Choose wisely! Those who are running, feel free to promote yourself on this thread (bio, previous experience...whatever). This poll and staff discussion will help decide the winner!

This brings back memories of Eligoh's sig being changed into a campaign poster for Enoc...
EDIT: That's right, it was Eclipse...E-people...so blurry... :D
-
Yeah I remember that.
Did he keep his picture of Hitler in his "campaign poster" sig ? It's never good for a candidate to be associated to Hitler in any way, shape or form :)
-
wasn't that eclipse?? ... just wondering. I feel Enoc has the capabilities, even though he hasn't been here very long since he had left... but maybe that's because we're both latin :P j/k
If i recall you were a previous captain before you took your leave so...
anyways GL enoc and let's hope life doesn't get too complicated again if you get captain.
Edit - isn't that ship Role play oriented?? It's a good point to start on Semi....
-
Perhaps the candidates should state some reasons why they should be the captain of Carpe Diem.
I for one would like to know why they desire and are qualified to be captain since I will be directly impacted by the winner.
Just a suggestion.
-
Dang thats hard.... but we all know who the winner is gonna be....I think, wait...yeah I know.....I think.....
"Shortstack to Papa Moose, end feed"
"Roger".................................
-
Thanks for the support Arch. Yeah, I was the first captain of the Evigilos. I have previous experience withing the clan, and I think those that have been under my command would vouch for my leadership abilities. My only handicap is game experience, but I will change that very soon. I hope to have all of your support in this election, and wish my opponents good luck.

Now is this going to be like an electoral vote based on hovercraft population / 2? :D
Libertas - 6 electoral votes
Veritas - 5 electoral votes
Evigilos - 6 electoral votes
Decerto - 3 electoral votes
Carpe Diem - 1 electoral vote
Asperitas - 5 electoral votes

I want to know how is the 20% negitive. And WTH the Veritas only gets 5 EV. I demand no less then 20.

I think our community is small enough to work as a direct democracy. Plus, I'm catching up in the polls. Keep the support coming people, and I won't let you down.
-
I can't wait for the swimsuit competition.
Grim should win that without a problem.
:D
-
(OOC: It appears that soccer practice may have left me behind a little in the campaign here...I have to apologize for not speaking up earlier but was stuck in a project I couldn't get away from.)
I feel very strongly that I would be invaluable as a captain because of my desire for strong community. The Furious Angels have gone through quite a few changes as of late. Some more drastic that others, that have led to significant division amongst it members. I have been a member of this faction for some time now and because of this I have had the chance to see these changes take place, to see members leave with little to no warning. Seeing our numbers cut by more than half overnight. A change that was unexpected, but understandable & necessary nonetheless. It is probably more accurate to say that I've witnessed the Furious Angels 'grow' through these changes.
The Hovercrafts are representative of that community on a smaller scale. Like the limbs of a powerful body it is required all of its parts to be healthy to perform to it's greatest potential. My duty as captain would be to ensure the health, mentally, socially, & otherwise, of my crew. Its health as a crew & as a viable part of this faction. It's numbers now are minimal, but in time they will grow.
As a bluepill my role in society was supervisory over more than 30 people. A job I took seriously until I learned the truth. That part of my life is over now because I learned of a new battle that wages on. A battle that is said to be over but that you & I both know continues in the minds of those freed & the bitterness of those forced to free them. The war continues silently. I am confident that I will perform to the highest possible standard.
The odds appear stacked well against me but know where I stand. If I am not to be captain then it is simply not my time. The other candidates are worthy competion for me within the faction and it is a honor to serve with them for the glory of Zion.
To those whe have already cast their support for me, I thank you. To those who have not yet voiced your opinion I urge you to do so. There is no greater crime against oneself, I feel, than a voice that goes unheard.
-
Just to let you know Kairos, that reduction in members was the inactive list going into effect.
-
And I am aware of that, but some of our more recent cuts were members that were active internally but whose only shortcomings appeared to be nothing short of failure to state which hovercraft they wished to be assigned to.
I'm not critcising leadership decisions. I even stated it was understandable & necessary, just unexpected.

## RELAY Initialized
Kosila is an active level 50 member and a master of Force Multiplier, Network Attacker, and Ballista. On occasion, he also works with his programmer tree. Kosila is on Teamspeak almost everyday and dedicates at least 30 hours a week to the Matrix Online and the Furious Angels faction.
When not in game, he is a first year student at the University of Toronto studying Computer Science: Information Systems with a 3.9 average (I'm petitioning a remark on one of my assignments: P damn it I'll get my 4.0). He is hired part time as an Information Systems Analyst for an USA based company named Cordless Network Services, Inc, which owns the subdivision www.framedisplays.com, www.opticwebs.com, and www.sourcewebs.com. In his spare time, he volunteers as a FIRST Robotics mentor at his local high school. He actually knows how to slow down time to fit all that in his schedule. Anyway, he has the leadership skills Carpe Diem needs and is proud to be a Furious Angel.
Vote Kosila, and all your wildest dreams will come true!

So let me get this straight. If I vote for you I can get a pony ?
:D
-
I dont want Grim to win...she will be one step closer to enslaving us all, just think today Captain of the a Hovercraft for Matrix online Beta, tomorrow THE WORLD!!!
-
LMFAO!
-
Im warning you guys, when were in chains I wont feel bad cuz I voted for Chastity Bono
-
What are we going to do today brain?
Today pinky, we shall do what we always try to do.
What's that brain.
We shall TAKE OVER THE WORLD!
Everyone knows that cats are our secret masters anyway, I say make it public!
-
I still only see less than half our members have voted. That makes it look like there really is no interest in what happens around here. I have to encourage you again to read this thread and cast your vote. Voice yourselves. This could be a landslide but with the members remaining, not including those who joined us yesterday, there is still a chance for this to be close or even more decisive.
-
I want to know how is the 20% negitive. And WTH the Veritas only gets 5 EV. I demand no less then 20.
You want twenty? Sure, you can have twenty, as soon as the Evigilos gets 30! We shall not be ignored! Fight the power! :D
-
So let me get this straight. If I vote for you I can get a pony ?
Yes, you will get a flying pony if you want! :P
-
well since grim's a girl and tbone's g/f so u guys are shit out of luck....she automatically wins...
-
I concur.
-
if i get captainship solely because i'm a girl and because i'm tbone's girl, i resign :(
ah, feminism strikes again ... *sigh*
please don't vote for me just because i'm a girl or just because you're a fraid something bad will happen to you if you don't. i would rather lose because i'm an unfit leader than win because i'm a girl :(
-
Huh? I'm actually in charge of the Anti-GrimKitten campaign!
Keep women where they belong - in the kitchen! :P
-
I figured Tbone would want Grimkitten in his own ship so he can boss her around! Opposite what Trinity does to Neo sans Matrix 1.
I voted for Enoc cause his name is kinda like Educ which was my name for DAoC. Okay not really but it is kinda close...
-
Hell, The Decerto, representing the rest of the world that isn't America, should get the same amount of votes as all the other ships pooled together. And yes, keep the women where they belong.
-
What ? Grim is a girl ? Well I'll be damned.
The words "Dull face, nice boobs" in her avatar should have been a hint. :D
That remark stayed on your mind hey ? You know Grim I don't think you have a dull face ;)
-
In light of the new standings, I will make new promises if I'm elected:
1. I will give all pigs wings to fly.
2. I will walk through fiery pits while balancing 11 plates on my head.
3. I will give each member hovering abilities like that David Blaine guy.
4. I will end world hunger.
5. I will appear on Survivor and win a million dollars and share the money with the faction.
So you see, you must vote for me! Vote Kosila!
-
If you add "I will remove Ashley and Jessica Simpson from the gene pool" to your list and still give me my pony, you'll get my vote.
:D
-

Done and done! :)
-
I would have figured you would have had world peace on there too. but i guess that would be too much now wouldn't it.
-
naw, that question doesn't come until the formal gown judging. give the boy a chance, will ya?
btw core, yes, i found that comment quite amusing, and our old friend sevker said "that would make and interesting avatar" so there ya go ...
oops, i think my pork roast is burning! back to the kitchen i go! ;)
-
Mmmmmm.... Pork Roast.... :2d
-
Hey Grim.
You should bring some of that pork roast tonight.
Guys are always hungry :)
-
Mmmmm...boobs...
And...pork roast...uhhhh.
I've seen many more pics of Grim. Perhaps a better phrase would be "Hot face...and boobs to match!"
-
Here's a new text for your avatar Grim: "Hot face, boobs to match and captain of the Carpe Diem".
:D
-
I think Tbone just gave examples of the two things you need to control any normal man. A pity we are so weak as to fall for pork roast. These are dark times. I mean, it use to be nothing less than half a cow to appease us. See what evolution does to us!
-
That's why we have wisdow teeth.
In prehistoric times we used to tear the flesh from mammoths with our teeth. Nowadays, we have tenderized meat and utensils to make bite-sized pieces.
Because we don't use our mouths as intensely now as we did in prehistoric times, they became smaller over time. Their size decreased to a point where, for many people, wisdow teeth, for which there used to be a lot of space, don't have room to grow correctly anymore.
So in prehistoric times, they were just teeth. Now they are wisdom teeth and don't grow correctly.
At this rate, in a billion years, we'll just have one teeth and eat through a straw :)
-
Think more like a million me thinks. I mean, we have only been around for a little while, in the wide spectrum of our worlds history, and so we have evolved pretty bloody fast.

The poll is now closed! Congrats to GrimKitten!
