I vote that whomever frolicks makes a rule that you can only write rules in emoji.

I find it ironic that you essentially enact the constitution by creating a loophole allowing you to prepend half a book to the existing ruleset.

We must work within the existing loophole-dependent system in order to further the interests of all parties peacefully.

Nice. A meme about a infamously unpopular monarch to argue in favor of monarchy.

What is the World coming to!

I see this acronym (yes, that’s right, I don’t say it like an initialism) and I just immediately think it stands for “No Leiras Party”.

Don’t worry, @Leira, I guess technically the party is allowed to have one.

Anybody who would like to be candidate for the DiVoP? If not, I fear I’ll have to think about a merger with another democratic party.

DiVoP sounds like a DVD norm which never succeeded

I demand satisfaction, good Sir!

How dare you beat me to the joke!

And I totally should have made that reference sooner… :point_right::point_left:

Easy!
I make a HHG dictionary, called “The Dictionary of HHG”.
I assume you are using this dictionary for your definitions.
In this dictionary, all words have the same meaning as in the Merriam-Webster dictionary, except “cannot” means “can”, as defined by the HHG dictionary.

Alright, it seems the candidates have spoken, and we have three nominees for frolicker. We can now start the general election.

This election has the format of Instant-runoff: that means that you do not just vote for a party, but (in this case, with three nominees) you give a second vote for a different party that you’d have voted for in the case that the first party were not joining the election.

To find the winning party, all 1st votes are counted, and the party with the least number of votes is eliminated. Those who voted for that party will now instead vote for their second choice.

In case of a tie between the winning parties, this election will have no result, and no frolicker will be selected.

Nominees

Since it wasn’t announced, couldn’t the poll last a little longer? I had a busy day today and almost risked not looking at the thread.

Summary

If possible I’d ask to extend it to another 12 hours. Not sure if polls can be changed after being posted though (at least for us human non-mods :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:).

Afraid to win, aren’t you?

Sadly it’s impossible. Opening a new poll risks the 5 current votes to become lost. I say we open this to a public poll:

  • The election should be restarted with more time
  • It should not.
