For the sake of a relative newbie such as myself, would anybody care to summarise the GirlGoneWild 'scandal'?

From what I gather, Akno got a friend of his to register on the forum, register to vote, then vote for Flyers/Tweed despite not really knowing/caring about fantasy politics.  Is that more or less right?

no, ggw was made up by flyers, who is not tweed.

I know what I did was wrong, but this is a witchunt.  I feel this is a gross distortion of Akno's involvment in PhillyGate.  This is a power grab by the AFRNC.  My political career is ruined, but to ruin someone else's because they are in the same party and the fact he was my campaign manager is preposterous.

He lied about it. That's the problem.

No.  Irish Democrat/Flyers created a fake account known as GirlGoneWild, in order to have an extra vote in his race against Supersoulty.  What you refer to is Tomatosouping, which is not technically illegal.  And Tweed and Irish Dem are two different people.

It's the truth.  Why you continue to try and shift blame onto others is beyond me?

In some ways, you're worse than Akno in this situation.

Can any of you honestly claim that you have known of something in the past, that you knew was wrong, but kept quite anyway.

May he who has committed no sin cast the first stone.  I feel sorry that Akno has to pay, so dearly for something that I am certain we have all done countless times.

I have not lied about a member creating a voter so that he can win an election against you "countless times."

This is now the most ridiculous post in the history of the Atlasian Fantasy Forum.

I know I haven't committed anything like Akno and IrishDem have and I doubt anyone else has either.

Why you choose to blame everyone else is beyond my understanding.

Phil sounds like Joe Scarborough on that tape, interrogating some UN person.

I knew Phil, and possibly others, had a potentially damaging tape on me. That is why I have been cordial to him the past few weeks. To be honest, I feel better now, I can act freer, I'm not running for anything, I'm not running anything, I can criticize people freely...as I just did above.

I don't intend to go away, though I don't intend to run for office. I'll just be a part of Atlasia. In a way it's good, since sometimes I don't feel I'm up to the intellectual level of the Senate set by Gabu and John Ford and Super. If you guys want to hate me, fine, you have every right to, I lied, bottom line.

You know, the interesting thing is, this is Phil's biggest accomplishment. He dug out the truth. If there's ever a CSI Philly, he's your guy. (I'll give him credit for sticking out 4 months as VP)

If there is one thing we can all learn, it is that no matter how safe a secret may seem, it never is really secret.

I knew you were a fake to me these past weeks. I knew it all along. I now have the tapes out. Now I feel free.

Wow, um, let's see...I think there's another slightly different lesson we can learn here...

I mean deep, life lessons, outside of the obvious cheating is bad, and so is Akno.

GirlGoneWildGate was funny. What's wrong with a little voter fraud?

If you're not blaming everyone else, what does this quote here mean?

Quote
You must be logged in to read this quote.

That what Jesus said to the woman who had committed adultery.  He responded that way because he said that we had all committed adultery in our hearts.

It has never passed through my mind to do what Akno and IrishDem do.  Nor has anyone else I know at this forum either.

I can sure as hell cast stones, cause I ain't committed no crimes and have no intention of doing so.

You were right to come out with these recordings. Anyway, I still can and plan to enjoy Atlasia without running for office.

Now Phillip, I was wrong.  However, it seems like KeystonePhil is severely overzealous and got very Scarbourough-like with me regarding Akno.  There is a crime with a matching punishment.  I am no longer in Fantasy politics as a result.  I would like to run for office again and never do anything like this, but I know that will not happen.  

I feel Keystone's inquisition of me is for his political gain however.  As wrong as I am, one should question Keystone Phil in all of this as well.

Well, for you it was more a matter of personal vindication than pure quest for the truth, but I suppose I'm not the one to lead an ethics crusade against you. Anyway, kudos on bringing it to light, I didn't have the tapes.

Okay everyone what I am about to say is deep and it could throw your Atlasian life for a loop....















































IT'S ONLY A GAME

AHH I feel better.

Now here's how it goes I don't think anyone should get on Akno's case too accessively. True he probably shouldn't be heading any organizations for awhile.

Though, this is what it comes down to at the human level. If a friend of your's lied would you out him or her?

I'm not saying what I'd do and I'm not defending voter fraud. Its just something to consider.

Political gain? Genius, I don't have any political plans for the immediate future.

By the way, what should I be questioned about? Stop whining about the fact that I wanted the truth.

got very Scarbourough-like with me regarding Akno.  

Also, stop using Akno's lines about Scarborough. If you really meant to use that, you'd know how to spell his name.
