[s-b] Make Your Vote Count!

["Roger Hicks" <pidgepot@xxxxxxxxx>]

Ballotday is almost upon us. As anyone who paid even the slightest bit
of attention is aware, the Knights who say B dominated last nweek.
Don't let your voice be drowned out by this secretive faction! Make
your vote count. Join the Conglomerate and give your allegiance. The
contract of the Conglomerate ensures equality for all its members,
while at the same time increasing their personal vote power through
the faction system. We welcome any player with open arms.
