Don't forget that everyone else was put their through the political machinations of the Shevat machine and are our puppets, except you and Casilu. We're plotting to bring you two down, push Elostian into the Void, raise me up as a god and rule the city as a theocracy dedicated to glorifying me.

People find any reason to use conspiracy as a reason for things. Family just happens to be the easiest thing to point out even if the family is absolutely innocuous or too small to carry out a conspiracy.

lol@people who think the Skyplumes have enough folks for a family conspiracy. Me and Ridley are the only relatively-active Skyplume Aeromancers and the whole election was going on during my week long break from Lusternia- I didn't even vote or talk to a single person about the election.


I think the thing is, Ridley is like, probably our single most knowledgeable combatant. In the city. He's #1. People are reluctant to give that up, even if he's basically gone- the same thing happened when I ran against Shedrin, who was 100% gone (not even 90% gone like Ridley) and never coming back for GM, and lost. By a pretty large amount, even. Shedrin was awesome as Archmage, and it's hard for people to willingly give up an awesome leader.

Then I ran again a week or so later, other people actually joined in on the election that time, and I ended up winning.

Anyway, just talk to people about how he is basically gone and try to make them see logically why they should prefer a less knowledgeable but active champion over one who isn't around. And that if they really really want him to be Champion, then they can go ahead and try to get him to be Champion again when/if he actually comes back, instead of hurting the guild by keeping him there while he's gone.

I lol whenever people get positions and then suddenly stop showing up. It's not even always their fault, but it happens often enough that I lol when it does.

I understand that Ridley is a great Aeromancer combatant, yeah he is probably #1, but I doubt that people see him as a good Champion because as soon as he got it, he stopped coming around.

Wait, what?

They're going to drive you out with corny pop-music, pseudo-science and bad contemporary art.
