LJ elections + fandom = SRS BIZNIZ!
As seen onclairvoyantwank...
LiveJournal is holding elections for a users' representative on the LJ Advisory Board. Among the candidates arejameth and legomymalfoy. There are other candidates, bugt these two have the most attention. Depending on who you talk to, jameth is a witty, widely read LJ celebrity/troll who kicks people when they're down, and legomymalfoy is a fannish member in good standing of LJ Abuse/Establishment Pig who left her fellow fen out to dry during Strikethrough.
This being LJ-related, there's wank. Sweet Mother of God, is there wank.
It starts with a post fromjameth about possible ballot-stuffing and rolls downhill from there. Accusations of jameth's newest campaign icon triggering seizures in epileptics (sorry, no links - the one I saw on metafandom has been locked down). Supporters of both candidates being called trolls (too many threads to link) and accusations of smear campaigns on both sides. The "sleeping giant" of fandom being awakened. Like the dragon!
By Monday,legomymalfoy was in the lead. But that's not enough bookshop, aka Aja. Because jameth is still a menace to LJ! So she encourages people to spam fannish LJ communities to get out the vote.
Not everyone agrees. Comments are deleted.jameth shows up, and Aja freezes the thread.
And what's a fandompopularity conest debate without Godwin's?
ETA: Someone blew their Humanity roll.
