For those topics one could describe as the forum equivalent of a twinkie. Word games, forum contests and giveaways are all the rage here.

BTW, Light, why *are* elections only open for one day? That seems kinda short.

But you didn't really give much notice for it. Usually people know about elections for a while before they happen. I'm not talking about a year or anything but a week maybe. And seeing as this is a virtual world, people may have other things to do and won't even know about this until it's over.

I agree with you wholeheartedly. Believe me, I tried talking him into giving more time for campaigning and other stuff to happen.

I would have liked to have a vote for Tanner set and be able to promote him for a while. Plus by my calculations the poll will only be open for 10 hours.

Yeah, I'm in agreement on the election being a little soon and a little short. Most members don't get on every day. I know that I haven't had time to talk to Tanner at all about his campaign, and I can't imagine that he's exactly had the time since he's running three werewolf games at the same time. A little more time would have been nice for those of us that do other things :)

I also agree with the statement that it was short. Not that the election is short, but that the campaign period was. It still was long enough for both candidates to have an impact and to promote themselves though.
I think the difference is that the campaign period was longer last time, so everything seems much shorter in comparison, though perhaps it is by some.
