|
|
Darth Duck: Hello, I am Darth Duck, award winning host of FBTBCNN and long time member of the FBTB community. As such it is my duty to moderated tonight's debate. Our debating candidates are: Scitvs, CommanderJake, ThePlasticJedi, joedward (and the Ficus), Junsier, DonSolo and copyright. There may be celebrity appearences through out the event. Let the madness begin.
By drawing lots our first question goes to CommanderJake: what is your policy on new members, or noobs?
CJ: My campaign is all about making every day a holiday. This means not getting up at 5am, not going to work, not worrying about finances and not staying up until midnight making fiddly propaganda on a computer. This also means jetting off to any destination you wish, on a plane which is perfectly suited to your needs and comforts, bathing in the n00b-free surroundings of paradise, surrounded by gorgeous hotties (NOT Canadian, I might add) and spending time however you wish. And when you get back, you can do it all over again, anytime, anywhere! With Jake in command, we will make FBTB a bright, sunny place full of bright, sunny Bothans. Vote for the community. Vote for Jake: The people's choice.
DD: Thank you for your non-answer answer.
CJ: I answer it you bloody...
DD: Quiet you. Next up ThePlasticJedi. Do you have anything going for you other than being Candian?
PJ: I am a superhero who bears the Maple Leaf, I will protect the forums from devistation. Being a Canadian, I know how to rule the forums with greatness. Let the forums' enemies feel the oppression of the Maple Leaf. ThePlasticJedi-The CanEh?dian Choice!
DD: I guess not. joedward, you formad an alliance with a potted plant (not a pot plant) why?
jo: The Ficus and I share a common goal – a stronger, more unified FBTB community, led by sane individuals. Together the we wish to bring an amazing year to FBTB. The Ficus and I are both upstanding members of this community with strong ties to many members. I bring many good things to the table – friendliness and humor, as well as a certain British charm and I am known to almost all members as a great contributor to this community. The Ficus promises stability, honesty, and good old down-to-Earth qualities. Ficus has never uttered an unkind word, does not pretend to be something it is not, and cares about the environment.
DD: 'kay then. Scitvs, wassup?
Sci: FBTB is a great place. Unfortunately it is harassed by spammer barbarians, and is plagued with misguided and uninformed newcomers. S.P.Q.R intends to defend the populace from spammers, and give the new guys a helping hand, and guidance in the right direction. FBTB shall not become from 'From Brick To Barbarians' on our watch. I shall stress integrity, honor, and discipline in all that my party does. For that, is the Roman way.
DD: copyright, do these pants make my hips look big?
cr: I am a 7 year member of FBTB and have been around the block a few times. I have seen the best and worst of FBTB, and I know how to make it better. Beyond promoting the continued zaniness of the forums, I have three serious goals I will work toward if I am chosen as mayor: First coordinate with site administrators to plan special activity threads for the BCS. Second, establish an FBTB News Corps, made up of members who will help find front page news for FBTB and then decide on what news is worthy to post. The leader of the News Corps will forward those news items to Ace/Ry/whoever. Third (and final), coordinate with members to pick a worthy multinational non-profit cause and organize an FBTB fund raiser so we at FBTB can make a difference. Copyright is your copyRIGHT choice for mayor!
DD: Wow, if you didn't want to answer you could've said so. DonSolo one word campaign summary. 1,2,3 go!
DS: Now, if I had to sum up my platform in one word, it would be fun. But thankfully, I can elaborate! We have all come to this forum for a few common interests: Star Wars and LEGO. But be honest: it's the community that kept you here. I think it's important that this community continues to thrive, that new members feel welcome, and that the veterans feel at home. That's why fun is the focus of our party - we want everyone, old or new, CanEh?dian or Rebel, to have a good time... and we're here to help out anywhere we can. A vote for the All Night Party is a vote for a fun and friendly FBTB for everyone.
DD: That was more than one word. Junsier, you claim to be a rebel, yet you're running for teh establishment, aren't you a hypocrite?
Jun: Are you tired of the same-old same-old? Do you want to live again? Were you born to live under the boot of oppression, or to run wild and free? Well, it is time to rise up, my friends! It is time to make a difference, time to be unique! Time to show the world, and especially all of FBTB forums, that you will not live anonymously, unnoticed and unappreciated! Because you are not meant to be anyone else, you were meant to be YOU! Join Junsier and the rest of the Rebel Party, and together, we will cry out our right for freedom! And if you don't plan on voting for us, well, we'll just terrorize you until you do...
DD: Terrorize, I like that in this day and age.
CJ: Can I ask a question?
DD: No, but if you write it down, I will ask it for you.
CJ: Okay. (Hands DD a piece of paper)
DD: ThePlasticJedi, isn't it true that William Shatner, the star of Star Trek, is Candian?
William Shatner: I can answer that: I. Am. Canadian.
CJ: How can you love Star Wars with him around?
PJ: But Patrick Stewart is British!
CJ: So is Alec Guiness!
PJ: Canada has Elisha Cuthbert!
Jun: The Rebels have Princess Liea, and her metal bikini.
CJ: Drats.
PJ: You got me there.
cr: I like Abe Lincoln.
Sci: In know this isn't a poular opinion, but Cleopatra was pretty hot.
DS: She was married to her brother!
cr: Hot, I mean, ew.
jo: Wow, just wow copyright.
cr: I take it back, it's wrong!
jo: You need help.
Sci: If elected I declare war on you two. Inter arma enim silent leges.
jo: Huh?
Sci: Learn some Latin, pvnk.
DD: Guys, guys, knock it off. Who would win in a fight, Abe Lincoln or Bigfoot?
jo: I'd say Paddy, but he's a lover, not a fighter. And Abe Lincoln is, in fact, Big Foot's brother. There would never be a real fight between them, rendering the question void. Sorry. (Paddy FTW!)
Sci: Honest Abe!
CJ: Collin. Because he's hairier than both.
Cello Collin: Oh come on, that's not fair, you know I lost my razor.
PJ: Big Foot, me and him grew up together up here in Canada and he is one tough cookie.
Jun: Although Abe was a unique individual, Big Foot is way more unique and different, so therefore, the Sasquash would definetly win this. He's not a man, not a bear, not an ape... he's different an unique, just like a real rebel... Oh! and Daz says that Big Foot is probably Canadian, and everyone knows Canadians are the strongest.
PJ: Hey, you stole my Candi(a/e)n schitck!
DS: Well, that all depends on the type of fight... if you're talking hand to hand, bare chest brawl; I think Big Foot would tear Abe apart. But if you're going to toss a knife in the mix then my money's on ol' Honest Abe - he's a wiry chap and Bigfoot'd be down before the bell rang. In fact, I wouldn't put "Honest" Abe past a dirty move or two... I mean, he's libel to bring the knife in either case - so that's who my money would be on. Lincoln ftw.
cr: Well, lets compare the two. Abe Lincoln: big, tall, and hairy. Bigfoot: big, tall, and hairier. Abe Lincoln, actually if you didn't know, was half sasquatch, and bigfoot was his daddy. Since bigfoot is more sasquatch than Abe, well he would probably win (because sasquatch pwn) but because Abe is his son, he would never fight him. Abe on the other hand, if he had a vendetta against dear ole dad, could just send the whole of th Union Army after him. I'd say Abe would win!
William Shatner: I would. Beat. Them both. You want to live like common people? You want to do whatever common people do? KHAAAAAAAAAN! I have tribbles on my head.
DD: You're not supposed to be here Mr. Shatner.
WS: I'll go. KHAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan
DD: Anyways. It seems that this is all we have time for, and the election starts tomorrow, at some point, and will run until next Saturday. More information will be available tomorrow. And with that. I'm Darth Duck, and now, a word from our sponsor.
Sponsor: I know the urge is tempting, but don't give in. You have to stregth to beat this. You can overcome. _________________ Sometimes I Quack Myself Up... |

Everyone knows hands down, Lincon would win against Bigfoot. Also, William Shatner supports TPJ, he totally comes before Alec Guiness, Leia and Cleopatra.  _________________

Damn straight we do. With deep, thoughtful answers like that, you can see why TPJ is leading in the latest polls. The Eh? Party is clearly not afraid to tackle the tough issues!

On a serious note, i particularly moved by what The Ficus had to say on the matter of hightened security here at FBTB...

Ficus: *rustles leaves* |
I think he swayed a lot of voters with that answer. _________________ "...the creation, of a Greened Army of the Republic."

Well, yeah. Alex was a 'donian, and her father was a Greek, who was a 'donian general... It's so convoluted...  _________________

Dear Juns,
Please do assimilate Rome to Græco-Macedon in such a negative manner again.

You guys do realize you're completely off topic and spamming, right? Even if I am associating Rome with Greco-Macecon-Sparta-Scitvs-Pararaetot-IlovesciTvs anything. _________________

But in essence we are debating in this post, so I still win. And you are not a Roman emporer. _________________
