I've just pinged some people so that this thread gets some attention in the currently dead forums. Perhaps, the elections can bring some life back into the forums.

Betrayal. You were my previous running mate.

The President

@That polish guy

So, am I your running mate?

@Joe Bartolozzi we can use a forum poll for voting. That way we wont have to sift through lots of posts and count votes individually.

Yes, we will do that, it is better than counting manually.

ok, i want to register

Stay Sweet!

Now, since a lot of people who originally signed up as contestants are inactive, I think I should redo this. Opinions? In case, we do redo candidate registration, then perhaps we will have to postpone to election by maybe a week.

I'm also thinking about scheduling this election from 3rd to 5th of November. Just to match the timing with US elections. And if the RP gets started, then we should have good amount of activity by that time and obviously will make a new post in this case to reach more people.
