Greetings everyone!
This is the official election post for the 9th election!
If you’re not already aware of the elections system, click here for more information.
This election month (August, 2018) there are 8 MP seats open.
If you want to run for a position in Parliament, you will need to meet these prerequisites:
- You need to be on the server for at least 1 week;
- You need to be an active player;
- You must be active on the forums;
You have two options: You can run with a campaign thread or without one.
Option 1
Simply start off by posting your running status under this post using the format: “I, <username>, am seeking the position of Member of Parliament.” because you are choosing not to write up a campaign and post a thread you can have discussions and answer the voter’s questions on discord under #mp-election
Option 2
You can make a campaign thread! Creating a campaign thread is more helpful because it gives the voters an idea of who you are and what you would represent for them. To do option 2, just reply to this post with “I, <username>, am seeking the position of Member of Parliament and here is my campaign thread: <link to thread>."
The title of the thread should be as such:<Your Name’s> Election Post (August 2018)
Inside the thread a format can but does not have to be filled out:
- Your username
- Your age
- Your activity on the server
- When you joined
- Why do you think you are suited to be a Member of Parliament
- What kind of laws would you vote for/against
- Additional information you believe people should know
And like the first option you are free to discuss and answer questions on your campaign on discord under #mp-election
