Why is someone who has never hosted a game of Werewolf running for that position and debating on whether or not to run for Gaming also?
How about I teach you a lesson?
No but seriously, I should explain why and why this would contribute to my being more active again on here.
Thane of Gaming
1. Why are you running for this position?
I am running for this thaneship because I like playing games and hope that I can spread knowledge about how different games work around the region to make game sessions a little easier to handle.
2. What do you aim to accomplish as thane? As part of this, you must include at least one thing that you promise to do beyond the minimum listed duties of the position during your term. It should be measurable, so that it's black and white whether you fulfilled this mandate at the end of the term if you are elected.
I plan to host game sessions (and believe or not, not just Jackbox games
), I also plan to finally write up that guide explaining .io games and how they work because those could also be good games for these sessions.
3. What qualifications or experience do you have in the area that you are running in?
I was Thane of Gaming before. I have been playing video games for years and have a lot of specific knowledge about certain games in particular. I have hosted game sessions before on Discord.
(For the unanswered questions look below.)
Thane of Werewolf
1) Why are you running for this position?
I have been interested in trying out this Thane position for a while now. Since Pengu is not running and Laurentus might not be running others may have a chance of being elected to this position. Werewolf is a fun game and I hope to host some games of it on Discord while I also host other games.

I definitely plan to update the Hall of Records list and possibly add other Halls of Records lists for other games. I plan to host at least two games of Werewolf on Discord and I will participate in other games unless I am helping to host them. I will offer assistance to people looking to host Werewolf and other games, especially on the forums. I might even post a little thread of tips for people interested in hosting Werewolf or just learning about it and Mafia. I will also update people's badges but that's not really important here
.
2a) If you are an incumbent running for re-election, did you fulfill your mandate from the September election? If not, why didn't you?
n/a
3) What qualifications or experience do you have in the area that you are running in?
In terms of hosting Werewolf, none. I have played in a few of the games here though and in Mafia and Werewolf games elsewhere along with Town of Salem. I have also hosted Spyfall, Summersend games, a Trivia Murder Party I will eventually finish if responses are sent from the players or they say whether or not to end it, and eventually an Arena. My greatest area of expertise in Werewolf is being lynched for bad reasons (not here but in other games) and killing other players (here) in Werewolf. So I am not technically qualified except as a player though that is the case for many people that could run here.
4) How do you plan to have the time to fulfill the duties of the position until the next election in March?
While being stuck at home I have more time on my hands. I can't guarantee that I will keep up my activity because I can be a bit random but I will definitely try to keep it up. Especially while I work on finishing up the games I will be hosting.
5) Are you currently a part of any other NationStates regional or organizational government? If so, please include those regions and positions.
I am the two nations in the region of Command and Conquer Fans and Players but nothing happens there except for polls that anyone can vote in.
Vote for me or don't, I am fine either way.
