'Tis the season to vote your governors

[Wolfman]

hey everybody!

Since it is a little difficult with the VVV system making most towns battle-zones from time to time, I already heard that a few governors do not want to run again.
So here my question:
Who is running for what city?
I am already setup as candidate in New Magincia!

 

[SpyderBite]

Can't speak for Victim, but I'm pretty confident that he'll be running again for Vesper. In the odd circumstances that he doesn't. I'll run for Vesper.

 

[TheScoundrelRico]

I will be running for Gov in Britain as soon as I log back in...la

 

[Sam]

I'll be running in Jhelom!

 

[GarthGrey]

Just my .02, but from an RP perspective, no true citizen of Britain would cast a vote for a known Pickpocket, especially one of such Legendary status...just sayin.

 

[TheScoundrelRico]

Bah, anyone and everyone should vote for me. Why? Because I "promise" not to steal from anyone in my city. There are plenty of other locations to find marks...la

 

[VinnySP]

I'm planning running again for Minoc. Pretty sure I only have like 4-5 people/citizens :[ If anyone else would like a shot at it, I'm cool with that. If not, I will continue to run the SSI unless somebody would like something different.

Singularity

 

[Victim of Siege]

I will be running again in Vesper, but I would like to see them come up with a way we can delegate the power temporarily to another person. That way we can avoid a repeat of last term . . .

 

[kelmo]

Not running. VvV has nothing to do with that decision. I will support Sarah of L-H in her run for Trinsic.

 

[TheScoundrelRico]

Does a Governor need to be in VvV?...la

 

[Victim of Siege]

Does a Governor need to be in VvV?...la

Negative

 

[SpyderBite]

Nope. But if you're spending much time in your home city, you're bound to go Orange anyways.

 

[TheScoundrelRico]

LOL, is their a way to know if you are orange? I've always gotten attacked by other players just because they feel it's an easy kill with no worries about a murder count. But I've been getting attacked recently for no apparent reason.

Reminds me of my perma grey days, but back then you could suicide yourself and rid yourself of the grey...I believe you can't do that if you are orange.

Oh and I haven't entered the S|S into the VvV system (yet?)...la

 

[Kattasrophe]

Running For Moonglow *smiles*

you go Orange if you heal, attack etc. a VvV player or you sit in a battle city too long. the only way to rid yourself of the affliction of Orange, is to wait out the 8 hr timer, or be killed by a VvV player.

 

[Victim of Siege]

Not running. VvV has nothing to do with that decision. I will support Sarah of L-H in her run for Trinsic.

but i respect your decision and will also support Sarah in anyway I am able.

 

[Bo Bo]

Mr Hugibear will be the gov of Brit!

Bah, Hugi will fail at reelection...la

whats the point of voting for you?
do you even have an active account? if so for how long?

 

[TheScoundrelRico]

Yes I have an account, rather silly question from a rather silly person...la

Welp tried to sign up. Not enough city loyalty to nominate myself. Maybe in 6 months...la

 

[Podolak]

I plan on running for mayor of Podoville.

Vote Podo for Podoville!

you need to drop about 60k iron ingots into the loyalty crate beside the trade minister, or its about 100k boards, do not remember how many fish-steaks though. you will be able to run for Governor. it only takes about 4k ingots from 0 loyalty to vote though.

I made pots and donated them as I trained Alchemy.. Had Respected by the time I hit RoT. ^^

 

[TheScoundrelRico]

Is there an automated way to know how many trade quests you've run? I started running them last night and got to Respected level. I know I probably ran at least 15-20 last night, but it would be nice to have somewhere to go to see the exact number.

On side note, is anyone working on camping? LOL, I swear every other SoT I received when doing those quests was for camping.

On a second side note...I checked out a few vendors and it looks like most SoT run for about 10k per .1 of skill gain, is that different for some of the more desired skills? I got a few good ones I'll throw on a vendor like EI and Tactics (1.0 on each) but want to price them under current market rates (since we need to get this economy under control)...la

Only problem is, if you price them under current market rate, some will buy them and resell them

 

[TheScoundrelRico]

It's a start. If people know they can get items for less than the gougers, they may wait...or they'll pay more if they aren't patient. I will only price my goods as I see as a fair market value. If someone buys them and sells them for more, so be it...la

 

[Spiffykeen]

10k per .1 on SoTs is a good average base price. The more desirable ones, I have seen go for more, but if you're looking for a fair price, I would make the desirable ones 10k per point, and the crappy camping and taste ids cheaper. I try to price things at a level I think is fair, but not so low that I'll get hurt feelings if I see someone else get way more

 

[TheScoundrelRico]

That's the beauty of playing a thief (granted these were earned from trade quests) Most of my loot is attained via stealing skill, I never have hurt feelings if I find out I got a low price...la

 

[GarthGrey]

There are titles obtained by doing so many quests. You can tell if you have 25 by using your context menu, Open Titles Menu, Subtitle, Rewards and seeing if you have any listed. I forget the numbers associated, but Trader is 25, Exporter is 50 etc...

 

[Tjalle]

I´ll buy all your Camping pinks...

 

[Kat]

My votes go to Hugi since he appoints me CEO of Britain or any other ridiculous title I want at my whim! He knows how to keep a girl happy, college money or not!!!

 

[TheScoundrelRico]

I would never pretend to buy someone's vote URL or in a game. I thought it would be fun to run for the office.

That being said it would be funny to beat a player who has attacked me on site since I've returned...la

Rico - Run in Skara. I'll vote for you there with my crafter. She is a citizen of Skara Brae.

I am not sure about a lot that is going on here but at least he gave a giggle. La..

I am teasing but you know he has a point Rico...

You honestly are a wealth of information to returning players. It looks like they have made some interesting changes....not at all bad but they need more.

I do not mean this in a cruel way, but more a joking way since someone spoke on it earlier.

I think my Nepotism comment went over 2 heads

 

[TheScoundrelRico]

So, does anyone have a list of actual races for Governorships? Since I only have my single account I only know that Britain is a race between Hugi and me (this was as of yesterday afternoon so someone else may have joined the race...la

Vesper is Uncontested. I will be Governor again

 

[SpyderBite]

Vesper is Uncontested. I will be Governor again

Yes you will

 

[HoldenCaulfield]

Sleepy elections this time. I miss the election entertainments and passions of last round . What 6 months can do to a place...

 

[Spiffykeen]

Well, they were cursed after all....

 

[TheScoundrelRico]

As of this morning, in the Britain Gubernatorial election Hugi and I are sitting each at 50% of the current vote (yes, I voted for myself )...la

 

[FrejaSP]

What date do the voting end?

 

[TheScoundrelRico]

According to uo.com

• At the conclusion of the 1 week voting period a winner will be chosen based on the character who has received the most votes

So it looks like it will last until Sunday night...la

 

[SpyderBite]

I voted on both accounts last night... not sure it was necessary as the governor of Vesper is uncontested. But better safe than sorry!

 

[FrejaSP]

I was thinking of running for New Mag as Morgan need a little challenge, but then again, he do an ok job and I would not have the time.
Look forward to see who will win Britain, good luck to your both
