OT Presidential Elections 2021

Phase One

I'd like to announce that a new yearly OT Presidential Elections are to start.
During the duration of this event, denizens shall pick a new OT President to rule over OT and represent the land of OT and its denizens in foreign and internal government affairs.
I, KatouMegumi (AKA. Fizzn) was entrusted to organize and host this election.

I wish all the future presidential candidates luck in their presidential campaign!

This election shall be concluded in three phases:


Phase one:
- During this phase, any OT denizen not under any criminal charges or convictions may register as a presidential candidate.
- Whomever wishes to apply as a presidential candidate should fill a registration form that will be provided later in this thread.
- Besides the required information, the future candidate may provide additional information about themselves or their future campaign, excluding attacks, bribery or any kind of manipulation against other fellow candidates.
- The registration form shall serve as your presidential campaign speech so additional information about your campaign is highly welcome.
This phase shall last for 7 days. No registrations will be accepted after the aforementioned period.

Phase two:
- After all the candidates have registered themselves, they shall be summoned to "OT Presidential Elections 2021 - Second Phase" thread to answer questions given to them by either OT Parliament or denizens whom choose to contact me and submit their questions to the candidates.
- If a candidate refuses or can't answer a given question, they shall be disqualified from running a presidential campaign.
- Do note that denizen submitted questions shall be sent to my ingame PMs (website chat) or legacy website inbox. Some questions may not be considered for being irrelevant or other undisclosed reasons.
- A denizen may submit the question to the candidates anonymously if they choose so.

Phase three:
- This phase shall begin after the second phase has completed, voting will be open for all OT denizens.
Each denizen (incl. candidates) can only vote for one candidate (or themselves if they run a presidential campaign).
- Denizens who had voted must confirm that they have voted in "OT Presidential Elections 2021 - Third Phase" thread.
- Each voter will be provided a unique token after they have voted. Once the results have been announced, a voter may find whom they voted for by their token listed in the voting results.
- The voting period will last 7 days and the most voted candidate wins the election.
- Candidates are allowed to create further campaign speeches during the voting either in this thread or as a separate thread. (Example: "Eriri4Prez", "Best Girl Eriri's Presidential Campaign Speech.", et cetera.)



Registration form and campaign rules.


Registration form:
- Introduction. (Username, position in OT, which OT generation are you from, etc.)
- Registration reason.
- Past OT experiences: (Honestly, anything notable you had done at OT.)
- Your vision of OT as a President.

Election rules:
- Buying votes, bribery or any action that undermine fairness of the election are prohibited. Anyone found in violation of this shall be immediately disqualified.
- A denizen may only vote once, even themselves if they run their own campaign. However, anyone found commiting vote manipulation using clones or any other means of population inflation to increase their votes shall be disqualified.
- Anyone who uses clones or any other means of population inflation to increase candidate's votes shall be arrested by OT Police and disqualified if found to be an OT Presidential Candidate.
- Candidates are prohibited from cooperation between themselves.
- Treat everyone properly and keep it civil. You obviously have a right for free speech and expression of yourself, but you shall not use those rights to attack a candidate with slander or any other way to undermine someone's presidential campaign. Constructive criticism is welcome, however.

Candidates found to be in violation of those rules shall be disqualified. This may take one of several infractions, depending on their severity.


List of registered candidates:


- nedd83 [DQ]
- Penguin
- pentaqola [DQ]

- my name is nedd83. i'm a 7th gen denizen and a professional chef known by no other name.

- i'm registering because there is clearly change needed to be brought into Off-Topic. i want to do that change, and i want to do it in a way that is the best.

- i have brought destruction upon this world, was the CEO of a tech corporation that is currently owned by KatouMegumi and was (and will always be) a VTuber fanatic

- my vision for Off-Topic is enforcing TRASH to this place.
what is TRASH? well, it's;

To maintain quality
Represent the denizens
Accuse the absolute shitposters
Supply assistance in content
Help those in unjust exile

for far too long, we have lived in this place without none of these in our lives, and my vision is an OT where that's not the case.
an OT where shitposts don't consist of stupid and de-railed threads.
a great OT.

If we vote for nedd83 he's going to destroy OT with his army again.

FEAR NOT DENIZEN!
Responsabilities of the President are stated in the OT!Constitution.
community/forums/topics/1021462

For people too lazy to look

D. Concerning the executive power and duties of the president


XXXIII. The executive power shall lie with the President of OT. The president shall hold office during the term of one year, of which he must be elected for.

XXXIV. No person who has not been a denizen, per the requirements of the royal society, for a minimum of three months, may be chosen president.

XXXV. In case of the removal, death, resignation, or inability to perform duties of the President, the OTParliament may appoint an officer who shall act as president until the inability is removed or a new president is elected.

XXXVI. Before entering office, the president shall swear the following oath: "I solemnly swear that I will rightfully execute the Office of President of OT, and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the OTConstitution."

XXXVII. The president shall act, and perform the duties related to the role as:
  • a) Chief of State
    b) Chief executive
    c) Chief administrator
    d) Chief diplomat
    e) Commander in chief
    f) Chief legislator
    g) Chief of party
    h) Chief citizen
XXXVII. The president shall at the start and end of his term, give a speech addressing the State of OT, and recommend to the OTParliament what to do.

Make sure to read this too.

As a representative of OT!Government, I'm asking for a bit more seriousness in this thread, we wouldn't like to see a serious postulation amidst lots of spam. Thank you.
Lapizote
thank you representative.

gl to the poor soul that is the future president!
ClevelandsMyBro
whats in it if i get elected?
pentaqola
wowza! might as well go ahead with this

-i'm pentaqola! OT's monster from the 6th generation

-my reason for registering is mostly because i want to check on for possible improvements that can be applied to a wonderful place like this.

-honestly the only notable thing i remember doing is busting in A-Breaking Laboratory and eating the supply of ot!pills. perhaps also the oddly stylistic posts i do could be part of this

-OT is a great place for some interesting posts. sure its a wasteland here and there, but some pretty interesting stuff can come up once every some time or so. and when you find something rather interesting, it can be great to invest in it for a moment

Winnyace
Hi! I'm Winnyace. I'm a 7th generation denizen. I'm the cringe master of these lands.

I want to make OT a more easy place to survive. I want to provide intrafracture like stores and malls alongside churches and other places.

I created my own store which sells all sorts of goodies and the religious place of Kurashina Asuka & Moeta Kaoruko.

I want to satisfy the needs of denizens, both spiritual and physical needs.

~ Introduction ~
Hello :) I'm Corne2Plum3, the 122nd OT!denizen and the 9th from the 7th generation. I'm here since april 2020. I'm a very cute fluffy goat OwO. Note: I don't use my gun a lot.

~ Registration reason ~
I'm registering because why not? No, seriously because I want to improve the OT to spend good time in this amazing place! I want to contribute in the OT!history.

~ Past OT experiences ~
Recently,
  1. I was the leader of the OT!skin collab, a crazy collab where 16 denizens created a skin, and it worked!
  2. Active at RP: active in the OT!house and the YyottaCat's secret lab, or the JAB strange minds arc the last year.
  3. Created several forums games, the How the user above you is cute? UwU for example.
  4. Won the Thread Necromancy game 5 times, and the only who won 4 times in a row.
~ Your vision of OT as a President ~
For me, the Off-Topic is a wonderful place where people spend good times and funny moments. The creativity of the users is limitless.

WitherMite
Buying votes, bribery or any action that undermine fairness of the election are prohibited. Anyone found in violation of this shall be immediately disqualified.
so technically you can sell it, but the one buying would be in trouble
