Tug island isn't big enough for both of us.
The choices
CallMeBigErn or Blueduck
Most votes by midnight New Year's eve is exiled from the Tug
Loser banished from poasting on the Tug Tavern forever doomed to lurk only!
No alt IDs, no coming back, no trickery or the loser contestant caught sneaking back must leave all boards on Hardcore Husky altogether in shame!
No cowards voting "anon" public pole!
Blueduck will not vote,
@CallMeBigErn can vote to give himself a headstart
bonus... I'm a Duck
Twist... named parties cannot opt out since Ern unilaterally gave himself immunity in his pole.
No lobbying for votes!
@DerekJohnson to be final judge and enforcer?
Let the board speak....

Queens gambit.
Not a wise opening unless you plan to cheat in this game
He's a Democrat. Of course he's going to cheat during voting
I voted for my own Tug ban. Well within the rules, it seems.
I appreciate the opportunity. These chances don't come around often.
Within the stated rules, it is.
Write in, Janet Reno.
@DerekJohnson and to the Tug community.
It was never my intention to actually have @CallMeBigErn banned from the board. In fact it was to show him how ridiculous his poll was to attempt vote adversarial poasters out of the tug he didn't agree with.
He responded with what I perceived as an arrogant and mocking reply by voting for himself.
Did he learn anything? I do not know..but as I said, this was in response to the ridiculous thread he started whether in jest or seriousness?
The selections of my poll participants was done as arbitrarily and undemocraticly as his was for my point. I however only volunteered myself to put a target on me and noone else. I don't feel Ern nor myself has any right to remove anyone from the tug on a personal whim opinion or vengeance but only by "the powers of HH that be" to protect the integrity of the board and free speech we are afforded here.
I formally ask and plead that all votes cast for @CallMeBigErn be vacated and this ridiculous thread be removed.
However, as it was my pole/poll and I selected the participants and set the rules and desired outcome …I cannot honorably remove myself from the final action that I myself requested.
I have received votes and will honor the rules as stated and accept the outcome as @DerekJohnson sees fit to enforce unless @CallMeBigErn is willing to request his pole be removed and requests my vote(s) also be vacated .….and ONLY IF @DerekJohnson who has been appointed as judge and enforcer approves.
Otherwise..the board has spoken!
Side note ...Reno can go!
I never took it seriously. Ern ain't going anywhere.
The anon pole was a social experiment to see if there was any chinks in the Tug armor. Nope. The Tug rides together. I got all the notes and conclusions I need.
BlueDuck's crusade, on the other hand…
