Here are all the postings with regards to the sudden and unexpected withdrawal of one of the candidates for the post of *Virtual Mayor of London*!

Please note that these have just been *lifted* straight from various forums Any complaints with regards to content and language should be addressed to the relevant postee!

Well, I, for one, am CONCEEDING THE FIELD!

My good name has been tarnished, my reputation as a happy, care-free, joyous, spontanious, (and other good stuff) individual has been twisted and turned with the precision of a die-cutter's press!

Ah, woe is me!

From the day I got into this political nonsense! I can stand no more, and I have to say, as one of my illustrious predecessors said:
'You won't have Dick Nixon to kick around any more!'

Yes, I am DROPPING OUT of the mayorial race, to concentrate on running a WAGERING ESTABLISHMENT (beware of the killer clowns!) and casting my support behind the wonderful Fenchurch M. Mercury!

Vote Fenchurch!

By Wowbagger

Aww Baaaaaaronnnnnnn! You gotta be running for mayor! They'll pick on MEEEEEEEE if you go!

By monshari a.k.a. monsy

Baron, you cannot drop out of the race!!!! I forbid it!!! you must finish what you have started!!! Take it like a man!!! Besides that, it is in the contract that you signed...:
'You can check out anytime you like, but you can never leave"

By Merkin

Baron, you can't drop out now. I've already paid the assassins, and the florist is already picking lillies!!

By Marv the Grate

And we've prepared the most beutiful eulogy. We think we deserve a wake. Are you going to deny us this?

By Baron Shatturday

You don't understand!

I've had some of my dearest dreams HECKLED and RIDICULED!

My love for animals (make the pork well-done, please!) expressed in my P.E.T.A. (People Eating the Animals) forum TAKEN OUT OF CONTEXT and used to IMPLY CANNIBALISIM!

Just because one is a psycho-clown, who had dreams of world-conquest via addicting the plebes to crack, and enjoys a bit of venison every now and again, is NO REASON to accuse someone of something as uncivilized as cannibalisim!

I have had assassins sent after me! Right beneath the AMNESTY INTERNATIONAL BANNER! Egads! Thats' like having sex on the Pope's altar in Rome!

It just ISN'T DONE!

I've seen the LOWEST BARBARISIMS of human spirit in this political game!

Yes, NEGATIVE CAMPAIGN ads have leeched at not only MY reputation, but the reputations of EVERY individual who has entered this business!

WOE! THE HUMANITY!

I've run into deranged idealists like Icky- who seems to find my very EXISTANCE as a clown, a joker, a jester if you will- somehow OFFENSIVE to him!

So it's back to scaring little children, taking the occasional bet, and seducing the ladies for me!

Just think!That goldfish could have bought you a NEW CAR!

Fairly Strange

Baron... you MUST stay in the race... you are the only other candidate who takes this position as seriously as I do. Geeesh... think of all the potential monetary gain possible. Beats the betting racket!... Welllll... Come to think of it...

you may be on to something!!!

How much could an assistant make?

Icarus

It's not the jesting.

It's the Zombie Mimes and the Crack.

Baron Shatturday

Nay! Nevermore!

You're a HARSH MAN, Icarus, to pick on us poor psycho-clowns the way you do!

But, as I noted in another forum, I'm outta this rat-race!

The madness of POWER no longer appeals to me!

I yearn for days of INNOCENCE, scaring the random little kid on the street! Giving old folks apoplexy, in a nice quiet atmosphere!

The strain of this HORRID HATE directed towards a SIMPLE CLOWN who wants to RULE THE WORLD by getting all the plebes ADDICTED has taken it's toll!

I hope you're satisfied, Icky! Look what you've done!

You've BROKEN MY HEART! BROKEN MY SPIRIT!
'Even though your heart is breaking,

Laugh, clown, laugh!'

A goldfish in every pocket!

Icarus

Don't try to play on my sympathies.

Baron Shatturday

Just think, ever since I was a little boy- I wanted to grow-up to be a clown! Not just any clown, but a PSYCHO CLOWN who RULED THE WORLD WITH AN IRON FIST by keeping the population ADDICTED!

And what do I find when I try to make my dreams come true?

HATE! CONFLICT! WAR!

Here I sit, a simple clown who wanted no more than to spend a quiet life scaring little children and terrorizing the masses, SIDELINED in the prime of my ambition by those who can't see my VISION!

Oh, cruel fate! CRUEL FATE!

I HAD to enter this world of politics, where cold-blooded souls like Icky feed on the dreams and ambitions of a clown! Where all the cute nose-honking, whip-lashings, and debauched orgies a gentleman clown can muster are met with disdain, NAY! OUTRIGHT HOSTILITY by that humourless monster in human form, Icky!

Well, Icky, I hope you're satisfied!

You'll be sorry when you try to spend that goldfish now!

Shorty

My god Baron, are you an actor???...

Could you ham it up anymore, I almost feel sorry for ya

ShazzPRME:-)

This is indeed a sad day!!

I feel obliged to devote an entire page to this sorry saga

... PS... please return the Mayorial robes and chain of office Baron... how can we install the next Mayor without them!!
