SWAT Leadership Election Results

After days of campaigning and voting and a day of counting and verifying each and every vote, the results of the election has been confirmed, the votes have been verified and its time for a new era of SWAT to come into fruition. Who won though? Let’s find out

Throughout the week, those elected have been campaigning for votes, writing speeches, recruiting, creating a buzz in the general chat, asking for votes etc. The speeches were different but empowering, they helped engage the swat community further while letting each person know what everyone’s goals were and what they would do. These speeches are definitely a throwback to the old times in armies, the elections, the speeches, the site votes…all of it. However, this is the new age and a new set of leaders are going to be introduced so it’s a unique election.

During the end of the voting periods there was clear winners and losers with 1 person being right at the top and everyone else being way behind. However, all counts had to be verified so couldn’t be taken at face value. Now that they have been, I can say that there was no “clear” winner, it was a very close race. I wont say there are any winners in this election, only new leaders. The places don’t matter because of how close the votes were. However, the 3 leaders joining are clear. These 3 people have been working hard to try and gain leader, some longer than others. However, that doesn’t make any of them less deserving, the army has voted for these people to be in this position and now they shall lead the army into a new age.

The first person to gain leader is Rye Bread. They joined swat in June/July of this year and have been wanting create something different, something more unique to spice things up while wanting to grow the army further not just as an army but as a community. TLDR(?) rye bread got leader and wants to bring fun and glory to SWAT.


The next person is Toxic Storm. They have had multiple stints within swat but never gave up on their goals, they wanted to reach a place within SWAT and create an army to be proud of while wanting to create stronger relations with troops and vets, rewarding both kinds of community members for their services to SWAT.


The third and final person is Pandor. They joined SWAT more recently than the above 2, however, since coming in they have proved their hunger and desire for the role. They plan to create a bigger and better recruiting division while expanding our networks and relations.

These 3 people are completely different leaders and people. They have different ideas, different ideals and different experiences. However, as leaders they will come together to work together for the same goal, to take SWAT to new heights, to make even more changes to improve SWAT further. Let’s make sure to support these people and to help them in their quest to make SWAT bigger and better than ever before!

SWAT Speeches | Krill’s Leadership Campaign

(Summary and TL;DR at the end of this post. This post is referenced with an anecdote as the first paragraph.)

On 1st of August, 1966, the first concept of SWAT (in-real-life) was applied as the Special Weapons and Tactics team. This was established under Paulding, a county in Texas. But hey, it is 2022! We might have gone 56 years back, that’s crazy. Well, 56 thousand years back you could have seen penguins in the Ice Age. One of those penguins could be one of you living today. Though penguins didn’t practically exist during the Ice Age, we all can imagine penguins wearing a green-black attire.

I am Krill 300 (or Krill, or Fun X Time), we’re in Club Penguin, in a colossal event. Here, at SWAT, we promote events and recruit. To satisfaction, we are greatly improving our points in the orb sky. Now, expanding from events, competitions, divisions and game nights let us make a pathway to dive into several more advanced concepts to implement in SWAT. But hold up, let me introduce myself! I told you my name already, but who am I? I am just a mammoth living on the mammoth server we took over this year in July. It is 56022 BC and I am currently a Leader-in-Training in SWAT. This is a message you are reading which is basically an election speech. If you assent with my election speech, you may definitely go through voting for me! You will always find me wishing a good morning, a good afternoon, a good evening, or a good night. Or, in a conversation! I hope you are having a good day. Let us now dive into the real election speech.

Firstly, attending events are your first priority. Creating an account on CPAB is not very much complicated, is it? Need help? Don’t worry, don’t hesitate, I am very much approachable to help you out. DM me freely and I will never feel disturbed. Here is my discord: Fun X Time#0533. Whether we have transformed into ice age mammoths to capture Mammoth server (which we have!) or 56-year-old apes with a huge ape-tight (*appetite), you will always find me the first to read, consider and acknowledge your query.

Secondly, a great contribution should be acquired by as many agents in SWAT as possible. I aim to host frequent recruiting competitions to prevent the graphs from staying static or moving to a negative direction. Afterall, events cannot work without you and your friends in SWAT! But obtaining higher maxes are, and should be, treated seriously and as equally as the tactics we perform. Therefore, recruiting even if there is no competition around would be a great help and we would appreciate it. Don’t worry, you’ll definetely obtain rewards, mostly like what you may or may not have ever got before: Discord Bot Rewards, Discord Nitro, Big Promotions, and perhaps a lot more.

Thirdly, I’d like to introduce certain features I would try to introduce. In 2020, one of the conversations I was gossiping in came up to be about me being a leader one day in SWAT: a suggestion appears in my mind. How ‘bout introducing custom divisions? You can create your own! Obviously, this powerful feature should be slightly more limited to a particular rank and certain activity status. Another feature applied could be organization of roles. Roles are organized but can be improved. Powering up the auto-moderation system is also a good step, it would be set up in such a way to make sure auto-moderation system cannot be bypassed and made more secure and accurate, so it doesn’t delete the things it shouldn’t! Suggestions will not be neglected and I will try my level best to satisfy you. Anything you want me to implement, please directly message me right now if you have even a silly question, I will kindly answer it. Suggestions will be looked at carefully.

Lastly, a humble appeal to all SWAT citizens and helpers out there: let us all take a responsibility to rise our family together. It is Ice Age, there is only one world and one family. The only solution to atop SWAT amongst several other unknown continental kingdoms out there is not to be completely taken under my control. You are also a leader of your own. You are a leader of SWAT yourself, and any SWAT citizen who you sight in day-to-day lives is also equals: they’re also a SWAT leader. Let us treat each other with respect. Let us all take a pledge to make the Ice Age preserved and remembered. If we contribute to events and assist recruiting, a day will definitely arrive when the ice melts and the mammoth stuck in our iced souls is finally set free.

– One of the mammoths who outlived Ice Age,
Krill 300 (Fun X Time).

Short summary/TL;DR: An election speech anecdote about SWAT in Ice Age. This election speech endorses Krill 300’s first campaigning. Suggestions of features Krill may imply after being elected include Custom Divisions (with limitations, of course), Discord Server Organization (roles, channels, etc.), Improved auto-moderation (to make safer and accurate), more recruiting competitions (with better/more rewards), and a lot more. Suggestions sent to the suggestion channel may also be implemented by Krill if possible and permittable. A patriotic note and pledge regarding how SWAT may improve by simply attending events, recruiting new agents and being community and how we may continue evolving further to keep our tusks movin’.

SWAT Speeches | Ryebread’s Leadership Campaign

Dearest SWAT, For the longest time, the Special Weapons And Tactics have had a special place in my heart. I’ve made great friends here, new or old, and lots of memories. I love all the current staff, all our vets, and troops. I intend to bring equality and respect amongst all of you, to be proud of the army I’m a part of. SWAT has one of the deepest and richest histories, and I’m truly honored to potentially be a leader here. Before writing this I’ll warn you that this may be long. If it is, there’s a TL;DR at the end 😛

Based on the recent events involving SWAT, anyone can recognize that there are changes to be made. I won’t go into specifics but in the end, SWAT needs to be refreshed. I wish to be as honest and open as I can as a leader, listen to my troops, but more importantly listen to my staff, vets and legends. YOU are the reason we exist, you are the ones who drive me to be the person I want to be in SWAT. You are the people who make me proud to be in this army and the people that motivate me to keep coming back. I will admit, that there are times I was ignorant, or gullible, but I can’t be that anymore. I won’t be that anymore.

From this moment on there will be changes made to the server’s events, look, and moderation. I want there to be more opportunities for the people who may not have access to CPAB, hosting more personal events, non-CP related, like movies or karaoke or game nights. I want people to come to SWAT because they feel like it and want to talk to the people in it, not because they felt the need to for whatever reason. I want people to use the channels we have; post their pets, their haha funny memes, use the economy system we have, and give suggestions that they genuinely feel would help the server! I want people to learn and be confident in recruiting, mentoring, hyping, and even hosting. I don’t want anyone to be scared of bigger tasks like recruiting. I feel that everyone is capable of doing great things in SWAT.

With me as a leader, there won’t be any hesitation when it comes to moderation in our server and CP events. No one should hesitate to DM me if a fellow member is harassing them in any way, or if they see someone else breaking rules. Again, my main goal is equality, and respect for all. In our Club Penguin events, I intend to have a clear rundown on what to do, and what not to do. These events are very serious for our army, and we must stay focused and not fall behind if we want to bring glory to the SWATRulers 😉. Similar to what Toxic Storm said in his speech, I intend for us to have more rewards for troops who deserve to be rewarded for their hard work. I want there to be more opportunity for everyone, and more growth for the community as a whole. I don’t want SWAT to survive, I want SWAT to LIVE!

So, here’s the TL;DR: SWAT will thrive, but only if you’re DETERMINED. With new leadership, one can only hope for the best, and that is what I promise to do… the BEST I can possibly do! There will be more creative opportunities, there will be more fun and positivity, and there will be more equality and respect. I hope that by reading this, it fills you with DETERMINATION! YEAHHHH!! GLORY TO SWAT!! Anyways I’m out, peace dawg. #RYE4LEADER

Sincerely, rye (ouigi) :blackheart:
