Unfortunately, the following nominees were rejected for the reasons specified below:
ACCOUNT NAME / DISCORD NAME:
  • Tsarma / Wombraider - This player's behaviors hasn't changed since the last nomination cycle, and will not be allowed to run.
  • oespo / oespo#1099 - Oespo has not shown the characteristics to prove that he has the community's best interests at heart. We've had to remove him from the RP channel (which he circumvented), and he has scammed players in game.
  • Jamec / Jamec#1415 - Jamec has has shown disruptive behaviors on Discord and in-game, and has frequently used racial and homophobic language. He has not shown the characteristics to prove that he has the community's best interests at heart.
  • sheelcam / sheelcam dangerforpvpchat#3802 - sheelcam has has shown disruptive behaviors in-game, and has frequently used racial and homophobic language. He has not shown the characteristics to prove that he has the community's best interests at heart.

Blocking any player from running for the Senate is not a decision we take lightly, in past elections the few players we have blocked have admitted themselves to making troll nominations or have stated publicly they are doing so to deliberately cause disruption. We have always used the staff veto sparingly and only after great debate.
THE DEBATES:
The Campaign Channel will be open everyday at 7am PST | 9am CST | 10am EST | 3pm GMT | 4pm CEST | Next Day 2am Australia| AND 5pm PST | 7pm CST | 8pm EST | Next Day 1am GMT | 2am CEST | Noon Australia | from February 1st thru February 6th. By opening the chat twice per day, this should allow for everyone to be able to ask the candidates any questions that they may have.
THE ELECTION BEGINS!
The polls will open on Sunday, February 7th, 2021, and the campaigning will continue forward from this date! Good luck to all our candidates and we hope the community does its usual excellent job of giving them all a good grilling over the next few weeks!
