Greetings Fellow Whyvillians!

Being senator of Whyville is a big job that I really do feel I could handle. I have officially been a Whyville citizen for three years now, and I am very proud, most people quit before this. It seems like I have been on Whyville every day since I've joined except for vacations, band camp, and when I am grounded from the computer for being on too long. (Oops!) My salary is 69, I've written for The Times, and I enjoy attending Whyville events, like Trivia Hour, though they always seem to be going on at my dinner time??? maybe once the time changes it will be better!

Now lets get to the ideas:

(1) Face part making at the Face Factory is a long process, especially when you want to shade and such. It is hard to finish making parts when you have time limits for the computer, like me. There should be a 'save as' button to save your work thus far and resume it later. You would have to resume making your part before Whyville's servers reboot at 12:03 both a.m. and p.m., that was they servers wouldn't get too cluttered with peoples face parts not fully done.

(2) Long ago, at Akbar's Face Mall when you pressed 'try on' it was truly like trying something on. You were able to take off/move around your face parts, therefore allowing you to really try something on. It was extremely worthwhile when it came to trying something on.

(3) I'm sure this idea has been proposed before, but it really is a good one- - a lottery! How is that educational, you ask? In order to obtain a ticket you must answer a series of questions. I think Whyville related questions would be wonderful for this. Not chat license questions or anything but questions about people, rooms, so on and so forth. Then, if you answer your question correctly there could be a machine, and you could pick out your own numbers, or have the machine draw for you. Clam prizes could range anywhere from 100-1,000, a lucky winner everyday! The 'card' itself would have to cost something as well. Also, if you remember around Christmas time there is a dreidel (spelling?) game in the trees at Whyville Square... it's a gambling game, much fun!

(4) Nobody likes the idea of giving up his or her plot, and it seems like everyone wants one (a plot that is). On Whyville, plot owners have always been able to have 'guests' stay at their house. The only up to that is the guest being able to go to the owners house without paying the cab fee. Plot owners should be able to invite other Whyville citizens to actually decorate and help build and paint the house. Kind of like sharing an apartment, only it's the whole house. If more people would share a house, Whyville may be able to get rid of a neighborhood or two. There should be a poll to see if citizens would be willing to give up their plots or not.

(5) Has anyone else noticed what game Whyville is missing? Chess! A game like checkers, tic tac toe, etc., that nerds like me enjoy playing! I always wondered why Whyville didn't include that game. I think I am a very dedicated person who could make some nice changes to our beloved Whyville. I hope you Whyvillian's really think this through, choosing a senator is a big deal.

Thanks for the support, you guys rule!
