Anti THOUSDGH Propaganda

Presidents and Vice Presidents were tasked with making propaganda in order to promote their parties, users were also allowed to make propaganda for their party,[2] a presidential debate was also planned by the staff of the server, but the idea was scrapped due to timezone and organizational issues.[3]

Phase Three

Users had to vote on one of the four parties of their choice on a google doc,[4] it was mostly a fight between the THOUSDGH party and the Feline Freedom Fighters, many members thought that the winner of these elections would be THOUSDGH, but against all odds

the winning party were the Feline Freedom Fighters led by WindowsXP and wad.[5][6]

Aftermath

The event was a massive success and to this day is remembered very fondly by users of Whenthe, with the FFF winning the elections, three users received a special FFF candidate role, WindowsXP, wad aswell as Myszak.

WindowsXP also received a unique Whenthe president role, which gave them #aaaa permissions, they were also allowed to send one message in the announcements channel as a prize,[7] a few THOUSDGH users were against the favor of FFF winning the vote, as they thought

that the votes could have been potentially rigged.

Second Elections

Here's how it will go.

Everyone who is interested in becoming president and is IJ+ must dm me with their chosen vice pick who can be any role and a potential presidential team name.

You will have 3 days to determine this. Be sure to talk to each other first as you will have plenty of time to strategize and coordinate your plans.To simplify the rules:

-IJ+ can be president

-Any role except mods can be vice president

-Pick a presidential name!

-DM me your team to enter into the race

-Mods and admins cannot join the race (sorry guys)

-Voting has NOT started yet

-Having a presidential team is perfectly fine and within the rules

-You have 3 days. ~ Steely

 
Election Results (2nd Elections)

There were significantly more parties running this election, though most of them had not been able to secure many votes, and make election changing propaganda, most users supported the party WOTE. Which was heavily influenced by the then loser party, THOUSDGH. WOTE was a coalition party that was led by five very much known members of the server. Finally, on the 13th of November 2022 the winners were decided through democratic elections, WOTE secured a major victory in the Second Whenthe Elections.
