Confused by all the choices? Don't have time to read all the gory details about each candidate? Annoyed by campaign pages that take too long to load? Here's a quick guide to the candidates to help you make your choice.

Marv and Gw7en

• Tried to bribe voters with free coffee at a neutral public place.
• Implicated in a brownie scandal, but later cleared.
• Other than the brownie bit, not very active in the campaign.

Demon Drawer and Joanna

• Was supposedly poisoned, but recovered. Was it really poison? Or just an attempt to gain sympathy?
• One of their campaigners kidnapped and abused an innocent cat.
• They never got around to supplying a picture for the Rogue's Gallery until voting had started.
• The prez candidate has been active in the campaign, seemingly trying to win by outposting everyone.

Peregrin and Bluebottle

• Spent most of their time offering strange bribes like curried lampposts.
• Peregrin is also fairly active in the campaign, but spent a lot of the early time complaining that one of the candidates didn't really exist.
• Campaign pages are cluttered with annoying balloons that make the page hard to load and harder to read.

The Cheese and Korn-Ball

• Involved in a serious bit of vandalism in a restaurant.
• Almost non-existent involvement in the campaign since it began.
• Vice Prez candidate couldn't be bothered to supply a photo.

Don Alfredo and Don Vito

• A bit of involvement early in the campaign, but then strangely silent.
• Says "I like to do things the Italian way." What about everyone else?

Eomando and Captain Al Boy

• They look good in their picture, but will they do anything in office?
• Eomando has been mildly involved in the campaign and is a good dancer, but Captain Al Boy has been absent.

The Celery and Ms Dolores A.Webjello

• The only candidates to actually reside at h2g2 -- they're creations, not researchers!
• Threw the biggest party in the campaign -- over 500 posts the first 24 hours, two dance floors, gourmet formal dinner, press conference and more!
• Created the Celery's Fish Sanctuary and Playground -- an active and wonderful place for h2g2 fish to swim safely, fitting in with the Celery's aim to protect and support h2g2 creations.
• Very active campaign, involved in all areas of h2g2 life.
• Instrumental in helping bring about the Bruce Monument.
• Plans to create a Strawberry Fields park for Beatles fans.
• Plans to have an open Virtual Prez Home that everyone can visit.
• Has published numerous articles in the Post, showing a strong ability to meet the requirements of office.

Baldrick and Fashion Cat

• Claims to have a cunning plan, but that mostly seems to consist of deciding not to have any staff.
• Claims that they'll have a lot of parties during the election, but none have materialised.

Insane Endeavour and Ming

• Didn't bother to submit a campaign statement for the Post.
• They have a sofa.

The Big C and Njan

• Isn't.

• No picture.

The Masque of the Red Rejection Email and RedFish

• Actually running for Dictator, not Virtual Prez, so your vote would be wasted here.
