I have been around for one of the longest in Golemus, it has been my home for a number of years now, it has given me much freedom and life, so I would like to give something back. I am good at the organisational side of things that a secretary needs a talent for, I reformed the structure of the LHOs from when it was passed to me, as well as organising this election procedure for the land. Diplomacy wise, I get on well with the other land leaders and so keeping the peace (so far as we want to) should not prove difficult. I already am essentially the treasurer, in that I possess coins and memory stones that belong to the land, as such I am very much capable in the position (I would, of course, hand over all that belongs to the land to whomever is elected should it not be myself). Oh and they call me Greed-o because I tend to try to collate as much money as possible. Under me, our treasury would grow to unknown heights. As to what I'd aim to do with our treasury, we would sponsor quests, and also buy various creatures that could be issued as rewards for those who have an active engagement with the land. I am admittedly not the most active person, but I feel I would be able to do the role justice. If you have any questions about my candidacy or what I plan to do with it, please ask [:)] --- Someone asked me what I planned to do with this role in the future, so here we are; Secretarial wise, I would keep track of everything that's going on with the land (less pertinent things will likely be just a footnote), naturally this information, whilst not always provided publicly, would be available at request, as a matter of openness. Secrecy breeds distrust, after all, and people should be able to trust and believe in their leaders. Anyone who wants to have a look at a few of the docs I have already will see that they're easy to understand without explanation. As examples of my organisation, the MD Awards each year are organised by myself with only minor issues occurring, and this land election process was also spearheaded by myself (though others helped). As a diplomat I would try to organise a land trading association (of sorts) where we can exchange things between our own treasury for that of the other lands so that we may more easily gain certain resources that are harder for us to acquire due to our and their land allegiance. With the monthly Land Leader meetings and between these via informal meetings and messages to the other lands I would be able to measure the political climate and act accordingly - with that in mind I would also be open for all citizens to contact me regarding their feelings on the various lands and how they would like us to move forward in relation to them; would you like a close relation, or would you rather us look towards hostilities? I do not generally wish for war or hostile action, but if it might be necessary, then it would have to be. I resolve disputes fairly frequently, both quietly and publicly with the role I have as head of the LHO, and so I would be well suited to quelling disagreements between us and others as well as between those within our land. For me as a treasurer, it's about increasing the wealth of the land. I do not just mean increasing the amount in the treasury itself, but rather the wealth of citizens both in monetary and experience terms. In connection with the Events position there would be sponsored events and quests to attract players to the land and give them memories hard to forget (these wouldn't be every week, for logistical issues, more likely every 2 or 3 months). Any land tools we have, after our own citizens have picked what they wish, would be open for hire from external people, the fees from these would go directly into the treasury. I would also plan to use my knowledge of creatures and items to buy and sell things for a profit, where any loss due to bad investment would be supplemented by myself so that there's no risk to the funds themselves. By doing the above the overall wealth of our citizens and our land itself will increase.
