putting "what you are" ahead of capability. We've have enough of that crap in RL we don't need it here.

Honestly, I'm totally happy with news stories instead of events, if it means that CCP can do something for the election.

I'm guessing we'll find that out over the next few weeks.


Also where do we submit our applications >.>

We have a plan. More will indeed unfold and this won't be left hanging. We made the initial news item to set the scene for doing this with a bit of substance to it rather than just a one shot 'X won it this time' news item.

Will there be an epic lagfes.... err battle with a titan over a planet to decide the election? :)

I don't judge people by their race, religion, color, size, age, gender, or ethnicity. I judge them by their grammar, spelling, syntax, punctuation, clarity of expression, and logical consistency.

Psht, we had one last time, unofficially granted, but we had one!

So HUGE question for CCP.

Granted I am not a Gallente role-player, so my opinion wouldn't matter much in this matter lore-wise, BUT:
Are the actions of players in game and especially the postings of Gallente players in IGS going to in any way influence what is going on with this election? I know the capsuleer population is relatively minor compared fo the regular population and IGS a fraction of the capsuleer population, but politics are influenced by money and capsuleers have lots of it, and I would think SOME capsuleers would have notoriety planetside that would make people listen to what they say about who should be elected.
