Spud of Doom for congress! (Wellington)

Day 1,098, 19:38 • Published in New Zealand New Zealand • by Spud of Doom

I'm not one for writing long articles here, so I'm going to keep this one brief, compared to the usual wall of text accompanying a congress candidature. I am running for congress on the 25th of November 2010 under the Super Sweet 16 Party.
Here's why Spud of Doom is a good candidate for you to vote for in Wellington this month:

- I'm easy to talk to, and I make my positions clear to others when asked. I am polite and calm, and accept questioning and discussion of any political statement or view I express.

- I've played this game for a very long time (over 2 years) and decided I would stay out of politics until my home nation New Zealand was added. This means I care about the country now, and will do my best to see it grow.

- I've spent a long time as a soldier in the eUK SAS, so I know how armies are structured and won't be one of those congress members who tries to take control of the army's operation. I also won't encourage messing around with foreign relations, wars and alliances without discussing it thoroughly, since I know how much of a headache this can cause.

- I'm active in-game, and spend a lot of time lurking in IRC. You can rely on me to respond to any in-game PMs sent that ask a question, or respond to queries on IRC. This will usually take no longer than 24 hours.

- I'm not an asshole. I know this seems trivial, but politics has a tendency to get awfully stupid, even in a game. I like to stay away from causing unnecessary trouble.

So, yeah. That's all I have to say for now. Make sure you log in on Thursday (More like Wednesday night if you're from NZ or Aus) and VOTE SPUD OF DOOM FOR CONGRESS.

Oh, and here's a few pictures to keep you entertaine😛
