Thankful Scapegoat - November

21


Fall is in the air, and that means it's time for a new target of blame for the entire Meh community. Since we’ve already had quite a few nominations for the next recipient of scorn (Recipient of Scorn - new band name, I call it!) and it's election season, I figured we should take the next logical step and have us an old fashioned goat election (c'mon…that's not a thing).

I want all of the currently nominated goats to do some lobbying and write us a campaign speech. What impossible promises will you not be able to deliver on as our next scapegoat? Why should we vote for you? Political attacks on your fellow nominees are totally allowed, but no attempting to bribe me because it won't work.

Think school board campaigns and bonus points if you make a poster.

Here are the 7 officially nominated potential goats:
@cengland0
@joelmw
@TaRDy
@BillLehecka
@Starblind
@JazzyJosh
@bluedyn

As with all fair elections, write-ins are accepted. If you think you can take blame better than any of these nominees then feel free to submit your own speech.

Vote for your favorite nominee with stars. Endorsement (in the form of a reply) from a former goat will net you 3 extra stars, so be sure to promise them those cushy private sector jobs once you take office.

We'll tally things up 10/31 by 11:59pm EDT and the goat badge and all the email notifications that come with it will be transferred by the afternoon of November 1st.

Good luck!
