Offical ATS Council Election Results

i see the forum but i cant post in it

*screams*

Congratulations to all the new dictators.....er.....council members.........

I look forward to seeing how this plays out.........

Now for my list of demands....as a participating member I believe you answer to me...........who wants to be first?

Now For The Hard Part

The members of ATS have selected councilors to represent them, or, more correctly, us.

After all the ticker tape is swept away, all that matters is if we succeed at that.

Congratulations and condolences to the new councilors.

This promises to be a tough job, and I “council” patience for both members and councilors alike as we figure out just what the bloody hell we can do to help ATS -- and how not to make things worse with our best of intentions.

To those not elected, I urge you to remember that this was not a vote for “who's best” or even “who's qualified”. This was not a referendum on anyone's worth as a member or a person.

A plurality of our fellow members have chosen us for this job, and that's all this means.

Now it's up to those of us who were chosen for the Council to prove -- or disprove -- the wisdom of these choices.

Here's hoping we don't royally blow it.

Who Says We Can't Have Some Fun With This?

That said, I can now unveil my deviously double-edged and thematic avatar:



Tasteless and perhaps a bit disturbing, I know, but the messages it contains are for all of us (including me).

Remember what happens when we don't hold representatives to account.

Remember that the purpose of every councilor is to serve our fellow members.

If we start getting grand ideas and caught up with the trappings of office, we will fail our fellow members, as well as ourselves.

Don't fall prey to the Dark Side of ATS politics.





P.S. The “Empire” logo is my adopted unofficial logo for DISC. I like multiple entendres.

Congratulations to all who have been elected! And a big fat thanx to all who cast your vote for me. I look forward to representing you ALL at Politix@ATS.

Let the experiment begin

Down with the People! Up with the Man!


Oh wait, do I have that backwards?

I think there was a chad-counting error......thingy???

O no! I hope we don't have any chad problems. Especially those pregnant chads. Those are the worst.

No pregnant chads this time, we managed to put them all on birth control before the elections started

congratulations to all

Congrats to everyone!!

I like seeing these tight races

Now, if you excuse me, I'm going to go cry in my corner....

O no! I hope we don't have any chad problems.

Nope, just 100% reliable Diebold machines...

To those elected...didn't SO say something about assistants??? Might want to keep some members (not staff) in mind...

Infinite, I can't see that forum either, so I imagine they're working on it....

Also, don't our elected ones get nice new shiny name monikers or something? *ducks*

Congrats to all! this will be very interesting to see. Now will this give the mods a little break? If so can they complain to the council members?

I echo those sentiments... congrats to all the newly elected members and a good job to all of the other candidates.

here you go Hellmutt

Oh my gosh -- I can't believe there are people who didn't know Hellmutt -- he is a great contributor to the board --but I guess on forums you don't go to all of the time.

Congratulations to everyone -- it was a hard choice when it was time to vote as everyone had so much to offer -- Hope you are able to enjoy your new posts and accomplish everything you are hoping to
