I remind you, 17, the electorate is not you guys.

Here's a smaller version showing the backgrounds behind the text:



It's the United States Flag on top, with the Croatian Flag on bottom.

Clever Xeroc, very clever. And I actually mean it for a change :wink:

Yes, I know, no witty comments, no mudslinging, no insults at the opposition...I must be slipping :wink:

[Zeke]

That's really, really cool.

I agree.

Damn. :wink:

Must...think...of...comeback...

[Opium]

Look - New Valium have issued the threats - I now issue one more - That if you DONT vote for me, I'll fill Enterprise with:
1) squitty child prodigy types (eg Wesley Crusher, Adric etc)
2) Mary-Sues.
And then replace the sets with ones that are gothic, and dark, made of MDF and day-glo pink nylon drapes, and have NO computer banks, and turn the entire load of main characters (excluding the child prodigies, mary-sues etc) into blathering idiots who will follow the crackpot suggestions of the child prodigies, mary-sues, etc.

So, in other words, you will have a crew-show? (a show put on by the crew at the after-party of the play where the crew puts on the costumes, makes everything outrageoiusy funny, and uses bad in-jokes)

Sounds like fun for theatre geeks like me. However, your threat means nothing to me, as I promise this:

One episode of Trek a season will be a funny, satirical, sarcastic episode full of wacky things to lighten the mood!

Oh, so the new fad is posters? Well, I'll just have to get myself a poster then, won't I?

BUH poster #1[/img]

[Zeke]

That didn't take long. Nicely done; I like the fireworks.

...I guess so. *facepalm*

(Actually, the top part of the crest did throw me for a loop when I first looked at it--"Ooh, pretty colors!"--but the Big Red Checks were a dead giveaway. Big Red Checks are a long-running amusement of mine, yes. Don't ask. You don't want to know.)



And Zeke--pardon me, I am quite WOLS when it comes to these things and I am completely lost. So, if it is as you say and we are not the electorate... then who the heck are they all campaigning TO? :?:

[Zeke]

(ominous voice)

NOBODY KNOWS.

But when we find out, there will be hell to pay.

Wait a minute. Beef?

[Alexia]

Thats a good point actually... :roll:

But, who cares! The more supporters the better :mrgreen:

[Sa'ar Chasm]

*ahem*

I recognised the checks as well, but the heradlic twiddly bits on top threw me. Once the checks fell into place, I could see the red white and blue Slavic stripes.

The US flag threw me, oddly enough. My first thought was Austria, of all things.

[Chancellor Valium]

New Valium is also offering to its supporters:
- Excrutiatingly well paid multiple guest appearances (if wanted)
- Positions on the Board of Directors of Paramount
- Positions on the Council of Trek - a selection of worthy people who get to make important decisions about ST. (your worthiness is determined by your support for me.....)
- The chance to kill Wesley Crusher on tape
- The chance to kill android doubles of Wesley Crusher any time you want - comes with over 300 gallons of extra (uber-realisic) fake blood, and an armoury/torture chamber of diabolical weapons to use against them.
- A shiny Starfleet Command Dress Uniform
- A shiny sticker
- A tickle-me-Picard ()
- carbon-copies of Spock's eyebrows and ears
These are but a few advantages! So vote New Valium today!

Oh my! I can't work out if that's a good or a bad thing :wink:

[NAHTMMM]

Super-duper posters, everyone! :mrgreen:

u guys.

LALALALA, CAN'T HEAR YOU, LALALAAALALAA...

[Asky]

Wow. Another bunch of campaign posters from all the people who are so much more graphically talented than I am.

[Alexia]

Don't worry, they're better than me to :wink: It's the thought that counts.

I hope :wink:

[Opium]

Thanks


Now, onto campaigning:
-Do you REALLY want Alexia to be Exec, even though she lacks a poster?

New Valium is also offering to its supporters:

Does everyone realize what chaotic messes these episodes would be? If all Valium's supporters were able to do what is posted above, the episodes would be plotless, lifeless, just random scenes! And if you want those, watch MXC!

Now, I offer solid plots, and all the good stuff too. Remember that! Opium: Offers solid plots, and all the good stuff too!

Does anyone else notice some irony here? :P

HEY! I resent that! I had a poster PAGES before you did, and it's not half bad considering I have only been using PS for a couple of weeks AND it has a quite cool slogan I thought up which is now in my sig.

I had a poster before you were even RUNNING :wink:

So,

-Do you REALLY want Opium to be Exec, even though she lacks information and clearly hasn't been keeping up with the election from the very beginning? :twisted:

[Alexia]

For anyone who doesn't want to read the topic back to find my poster, here is is again.

I might do a follow up poster later, a sort of mid-campaign one. I'd do it now but I'm at work :wink:
