To rule the world

Post by Sevothtarte »

Ok, kids. I've been back a whole day and didn't start a new thread yet. You knew it couldn't last.

Situation: You have to appoint someone else, not yourself, as new absolute ruler of the world. It has been to be a fellow KW user, and you have to tell us why you picked him or her - you can go all sappy on us and pick name withheld because she's such a lovely person and with her as queen the world would be a happy place, you can pick enter name here simply because he's hot and hot hunks rule, or you might actually pick THAT one because you seriously think he's/she's the most qualified to not totally mess things up for everyone for reasons you will tell us. Maybe there's a fellow user you often disagree with but you'd still rather have them in charge than anybody else? Let us know.

i'd also pick Avatar. he would allow for the most diversity in goverment, and would actually think things through before implementing changes. and I would get to be in charge of prisons.

I would pick anybody smart enough to consider Avatar. And then I would assinate them, once the power got to their heads.

If you're a underling, you're under the influence of your master. Being the one with all the power is better because you can do whatever you want(but you can't draw square triangles).

I'd pick me, cos I'm magnificent!

And I'd love to see Av's face when i close down the tank.....It'd be like kicking a puppy....Mwahahahahahaha!! :twisted:

But if i cant pick myself, I'd go for Syl. He seems with it...sort of. More than most anyway.

knock it off you two! :P thats sorta the problem with the world now, except Cail is by no means such an extremist as I am.....I'm sure I would surprise everyone with the level of devestation I would require to remake the world in My Image....without Cail owning half the world....heh :twisted:

I also choose Avatar, with Syl and Xar, equally, but in different respects, even as I also realize that any plans they had would probably require my removal from the scenario, due to their fears of my unknowns and maybe some misunderstandings, but also their valid realization, based upon my knowns, that I would fight them to the death based upon any "disagreements" I may have with their "policies".... ;) (that is, if I could ever get out of my bong chair :mrgreen: )

who knows? maybe they would find me useful as a socio-political tool? I'm not holding my breath, but I am going underground in the event any of this transpires.... :P
