VOTES BY PLAYER CHARACTERS CANNOT BE SUBMITTED BEFORE 2/13/15, AND ARE PMED DIRECTLY TO THE STORYTELLER HANDLE. IT IS A SECRET BALLOT. DO NOT TELEGRAPH YOUR VOTES OR THEY WILL BE INVALID.

The Student Body (the faceless NPC masses, vote on 2/20/15)

Final Nomination list -
Student Council (Vote for three): Blake Belladona, Kisara Rosenkreuz, Ryuko Matoi, Alessandro Dorian, Wes Fein, Rin Kurasawa, Malik Ishtar, Mello, Ryoga Kashmiro.
Treasurer: Millyn, Toph Beifong, Guy Manuel De Homem Christo.
Secretary: Margaret the Scylla, Lucifer Anghelscu, Champagne
President: (First place wins President, Second place wins Vice President) Satsuki Kiryuin, Seto Kaiba, Steve Sterling"


An announcement would play over the PA throughout the school, and all of the students would get notified by email and on their SmartDesks.

"The Nomination Phase is over. The following Students have received enough nominations to qualify for one or more positions on the Student Council and should file with the Student Council Office to accept the candidacy for the position of their choice that they qualified for. A few of the following have qualified for more than one office so check your notifications or refer to the list in the office for details: Alessandro Dorian, Blake Belladonna, Champagne, Guy Manuel De Homem Christo, Jennifer Avila, Kisara Rosenkreuz, Lucifer Anghelscu, Margaret the Scylla, Marik Ishtar, Mello, Millyn, Qiang Hu, Rin Kurasawa, Ryoga Kashimiro, Ryuko Matoi, Satsuki Kiryuin, Seto Kaiba, Steve Sterling, Toph Beifong, Wes Fein."

Once more the PA squealed to life, and broadcast throughout the school and updated via email and SmartDesk to all students involved as well.

"Nominations for Council Accepted: Blake Belladona, Kisara Rosenkreuz, Ryuko Matoi, Alessandro Dorian, Wes Fein, Rin Kurasawa, Marik Ishtar. Still Pending: Jennifer Avila, Mello, Ryoga Kamishiro. Pending Nominations have 48 hours to respond or be automatically Accepted."

"Nominations for Treasurer Accepted: Millyn, Toph Beifong, Guy Manuel De Homem Christo."

"Nominations for Secretary Accepted: Margaret the Scylla, Lucifer, Champagne"

"Nominations for President Accepted: Satsuki Kiryuin, Seto Kaiba, Steve Sterling"


Posts:

President/Vice President: Just like in early USA, the second place vote getter for President is the VP. In matters of the Student Council when voting is required, The President can put things up to a vote but does not vote except in case of a 3/3 tie among the VP, Secretary, Treasurer and Council Members.

Secretary: Yeah, its a silly job when everything is recorded anyway, but someone has to organize those recordings and play back the relevant parts at the meetings.

Treasurer: Handling the money that comes in from fundraisers to do special school events like field trips to the Moon and suchlike.

Council Member: Three of these, main responsibility is to keep in touch with what the student body wants and report this to the council and propose activities and other administration.

EDIT: Every PC can propose 4 Nominees: President/VP, Secretary, Treasurer, Council Member. Nominations close When I have enough to run an election.

Top three nominees for President/VP, Secretary, and Treasurer will be the candidates. Top 9 nominees (if that many different are proposed, minimum 6) will be nominated for the Three Council Member Seats.

OK GO! FIGHTO!

Nominations so far: Top 3 students who accept their nominations for the first three, and top six it looks like for Student Council will be the candidates. Tick Tock. I want to close this ASAP

For President, Alessandro*, Satsuki Kiryuin*****, Qiang Hu**, Seto Kaiba******, Ryuko**, Lucifer**, Kisara*, Steve Sterling**, Guy Manuel De Homem Christo*, Scarlette Rider

Secretary: Seto Kaiba****, Margaret**, Lala*, Tarantula*, Marik Ishtar*, Lucifer**, Satsuki***, Steve Sterling**, Guy Manuel De Homem Christo*, Alessandro*, Libra*, Ryuko*, Champagne****, Scarlette Rider*, Near*

Treasurer: Seto Kaiba****, Guy Manuel De Homem Christo**, Steve Sterling**, Ryuko*, Toph***, Millyn*****, Rin Kurasawa*

Council: Kisara***, Marik***, Blake******, Wes**, Toph*, Alessandro*, Mello*, Ryuko*, Jennifer*, Rin Kurasawa*, Ryoga*

Anyone who got even a single nomination for Council may run for Council. Anyone who got two or more nominations may run for President, Treasurer or Secretary.

PM the Storyteller handle to accept your nominations ASAP.

"Consider it a Bei Fong buy out for the Treasurer position. I know all about how to handle this, I learned it from Dad. I usually just don't care. And won't that be fun? Let the blind girl handle the money." She grinned.

"But seriously I can do it."

President/Vice President: "I'm not so familiar with everyone as it is, but I would recommend Seto for president. He has the necessary experience to pull it off and moreover, is someone I know personally who'd take it seriously."

Secretary: "Champagne, obviously. She seems very responsible and isn't that the main thing you need for a secretary? Especially with everything they mention in those meetings."

Treasurer: "Millyn of course! I've faith she has the know how to do so and whats more, the drive. That counts for a lot."

Council Member: "Ryuko-chan from what I hear is hot-headed, but she has a good heart for the minorities. Someone like her on the council would be a wonderful voice for them."

President/Vice President: "Ha! For president, I think I'll nominate...Matoi Ryuko! She doesn't seem the type to seek power. So why not? Can't be worse than some other choices, right? Hahahaha!"

Secretary: "That creepy red-riding hood that walks around. Lucifers cousin or something...Hey, shes quiet, got GREAT handwriting...And looks like she has the patience of a turtle, what more do you want?"

Treasurer: "Millyn! Vote Millyn! I'm short on cash as it is." (T_T)

Council Member: "Heh, this is a no-brainer...Go for Kisara! You will literally, find NO ONE who is going to say a bad word about her. Even the Bad Boys like her! You know shes gonna listen to whatever problems you got and bring them up. Eh?"

President/Vice President: "President?" You're joking, right? Fine...But I'll throw in my vote for the Vice President. I nominate myself. Let whoever wants to be the top dog do their thing, I'll take the spot where I can watch and wait for opportunities. Though if I'm needed, I suppose I'll be showing the power of Kaiba Corp."

Secretary: "Steve Sterling. Moving on."

Treasurer: "Eh. Give it to the dragon."

Council Member: "Kisara." I'll have someone to talk to at least."

President: "I see...Well, hmmm....Going from those I have met and spoken to thus far, I would have to say that for President, it would have to be someone who exemplifies the school as it is. In that regard, I choose Steve Sterling. He may not be clever, but thats what advisors are for."

Secretary: "I would be willing to take this service role. Someone should. Barring that, I nominate Champagne."

Treasurer: "Miss Millyn. I've enough experience with dragons to know it'll be in good hands."

Council Member: "Jennifer Avila."

"Must everything be about popularity here? Very well. For President, I may as well give Satsuki some intellectual competition in her campaign, so I will nominate Seto Kaiba. For Secretary, Champagne. She memorized the Galactic Treaty. That's over a thousand pages long. The entire thing. For Treasurer, I think I shall amuse myself by nominating Guy Manuel De Homem Christo. And for student Council, Alessandro. He needs more social interaction."

"I guess, for President, I'd pick Lucifer, cause man, that guy is really smooth. For Treasurer, I guess that Dragon girl was okay, even if she isn't French. Secretary, that has to be a girl, right? How about Margaret? She's got all those tentacle things and that'll help in secretarifying stuff. And the council member? Kisara. I mean she's so nice. I woulda voted for Ryder but he's gotten kinda weird lately."

Umm, I don't know any of these people but some of their reputations fit the roles. I think.

President: Satsuki Kiryuin. Sometimes leading takes a woman's touch. And her eyebrows are very striking.

Secretary: Seto Kaiba. I'm sorry, but I'd laugh if the corporate richboy got elected secretary. Loudly.

Treasurer: I hate to be the one to point this out, but don't dragons get their hordes by stealing it all? Couple that with the blatant bribery. Her posters are very nice, but I'm not sure appointing her is wise. Not that having some greedy corporation head do it is any better, of course. Toph seems like a perfectly down-to-earth person. She should do it.

Student Council: I... haven't really been here long enough to decide who's a good representative of what the students want and who isn't. I'd nominate myself, but nobody here knows me. Haha, ha, haaaaaaa. Rin Kurasawa in senior year seems like the friendly type, plus she has experience here and probably formed a rapport with most of the teachers by now. Why not?

Can I get back to slaying these killer alien robots now or are there any more pieces of paper you want me to scribble on?

VOTES BY PLAYER CHARACTERS CANNOT BE SUBMITTED BEFORE 2/13/15, AND ARE PMED DIRECTLY TO THE STORYTELLER HANDLE. IT IS A SECRET BALLOT. DO NOT TELEGRAPH YOUR VOTES OR THEY WILL BE INVALID.

The Student Body (the faceless NPC masses, vote on 2/20/15)

"Nominations for Student Council Will be accepted by timeout: Mello, Ryoga Kashmiro. Campaign Begins Now.


Final Nomination list -
Student Council (Vote for three): Blake Belladona, Kisara Rosenkreuz, Ryuko Matoi, Alessandro Dorian, Wes Fein, Rin Kurasawa, Malik Ishtar, Mello, Ryoga Kashmiro.
Treasurer: Millyn, Toph Beifong, Guy Manuel De Homem Christo.
Secretary: Margaret the Scylla, Lucifer Anghelscu, Champagne
President: (First place wins President, Second place wins Vice President) Satsuki Kiryuin, Seto Kaiba, Steve Sterling"

Good Luck Students!

How to Influence the Student Body:
Initially, there are several types of students in terms of attitude to your PC.
Hates! Requires a +4 Roll to turn these into Dislikes.
Dislikes. Requires a +3 Roll to convert to Indifferent
Indifferent. Requires a +2 Roll to convert to Likes
Likes. Requires a +1 Roll to convert to Loves!
Loves! This the top level.

Do NOT just roll. This needs to have a DETAILED RP behind it. Either a cameo or an actual scene with other players. Just being clever doesn't win elections, so there is NO 'base approach' for the campaign rolls. It's a combination of your aspects, stunts and xball roll plus (for others, not the CM's characters, cause that's flat out cheating) an arbitrary bonus for how well the post/scene fits a campaign speech.
Roll at the start of your scene or Cameo. (Fate Point Rerolls Allowed) You may invoke Aspects, Stunts, (+2s and the once per session ones) but the GM will determine the results of that once per session Stunts off-camera DO NOT MODIFY YOUR ROLL ONLY ROLL XBALL AFTER INVOKING - they will have a positive effect but you don't know exactly what.

Chances of Various levels to vote for a candidate
Hates! 0%
Dislikes 20%
Indifferent 40%
Likes 60%
Loves 80%

Every day that there are Hates! or Dislikes Student Body still around for your PC, they influence more Student Body to move down on the Attitude ladder.

No, I will not tell you how many Student Body are in each category for the PCs, you'll have to choose your campaigning carefully, and I will track the campaign, which begins on Saturday Feb 7th at 8AM Pacific Time.

The Equal Time rule applies here. Once the first PC running for an office does a Campaign Roll, every other PC running for that office gets a Campaign Roll before they can roll again. Limit is 1 Roll Per Day on PACIFIC TIME.

Elections will be held on Friday Feb 20th. PC voting NOT FOR OWN PC, opens on the 13th to allow time for everyone to vote. The Student Body votes on the 20th.
