Vote for King of the Internet!
[link|http://www.kuro5hin.org/story/2002/8/14/191820/137|Vote here and read the story].
I think that I may have a better shot over the other people running for it. As that I don't currently have a job and could start the position right away. :)

Can I be Secretary of the Treasury?
Or Grand Vizier?
I promise to faithfully collect every tax dollar owed...
Campaign funds might be collected in a manner similar to my sites?

That is what I was thinking of
having the web sites pay via Paypal. Then I can keep track of who paid and who didn't pay taxes.
I need someone to help me collect, from sites like K5, who don't recognize my authority. :)

Hmmm. We need an army.
Perhaps an army of zombie slaves, to be commanded by Commandant Ircbot... Maybe later.
Oooh! Mercenaries! Make a website showing your claim to the throne, etc, with a spot for donations... And a 'recruiters' link - send that to a page where (for a nominal fee) you can evaluate the cracking-competency of applicants... Those that 'pass', get a hefty cut (of the net, of course!) in return for 'assignments' - like cowing rebellious provinces (K5). Don't forget to put in a bunch of porno popups (We can determine what sites we wish to affiliate with later - who wouldn't want to be know as pornsite to the Crown?) - mercenaries like camp 'followers'...
Spam campains will win over the general populace - we can simply set up an MLM email scheme where the Government ALWAYS sits atop the pyramid. If a citizen buys into that, we can make it part of thier job to praise our regime... Remember, if we make our claims outrageous enough, the people go along with it, 'just in case' our claims are true. And this might only be the beginning!
Have I not proved myself a worthy Grand Vizier?

Maybe
I was thinking of an Army of "Terminators", and making "Skynet" stations in space, but it will cost too much. Our budget, if we ever get one, will be to take what is left of the "Battlebots" from the trashcan dumpster behind the station that films the show, and then rebuild them with better weapons and armor. Then let the Recycled "Battlebots" be our army.
Or we can just take a bunch of Penguins and stick rockets on their backs and... nah it's been done already "Batman Returns" and all that. :)
Mercenaries tend to hang out with skanky hookers and tend to catch VDs/STDs too often from those skanky hookers. We would do better to recuit cats and dogs and then give them a brain upgrade to a cerebrial implant that we can control. But then that would also cost a lot, yet without it we wouldn't be able to control the cats and dogs and they would just fight each other.

lol--a teammate got a shell from Mortise that way @BB
In Nov 2000 (iirc?) we were the *only* team left "the morning after" in the pits. Tons o' scrap lying around, including one of the fiber outer shells from the Mortise team (UK). Our temporary team member snagged it. All I got was some Mauler coasters. :)
Many fears are born of stupidity and ignorance -
Which you should be feeding with rumour and generalisation.

Nope, doesn't pay anything
and I haven't had a job since November 2001. Being King of the Internet not only would bring in a better salary, but would give me the option to work from home and make a difference on the Internet. :)

Yeah, that is the way to do it
My name "Nor(se)man" speaks of my heritage, time to bring back the [link|http://www.normanconquest.co.uk/|Norman Conquests]! Yes!
In case I cannot make it to Europe, I can always attack [link|http://www.cityofnormandy.gov/|the other Normandy City] as it is right next to where I live. My cousin used to play Football for their High School, it is so close.
