Ellen Kiel is a woman of action, not of words. And so are her supporters. The number of replies only confirms the fact that Evon Gnashblade is all gnash, but no blade. That is all the number of replies will tell you.

Vote for justice. Vote for bikinis. Vote Kiel.

Here is reason i think gods are no longer on this plane. Gods have a lot of magical energy , dragons are drawn to magical energies. So where ever gods are dragons would attack. I think it lines up with store of dragon who ate the sun legend. Why would the sun want to be in same area where dragon wants to eat them. Halloween celebration was complements of Grenth for those who don’t know giving Mad king portions of Underworld to use for festivities. They still have active presence.

“Vote Evon, because CHARR” is something I frequently see on these forums.

“Vote Kiel, because HUMAN” is not something that has caught my attention, although IF you can link me to any specific examples, I’ll accept the OP’s premise.

I love how you put modern believes on a midevil society. The human and char war was like the 100-year war between France and England never really ended. The Char was lead by the flame legion a separate faction which EVON is not a part of. So by Judging him by past actions of race is definition of prejudiced and racism. That being said it is equivalent for blaming white people for slavery today honestly. Wait for the actual political race before you decide who to vote for. That probably wasn’t the best argument talking to Kiel supporters.

Items are only worth stuff when they are gotten through RNG have u noticed that. If they weren’t rare everyone would have them and you wouldn’t want them. Get ready for an inflation spike with upcoming updates they are making g to easy to get.

(…)
So you make 2 extra gold(really don’t loose) assumption of 50% is really streatching it over course of month I personally make 100g a week and that makes 400g a month. If u look at updates extra gold they are adding to dugions is 2g for a month of play vers 5g for 30mins of play really that impressive. My personal opinion not really.

I didn’t say 2g was the world, I said it’s more than money “saved” on keys I’m not buying. I’m saving 100% there already

People say don’t vote for EVON cause he cares about money. But u are making a decision entirely based on it. (…)

I did’t say I don’t care for money, Evon does not care about MY money, he just wants it, whereas Ellen gives me the option to save money and utilize it to protect Tyria.

Plus you forgot the little “priceless” end.

Adding further – I don’t like eavesdropping and I caught Evon doing that.

He eats puppies btw.

But in all seriousness I only responded because of the notion that there is no gold saved, I would wager that in total there will be more gold saved than with a price reduction on keys.

I didn’t say 2g was world either. Im saying 2g for a month of playing is nothing for a level 80. And if you are considering making decision for it you must not know how to make g at all that is all I’m saying.

Let’s guesstimate. 2 million players, for simplicity we’ll just take that as the amount of characters (yes I dropped 1 million on purpose). My waypoints are usually in the 2 – 3.5s – let’s say 2 uses per day, 4 weeks – 28 days – let’s go with 50% reduction and make it 2s total per day …

28 × 2 × 2 x 2,000,000 … that’s a lot of silver.

So just for myself, likely around 2 gold savings which is a lot more vs keys that I am not buying

Edit: Plus the added peace of mind of not supporting chest-RNG (’cause not all RNG is “bad”) – priceless.

So you make 2 extra gold(really don’t loose) assumption of 50% is really streatching it over course of month I personally make 100g a week and that makes 400g a month. If u look at updates extra gold they are adding to dugions is 2g for a month of play vers 5g for 30mins of play really that impressive. My personal opinion not really.

And that 2g is only if u have level 80s lower levels pay almost nothing for waypoints. Just Sit your 80s in COF area and level up your low levels and you wont pay any waypoint costs at all could sit a few at top of jump puzzles too when they add the new mats.

People say don’t vote for EVON cause he cares about money. But u are making a decision entirely based on it. Who will save us more money in long run a merchant who only cares about it or a Lion Guard who is under thumb of a Norn.

Just wanted to point out 2g over course of a month is honestly nothing for a level 80 which are the only people that will benefit from it. We have enough inflation with out adding more to it. Vote for EVON for better in game Econ.

Gnashblade is a corrupt, 2 faced merchant. You guys are like the uneducated masses who voted for Obama.

Kinda personally insulted by this since I most certainly did not vote for that man.

Besides, he was portrayed in the media as a savior type. Certainly not a business man, as those are generally vilified by the media.

In light of that, I could possibly say Kiel is the Obama analogue here, but she has more experience and integrity than he does, so…

Still #TeamGnashblade

Question how is Obama two faced when he is pushing legislation that he ran for and was supported obviously by majority? Also if you compare businessman appeal Robney was going for that like Evon is going for making esentually same stance improve the economy less taxes. So your stance doesn’t make sense.

I think Republicans throw away the election with vise president candidate they selected i think it was cause of growing national depth and they wanted to distance themselves from it. Comments she made competently destroyed their campaign. I wouldn’t say any thing disrespectful like Kiel reminds me of Sarah Palin though.

I just meant that people are for Evon emotionally rather than logically, as people were for Obama. Also fafnir, you are confusing the two elections. Not to derail the thread but I think American politics could use an overhaul. Get rid of career politicians, and introduce some new blood.

I don’t think war ever ended between char and human so i think it more embodies conflict in middle east where their is a constant anamosity between the two parties. Also the searing happened in the past it is the equivalent of saying all Germans today are kittens. So it is a racist statement to use for a political setting.

Kiel probably would want to distance herself from supporters like that but that is politics

Kittens was not Kittens

Difference is, Germany doesn’t honor and build monuments to Hitler.

I don’t think the playable Charr make monuments to the flame legion.

Waypoint cost is nothing key cost is nothing. Everyone is so caugut up on temporary content. As far as RNG goes u can calculate item cost for a 99% chance to get one so they have set values. you are just complaining cause it is expensive. Gem prices go up mostly due to inflation not cause of updates the 1g per dugion update will cause all prices to double in BLT but if u blame EVON for it you are blind and death to the massive amount of inflationg going on. I forsee platinum coins coming back because of it.

The battle between gods? Or an experiment gone wrong?

I know which one sounds more awesome.

You’ve got it all wrong mate. Its a battle between old (dead or gone) human gods, that dont have anything to do with modern tyria. OR more knowledge about research into the elder dragons and the energies and magic they use, which could be of GREAT value to the whole of tyria. I know which sounds more awesome AND useful

In contradiction to this. Would your rather do research into power of gods or power that blue up in asuras face killing thousands to use to fight the dragons. The speculation on what each one is and what each one will lead to is just that speculation. Anet has given us no information to make a choice between the two. Also i would like to point out that current fotm have no effect on the living story so i don’t expect added ones to have an effect either.

Found it funny. Ellen represents the Role Model of how we all should be, defending the weak, protecting her city, serving the people, the hero basically. Evon represents the Politicians who buy their power or even the business man who pays to get what he wants. Just like modern day politics!

PS: Ellen will be getting all my support, I’ll be farming in my sleep for Support Tokens.

Considering it is her job to do so I think it would be pritty bad if she didn’t. An i would like to point out she didn’t do very well requiring help of citizens she was support to protect. Not to mention she let a terrorist attack occur on her watch how could you not notice a flying ship above an important cerimoney that you where supost to protect. This election is so bias because they don’t let you know EVO’s past deeds where you got a first hand experience to Kiels. The Lions guards are all Pirates in shinny armor where EVON is a to class merchant so who really has the the best reputation. Kiel track record is horrible→over payed and over appreciated just because she worked on her vacation blew up a merchant ship killing all on board. The only reason to vote for her is to remove her from the post so she can be replaced with someone who can actually do their job.

People may have likes and dislikes of both parties, but given the 2 options, there is only one logical choice….that is unless you like frustration and suffering.

1) if you want to bring up gw1 fine, lets look at who made pre searing into the searing………that’s right the char.

2) which party is in favor of you the player wasting your hard earned money while laughing at you not getting what you want because its all “CHANCE” and “RNG”, all the while lining their own pockets with your hard earned money while you get nothing……… Evon Gnashblade

3) looking at the rewards for the parties, you get to save money or spend more money on more “CHANCE” maybe its just me but id rather have reduced costs saving me money than someone reducing the price of something you have to buy and even then its all “CHANCE”

4) Kiel helps people Evon Gnashblade cheats them taking a cut of everything they get and sell on the tp.

Its clearly obvious; vote to save money and someone who will help the people, or vote to spend more money and still not get what you wanted through “CHANCE” with someone who lies and cheats the people that work hard and play right.

Kiel is the only choice here! my vote goes to Kiel!

Your first point literally makes u a racist but 2 can play at this game. Who cause Snaff and Glit to die o ya a human. Who ran away as a coward a human. So why should we trust LA to a human over a char. And to people who say we cant post vote for EVON here you guys arn’t respecting our Forem so Why in hell should we respect yours.

Kiel didn’t do anything. She merely herded all us heroes to do the dirty work for her, and claimed the successes as her own.

Recruiting capable people to help achieve an aim that was beyond one person (really, for those people thinking they should get it, I challenge you to try to complete the entire karka queen meta event alone, let alone everything else) is doing something. She also had her own moments – figuring out that Canach was responsible for the animal attacks, and then arranging for the contracts to be loaded onto a Lionguard ship that could then be evacuated and scuttled without the Consortium being able to prove any foul play.

There’s also a certain limit to how strong a role any NPC can take. You’re trying to hold her to a standard that no NPC could hold up to – I can just imagine the complaints if ArenaNet had had Kiel become a champion-level friendly character that could solo all of the monsters while all we did was watch.

Well if you compare her to Rox and Brand she was entirely useless as a combatant. I argue it was really a reflection of he policy. I would like to point out she is kinda stupid she reached out and touched the electric fence in AR saying “o it shocked me” really what did u think would happen. People call her an adventure but she really doesn’t have the experience or wit to survive as one. 2ndly she is a soldier use to fallowing orders and is only running cause she was ordered to do so. A person who politics are to blow stuff up instead of negotiating will lead to utter destruction of LA. Vote EVON you never know he might be able to reduce the BLT tax of core in his own interest though.

Most genocides begin with identifying a group as separate and inferior. Because Tyria has multiple races groups of division naturally occur. The Dragons through their power naturally see them selves as superior.

Hate to point this out: Humans think almost nothing of animals they kill for food/sport this is mindset that leads to genocide

Animal propaganda is used for many human genocides

Not like we ever talked to an elder dragon to figure out there mind set or what drives them and probably never will.
