Good day my lovely and fashionable Ximbos.
It's less than two weeks from Prime B(X)imbo elections. They are taking place on February 1st.
I know some already have posted their manifests/campaignes in separate threads.
The links to them :
-SweetasNuts manifest
-halobear8 campaigne
Yet again thank you to LillyAnn for allowing me using her material❤︎₊ ⊹
She has put together everything there is to know about PB role in such detail that it would be a waste not to use it again.
Good luck to everyone who takes part!
Love, Blecky ˚ʚ♡ɞ˚

Info for SMs
If you are interested in running in this elections there are a couple of things to consider:
1) In order to run, you have to be a State Minister which also means a paying senator (no artifacts)
2) You have to write a program and click the check box to confirm you are participating
3) Your program is visible for the public eyes from the January 15th until the election day
4) Of course, you can add or edit your program later as well, but keep in mind that you won't be able to make any changes during the last 6 hours prior to elections. It also means you can't apply during that time if you haven't already nor to cancel your participation if you have already applied. Timing is based on BL clock of course.
5) If you get elected as PB you will have to be a paying senator during the whole term - 4 months
6) If your senatorship gets canceled for one or another reason, you are losing PB status within 7 days and Ximboland is going to be without PB until the next elections. During these 7 days you can renew your senatorship and continue to be PB. (I have the pic that only shows what happens with SM if sub runs out, but technically it's the same)
7) This time, only SMs are eligible to participate in PB elections. Fortunately all SMs are active and we have all 6 of them.
Each candidate is welcomed to post their program/campaign here in order for the citizens to get acquitted with it. Everyone is welcome to ask questions to the candidates. Remember to be respectful of each other and keep the discussion peaceful.8) As PB you are also expected to be active and available both for your citizens, other PH members and Team President as well as to do duties that come with the title.
9) Bear in mind that being PB is in some way similar to being SM but at the same time quite different. Your responsibilities as PB are way much bigger and you are supposed and expected to take care of a lot more issues. Sometimes unpredictable things arise and dealing with them is mostly on you most of the time. Quite often it expects a lot of time dedicated to the game on a daily basis (like 10+ hours per day) and sometimes it may last for days.
Beside time, it also requires investing money as well.
10) Point 9. ^^ is not meant to discourage anyone from running, this is just how it is. Of course, how much time, energy, money, etc. you are ready to commit is still in your discretion but I hope everyone agrees PB should be active and available as much as possible. At the end of the day, you are the one who chose to take on that role. More permissions and deciding freedom are always followed with bigger responsibilities and greater investment of your own resources and capacities.
11) While participating in election is not mandatory, it is welcome to have more candidates. That is the point of election after all - having a choice. Yet it is still Ok if you just want to continue being SM or to skip election if you think you won't have enough of time and/or money to invest into it this time.
(If you need more info on these topics you can talk to me or some previous PBs. Here are listed basic and most important points.)
Tools that goes with PB role:
- All that goes with SM and FP roles, except some additions and exceptions
1. As PB you are able to jail any citizen for max a month of time
2. You don't receive messages from Bimbo Mailman when citizens from your state or any other state get reported but you have an insight in all reports
3. You are able to make pop-up posts in more forum sections
4. You can ban accounts
5. Same as SMs, you are able to gift any citizen :) It's basically the same - you can share gifts for posts/entries in Fashion & Forum contests and your state Town Halls, including 20 last threads in total. Keep in mind that prizes currency are diamonds only. It means, even if you decide to gift ticket or a chest, you need to pay for it in diamonds.
6. You can appoint and dismiss Ministers or Government - MoJ and MoFA, and FP members
7. Organize craze - picking bonuses, choose dates and time-frame, etc.
8. Appoint PBFC theme and chose how are you going to handle it.
Info for all citizens
