QM Election

[seaweasel]

Didn't see a thread for the upcoming QM election, so I thought I should start one. Go on, run for stuff, etc.

When's the Heckling Meeting next week? I'm considering running again but I missed the Heckling Meeting last year and wanted to check if I'd be free for this one.

Stand up!

Sit down!

Resign!

Position vacant ftw!

[Swordfish]

I'm reckoning a turn out of about 250-300.

I'm reckoning a turn out of about 250-300.

I suspect slightly higher... Around 700 - 800 (perhaps more) I think thats around the general average? Or are students even more apathetic then they were when I was at Glasgow?

[Swordfish]

No chance mate. One of the highest turnouts I can remember was about 600 (10% of the membership) and that was the general election with 14 people running for 7 ord board spaces and Will whatsisface running for president against Laura Kane and JSD.

The november by-election has no chance whatsoever of attracting that kind of numbers. 300 was me being optimistic.

[gill turnbull]

there was a thread about the election, but it was mostly a discussion over the use of board skills on your cv, heh.

the heckling meeting is next wednesday. if you want to run you need to pick up a nomination pack today and get it back by tomorrow afternoon.

[MichaelSCollins]

Well I'm not running. I don't really see the point anymore.

Sorry Shim and Ali and co.

Too busy being Io Sec.

[endless psych]

I'm not running anymore...

And I know how desperate you all are for me to save you from your current FSM's Joking of course

[fsapsford]

I'm not running....

Stupidly doing the postgrad at the same Uni so can't stand for FSM (Board breathes sigh of relief )

[nicol]

I'm not running - being an FSM while living in another city wouldn't make a whole lot of sense. And anyway, I made it this far without joining, I must be strong!

[djtoast]

I'm not running.

I got elected last year as FSM but that was partly for strategic reasons; I think I'm currently more valuable in the booth than the boardroom and I can't do both.

Not sure who to vote for though!

[dil_em_ma]

Any chance we could get a list up here of all the people running?

[ally.h]

yeah, that would be helpful...

give us their myspace addresses as well so we can judge them!

al.

[Hammer]

I'm not running.

I've resigned. I will not be pushed, filed, stamped, indexed, briefed, debriefed or numbered. My life is my own. I resign.

But just remember, everybody votes for a dictator.

[dil_em_ma]

Hehe

Watching through the window late at night was borderline acceptable. Leaving "you need to buy more eggs" pinned to the fridge door? Creepy, but sort of cute. This abuse of the reputation system is a step too far, though.

Hammer's lawyers strongly suggest that you flaunt yourself around the forum a little before showing your face back here. We wouldn't like to disagree. They're rippling with what could be muscle.

Is that quote what i think it is?
