Super sorry for the delay, I had an organized trip first and then a couple of days of La Serena-Santiago-Buenos-Montevideo-Madrid-Warsaw flights.

Pics follow soon.

Hear ye, hear ye, hear ye!

Finally, the time has come for which you all waited so long - we are yet again as one and we will forever celebrate 22 July as the Democracy Day, the day on which your good leader reached out to all survivors of the Planetfall and brought you all to vote. Aren’t you as excited as I am? Democracy is TIGHT!

And so, without further ado, in the left corner, sporting blue trunks, is… you know what, forget introductions. This Council decided to make it more comfortable for you – to lube you up to the idea of election, if you will. Hence, in the grand tradition of the Earth’s final century, you get no real choice at all. Seriously, it all gets down to a crook vs. moron. Are those tears of nostalgia, guys? Don’t be too shy about them! Things were so good in 2016, amirite?

So, our first candidate has a truly heinous personality and has been corrupted beyond redemption basically since kindergarten. He once stole the wallet off a hooker and tried to blame his own wife. And this is a story he boasts about! He is just the WORST.

Not until you see the other one, that is. Our second candidate is so dumb, he’s not registered by mind worms and can walk freely among them. He once heard the word “bill” and decided to name his next draft document a “teddy”. I dare you to find a less competent person for this office, and that includes Eddie the Cannonball, our first and last Flat Chironist.

Therefore, does it really matter which is Lal and which is Svensgaard? I didn’t think so. Choose or toss a coin, I don’t care – no matter who wins, we all lose. And isn’t it what democracy is all about?

I've never seen these people before in my life.

But Miriam wouldn't accept piracy, would she?

I know these people and trust me, behind closed doors they would sell their high horse agendas for a cone of ice cream. Let's not be like them. Ask yourself another question - would you condone piracy? If there is one law Morgan truly cares, if there is one "right" he fully stands by, it is the right to own property. And what do the Pirates think about it? The exact opposite. In fact, just look how Deedee voted, and she really hates the Morganites - all votes to Ulrik, like a huge bird flipped right in your face, just to spite you. Will you let her do that?

Brother Lal promises all macroeconomic ratios to double within 10 years for all factions who vote for us. And we're not after your booty! However that sounds.

I'll vote Lal.

If those profits don't appear in 10 turns, I'll be disappointed.

Oh my god, it must be his first election! Do you guys see that? He’s clearly voted for the first time and it was me! I don’t want to gloat, but youguysyouguysyouguyshighfive! Years from now, when another politician promises to rock his world, he’ll still remember where it all started.

Hermit, it’s my first election, too! We won’t do anything you’re not comfortable with. *dances nonchalantly to a tape recorder, puts on Roxette*

I actually did prepare my acceptance speech, but I’m being so emotional that I can barely put a few words together, so sorry for that. I’m just overwhelmed with various emotions. Shock. Horror. Disbelief. That kind of disgust when you just can’t stop looking…

Oh, I know. Do you remember the first time you read about that Japanese guy who married his anime pillow? And not in a “he changes the sheet every day” way but rather “he takes her out to eat and shop and talks about how much they have in common”? And you thought to yourself “so instead of hoverboards, we’re getting this? The future’s gonna be way wackier than we were promised.”?

So it’s basically this.

Nevertheless, please accept my thanks for all the support you so inexplicably lent me. *dances nonchalantly to the tape recorder, puts on Roxette*
