So your incentive to run for positions and win them will be imaginary money in an imaginary market. Give me real money, then we'll talk. ;) :P
Imaginary money for imaginary positions, sounds good to me :P

That's officially the first time I've ever heard of any candidate winning any election with a tied vote, as opposed to a majority.

But, congratulations to Hadi, I guess? Managing to win the seat with half the people against you is an impressive feat.
You know, if you had actually run for something and attempted to have contributed something to Equinox other than whining, I would probably take this post seriously.

Does that mean it's actually a legitimate point, and your personal bias against Buck is what excludes it from being considered one?

Tsk.

Usually you take complaints by the merits of the point being made and not personal bullshit.

He's not saying that he's ignoring the point because he has something against Buck, he's saying that Buck's statement has no credibility because Buck did not try to run or contribute.

Maybe people don't want to start something that might get changed in 3 days time . . . what with all the changing of power . . .

Well I think there are certainly more mature ways to express disappointment than blatant sarcasm.

Nobody else wanted the position. He has 50% of the region's support against Abstain. That's good enough for me. Next time I will separate the abstain and no confidence options.
