New Speaker Election Thread

[Deep Dixieland Senator, Muad'dib (OSR MSR)]

For the purpose of having an actual vote, I nominate myself for Speaker. Will second pref YE. I am happy to actually serve in the role if elected.

I nominate Poirot.

Running for Speaker.

I’ll be running for speaker.

Let's make this fun. I'll run too.

I'm running for Speaker too. We want LT! You know you want me!

All I'm Seeing is this

[Terry the Fat Shark]

I am proud to announce that after careful consideration and thinking about it for a long time and really thinking about this carefully while considering it strongly I have come to announce that














I'm not running for speaker

[S019]

We Want a Clown Car Speaker Election!

[YE]

Could you even become speaker without serving in the House? I can’t recall now lol.

[Poirot]

I'm not declaring. I am trying to find how the the Speaker vote works (like does it take someone to second) in the House rules and can't find it. I haven't found the bathroom yet, still getting familiar with the place. If I lead it would be like following the blind man.

running for speaker.

[RC (a la Frémont)]

Not running but I'd like to request someone else do, not that you've been the worst speaker, but you've been very on and off, I get it, you have stuff to do, but when votes have been open for days longer than they should be, there's a problem.

that or actually appoint a Deputy Speaker who can do stuff when you aren't able to.

I thought Razze was Deputy? I have been sending messages to him as if he was

[YE]

By default, Dean=Deputy when none is assigned. Weren’t you the one who pushed for that to be added after Nev made 93 posts while doing nothing on the forum back in 2016 while Speaker of the House? (At least I never did that)

[YE]

As for my activity, I should be a bit more active going forward outside of the first two weeks of December. I got burnt out in late September/early October (I was basically snapping at people and overall not being as mellow as I normally am in private) and then moderation of the forum outright basically has been a higher priority the past 2 weeks due to certain circumstances though that may have passed.

I’ll actually get back to formally using Deputies like I said I would back at the start in July.

I pushed for the creation of the deputies themselves to exist yes.
