nik_bg Posted November 2, 2004 Posted November 2, 2004 Nice and Happy Voting to all US citizens! And choose carefully!
Oerwinde Posted November 2, 2004 Posted November 2, 2004 Vote Gilligan! He'd probably do a better job than anyone else who's running... The area between the balls and the butt is a hotbed of terrorist activity.
Weiser_Cain Posted November 2, 2004 Posted November 2, 2004 Choose carefully? You know this 'code' is getting annoying. I'm tempted to vote bush just to spite you. Mwahahahaha... Yaw devs, Yaw!!! (
nik_bg Posted November 2, 2004 Author Posted November 2, 2004 Weiser Cain, In addition to your Juhani 3D model (we all remember it ), why don't you make such for Bush?
Weiser_Cain Posted November 2, 2004 Posted November 2, 2004 Not sure what you're asking, but my juhani model is gone due to a hard drive failure... Yaw devs, Yaw!!! (
Kaftan Barlast Posted November 2, 2004 Posted November 2, 2004 True, urging people to vote is a filthy democrat trick. Because if everyone voted in the US, Bush would stand no chance. DISCLAIMER: Do not take what I write seriously unless it is clearly and in no uncertain terms, declared by me to be meant in a serious and non-humoristic manner. If there is no clear indication, asume the post is written in jest. This notification is meant very seriously and its purpouse is to avoid misunderstandings and the consequences thereof. Furthermore; I can not be held accountable for anything I write on these forums since the idea of taking serious responsability for my unserious actions, is an oxymoron in itself.

Volourn Posted November 2, 2004 Posted November 2, 2004 "True, urging people to vote is a filthy democrat trick. Because if everyone voted in the US, Bush would stand no chance." Proof? The population seems to be pretty uch split so I doubt that would change by any significant margin. DWARVES IN PROJECT ETERNITY = VOLOURN HAS PLEDGED $250.
deganawida Posted November 2, 2004 Posted November 2, 2004 And choose carefully! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Or what? You'll castigate me through the anonymous medium that is the Internet? You'll claim that Americans are dumb/deserving of terrorist attacks/ugly/fat, if you don't like my choice? I got to tell you, those prospects are mighty terrifying.

Ellester Posted November 2, 2004 Posted November 2, 2004 I live in Ohio and it's been taking about and hour and a half to two hours to get their votes in this morning. One of my techs is has been in line since 7:00 and he's still not here at work (9:30). Because Ohio is supposed to be one of the swing states I think everyone is coming out to vote. A good thing, imo. Life is like a clam. Years of filtering crap then some bastard cracks you open and scrapes you into its damned mouth, end of story. - Steven Erikson
deganawida Posted November 2, 2004 Posted November 2, 2004 No matter how anyone votes, I am proud of my fellow citizens for voting. We've been lax in the voting department for far too long.
Vincent_Valashar Posted November 2, 2004 Posted November 2, 2004 I agree, but it doesn't help matters when neither candidate is worthwhile to vote for and you know that any third party person has no chance.
tripleRRR Posted November 2, 2004 Posted November 2, 2004 Yeah, but it is still something that we need to do. TripleRRR Using a gamepad to control an FPS is like trying to fight evil through maple syrup.
Cantousent Posted November 2, 2004 Posted November 2, 2004 I voted this morning. They say my vote doesn't count in California, but I rather disagree. First of all, my vote is my voice and I am not only entitled to use it but obliged as well. Second of all, there are state, county, and local issues to resolve. As important as the commander-in-chief is, we can't forget other measures and positions to decide. As for everyone in the United States voting... why should I want everyone to vote any more than I'd like everyone to understand the issues? Voting is good only when it's an educated vote based on a reasonable understanding of the choices at hand. Too much emphasis is placed on voting. I'd rather folks who haven't taken the time to contemplate the issues didn't vote at all. For folks who have studied the issues, there is ample room for disagreement. It's not that a reasonable deliberation will lead every American to the same vote. Vote for Kerry or Bush (or any other candidate), but don't vote based on the hyperbole of the opposing party or unsubstantiated claims made by any person or group of people.

You would never see anything like that in Britain in the run up to elections. I have to agree with Volourn. Bioware is pretty much dead now.

twigster Posted November 2, 2004 Posted November 2, 2004 THe thing that this "high turn out" has all proven is that the voting system needs a major overhaul. If we the people were to "go out and vote" we'd bring the system to its knees. It's so antiquated, it's been designed with 50 - 60% turn to be a max. Heaven forbid if all people of voting age were registered AND voted. The chaos that would ensue would make 2000 debacle look like a picnic.
taks Posted November 2, 2004 Posted November 2, 2004 actually, i'll bet that the "high turnout" really isn't as high as they're estimating. people are worried there will be a high turnout so they're voting early rather than putzing around. we'll see, but i bet it's not much more than ever in the end... i'm not going till around 2 or so. taks comrade taks... just because.
Sarjahurmaaja. Posted November 2, 2004 Posted November 2, 2004 Why do you guys need to register to vote? Sounds unnecessarily complicated. 9/30 -- NEVER FORGET!
ShadowPaladin V1.0 Posted November 2, 2004 Posted November 2, 2004 Why do you guys need to register to vote? Sounds unnecessarily complicated. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> It's common practice. Stops people voting more than once. I have to agree with Volourn. Bioware is pretty much dead now. Deals like this kills development studios. 478327[/snapback]
Sarjahurmaaja. Posted November 2, 2004 Posted November 2, 2004 We don't register to vote here in Finland and people don't get to vote twice here... 9/30 -- NEVER FORGET!

deganawida Posted November 2, 2004 Posted November 2, 2004 We aren't allowed to vote more than once, either, but that doesn't stop people from trying. There are people who try to vote multiple times, use the names of the deceased, use made-up names, ad infinitum.
Sarjahurmaaja. Posted November 2, 2004 Posted November 2, 2004 "Do they paint you after you have voted or something ?" :D 9/30 -- NEVER FORGET!
