Hello citizens of 10000 Islands!
Some of you may have heard of me before and some of you may even have visited my tomb (the rest of you should show some respect for your elders). For those of you that don’t know me, I joined this august region at the end of 2012 and was active for several years. I served as a TITO Tactical Officer from April of 2014 to January of 2015 and again from February of 2016 to May of 2016, as a Senator for the first half of 2016, and as Senior Senator for the last two months of my Senatorial term. More importantly, I won a game of Werewolf or two (don’t ask me what my win percentage was), spammed in Taco Island, and made lots of friends here. I CTE’d in the fall of 2016, finished my bachelors, and now I've been back for almost a month.
I’m delighted to see the Islands are still flourishing and I’d love to do my part to help our community continue to grow!
Why should I vote for you?
First, did I mention that my bachelors was in philosophy? There’s many things you can imply from that (I am employed, thank you very much), but the important one here is that I spent a great deal of time arguing with people, listening to arguments between people, and reading arguments between people. I’ve seen good debates, bad debates, and boring debates, and I can help ensure our debates are the good kind, with varied topics, actual interest, and good prompting questions if things slow down. I’d like to look at holding occasional debates on the Discord server and to figure out a good way to get the gameside nations involved.
That’s cool but you have to vote in the Co9 too, right?
So I’m told. I bring a very varied perspective to the Council. On one hand I’m an old timer with old ideas, but on the other hand I’ve been away from the Islands for a few years and bring a fresh perspective. I’d like to help make sure the Islands makes the changes it needs to grow and adapt without compromising what makes us great or rushing into anything prematurely. I can promise that I will take every vote and every discussion very seriously and carefully consider the perspectives of my fellow Councilmembers.
Please feel free to ask some questions here and -- who knows? -- maybe even start a bit of a debate.
