New Mombasa Posted February 6, 2009 Report Share Posted February 6, 2009 A song in honor of Heft to the music of "Loser" by Beck. In my time in IRON gov I was a phoneyFrancoism in my veins and I'm out to cut the "I" out With the red eyeballs, take over the council Soldier food stalls with the Josef Thorne's pantyhose Kill independence and roll over the neutrals Orange sphere dominated with propaganda on cruise control DM in Pacifica with the Nutella see? Got a couple of blocs, praise belongs to me Someone came in sayin Im insane not to complain about NPO domination but I have a red stain on my shirt Don't believe everything that you post You get a treaty violation and your alliance is toast So build your nation with some tech in the dark When the Hippo rolls you you'll be left with a trailer park Yo. cut it. Soy un traidor I'm an NPO plant baby, so why don't you kill me? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TJN3PGqDRNg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kevin McDonald Posted February 6, 2009 Report Share Posted February 6, 2009 Heft, you've been an excellent friend to the ACV and we will miss you. Congratulations on a well earned retirement. IRON will be hard pressed to fill your shoes, but I'm sure FinsterBaby will make an excellent repalcement. o7 Heft o7 FinsterBaby o7 IRON Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Narras Posted February 6, 2009 Report Share Posted February 6, 2009 (edited) Sometimes it's nice just to sit back and relax. Enjoy your retirement. Out of curiosity, are IRON Presidents appointed or voted in? or sometimes one or the other? I was just quickly scanning the wiki page of IRON which at one time the IRON Council voted a president in and in this case, it seems to be an appointment.

VIdiot the Great Posted February 6, 2009 Report Share Posted February 6, 2009 Heft, I never had the pleasure to speak with you, but I really wish I had because of your incredibly eloquent post. Good luck in retirement. I did have the pleasure of dealing with FinsterBaby, and I'm sure he'll do an excellent job as President. Congratulations to both of you.

bill n ted Posted February 7, 2009 Report Share Posted February 7, 2009 (edited) Out of curiosity, are IRON Presidents appointed or voted in? or sometimes one or the other? I was just quickly scanning the wiki page of IRON which at one time the IRON Council voted a president in and in this case, it seems to be an appointment. IRON Councilors who wish to become the next President upon the retirement of the current President put their names down in Council. IRON Council members then vote for who out of the prospective IRON Presidents they wish to have as their President. Whilst any IRON Members may become IRON Councilors via a Council vote the position of President is only available to a serving IRON Councilor. When the votes been cast you have your new President Edited February 7, 2009 by bill n ted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trinite Posted February 7, 2009 Report Share Posted February 7, 2009 Not having responsibilities makes CN much more enjoyable and far less stressful. So Congrats on the retirement .
