D-38 Boss Posted January 31, 2015 Report Share Posted January 31, 2015 A certainty? You're ahead in the pre-polls. The battle is far from over. Those who stand tallest; Fall furthest. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fishy Posted January 31, 2015 Report Share Posted January 31, 2015 "Self-pity is a psychological state of mind of an individual in perceived adverse situations who has not accepted the situation and does not have the confidence nor ability to cope with it. It is characterized by a person’s belief that they are the victims of events and is therefore deserving of condolence." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yoshi1176 Posted January 31, 2015 Report Share Posted January 31, 2015 (edited) Listen, I don't know how it happened, but you could imagine what people think when someone goes and says that they don't want to run because they don't have any votes. Than magically that night get more than five times the votes they had earlier that day. Some get upset that a lot of work that they put into something is countered by someone who put minimal work in and got pity votes, because that is what it looks like Anime.

AnimeAddict Posted January 31, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2015 im just as suprised as you are seriously people misunderstood the intent of that status i had posted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yoshi1176 Posted January 31, 2015 Report Share Posted January 31, 2015 (edited) Your status said something among the lines that you wanted to quit because you weren't getting votes. Than you got votes and now your all happy again and want to try to won this. What other candidates including myself are a bit frustrated about is that we put in tons of work only to be outdone by a little status update pretty much saying you feel bad for yourself. If you were winning because of the work, more power to ya, but right now it just looks like pity votes. And may I add, all those status updates are now deleted. It leaves one to wonder.

AnimeAddict Posted January 31, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2015 no when i said i wasnt coming back till after the election because it would just upset me i meant just that but what people are misunderstanding is i have put in alot of effort and thought to the things i have done for my campaign and when i saw you at 7 votes and me at 1 i did lose some of the will i had and i felt that there is no point coming to check it every day because i didnt think there was going to be any changing in the vote count it wasnt mean to be a means of rallying "pity votes" or anything like that if i was truly out for pity votes dont you think i would have done that during the finals rather then the preliminary round? besides i dont want to win that way anyway and yeah when i saw people willing to support me again. I collected myself and decided i wanted to try and give this one last effort before the pre-poll closes Yoshi you have to admit it is a blow to your motivation if you put lots of thought and effort into a campaign and then saw you only had one supporter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yoshi1176 Posted January 31, 2015 Report Share Posted January 31, 2015 Well when you have you with a main topic with one or two propaganda posts compared to me when I have a team of propagandists, and I am constantly out trying to pull votes, and I have multiple threads including a video people tend to notice one more. It's all about effort and publicity, You can't expect to win without putting a lot of time into it. Given my team is excellent, we all work hard to get noticed and earn those votes.

Axilus Prime Posted January 31, 2015 Report Share Posted January 31, 2015 Why is everyone taking this so personally? Not a single person has done anything that constitutes actual work for this. No sacrifice, no massive consumption of time, nothing. A few campaign banners and topics, advertisements in posts and statuses, and people are acting like they've actually done something? If the tide is turned overnight let it happen. The people will choose who they want. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnimeAddict Posted January 31, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2015 why do you think ive done my signature why do u think ive done the campaign post the statuses you also have to remember this is my first election and all you guys have done is tear down my campaign >.> and if im going to continue pursing to finish this campaign wouldnt it be good to remove the stuff saying im not as to not confuse people?

Axilus Prime Posted January 31, 2015 Report Share Posted January 31, 2015 I stand corrected. Maybe you did put some effort in. But did you fight for it? Bleed for it? Because the amount of complaining I'm seeing is proportional to that kind of sacrifice. You think that banners, videos, advertisements everywhere, mean you deserve their votes more? If that rule applied to real politics we'd all be in an even worse spot than we are now. Like I said, the people will choose who they want. And this is coming from someone with a measly two votes.

Fishy Posted January 31, 2015 Report Share Posted January 31, 2015 Guy's this is a rule, you do realize that? 11. No being a jerk to others in any way, even a joking manner. It hurts and offends others. So don't do it. If Spyro really wanted to, Axilus, Boss, Yoshi, and Anime could be disqualified. Leaving only Jack, Melody, and Tony. I stand corrected.

Axilus Prime Posted January 31, 2015 Report Share Posted January 31, 2015 Yes, he could. And I'm probably eliminated anyway, so I don't mind all that much. I just don't like seeing people act like they've been wronged simply because their work towards creating propaganda didn't pay off as much as they'd hoped. It's not like they did anything heroic to deserve the votes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
