These so-called candidates that have so verily lowered themselves to insulting each other are demonstrating nothing but a tendency to argue over superiority! This is not something we need in the forums! Arguing for the shear sake of arguing should be frowned upon! The act shown here is just that... an act! Do not let great actors fool you into believing the lies they are attempting to cloud your vision for the future with!

I believe that best friends are like a swift kick in the rump! At some point in time, everybody needs one to get going! Vote Plystire!

I have no doubt in my mind that my fellow candidates will attempt to slur my statements and turn them against me or frame me with obviously fake accusations as they have demonstrated already! Well, I say, "Go for it!" Prove my point!

Ah, a pre-emptive strike. See, if I try to shoot down your statements with ridicule and lies, I'll be made the bad guy. But I know something about you that no-one else knows. Yep, I saw you snort that coke in the nightclub! That's right ppl, Plystire is a crackhead.

Ok Speech time!
Hello my fellow TGCers, my friends. We have seen dark days in the past.. But today is the day we can carry a torch through the darkness that consumes our days, or will you dwell further into the never ending darkness! No. We shall light our path out of all this nonsense, forget about the past and think about NOW! We go onto a forum to make friends not enemies.. If stick with me, I shall light, you out of the deleterious darkness.. Or shall you make me walk alone.

Vote For Andrew Hunt(Deathead) for President.

Thank you. You may have a cookie.



I think I have said everything I need to say. Everyone else is simply making empty promises to try and persuade you to vote for them. Don't fall for it!

Vote Plystire for honesty, sincerety, and a better TGC for everyone!

If I am elected, I will instate a "Noob Boot Camp" to help train newbies BEFORE they begin posting, which will cut back on silly threads and help to bring more fruitful conversations to the surface!

If you ban bad grammar, you have to ban noobs. They're mostly the people with the bad grammar.

I hereby announce my candidacy for the Presidency of the TGC forums!
If elected, my first act will be to kill the lot of you, and burn your homes to cinders! Following that, I will rebuild your homes,
and replace all of you with robots that will only post constructively and always follow the AUP.
I will then lower taxes and increase Medicare.
I am an excellent person to lead these forums because I never give up on the issues.

If the good lord had intended us to go outside or have a social life, he wouldn't have invented the internet.

Vote for me and I'll get rid of Benjamin and Grandma.

Vote for me and Rami will do anything we tell him.

A Vote for Seppuku is a vote for fascism.

[I wonder, what's the point here? Are we really voting someone to do something? Surely you can just do something in the forums without being voted some silly title. )

Seppuku, I know you have this control-tic and that you'd like me to be your puppet, but - no.

Or actually, maybe I should just tag along until you win, then go
on a rampage of murder, rape and destruction - and then blame you.

Just because I can, y'know?

Fine, by then I'd be ruler of the world and have control of everyone but you, so you and I will be the only free minds. We could rule the world together - pick a few countries if you may...

Oh and we'll include Grandma, after all, he is in my alliance and an asset.


For this to happen, I have to have taken over these forums first and eliminate the only person that can stop us...Jeku - his moderation powers will one day effect more than just the forum (imagine, if he could delete us in real life)

Agreed, Seppuku. But then, why in God's name are we starting taking over the world from this forum?

Also, I'd like to propose Darth Kiwi in our schemes. I heard he has the blueprint to a extremely advanced AI that grows by absorbing peoples' brains. Of course, we'll have Grandma teach the AI a lesson or 100 in obedience to us, and prohibit modifications to the program by itself or without four passwords.

Wow, seven pages... is it too late to throw my underwear into the race? If Jimmy and Grandma are running, you're going to a sensible counterweight against their madness.

It's a known fact that Jimmy dislikes babies, and Grandma drinks Canada Dry! And both of these candidates have had affairs with Heather Mills and Madonna, and both are closet Uwe Boll fans. We can't have this sort of behavior on TGC.

JoelJ pals around with domestic terrorists, and by that, I mean he pals around with Zues and Retro Gamer.

All of the other candidates are planning on raising your taxes... and the TGC forums are free!

So you only really have one choice come election day. That's right. Matt Rock for TGC President.
